The escape function of bus glass in emergency situations is mainly achieved in the following ways:
Manually opening windows:
Sliding windows: Passengers can open the windows through sliding operations to escape.
Push-out emergency window: Passengers can push open the entire window by simply turning a wrench.
Lift-type emergency window: Passengers press the switch and pull upward to open the window.
Closed windows and safety hammer:
Some buses are equipped with closed windows and are equipped with safety hammers.
Passengers should use a safety hammer to hit the four corners or edges of the window, especially the emergency window with a knock point mark, to break the window glass for escape.
The design of the safety hammer can concentrate the striking force to break the glass, reduce the scattering of fragments, and reduce the harm to passengers.
Safety top window:
Bus roofs are usually equipped with safety roof windows that can be pushed open.
Passengers can twist the knob on the window and push the top window open to escape.
When the vehicle rolls over or falls into the water, it is more effective to use the roof escape window to escape.
Automatic glass blaster:
Buses in some areas have begun to install automatic glass blasters, which are electronically controlled safety hammers.
When the driver presses the control switch, the spring and striker installed on the window will be triggered, shattering the window glass, allowing passengers to quickly escape through the window.
The automatic glass blaster has a strong impact and can shatter the glass instantly, but the glass will not explode in a jet shape, thus not endangering the safety of passengers.
Escape common sense and precautions:
Passengers should remain calm, look for the best opportunity to escape, and escape from the nearest door or window in an orderly manner.
When the doors and windows cannot be opened normally, methods such as opening the sunroof in the car, manually turning the door emergency switch, or breaking the window glass can be used to escape.
If a fire occurs, cover your mouth and nose with a towel or clothing when escaping, and walk in a low posture to avoid direct burning by the flames.
Avoid crowding and being too hasty when escaping to prevent secondary injuries.
People who have escaped from the carriage should show a spirit of mutual aid and help other escapees.
The above measures together constitute the escape function of bus glass in emergency situations, providing passengers with a variety of escape options and guarantees.
