  • Patent number: 6789647
    Abstract: An escape mechanism for high-rise includes a safety rail and a safety facility. The safety facility is formed in a frame-like shape with an upper frame and a lower frame being constructed by two parallel short steel columns and fixedly connected together by thick steel plates. The upper frame and the lower frame are both movably and pivotally jointed by two parallel connecting rods connected with a transverse shaft, such that the upper frame and the lower frame may make relative movement in parallel with each other. In use, an escapee can be tied with a safety belt carrying a safety facility being sleeved into the safety rail, and scramble down by treading on the retractable pedals attached to the safety rail. In the event of an accidental stumble, the safety facility will be active immediately and thus prevent the escapee from further falling.

  • Patent number: 6729436
    Abstract: A safety device for a pylon includes an upper frame connected together with a lower frame, wherein both the upper frame and the lower frame includes two parallel steel pillars. fixedly connected together by a thick steel piece, the upper frame and the lower frame are connected through two parallel connecting rods to enable the upper frame and the lower frame to make relative motion. Two oblique safety grooves are respectively mounted on an inner side of the steel pillars and used for telescoping with specific-designed H-shaped safety rail. A connecting ring is mounted on the rear end of the safety device for providing the safety device to connect and slide with human body. In case of accident, the instantaneous force generated between the safety groove and the safety rail can stop the human body from falling and achieve the safeguard function.
