Powerless Personal Fire Escape lift
Imagine a straightforward and effective way to evacuate high-rise buildings during emergencies, all without relying on electricity. At Versatile Machine Inc., we have developed a unique solution – a personal elevator-style system designed to carry individuals down the exterior of a building, accommodating one or two people at a time, without the need for any power source.
Tailored for high-rise structures, this innovative system is designed to occupy minimal space. In the event of a fire, occupants step onto a compact 60 square centimeter platform, release a brake, and gently descend to the floor below. Moving to the next platform, they repeat the process until they reach a place of safety.
The controlled descent is facilitated by the user’s own weight. Once an individual steps off the platform, it automatically ascends, ready for the next evacuee. This approach presents a secure and dependable evacuation solution, particularly beneficial for elderly residents and those with limited mobility who may face challenges with stairways. It is equally suitable for individuals carrying children and those with disabilities.
At Versatile Machine Inc., we deeply understand:
- The critical significance of a reliable emergency evacuation system.
- The essential requirement of lifts in all buildings, complying with building regulations and fire safety standards.
- The importance of regular maintenance for both evacuation systems and lifts.
Our emergency evacuation lift by Versatile offers a simple approach that holds the potential to save numerous lives. However, its effectiveness hinges on orderly evacuations, which can be complex in real emergencies when disorientation and smoke hinder people’s ability to respond.
