Book bags are also life buoys

The pair is made of a lightweight material, which helps to lift the user, acting as a life buoy when falling into the water.

In areas with many rivers, students often go to school when going to school. Because of their inability to swim, not fully equipped with life jackets, many students drowned in the sinking accidents. Recently, there are many initiatives of people who are passionate about types of backpacks, backpacks, suitcases that function as lifesaver for students in water areas.

At Techmart Ha Nam in May 2008, visitors were very impressed with Mr. Pham Quang Huy (Nam Dinh City )'s buoy pair initiative, displayed here. Due to many years of operation in the composite material industry, Huy has taken advantage of this to find a suitable material for making a float. The appearance of the float is not much different from the normal school bag. However, this briefcase is made of a light material, which helps lift its wearer when it falls into the water. The case is made of a waterproof canvas, the inside of the case is attached with a polyurethane foam, which will become a very useful buoy in strict situations. Through testing, the pair can lift a person with a weight of about 50 kg to the surface without any impact from the body. The case is also designed with striking colors such as red, blue and orange to easily see in water.

Pair of buoys is no different from a normal pair of books.

In HCMC, the buoy pair initiative was also launched. ' In 2006, during a business trip to Dong Thap, I witnessed the students going to school to go through small boats, without buoyancy, and looked very dangerous. Back home, I think I have to do something to help them ' - Ms. Nguyen Thi Ngoc Lan said about the starting point of making buoys. The briefcase weighs about 0.6 kg, is quite compact and suitable for students from grade 5 and below. For students in grade 5, needing more books, there are three lots of buoys with similar functions. Pairs, this backpack has a 45 kg buoyancy.

The versatile suitcase of Tran Dinh Ba (Vung Tau) is also a useful product for students who often have to go on boats, canoes and even seafarers. With a size of 16 cm x 35 cm x 45 cm, the suitcase has a simple structure like a hard plastic box, designed with rubber gaskets that can prevent water from entering. Normally, it is possible to use suitcases to hold many items such as books, living tools . but during the emergency, it is a very important life buoy. The suitcase is also equipped with a long cord to facilitate the rescue process or tie into a fixed point, avoiding drifting.

Stemming from pitiful deaths due to river accidents, Mr. Tran Dinh Ba spent his time researching to create this versatile suitcase. With a special design, the suitcase can be used to store fresh water in long-term fishermen's trips. Also, when needed, many suitcases can be assembled into a raft floating on the water. This product has been reviewed, appraised and granted S1998 0518 by the National Office of Industrial Property. The author has repeatedly written a letter to the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, the Ministry of Fisheries and the Search and Rescue Committee. and the Central Committee for Flood and Storm Control and the Red Cross . considered to produce and equip fishermen and people in floating water areas and storms and floods . 'But unfortunately, up to now This suitcase has not yet been put into use for necessary places '- Mr. Ba pityed.
