DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT A preferred embodiment of the escape tool of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. The escape tool 1 shown in FIG. 1 is configured so that it can be mounted on the instrument panel of the driver's seat of an automobile, like a cigarette lighter for automobiles. That is, in this embodiment, the escape tool 1 has a stick-shaped main body 2 in which one is formed into a knob and the other is formed into a plug, and the needle portion 3, the tooth portion 4, the electric storage device 5, and the drive portion 6 are incorporated therein. It is composed of

A hole 7 having an opening on the surface is formed in one side of the main body 2, and the needle 3 is housed in the hole 7 so as to be retractable. Also, on the surface of the knob 2a of the main body 2,
A guide groove 8 extending in a substantially diametrical direction is formed, and a tooth portion 4 is provided inside the guide groove 8 in a direction orthogonal to the guide groove 8.

A rechargeable battery 5 which can be charged is built in the main body, is inserted into a receiving portion A provided on the instrument panel, is charged through a terminal portion, and is pulled out from the receiving portion A. The rechargeable battery 5 is discharged to drive the drive unit 6. Here, the drive unit 6 is configured to vertically move the needle portion 3 so as to strongly project from the hole portion 7, and reciprocally move the tooth portion 4 in a direction of cutting the seat belt. Instead of the above structure, a dry battery, a nickel-cadmium battery or the like may be built in and used as a power source.

A known linear reciprocating structure can be used for the driving unit. For example, when a motor is used, a crank is connected to the output shaft of the motor, the base of the needle portion 3 is connected to the crank rod of the crank, and the tooth portion 4 is reciprocated up and down. Alternatively, a rack may be formed on the motor and the output shaft of the motor may be connected to the pinion to reciprocate.
When an electromagnet is used, the needle portion may be retracted by excitation, the excitation may be cut off, and the protrusion may be made by the force of the spring. The present invention is not particularly limited in its specific configuration. Not something.

If a cover such as a seal is releasably attached to the opening of the hole 7, there is no danger of being damaged by the needle tip even when not in use, which is safe. An opening / closing lid may be used instead of the cover. Next, in the illustrated example, the configuration in which the needle portion 3 and the tooth portion 4 are driven by different driving portions 6 and 6 is shown. However, one driving portion is provided, and the needle portion 3 and the tooth portion 4 are respectively driven via a transmission mechanism. You may use the structure which drives the part 4.

With the above structure, the body 1 is pulled out from the receiving portion A while holding the knob 2a at the time of escape. When the switch is provided in the main body, the switch is turned on, and when the switch is not provided, the rechargeable battery 5 is discharged as it is, and the needle portion 3 and the tooth portion 4 are passed through the drive portion 6.
And work. Therefore, when the buckle of the seat belt is broken and cannot be removed, the user can insert the seat belt into the guide groove 8 and cut the seat belt by the reciprocating motion of the tooth portion 4 to release the seat belt from the seat. it can.

By applying the needle portion 3 side to the window glass, the protrusion of the needle portion 3 can crack the window glass and easily break it out. In this way, in this embodiment, the plug portion of the main body 2 can be inserted into the socket portion S of the instrument panel for charging and withdrawing for use, as if the cigarette lighter for an automobile had substantially the same shape. .

The escape tool 1 shown in FIG. 2 has a knob 2 of a main body 2.
a having a large diameter, a hole 7 is formed on the surface of the knob 2a.
And the guide groove 8 are arranged, the needle portion 3 is built in the hole portion 7, and the guide groove 8 has a serrated tooth portion 4 so as to intersect with the inside thereof.
Is provided. This embodiment is the same as the above embodiment except that the needle portion 3 and the tooth portion 4 are provided on the same surface. As a result, the needle portion 3 can be projected and retracted from the hole portion 7 to crack the window glass, and the seat belt can be inserted into the guide groove 8 and cut by the tooth portion 4.

Next, the escape tool 1 shown in FIG. 3 has a structure in which a mainspring (not shown) is used as a drive unit without using a motor. In this escape tool 1, the operating portion 9 projecting outward is turned to wind the mainspring, and the restoring force thereof can drive the needle portion 3 and the tooth portion 4 via the respective transmission mechanisms. As a result, the window glass can be cracked and the seat belt can be cut in the same manner as in the above embodiment without requiring electricity.

In the above embodiment, the saw-teeth-shaped tooth portion is used to cut the seat belt, but a heater such as a nichrome wire may be used instead of the tooth portion. Especially when the seat belt is made of a plastic material, the heater may be effective.
Therefore, if a heating portion 10 such as a heater is provided at least at part along the guide groove 8, the seat belt inserted in the guide groove 8 can be melted and cut. Here, a nichrome wire may be directly used as the heater, or the tooth portion may be heated. And even with regular fibers,
It can be baked by heat and cut.

In the above embodiment, the structure in which the tooth portion and the needle portion are moved has been illustrated, but in the present invention, both may be fixed to the main body. In this case, the user can move the main body by hand to make the tooth portion and the needle portion function. In addition, it goes without saying that various design changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

[0017]

According to the present invention, since the needle portion and the tooth portion are provided in the main body, the window glass in the room is cracked to open the exit port, and the seat belt is cut by the tooth portion or the heater to cut the driver's seat. It is extremely useful because it is possible to get out of the car and safely protect the driver's life in the event of an accident.
