What is a safety hammer used for?
1 Answers
It is mainly used to smash glass for escape in emergency situations such as fires or car submersion, with the blade at the end of the handle used to cut seat belts for escape. Currently, bus window glass is generally made of high-hardness and high-strength organic glass, which is difficult to break with fists or feet, making it hard for passengers to break the window for escape in emergencies. Therefore, modern buses, especially air-conditioned ones, are usually equipped with 4 to 6 safety hammers on both sides of the compartment. The striking position for the safety hammer is the four corners of the window glass. Below is an introduction to safety hammers: 1. Design concept of safety hammers: The pull-handle safety hammer combines the interior safety pull-handle and escape hammer in its design. In an emergency, pressing a button releases the handle, allowing it to be used as a safety hammer, making it quicker to break the window and increasing the chances of escape. 2. How to operate a safety hammer: Pick up the safety hammer and strike the four corners of the tempered glass, avoiding the center as it is the strongest part. Since some glass has film, it may not fall off immediately after breaking; you can kick it open. Once the glass falls off, exit the vehicle body promptly and in an orderly manner, moving to a safe location.
