The 2 Year Old Boy Was Called A Broken Leg By The Escalator.

In July 6th, the news of the 2 year old Xiao Xuan Xuan's right leg being picked up by the escalator occurred in Xiaolan people's Hospital in Zhongshan.

Yesterday afternoon, the head of the special equipment safety supervision section of Zhongshan Quality Supervision Bureau specially interviewed our reporter, announces the preliminary investigation result of the truncation of the right leg of Xiao Xuan Xuan by the lift elevator. The main reason for this tragedy is "

Get involved in the elevator.

Simulation experiment shows

Tragedy of the cave shoes

According to the director of the special equipment safety supervision section of Zhongshan Quality Supervision Bureau, they simulated the accident elevator on July 7th evening. The result of the experiment showed that the main reason for the accident was caused by the hole shoe.

He said that the shoes of the cave are relatively soft and easy to deform, and they are prone to friction between the apron and the elevator, so it is easy to get involved in the gap between the elevator ladder and apron plates.

The official told reporters that in order to get more accurate experimental results, they deliberately bought a pair of cave shoes with similar styles in Xiao Xuan Xuan's accident.

The director showed a video of a simulated experiment on July 7th night to reporters.

The reporter saw from the video that the staff involved in the test stabbed holes in the shoes with a wooden stick and then clung to the apron board of the elevator. In less than 5 seconds, the whole cave shoe was completely involved in the gap of the elevator, which made many people sigh.

Xiao Xuan Xuan wears shoes with holes for 8 yuan.

When the incident happened, what kind of shoes did Xiaxuan Xuan wear? Mr. Deng, the father of Xiaxuan Xuan, said that his son's shoes were bought from the stalls next to his booth, because he was familiar with the stall owners, so he spent only 8 yuan.

As for the cost accident caused by the hole shoe, the family member asked, "did you use other shoes to do the experiment in the simulation experiment?" the reporter then confirmed to the ad hoc department that only the hole shoe was used in the simulation experiment, so as to get closer to the scene when the accident happened.

The history of cave shoes:

It is understood that the cave shoes are also called.

It is a kind of sandals. It is characterized by the fact that there are many holes in the surface of the shoes, so they are called holes shoes.

According to media reports, the United States, Japan, Singapore and other places have warned against wearing holes in shoes and escalators, and news of accidents with holes in shoes is common.

In June 2011, when a 5 year old child and his mother took the escalator in a shopping mall in Sichuan, the right foot was almost caught in the escalator.

Thanks to the quick reaction, the feet were pulled out immediately, but the shoes on the feet were twisted into the elevator, and they were ripped from the upper to the upper.

A 6 year old boy in Hangzhou once got stuck in an elevator by wearing a hole shoe in 2011. When he reached for his pull, he had 3 fingers cut off.

When the accident happened, the children's shoes were stuck by the elevator, half on their feet and half in the elevator.

A newspaper in Hongkong once reported that 3 children wearing holes and shoes were injured by an escalator in Hongkong in 2007. One day they even had two consecutive rounds.

Zhongshan Municipal Quality Supervision Bureau

1. why can the elevator roll the whole shoe in?

According to the latest national standard, the gap between the apron board and the step is about 4 millimeters, and the apron board can not be very hard material. When it is subjected to 1500 Newton's external force, it allows 4 millimeters of elastic deformation, resulting in the entire gap increasing to 8 millimeters.

"The child's feet are thrown into the side, the shoes are rolled in and then open the gap, and the legs of the child are very soft, so they are all rolled into it."

2. is there any quality problem in the elevator?

The elevator has been overhauled in June 29th. The result shows that there is no quality problem.

3. why didn't the elevator stop automatically when it was stuck to something?

At present, some brands of escalators have a device called "skirt switch", which is usually installed at the exit and entrance of the lift, and will start automatic stop when the apron board meets external force.

It is understood that the accident occurred.

For Xizi Otis, the model is FT1000-LC30, and there is no "skirt switch" device on this type of elevator.

The device was not forced to add according to the national standard, so the elevator did not install the device nor violated the standard.

4. who should be responsible for the accident?

We thought at first that the accident was caused by the elevator, but after examining it in many ways, we found that the accident was an "accident".

The specific responsibilities need to be negotiated by the hospital with the family members of the child, or through legal channels.
