5) Ladder release and folding.
6) 360 degree rotation of ladder.
 ABSTRACT/SYNOPSES

The fire accidents in tall buildings situated in congested areas in cities

causes huge loss of life as well as of property because appropriate rescue
operations, immediately is not possible due to the non approachability of
fire brigade vehicles and or other rescue instruments.
Due to lack of the sufficient space near the accident place or building it
very hard to position the fire brigade ladder rapidly.
Here we have developed a mechanical ladder which is control by joystick
on three axis having high flexibility to fit in even small places around the
building for rapid rescue.
Here we use worm screw gear arrangement to operate the ladder in 360 axis
and for tilting as well as folding. These mechanism is operate by the drive
motor which is controlled by joystick and all these are assembled on the
rotating platform on four wheel chasis.
ADVANTAGES:

1) Easy to operate.
2) 360 degree rotating platform.
3) Worm screw arrangement.
4) Joystick control.
5) Tilting and folding ladder.

SCOPE FOR ADVANCEMENT:

Hydraulics can be used for making more powerful

APPLICATIONS:

1) Use in natural disaster management.

2) Use for searching.
3) Use for medical help.
4) Use in fire accidents.
5) Use in rescue.
