  • Patent number: 10242594
    Abstract: A vehicle extrication door system that is a training simulator used to simulate opening the door of a vehicle that has been involved in an accident. The system comprises two supports, two consumable pieces, a first connector, and a compound hinge. Each support can have a proximate end, a distal end, an interior surface and an exterior surface, and each consumable piece can have an opening. The proximate end of the first support supports the first consumable piece, and the proximate end of the second support supports the second consumable piece. The opening of the first consumable piece aligns with the opening of the second consumable piece on the same horizontal axis and the first connector then passes through the openings of the consumable pieces and secures the first consumable piece to the second consumable piece. The first support is moveable between an open and a closed position.
