The Great Wall Of Rescue

Description

The Great Wall of Rescue was designed to adapt to a multitude of grain entrapment rescue scenarios. The lightweight wall sections are easily maneuvered and can be aligned to form a wall, a tube, or other irregular shapes depending on the rescue situation and the number of panels available. Anodized ball-and-socket joints ensure smooth panel connection, and the joint was specially designed to have some range of movement, adding to the variability in shape.

Made of lightweight aluminum, rescuers can easily lift a panel up and join with another. Each panel weighs 20 lbs and is 16 wide x 5 inch long. The sleek finish allows the panels to slide easily into the grain. Anodized ball/socket joints promote smooth and easy panel connection and are resistant to jamming. The ball/socket joint was specifically designed so that the panels have some range of movement, adding variability to the possible shapes. The bends in the panels along with hinge that runs the entire length of the panel gives the panel added strength and will not cave in on the victim. When the panels are inserted into the grain mass, the grain is removed from around the victim to relieve pressure.

We provide accessories to aid in rescue. Platforms are provided for a sturdy base for rescuers. The insertion step allows a rescuer to use his own body weight to push sections into the grain, as opposed to hammering. The step also can be used to assist victims in climbing out of the grain as they are able. The removal pipe can be used as a support handle for the victim, or to remove the panels after the rescue is completed. The carrying case can store up to 8 panels and has interior straps to bind all accessories
Product Manual

STEP

The Insertion Step has two purposes: pressing panels into grain, and assisting a victim with climbing out of the grain. In cases where high moisture or high FM grain make wall section difficult, a rescuer can use all this body weight on the step to press the panels. The step is VERY durable.

PIPE

The pipe is slid through two handholds and acts as a handle for the victim, and also assists in pulling panels out of the grain when the rescue is complete.

RESCUER PLATFORMS

The included platforms provide a sturdy base for rescue workers to stand on during a grain extrication. The platforms prevent workers from sinking into the grain mass and decreases sidewall pressure on the wall/tube. Four lightweight 12”x24” poly platforms are included with each rescue set.
