Abstract

ABSTRACT Objective: This paper aims to provide an overview of concepts, progress, and challenges of life preservers, which may promote the importance of life preservers, and present several urgent issues on life preservers. Background: Although life preservers are required on an airplane in some overwater operations by the regulations of many countries, some airlines and many passengers have ignored life preservers. Method: Different requirements for life preservers are presented and compared. Then the progress on life preservers is analyzed. Based on these analyses, two problems of existing life preservers are summarized, and corresponding challenges are also proposed. Results: The difficulty of donning life preservers has been repeatedly proved through some major attempts to solve the problem. Furthermore, existing life preservers may make the passengers at risk of flight over cold water due to lack of thermal protection. Conclusion: Life preservers play a vital role in ensuring passenger safety in awater-related accident, but several urgent issues must be addressed on further improvement of life preservers.

救生员：概念、进步和挑战

摘要目的：本文旨在概述救生衣的概念、进展和挑战，以提高救生衣的重要性，并提出救生衣的几个紧迫问题。背景：尽管根据许多国家的规定，在一些水上作业中，飞机上需要救生衣，但一些航空公司和许多乘客忽视了救生衣。方法：提出不同的救生要求并进行比较。然后分析了救生圈的研究进展。在此基础上，总结了现有救生圈存在的两个问题，并提出了相应的挑战。结果：通过一些重大的尝试来解决这个问题，人们一再证明戴救生衣的困难。此外，由于缺乏热保护，现有的救生衣可能会使乘客面临在冷水上飞行的风险。结论：救生圈在确保涉水事故乘客安全方面发挥着至关重要的作用，但在救生圈的进一步改进方面还需要解决几个紧迫的问题。
