| Background It is fire hydrant that is the representative fire extinguishing facilities required for initial fire extinguishing. However, there seems to be difficulties for ordinary people to use it easily. So, the researcher searched for the design plan that can find and solve the problems.
Methods The questionnaire survey was carried out first. The questionnaire consist of the questions about the recognition of ordinary people against fire hydrant and requirements for improving the design of fire hydrant in large. With regards to searching for design plan based on the results of questionnaire, it was carried out by dividing the theme into functionality, usability and accessibility in large.
Result The first, the nozzle was designed to capable of direct and curved jetting along the situation regarding the functionality. The hose solved the freezing problem that is the weak point of hose reel fire hydrant b inserting heating cable partially.
Second, it was designed to aim the point source of fire origin by attaching the knob to the nozzle as well as bending it to decrease the strong repulsive force of nozzle part when jetting water regarding usability. And the rotation of entire hose reel was designed to be used easily by extruding that completely from the fire hydrant box.
Third, it was designed to discriminate a thing according to `standard of installing indoor fire hydrant facilities` regarding the accessibility.
Fourth, the curved line was emphasized in the possible range rather than straight line regarding plasticity. And, red color was applied as accent color and grey color was used as basic color to minimize the conflict against indoor environment and harmony with the building was promoted.
Conclusion If applies the research results above to the development of new fire hydrant, it was estimated to contribute to decreasing the damage of human life and property together with comfortable indoor environment. |
