OVERVIEW OF SELECTED HYDRAULIC DEVICES SUPPORTING ROAD RESCUE OPERATIONS
Journal Title: Scientific Journal of the Military University of Land Forces - Year 2017, Vol 185, Issue 3
Abstract
The intense human activity determines the continuous development of systems and means of transport, which contributes to the intensification of existing road traffic risks and the emergence of new ones. Reduction in the number of fatalities of road accidents is dependent on investment in transport infrastructure, the development of safety sys-tems for means of transport and the care for the technical condition of vehicles. Fur-thermore, the human factor is manifested in the growing awareness of hazards and im-proving skills of vehicle drivers. The article presents the construction, operating principles and technical capabilities of the most commonly used hydraulic rescue tools. All this was presented against the background of selected problems occurring during rescue opera-tions while releasing victims caught in car wrecks.
