CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This patent application is a national-stage application of International Patent Application No. PCT/KR2016/013083 filed on Nov. 14, 2016, which claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119 to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2016-0018794, filed on Feb. 17, 2016, in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a disaster-proof home, and more specifically, to disaster-proof home, which is used as a house for daily life, but upon a disaster, e.g., earthquake, tornado, typhoon, strong wind, flood, and fire, is moved to underground or moved up to be separated from ground depending on the disaster situation to promote safety of residents and to prevent damage to houses and human injuries caused by disasters.

DISCUSSION OF RELATED ART

Generally, houses are buildings built for people to live in. After the foundation work is done with, etc. concrete, on the building site, the frame and interior and exterior materials are built on it.

Recently, due to a rapid climate change, natural disasters are occurring more frequently, and accordingly, it is increasing need for functional housing that may protect against disasters.

With regard to disaster protection, Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2013-2199 discloses an air shelter that may be used as a hot water bath box in daily life and may be used as an evacuation shelter in the event of disasters. Further, Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2013-83136 discloses a disaster prevention cabin which may prevent the collapse of houses.

However, there is a problem that such a protection facility is formed as a separate structure inside or outside a house so that when a disaster occurs, residents should move to the protection facility. Accordingly, it is not only difficult to cope with rapid climate change, but there also is a significant risk of an accident upon movement because the residents must evacuate while a disaster occurs.

Meanwhile, if additional disaster protection facilities are installed inside houses, the entire house may not be protected from disasters. If houses are damaged due to disasters, secondary accidents may be caused.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EXEMPLARY EMBODIMENTS

Hereinafter, referring to the accompanying drawings, embodiments of the present invention will be described to be easily performed by those of ordinary skill in the art.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view illustrating a disaster-proof home according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a front view illustrating a disaster-proof home according to an embodiment of the present invention.

FIGS. 1 and 2 illustrates a state of a typical house 100 without a disaster, which is exposed above a ground surface 10. In other words, a base plate 130 positioned under the house 100 is supported by a lifting frame 320 of a lift 300 to maintain the entire house 100 to be exposed above the ground surface 10.

The house 100 is designed to enable people to live inside the house 100. A roof 110 having a gentle curved shape is formed on an upper portion of the house 100, and a rectangular outer wall body 120 protruding downward is formed around a lower portion of the roof 110. A lower portion of the outer wall body 120 is closed with the base plate 130.

The roof 110 may be formed of a metal such as a steel. Further, a step hole 114 is formed in a rectangular shape around a lower portion of the roof 110. The step hole 114 is inserted into a protrusion 180 protruded to correspond to the position of the step hole 114 in the ground surface 10 (see FIG. 7).

The outer wall body 120 has a rectangular or square cross section, and a residential space 102 is formed in which a person may live. In daily life, the residents may live in the residential space 102. Each H beam is built at each outer corner of the outer wall body 120, and thus, the strength of the outer wall body 120 may be reinforced.

A water tank 140 is provided in an inner center of the base plate 130. A space of the water tank 140 is partitioned, and thus drinking water or living water is stored therein (see FIG. 3). A valve is provided under the water tank 140 to discharge water stored in the water tank 140 to a septic tank 150.

The septic tank 150 is installed on a bottom wall 220 of a protection wall 200 to be described below. The septic tank 150 is connected to the water tank 140 through a stretching pipe 154, which is wrinkled over its entire length to be expanded and contracted in length. Further, the septic tank 150 may discharge sewage to the outside through a pipe 152. The pipe 152 is embedded in the ground surface 10 and connected to the septic tank 150. One end of the pipe 152 is connected to the septic tank 150, and the other end is exposed above the ground surface 10 to be opened and closed with a cap.

Meanwhile, the septic tank 150 may also be provided with a separate gas discharge pipe for discharging the harmful gas generated therein to the outside.

As shown in FIG. 2, the water tank 140 and the septic tank 150 are connected to each other in a state in which the stretching pipe 154 is unfolded while being exposed above the ground surface 10 of the house 100 in daily lives without a disaster.

A drain pump 160 is installed to be spaced apart from the septic tank 150 at the bottom wall 220 of the protection wall 200. When inside of the protection wall 200 is filled with water due to rain or snow, the drain pump 160 plays a role of discharging the water to the outside through a drain pipe 162. The drain pump 160 is connected to a generator 170 to receive power and the controller for operating the drain pump 160 may be located inside the residential space 102 of the house 100. Herein, the drain pipe 162 is embedded in the ground surface 10 and connected to the drain pump 160. That is, one end of the drain pipe 162 is connected to the drain pump 160 and the other end is exposed above the ground surface 10.

Meanwhile, the generator 170 embedded in the ground 10 is installed beside a vertical wall 210 of the protection wall 200. The generator 170 is an apparatus capable of producing electricity in an emergency, and may generate electricity by power generation using an engine driven by an internal combustion engine. The generator 170 is equipped with a rechargeable battery. A battery always maintains a charged state.

The generator 170 is connected to the house 100 and the lift 300 by a connection line 172 to serve to supply electricity. The connection line 172 is connected to a system power 20 to supply commercial power to the house 100 and the lift 300 and to supply electricity to the house 100 and the lift 300 through the generator 170 when the commercial power is cut off. Meanwhile, when it is difficult to operate the generator 170, electricity may be supplied to the house and the lift 300 by a battery.

The protrusion 180 is formed in a rectangular shape protruding from the ground surface 10 and may be formed of concrete. The protrusion 180 is coupled with the step hole 114 formed in a lower portion of the roof 110 when the house 100 is descended to an evacuation space 230 by the 300 (see FIG. 7).

The step hole 114 is coupled with the protrusion 180, thereby preventing water or foreign substance from entering the evacuation space 230. Further, the roof 110 may be firmly attached to the ground surface 10 due to coupling the step hole 114 and the protrusion 180. Although a strong wind is applied to the house 100, the influence on the roof 110 is minimized.

The protection wall 200 is embedded under the ground surface 10 in a box shape with an open upper part. The protection wall 200 has a plurality of vertically erected vertical walls 210 formed in a rectangular or square shape. A lower end of the vertical wall 210 is closed with the bottom wall 220. Herein, the vertical wall 210 and the bottom wall 220 are integrally formed. Further, the evacuation space 230 having a volume larger than one of the house 100 is formed inside the protection wall 200.

The vertical wall 210 and the bottom wall 220 are formed of concrete with a built-in frame, and may be formed of ultra-high-performance concrete. The house 100 may be lowered into the evacuation space 230 by the lift 300 to be described later upon occurrence of a disaster.

The protection wall 200 divides the house 100 located in the evacuation space 230 and the ground surface 10 to prevent water or foreign matter from flowing into the evacuation space 230 and to protect the house 100 located in the evacuation space 230 from strong winds or earthquakes.

The protection wall 200 is formed in a rectangular or square shape as viewed from above. A vibration reducer 240 is equipped on each vertical wall 210. The vertical wall 210 is provided with a fixing hole 212 for equipping a vibration reducer 240, and the vibration reducer 240 is provided in the fixing hole 212. Herein, the fixing hole 212 is formed to be penetrated at the center of each vertical wall 210. The vibration reducer 240 has a shape in which one side is inserted and constrained to the fixing hole 212 and the other side is protruded toward the outer wall body 120 of the house 100.

A rectangular support fixing hole 250 in which a support 310 of the lift 300 to be described below may be installed is vertically formed on the vertical wall 210. A plurality of support fixing holes 250 are formed in a number corresponding to the number of the supports 310, and the support base fixing hole 250 is positioned adjacent to each corner of the protection wall 200.

The lift 300 is installed in the evacuation space 230 of the protection wall 200, and thus the housing 100 may be raised or lowered if necessary and comprises a plurality of supports 310 respectively inserted vertically into the support fixing holes 250 formed on the vertical wall 210 of the protection wall 200 and a lifting frame 320 mounted on the support 310 to move up and down. In a method of fixing the support 310 to the support fixing hole 250, the support 310 may firmly be fixed to the support fixing hole 250 by pressfittingly coupling or the support 310 is erected and then the protection wall 200 and a support 310 together may be cured with concrete before the protection wall 200 is made of concrete.

The support 310 is inserted in each support fixing hole 250 in the evacuation space 230 to be arranged overall in a rectangular shape. A guide hole 312 is formed in each support 310 to allow a guide 322 of a lifting frame 320 to be inserted in the guide hole 312 and thus a lifting frame 320 is vertically reciprocated.

The base plate 130 of the house 100 is located above the lifting frame 320. The lifting fame 320 supports the base plate 130.

The lift 300 is connected to the system power 20 or connected to the generator 170 through the connection line 172 to receive power. A driving motor for lifting or lowering the lifting frame 320 is installed on each support 310. The driving motor provided on each support 310 simultaneously rotates in the forward and reverse directions to lift or lower the housing 100 while keeping the lining frame 320 horizontal.

Meanwhile, the lift 300 is provided with a controller for moving up or down control. A controller is installed inside the housing 100.

The housing 100 is normally placed on the ground 10. In this case, the lifting frame 320 is raised to be positioned in an uppermost end of the support 310. When a user recognizes occurrence of a natural disaster, such as an earthquake, strong wind, or tornado, the user operates a controller to lower the house 100 into the evacuation space 230 formed in the protection wall 200. In this case, the lifting, frame 320 is lowered toward the bottom wall 220 of the protection wall 200, and the house 100 is also lowered accordingly. The lifting frame descends to a height that is spaced apart from the septic tank 150 and the drain pump 160 installed in the bottom wall 220.

When the natural disaster situation is over, the user operates the controller again to raise the lifting frame 320 to place the house 100 on the ground surface 10.

Meanwhile, the support 300 is firmly inserted into a support fixing hole 250 and thus is inserted into the vertical wall 210 to be fixed therein so that even if the house 100 is lifted or lowered by the lifting frame 320 to sustain load.

FIG. 2 a front view illustrating a disaster-proof home to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view rating the house 100 and a buoyant body 400 of a disaster-proof home according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As described above, the housing 100 is formed with the roof 110 at an upper portion thereof, the outer wall body 120 at, a lower portion of the roof 110, and the base plate 130 at a lower portion of the outer wall body 120.

At least one hatch hole 112 for installing a hatch 190 may be formed on the roof 110. A hatch 190 is provided in a hatch hole 112 to be operable and closable. A hatch 190 serves as an emergency exit that allows a resident to escape to the outside through the roof 110 when an emergency occurs.

An inside edge of the outer wall body 120 is formed with a pipe guide hole 122 for guiding the movement of a multilevel pipe 500 to be described below. The pipe guide hole 122 is a hole crossing an inner edge of the outer wall body 120 to be formed in a shape corresponding to the multilevel pipe 500 with a hole crossing the inner edge of the outer wall body 120.

An upper end of a fixing pipe 540 of the multilevel pipe SOO is firmly fixed to an upper end of the pipe guide hole 122.

The base plate 130 has an inner hollow shape and the water tank 140 is installed at the center of the base plate 130. The water tank 140 is divided so that the space is separated, and thus drinking water and living water may be separately stored. An upper portion of the water tank 140 is sealed with a water tank cover 142.

Further, the buoyant body 400 is installed in the region excluding the water tank 140 inside the base plate 130. Further, the region excluding the water tank 140 in the base plate 130 is partitioned in a lattice-shape by a plurality of partition walls 134. Each of the partition walls 134 allows the base plate 130 to firmly bear load of the housing 100.

When the surrounding of the house 100 is submerged by the flood, the buoyant body 400 enables the house 100 to float above water by buoyancy, and thus serves to prevent damage to property and human life caused by flooding.

The buoyant member 400 is formed of, e.g., expanded polystyrene (EPS), foamed rubber, and Styrofoam. The buoyant body 400 is inserted into the base plate 130 of the house 100. Further, the buoyant body 400 is positioned over the entire area except an area of the water tank 140 in the base plate 130, and the shape thereof is also formed according to it. In other words, the buoyant body 400 is composed of several pieces corresponding to the lattice shape partitioned by the partition wall 134 in the base plate 130, and each is fixed by constrainedly coupling.

An upper portion of the base plate 130 is sealed by a base plate cover 132.

FIG. 2 is a front view illustrating a disaster-proof home according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 4 is a perspective view illustrating of the protection wall 200 of the disaster-proof home according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As described above, the protection wall 200 is formed in the shape of a square box with an open upper part to provide the evacuation space 230 therein.

The fixing hole 212 is penetrated and formed at the center of the vertical wall 210 constituting the protection wall 200, and the vibration reducer 240 is fixed to the fixing hole 212. One end of the vibration reducer 240 is formed in a shape corresponding to the fixing bole 212 and thus is firmly fixed to the fixing hole 212, and the other end is protruded toward an inside of the evacuation space 230. The vibration reducer 240 is formed of silicone or rubber material having elasticity.

As described above, the vertical wall 210 has a square or rectangular shape, and the support fixing hole 250 in which the support 310 of the lift 300 is vertically inserted and fixed, is formed to be caved at a position adjacent to each corner of the vertical wall 210. The support fixing hole 250 has a shape corresponding to cross-section of the support 310, and the support 310 is combined in a constrainedly coupling manner.

When the earthquake occurs in a state where the house 100 is located in the evacuation space 230 inside of the protection wall 200, the house 100 is irregularly swung back and forth and right and left, and the vibration reducer 240 serves to reduce such vibrations occurring in the house 100 while contacting the front, rear, left, and right sides of the house 100.

In other words, when the vibration reducer 240 having a protrusion shape is placed inside of the protection wall 200 of a house, the vibration reducer 240 protruding from each vertical wall 210 is projected to be adjacent to the outer wall body 120 of the house 100. Thus, when the house 100 is vibrated, the house 100 is connected to the vibration reducer 240, and the vibration reducer 240 reduces vibration of the house 100.

FIG. 2 is a front view illustrating a disaster-proof home according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG.5 is a perspective view illustrating the lift 300 and the multilevel pipe 500 of a disaster-proof home according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 6 is a plan view illustrating that the lift 300 and the multilevel pipe 500 are positioned inside the protection wall 200.

As described above, the lift 300 is installed in the evacuation space 230 of the protection wall. In other words, the lift 300 is firmly fixed to the bottom wall 220 of the protection wall 200.

The lift 300 is installed with a four-pillar type having four supports 310.

The support 310 is inserted into the support fixing hole 250 of the protection wall 200 to be vertically erected. The guide hole 312 is vertically formed on the support 310 so that the guide 322 of the lifting frame 320 is inserted into the guide hole 312, and thus the lifting frame 320 may be linearly reciprocated. Further, a cross section of the guide hole 312 may be formed in a T-shape.

The lifting frame 320 which is a rectangular frame is formed to correspond to the width of the base plate 130 of the house 100. The lifting frame 320 generally has a rectangular frame shape. The lifting frame 320 may be cut at the center thereof.

Each guide 322 having a shape corresponding to a cross section of the guide hole 312 protrudes outwardly from each corner of the lifting frame 320. Each guide 322 is provided in each guide hole 312.

A driving motor is provided below the support 310, and a driving means such as a chain is mounted in the guide hole 312 to lift or lower the lifting frame 320 in a balanced state by rotational force of the driving motor.

When the house 100 floats on the water due to buoyancy, the multilevel pipe 500 serves to fasten the housing 100 not to float in the water. The multilevel pipe 500 is fixed to the bottom wall 220 of the protection wall 200. The multilevel pipe 500 comprises a fixing pillar 510 as a base, a hollow pillar pipe 520 vertically installed to fix a lower end of the fixing pillar 510, a hollow lifting pillar pipe 530 having both ends opened to be able to move up and down on the pillar pipe 520, and a hollow fixing pipe 540 fixed to an upper end of the outer wall body 120 of the house 100.

The fixing pillar 510 is formed of concrete to serve as a base and are formed in four places to correspond to each corner of the outer wall body 120 of the house 100 on the bottom wall 220 of the protection wall 200. Further, a center of the lifting frame 320 is cut, and the fixing pillar 510 is positioned inside the lifting frame 320 not to interfere with the lifting frame 320.

The pillar pipe 520 is installed on the upper portion of the fixing pillar 510. A lower portion of the pillar pipe 520 is firmly fixed to the fixing pillar 510. The pillar pipe 520 is formed of a hollow metal pipe.

The lifting pipe 530 is inserted in the pillar pipe 520. Both ends of the lifting pipe 530 are opened and an inside of the lifting pipe 530 is hollow. The lifting 530 is also formed of a metal pipe. The lifting pipe 530 is fixed to the pillar pipe 520 by loose coupling. The lifting pipe 530 is guided by the pillar pipe 520 to be lifted up and down.

In the event of a flood, when the house 100 is floated by the buoyant body 400 to be separated from the ground surface 10, the lifting pipe 530 is unfolded, and when the house 100 descends into the evacuation space 230, the lifting pipe 530 is folded into the pillar pipe 520. Herein, the movement guide hole 312 is formed at an inner edge of the outer wall body 120 so that the pillar pipe 520 and the lifting pipe 530 are folded into the movement guide hole 312. Further, when the lifting pipe 530 is unfolded, it is guided to be unfolded by the movement guide hole 312.

An upper end of the fixing pipe 540 is fixed to an upper part of the outer wall body 120 of the house 100. When the house 100 is floated by the buoyant force, it is guided by the lifting pipe 530, and thus, the house 100 is spaced apart from the ground surface 10, and the fixing pipe 540 serves to prevent the house 100 from being swept away by the flood water.

FIG. 7 is a front view illustrating descent of a disaster-proof home according to an embodiment of the present invention.

When a strong wind 30 occurs in the vicinity of the house 100 due to a disaster such as a typhoon, a hurricane, a tornado, or a cyclone, a user who recognizes the strong wind 30 operates a controller of the lift 300 in the house 100, and thus may move the house 100 to the evacuation space 230 of the protection wall 200. The safety of residents may be secured by moving the house 100 into the evacuation space 230.

FIG. 7 illustrates a state in which the housing 100 is lowered into the evacuation space 230 by controlling the lift 300.

Since the lifting frame 320 of the lift 300 supports the base plate 130 of the house 100, the housing 100 is entered inside of the evacuation space 230 along descent of the lifting frame 320.

Further, when the house 100 is lowered into the evacuation space 230, only the roof 110 is exposed above the ground surface 10. Further, the step hole 114 formed around a lower portion of the roof 110 is coupled to the protrusion 180 formed on the ground surface 10. Thus, the roof 110 is firmly adhered to the ground surface 10. Since the roof 110 is formed in a streamlined shape, even if the strong wind 30 directly comes into contact with the roof 100, the strong wind moves without affecting the house 100.

Therefore, it is possible to prevent damage to the housing 100, property damage, and personal injury that may occur due to such a disaster.

After the disaster disappears and safety is secured, as illustrated in FIG. 2, by operating a controller, the house 100 may be lifted to be exposed above the ground surface 10 by the lift 300.

Meanwhile, if there is a problem with power supply while the house 100 is positioned in the evacuation space 230 or a sudden emergency occurs, residents may open the hatch 190 and escape through a hatch hole 112 onto the roof 110. Further, the hatch 190 is a circular plate and is openably and closably connected to the hatch hole 112, and is formed of the same material as the roof.

FIG. 8 is a front view illustrating vibration of the house 100 of a disaster-proof home according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Although a disaster such as an earthquake or a fire occurs, a user may operate a controller to move the house 100 to the escape space 230 formed in the protection wall 200 with the lift 300 to secure safety.

An earthquake may cause irregular shaking of the house 100. In other words, the house 100 may be swung back and forth, and right and left above the lifting frame 320.

Further, the vibration reducer 240 located on the vertical wall 210 of the protection wall 200 may absorb the impact of the vibration of the house 100. Since the vibration reducer 240 protrudes from each vertical wall 210 to be adjacent to the outer wall body 120 of the house 100 on daily life, when the house 100 vibrates due to an earthquake, the house 100 contacts the vibration reducer 240.

Since the vibration deceasing part 240 is formed of an elastic material, it absorbs the impact of the vibration of a house 100. Therefore, damage to the housing 100 may be reduced, and the impact on a user inside the house 100 may also be reduced.

FIG. 9 is a front view illustrating ascent of a disaster-proof home according to an embodiment of the present invention.

If a flood occurs, there is a risk that water 40 floods and a house is inundated with water. When the water 40 overflows the evacuation space 230 of the protection wall 200 due to the flood and comes up above an upper portion of the ground surface 10, the house 100 may float in the water 40 by buoyancy of the buoyant body 400 built in the base plate 130 of the house 100.

In other words, when the water 40 is flooded to overflow the house 100, the house 100 is floated on the water 40 by the buoyancy of the buoyant body 400 built in the base plate 130. Further, the house 100 does not ascend and descend by the lifting frame 320 of a lift 300, but floats on the water 40 by pure buoyant force of the buoyant body 400.

Further, since the buoyant body 400 is divided into a plurality of pieces in a lattice shape by the partition wall 134 in the base plate 130, when the house 100 is floated by the water 40, the partition wall 134 serves to disperse the load, and thus the buoyancy allows the house 100 to float on the water 40 smoothly.

Further, when a house 100 floats on the water 40, and there is a risk that the house 100 is swept away by the water flow of the water 40, the multilevel pipe 500 firmly fastens the house 100.

While a fixing pillar 510 of a multilevel pipe 500 is firmly fixed to a bottom of a bottom wall 220 of a protection wall 200, a pillar pipe 520 is positioned in an evacuation space 230 and a lifting pipe 530 is unfolded over a ground surface 10.

Further, the fixing pipe 540 inserted into the lifting pipe 530 is guided by the lifting pipe 530 and thus is lifted. Since an upper end of the fixing pipe 540 is fixed to the pipe guide hole 122 of the outer wall body 120, when the house 100 is lifted by the buoyant force, the multilevel pipe 500 is sequentially opened, and the plate 130 of the house 100 may be placed on the water 40 to be spaced apart from the paper surface 10.

Therefore, the flooding of the house 100 is prevented, and damage to property and human life due to flooding is prevented.

Meanwhile, a plurality of air cocks 124 are formed through an upper portion of the outer wall body 120 of the house 100. When the house 100 is lowered toward a ground surface 10 after the flood is over and the water 40 is lowered in water level, the air cock 124 serves, as a passage for allowing the air to pass through the house 100.
