Many people are killed by natural disasters and vehicle accidents that occur more frequently every year.
Car accidents occur suddenly, such as rear-end collisions caused by using a smartphone while driving, mistaking the accelerator for the brake, trucks rolling over at low speeds, and cars rolling over due to sudden steering. What do you do when you can't get out of your car after a traffic accident, or when the car is submerged in water due to a sudden downpour and the water pressure makes it impossible to open the door? A
useful item for such situations is the "JIS certified emergency tool."
In 2020, it was the first in Japan to obtain JIS certification for basic functions. It is an emergency escape support tool for automobiles used to quickly escape and rescue people from inside the car.
The sharp cutter can cut off the seat belt, and the carbide hammer can break the side window with little force. The main unit weighs only 60g, so even women can use it easily.
①What is JIS?
・Japanese Industrial Standards are national standards that stipulate standards and measurement methods for Japanese industrial products.
・JIS certified emergency tools are certified as Japanese Industrial Standards D5716 (JIS D5716).
・In July 2019, the name was changed from Japanese Industrial Standards.
In other words, the country has recognized that the products are safe and secure!
②D5716 (JIS D5716) is
a standard established in September 2016.
This is an emergency escape aid for automobiles with seat belt cutting and glass breaking functions, used for emergency escape from inside a vehicle when trapped inside the vehicle in a traffic accident or submersion accident (excluding racing vehicles).
There are two types of emergency escape aid for automobiles.
① Basic function type: Only has seat belt cutting and glass breaking functions.
② Fire extinguishing function added type: Basic function type with fire extinguishing function added.
Among these, the JIS certified emergency tool is ① Basic function type.
②When is it useful?
▼When you are unable to get out of the car due to a rear-end collision
When you are not paying attention to the road ahead while driving, such as using a mobile phone, operating a car navigation system, or watching TV, you may not be able to brake in time and end up rear-ending a car or equipment.
If you mistake the accelerator for the brake and rear-end the car with force, you can use this to break the window glass and escape if the door cannot be opened.
▼When the seat belt automatically locks and you cannot get out of the vehicle
Use the seat belt cutter when the seat belt is locked due to a sudden impact such as pulling forcefully or stepping on the brakes
suddenly. ▼When your car is suddenly submerged in water due to heavy rain and you cannot get out of the car
There are many cases of submersion during typhoons and torrential rains. Use it to escape from the car as quickly as possible.
▼When you enter an underpass without noticing that it is flooded and the door cannot be opened When you
enter a flooded underpass, the rear wheels will float and it will be very difficult to escape from the car. Water will enter the car in an instant. You
can use it to break the glass and escape before it is submerged.
It can be used in the event of vehicle accidents or natural disasters such as those mentioned above.
③How the emergency tool worksJIS
certified emergency tools have two functions and are designed with a unique shape.
*Carbide hammer*
Carbide is harder than iron and stainless steel, and is second only to diamond in hardness.
Side glass is broken by applying force to one point. JIS certified emergency tools
are designed to be able to break glass with a small force by cutting the carbide tip one by one by hand.
In the hardness test of the protrusion, the hardness of our product was 1300HV or more, while the passing line was 760HV or more.
*Seat belt cutter*
The width of the opening of the seat belt is designed to prevent fingers from getting caught and causing injury. It has a
guide function to spread the seat belt so that it can be cut straight and not twisted.
The angle of the blade is designed to reduce the resistance with the seat belt so that it can be cut quickly.
*Hammer shape *
It has a structure that integrates glass breaking and seat belt cutting.
With a quick pull, the seat belt is cut, and the momentum breaks the side window. It is an ideal shape that can be used in a series of actions without having to change tools. The
handle has a grip that is easy to grip and does not slip.
Anyone who can drive a car can easily break glass.
The main body weighs only 60g, so it floats on water.
④ Recommended installation location
: When an impact is applied during an accident, the seat belt is fixed, so the body cannot lean forward beyond the fixed position.
Therefore, we recommend installing it in a place that can be reached even if the body is fixed while sitting in the driver's seat.
・We recommend the area around the driver's seat, such as the center console.
・Remove dust and dirt from the back of the holder and the installation location, and attach it firmly using the included double-sided tape.
・Do not install near the airbag installation area.
⑤Precautions for use
⚠ The expiration date is 10 years from the date of manufacture. The serial number is printed on the back of the unit.
⚠ For side windows only. Cannot be used on front windows, rear windows, or laminated glass.
⚠ Do not cut anything other than seat belts.
⚠ When using, do not use force to shatter the glass. If you use too much force, the glass may fly off and cause injury.
⑥Customer feedback
: There are many cheap products out there, but it's better to be able to use the cutter and hammer without having to switch hands. It
broke with just a light knock.
The pieces shattered into pieces and didn't remain sharp, so I think it reduces the risk of injury. I
don't know about the cutter because I didn't use it.
It feels light to hold and seems easy to use. The product has been properly tested, so I purchased it with confidence.
Recently, there was a news report of someone driving a car into a river nearby and drowning. In an emergency, having
one makes a decisive difference, so it's reassuring in that respect. It's better to have a product like this that is made in Japan and has been tested.
JIS certified emergency tools have undergone all necessary testing and have obtained the JIS mark.
