I remember when SARS broke out, when I was young, I was a little nervous whenever I heard the sound of an ambulance on the road. Although I am full of admiration for the medical workers fighting in the front line of ambulances, I will stay away from ambulances in the event of an epidemic. Although COVID-19 was more violent than SARS this time, we showed great determination in the face of the epidemic, and all walks of life also gave their love to help Wuhan and Hubei. Among them, as an automobile editor, I noticed that in the assistance of automobile enterprises, those models that escort medical workers and infected people-negative pressure ambulances.
What is a negative pressure ambulance?
Negative pressure ambulance, also called protective ambulance, is different from ordinary ambulance. The biggest feature of negative pressure ambulance is that it can be "negative pressure isolated". Similar to the negative pressure wards in the intensive care units of major hospitals at present, it can be used for the safe isolation and transportation of infected people when infectious diseases break out, and can effectively protect medical workers and the external environment from pollution and prevent the epidemic from spreading further.
Working principle of negative pressure ambulance
In addition to the professional ambulance equipment of ordinary ambulances, negative pressure ambulances can also ensure the safety and hygiene of medical cabins, and have the functions of isolation, corrosion resistance, ventilation and antibacterial. Through the negative pressure device in the car, the air pressure in the car is lower than the external atmospheric pressure, so that the air can only flow from the outside to the inside of the car when it flows freely, and the air in the car is discharged after harmless treatment. So as to form a fixed air circulation area in the negative pressure chamber. Air flows from the clean area (medical staff area) to the infection source area (patient area), and the air pressure in the cabin is maintained between-10 Pa and-120 Pa, so as to minimize the dead angle and vortex of air flow. And make clean air enter the car from above and be discharged from under the car to ensure that the head position of medical staff is pollution-free as far as possible. The polluted air below is converted into sterile air and discharged to the outside of the car through the exhaust filter device. Ensure the safe isolation of patients from the outside world during transportation.
Negative pressure ambulance manufacturers supporting the epidemic.
1.？ Jiangling Ford
In the news, we can see that some key hospitals in Wuhan are using this Jiangling Ford Transit ambulance more than once. At present, Jiangling Ford has received ambulances 1000, including 200 transit negative pressure ambulances. Jiangling Ford also set up an emergency team to start production and transportation during the Spring Festival holiday to ensure that Transit negative pressure ambulances can quickly reach the front line to start work.
Jiangling Ford is also the biggest brand in this support team. Calculated by 200 negative pressure ambulances and 800 ordinary ambulances, the amount of naked vehicles without medical equipment is about 65.438+0.4 billion yuan.
2.？ Saic Datong
During the Spring Festival holiday, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology assigned the production task of 60 negative-pressure ambulances to SAIC Datong Automobile Co., Ltd., which was coordinated by the Shanghai Economic and Information Technology Commission. This ambulance is based on the V80 of SAIC Chase, and the price of 60 ambulances without medical equipment is around 9 million.
3. Fujian Benz
After receiving the notice of "Material Support Group of National Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism for novel coronavirus Infection", Fujian Benz urgently completed the production of 20 Fujian Benz Weiting Negative Pressure Ambulances and rushed them to the epidemic area overnight, involving an amount of about 8 million yuan.
4. Brilliance Group
Brilliance Group also received the production instruction issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and worked overtime to complete the production task of 30 Jinbei G 16 negative pressure ambulances. The cost involved is about 3 million.
5. Beiqi Futian
Beiqi Foton is also one of the enterprises supporting the epidemic. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has given it the production task of 25 negative pressure ambulances, the models of which are Tuyano, Shanshui G9 and Shanshui G7, which are coordinated by the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Economy and Information Technology. The cost involved is estimated at 3 million pounds.
It can be seen that domestic ambulances are basically made by our domestic commercial vehicle enterprises, and then modified on the basis of mass production vehicles. Therefore, compared with ordinary car companies that donate money and materials, ambulances are a powerful weapon that can directly fight in the front line and an "expensive mask" to protect us. I also want to thank the major car companies for their contributions to the epidemic. I believe that with our joint efforts, we can win this war without smoke as soon as possible.
