ABSTRACT:
Portable, wheeled apparatus for transporting two or more contaminated asbestos workers to a remote decontamination facility after performing asbestos removal. The portable device is wheeled and is provided with a brake to selectively prevent rolling. A fiberglass shell is mounted upon a rugged angle iron frame and is provided with a window along one side. A hingedly connected door is preferably provided with a window and has a gasket to provide an air-tight seal. Internally mounted door latches permit locking and opening from the interior. An air inlet is provided with a HEPA filter and fan to create positive pressure within the enclosure. An exhaust port is provided at the top end and is also fitted with a HEPA filter. A sealing flap extends around the people carrier door and is provided with a Velcro surface for attachment to a cooperating Velcro surface on the decontamination chamber as well as the work area. A Velcro strip on the opposite side of the closure flap and a cooperating Velcro strip provided on the carrier serves to retain the flap flush against the people carrier when not in use. A push handle is provided at the end of the people carrier opposite the door. A rechargeable battery is mounted within the people carrier to power the fan and may be plugged into a suitable AC outlet for recharging when not in use.
