An inflatable rescue capsule for use in case of a distress at sea and which before being used is packed in a type of box, and which is inflated, automatically or by manual initiation when it enters the sea. The rescue capsule comprises a float body (1) and a house body (2) arranged thereon, in which distressed persons can be present. Both the float body (1) and the house body (2) are fo rmed by closed rings or hoses (6, 7, 8, 16, 17) arranged for being inflated by such high pressure as to provide a solid voluminous body, and in which the hoses (17) providing the upper part of the house body, after having been inflated, provides a cupola, and the lower part provides a supporting bottom section. The hoses are, at the top of the cupola, interconnected by a top securing means (18) formed with one or more upwardly directed hooks (28) by means of which the entire rescue capsule together with distressed persons present therein can be hoisted onto a helicopter or onto a ship. A part of the packing box of the capsule is formed as a drag anchor comprising, among other things, a gas bottle for inflating the rescue capsule, and which over a gas hose (5) is connected to a bottom securing means (19) over a loop at the rear lower edge of the capsule. At the front side the capsule is formed with a step (23) which is mounted so it can be rotated downwards-forwards. |
