Guardian

Para qué sirve

The window acts as a regular window or balcony but opens easily during a fire to create a refuge area. Users with mobility issues can use a hydraulic lift to cross the window frame. After crossing, they can pull down a fire-resistant fabric to contain flames.

Qué te inspiró

The design of barred windows is effective in preventing falls and deterring break-ins. However, during a fire, it can become an obstacle to escape. In a fire emergency, people typically seek assistance by moving towards windows. As the fire spreads, they may be forced to move outside, potentially leading to instability and falls.

Cómo funciona

1.Daily and Emergency Mode Transition Guardian, in its daily mode, serves as a window and transforms into a balcony when expanded. In the event of a fire, based on the balcony mode, it gradually descends when the victim reaches the platform, forming a temporary refuge to protect them. This design increases the practical frequency of Guardian, fostering interaction between individuals and the product. 2.Matte Texture of the Unfolded Cover The cover, after unfolding and undergoing a matte treatment, not only enhances aesthetics but also blurs the view of the surroundings from the high floors, preventing panic and encouraging users to confidently utilize the product. 3.Hydraulic Lifting Platform The manually operated hydraulic lifting platform not only avoids the use of electromechanical components but also allows individuals with limited mobility to easily traverse the window frame and reach the refuge area, aligning with universal design principles.

Qué lo hace diferente

Guardian is an intuitive and straightforward evacuation product compared to escape sling and window security bars. Unlike escape sling, it doesn't require specialized training or drills to be quickly mastered. This makes Guardian more convenient to use, requiring no additional skills or training. Moreover, it can function as a window or balcony in daily life, distinguishing it from other evacuation devices on the market. The most notable difference is its hydraulic lifting platform module, which provides a safer and more convenient escape route for individuals with mobility impairments. Overall, Guardian's advantages in operation, installation, and accessibility design make it a more user-friendly evacuation product.

Planes para el futuro

The outer layer of the window is designed to hold wallpaper matching each building's exterior. Additionally, the next generation will be simpler: after pushing open the protruding window, it will lower vertically to cling to the building's exterior when the user reaches the refuge area.
