Zhuhai University Students Designed Multi-function Disaster Relief Car and Received “Provincial Award” Machine's Long Arm with Camera and Life Detector

The disaster relief vehicle has a human hand and is able to move large boulders freely and flexibly. The disaster relief vehicle is also equipped with a life detector. Can it be found buried in the ruins of an earthquake? Yesterday, the reporter learned from the Beihai Institute of Science and Technology Zhuhai College that the four multi-national disaster relief vehicles invented by the college students had various rescue functions for the disaster relief vehicle. The design also won the first prize of the National Three-dimensional Digital Innovation Design Contest in the Guangdong Province.

The highlights of the multifunctional disaster relief vehicles are tracks that can run on various roads, can be controlled like human hands, have robots equipped with life detectors, and can illuminate the moon lights on half of the football stadium... Yesterday, the reporter learned from the North Polytechnic Institute. The design drawings of the four college students at Zhuhai University show that the disaster relief vehicle is a lot brighter.

When the earthquake struck, the roads became rough and difficult. This was true for the multifunctional disaster relief vehicles. "It tracks can overcome various roads, and there are open road shovels behind the car, shoveling stones or mud shovels to both sides of the road." Designer Guo Ruihuan introduced the students, and the long arms of the car can also help.

Speaking of this arm, Guo Ruihua introduced a sense of accomplishment because the “palm” of the car has five fingers like a human being, which is very flexible in operation, and a camera and life detector on the “palm” can quickly find the ruins. Whether there are signs of life. "The palm of the car can flexibly open or carry huge stones to avoid causing secondary damage to the victim." Guo Ruihuan said.

The general command room is the operating room of the body, which has a liquid crystal display and sends out motion instructions to the car through induction. The car also assumes the task of a “transport captain”. On both sides of the car, hydraulic clamps, fire extinguishers, and rescue items are all included.

The works of four college students stood out from more than 200 participating teams in Guangdong Province in October this year and won the first prize of the National 3D Digital Innovation Design Contest in Guangdong Province. They will participate in the national finals held in Changzhou, Jiangsu in November.

Four people become "Meeting King"

Four undergraduates come from the school's vehicle design major and mechanical design and automation majors, which are from the junior and senior levels respectively. For the sake of design, the four classmates became the "king of the meeting." "We have opened nearly forty or fifty times in more than a month." Guo Ruihuan said with a smile, often in the design process for details of disputes, and therefore can only meet to resolve.

Because they don't know much about industrial vehicles, the four people went to the site near the school to “examine” the excavators. "This is to make the design fit in." Guo Ruihuan introduced.

Can a utility vehicle become a reality? "To achieve a multi-functional disaster-relief vehicle, there are still difficulties, mainly because many technologies of the operating system still need to be overcome, and it takes time to solve it slowly," said Yang Yanyong, the team’s instructor.
