ABSTRACT:
A manufacture for sheltering people in a case of earthquake emergency using an existing bed. The shelter is designed to protect people on the bed from collapsing structural and nonstructural elements of the building. The shelter has a horizontal frame of shelves for placing the bed on, confiners for fixing the bed, a cover on supports, and a base isolating system of ball-bearing footholds on pedestal plates with concave upper surfaces of proper curvature. Due to properly selected materials, shapes and cross-sections of its elements the shelter provides its own strength under the falling debris, and as a result secures people on the bed, while the base isolating system eliminates horizontal shaking of the shelter and thus prevents people on the bed from being thrown out of protective cover.
