Super portable life jacket

Kingii inflatable wristband

According to estimates from the World Health Organization, approximately 372000 people worldwide drown each year. Whether playing near water or encountering floods, carrying a life jacket with you is crucial.

This Kingii wristband style life-saving equipment from the United States weighs only 139g, which is very suitable for carrying around.

PLOOTA automatic sensing life jacket

For dry ducks like Xiang Jun, who are completely unfamiliar with water, every time they go to the beach to play, they want to wear a life jacket to prevent accidents, but they also feel that it is not very aesthetically pleasing.

Known as the world's smallest life jacket, the PLOOTA automatic sensing safety device, which is the size of a collar, completely solves this problem.

When going into the water, hang it around the neck like wearing swimming goggles, modeled and designed according to the curves of the human shoulder and neck, using soft and comfortable materials. When wearing it, gently buckle it for convenience and no burden.

If drowning occurs, simply press the trigger on top with your hand, and within 5 seconds, two small airbags filled with carbon dioxide will immediately pop out. Use sufficient buoyancy to pull your head out of the water and breathe freely.

Rapid flood control and water blocking device

Household flood control artifact

In the flood, the underground garage, first floor, and subway station became the hardest hit areas. With almost no obstruction measures in place, water poured into the rooms, and the situation was dire.

It is not practical to have sandbags ready at home for flood control at all times, so our NewFlag company has specially designed flood gates - Easy Flood Barriers - to block water from entering the door.

Prepare the foundation work before installation, install the embedded and fixed parts on both sides of the door. When the flood comes, we only need to take out the aluminum alloy plate and press it down. When the flood recedes, we can remove the baffle. Very convenient, even one person can complete it. He can resist the damage caused by floods to the house very well.

Automatic closure of flood control embankment

The flood caused the collapse of river embankments and dams.

For thousands of years, there seems to be no better way to resist than relying on sandbags.

The Netherlands, which has advanced flood control technology, has developed an automatic closed flood embankment called SCFB, which can replace sandbags and quickly build embankments.

 It usually hides underground, but when floods come, it automatically rises, forming a stable barrier.

Its working principle stems from buoyancy, as it is connected to the river channel and gradually rises when the water flow rises.

Floating to the top, under the influence of pressure and resistance, it will be pushed towards the wall by the inclined support block, tightly connected, without leaking a drop of water.

When the water level drops and the buoyancy decreases, it will automatically shrink back to its "invisible" state and not occupy any extra space.

This automatic closure flood control embankment is connected block by block, and can be used for flood control in warehouses and residential areas.

A very practical design that can solve some long-term hidden dangers for specific regions.

Car window breaking artifact

When the car is trapped in water and the doors cannot be opened, how can we escape? The windows become the only exit.

But it is not easy to quickly break open the super hard car window, and it is not practical to always carry a hammer around.

In response to this challenge, the well-known American brand Swiss+Tech has designed a tool that can save lives in critical moments, integrating 7 functions including blasting, cutting, lighting, and alarm.

Although it is only the size of a car key, it is really awesome to use.

The hidden blasting needle can shatter the car window and open the emergency survival channel in just one second.

This powerful impact force is emitted by the spring pin, which uses instantaneous elasticity to shatter the glass.

Emergency flood control housing

Adjustable building

In almost every flood, houses are washed away, and as a place to settle down, water resistance is very important.

A British architectural firm called Baca Architects has designed amphibious houses that can adjust their height according to the water level.

First, dig a square hole, reinforce it with steel and cement, and lay a solid foundation. Then pour in lightweight concrete and install four steel slides on both sides of the wall. In this way, based on Archimedes' principle: when water enters a pit and the weight and volume of the house are less than the mass of water, the base will float up, slowly rise, and finally be built of wood, with three floors above and below, about 225 square meters.

These great inventions to combat floods have indeed played a certain role in practical application, and are necessary for residents living in flood prone areas. Protecting the personal and property safety of residents is of utmost importance!
