摘要:
A device (10) for non-impact stopping of a wheeled vehicle includes a net structure formed from flexible elements (2) extending in a first direction interconnected with flexible elements (3) extending in a second direction, non-parallel to the first direction. Tire-penetrating elements (12) are mechanically linked to the net structure. At least part of the net structure is formed from tear-webbing deployed so as to irreversibly absorb energy applied to deform the net structure. Most preferably, at least part of each of the flexible elements (2, 3) extending in one or both of the first and second directions is formed from tear-webbing.
摘要:
An escape system (100,130,150,176,272,294) for moving a person on a cord (106,136,154,178,258,276) on the exterior of a building (108,188). The building has a first surface (116) and a second surface (118). The first surface and the second surface are substantially perpendicular to each other. The system comprises a control device (102,132) for controlling the movement of the person on the cord and an anchoring device (104,152,180,300) for reversibly mechanically attaching the control device to the building. The control device is substantially irreversibly mechanically connected to the anchoring device. The anchoring device has a first elongated element (110) and a second elongated (112) element. The first elongated is mechanically connected to the second elongated element. The first elongated element and the second elongated element are configured such that, the first elongated element at least partially rests against the first surface of the building and the second elongated element at least partially rests against the second surface of the building.
