description

The present invention relates to a device, a system, a method, a computer program and a telecommunications network for directing a dangerous situation caused by a hazard and to perform and / or support a related use in case of a dangerous situation within a danger zone, especially in a building, wherein the danger situation is limited to a danger area such as a building or an area,

In the context of the present description, a dangerous situation is to be understood as any situation which is caused by one or more perpetrators of danger, namely natural persons, represents a danger to persons and objects and necessitates countermeasures for defusing that, in the context of a deployment of at least Initially, persons not affected by the situation will be executed, which will be referred to below as operational and emergency services. While the command center analyzes the dangerous situation and decides on countermeasures, the emergency services carry out the countermeasures in accordance with the operational command. The task force usually consists of a team of suitably trained persons, whereby a task leader has the last word regarding the countermeasures and bears the responsibility. First and foremost are as dangerous situations rampages and kidnappings to call, which are carried out by perpetrators. Thus, the present invention primarily relates to hazards directly posed by humans, and secondarily to hazards that are only indirectly human or from technical defects or natural disasters. For example, a fire may be the result of intentional or negligent human behavior or technical failure or natural spontaneous combustion.

The missions are usually carried out by the police, special forces, the fire department or the technical relief organization. Hazardous areas are to be understood as those areas which are affected by the dangerous situation, for example buildings or outdoor facilities of buildings. In addition, the danger zone can extend to a limited area such as a sports or industrial plant. Larger ships can also be affected. Noteworthy are public buildings such as schools, train stations and airports. In all cases, the corresponding areas can only be left via certain routes, but these can not easily be passed in a dangerous situation. In the case of a killing spree, the gunman will try to shoot at people who want to leave the danger area. The same applies in the case of a hostage-taking. In fires, escape routes through the fire can become impassable.

Regardless of whether a killing spree, a kidnapping or a fire takes place, essentially the following steps take place: To call for help, an external body must be alerted, for example by pressing an alarm detector. This alarm is forwarded to an operations center, which then mobilizes the appropriate forces such as the police or the fire department. The task forces then move to the danger area without having more detailed information regarding the characteristics of the dangerous situation. In the event of a fire, the fire department moves in the event of a fire alarm without having any further information than that from which the fire was reported. Only after arrival at the target object does the leader of the fire-extinguishing train receive further information about which building and where the fire takes place exactly in the building, for example on which floor and in which room. This usually takes place initially via a Firefighters information center, which consists of a site plan on an aluminum plate in properties with several buildings, flashing LEDs in each building show in which of the buildings a fire has broken out. This serves for the first orientation of the

Extinguisher on the premises. More information about the exact location of the

Fire departments, such as projectile and room, the fire department then receives the logging of the fire alarm system, which accumulates in the fire alarm panel and provides information about which detector was triggered exactly. To further

Orientation is then provided by firefighting plans and paper-based training cards, which depict the "firefighting routes" for the building, right down to each individual room.The fire brigade does not receive any information about those threatened by the fire, or does so only occasionally and inaccurately on the basis of witness interviews must, if possible, commit the burning building and search it completely for any persons at risk, in which case firefighters themselves are sometimes in great danger

Increases the damage to the building leads. It should be emphasized, however, that persons arrested after a delay in some cases can only be seriously injured or even only be recovered dead. The danger situation in a fire is still relatively manageable, since the fire spread experience is more or less well predictable. The escape routes are then relatively clear. In a hostage situation or a

Rampage, the danger situation is much more complex, since the

Endangerment, such as the gunman or the hostage taker, his position in the danger area can change quickly and unpredictably. Depending on how well prepared the hazard generator is, he or she may have knowledge of the dangerous area that is not available to the operational management. In addition, the perpetrator of the hazard can prevent or at least delay countermeasures to defuse the danger situation by threatening violence against hostages.

Devices for supporting such an insert have become known from the prior art. DE 10 2005 021 736 A1 describes a device for controlling rescue measures for persons at risk who are for example, in a building. For this purpose, the device has sensors with which the persons in the building can be located. In addition, the device includes speakers that can be used to instruct people on how to behave. The instructions are from a

Computer automatically generated, which determines the place of the hazard and the position of the persons. The instructions lead people out of the building as risk-free as possible. In addition, the information can also be used by emergency services

Be made available, for example about trapped persons. DE 103 47 894 B4 describes a device which, for example, in a

Industrial plant can be installed. In the industrial plant are several

Positioned markers that interact with transponders worn by a person. This allows the position of the person in the

Industrial plant to be constantly tracked, which has a computational and

Evaluation unit is displayed. The device allows it to be constantly

to understand which person is where. In the case of an alarm, the device can mark escape routes that lead safely out of the industrial plant. It can be determined whether all persons are at the collection point or not. DE 20 201 2 100 157 U1 relates to a dynamic escape and rescue guidance system with which persons from an endangered area can be directed to a safe location. For this purpose, the system displays pictograms which show the people in danger the right way. The system is also capable of

The pictograms displayed must be checked for accuracy and, if necessary, amended, if they recognize that the pictograms are no longer pointing the way to the endangered.

US 2010 207 429 A1 describes a system which uses

In an emergency, networks and network servers are able to locate people in a building using mobile network equipment such as cell phones and smart phones equipped with specialized software. Data about the building in question is stored on the server so that the network server gives instructions to the people who are in the building to effectively combat the threat. The instructions may also be directed to emergency responders to coordinate the mission.

US 2007/0044539 A1 discloses a network with which the environment can be observed in conditions indicative of a disaster. The catastrophes described there are attacks with nuclear, biological or chemical weapons and industrial accidents. If the conditions change in a certain direction, which is typical for a disaster, the network supports the coordination of countermeasures. The spatial extent of such catastrophes is not foreseeable, so that the network described there does not relate to a clearly definable danger area.

US 2005/0245232 A1 discloses a system with which countermeasures in the event of a disaster can be coordinated. Here, the system provides one

Communication platform with which information can be exchanged between all involved organizations such as fire brigade, police and ambulance.

US 2005/0275547 A1 describes a system with which leakages in a building, for example of water pipes installed in a building, can be detected at an early point in time and corresponding countermeasures can be initiated, for example a shut-off of the affected water pipe. The early detection and early initiation of countermeasures minimizes the damage to the building caused by the leakage. This system does not apply to hazardous situations that pose a direct danger to persons.

US 5 815 417 describes a system with which the effects of certain decisions on the further course of a disaster are simulated. The system thus supports the responsible decision-makers to improve the quality of their decisions in the event of a disaster.

WO 2009/038557 A1 describes a system which is based on a

Optimization algorithm based and which out of respect to the danger situation Information is calculated the optimal escape route from the danger area.

All systems have in common that they represent only isolated solutions and not collect and process all available information about the danger situation. Some of the above systems are designed for a specific hazard situation, such as a fire and can not be used in a rampage. Other systems merely depict the danger situation, so while they provide valuable information to the supervisor, they leave him alone in deciding which situation to spend appropriate action. Other systems, in turn, automatically generate instructions without the command center officer being able to intervene. None of these systems are tailored to the particularities that are typical of a hazardous situation, which is caused by a natural person as a hazard.

In particular, it is not possible with any system to track the danger situation in real time and to take targeted measures at all times in order to manage, influence and control the danger situation.

Object of the present invention is a device, a system, a

A method, a computer program and a telecommunications network to create, which make it possible to record a variety of hazardous situation information and to generate action proposals that help the chief of operations, the danger situation as quickly as possible and with reduced risk for both the vulnerable and for the Task forces too

defuse. In addition, the possibility should be created to transmit specific instructions to the persons at risk and / or to the emergency services, so that they can deal with the risk situation with reduced risk.

Furthermore, it should enable the invention, the scope of the

To specifically change the cause of the hazard and thus actively

To influence and control dangerous situations.

The object is achieved with a device according to claim 1, a system according to claim 9, a method according to claim 1 1, a computer program according to Claim 12 and a telecommunications network according to claim 13. Advantageous developments are the subject of the dependent claims. In addition, the object is also achieved with an alarm according to claim 14. According to the invention, the device for steering comprises one of a

Hazardous person caused hazardous situation and for performing and / or supporting a related use, the danger situation is limited to a hazardous area such as a building or an area, a number of alarm detectors located in the danger area, which is active and / or passive person in the danger area can be triggered by the exceeding of a selectable threshold value, wherein the alarm detectors output first signals that contain information regarding the position of the triggered alarm detector in the danger zone, an information recording device, which

Receives information regarding the hazardous situation and converts it into corresponding further first signals, a conversion and forwarding device that collects the first signals, bundles and converts as required into a uniform format and forwards to a computing unit, wherein the processing unit processes the first signals, the dangerous situation prepared and from this

Proposals for supporting the use generated, a display unit, which represents the prepared by the arithmetic unit hazard situation and generated proposals for action and thereby by the alarms and the

Information input device recorded information and / or other information indicating the dangerous situation, an input unit with which a user can approve, reject, supplement, change or replace the action proposals with their own suggestions for action, the action proposals after processing by the user in device-related instructions and personal Action instructions are converted and supplied to the arithmetic unit and wherein the arithmetic unit converts the instructions into second signals and forwards to the conversion and forwarding device and optionally further devices, an execution device which executes the device-related instructions in accordance with the second signals, wherein the conversion and forwarding the second signals are formatted as required to be executable by the execution device are an evacuation device, which the personal instructions according to the second signals for in the

Indicating or displaying and outputting hazardous area, wherein the conversion and forwarding means formats the second signals as necessary to be displayed or displayed and output by the evacuation device, and one or more independent power supply units.

An essential core of the invention is to gather as much information as possible which can help to map the danger situation correctly and in real time, so that a task force responsible for the danger situation can initiate the appropriate countermeasures to direct, influence and manage the danger situation to be able to control them and to defuse them with little risk and as quickly as possible. All information concerning the dangerous situation runs over the

Arithmetic unit which displays this information clearly with the aid of the display unit. The further information relating to the dangerous situation can be plans of the danger area which are stored in the arithmetic unit, for example floor plans of the floors of a building in which the

Dangerous situation takes place.

The arrangement of the various components of the information recording device in the danger area can be stored in the plan, so that the operations management can always recognize where information comes from. The same applies to the alarm detector. First of all, the triggering of the alarm detector is the prerequisite for activating the device according to the invention and alerting a task manager or operator to the dangerous situation. The alarm detector can either be triggered by a person in the danger zone or by exceeding a threshold value. An example of a threshold value may be the volume and / or the pattern of the noise development, to which the alarm detector comprises a sound sensor. As a result, the alarm can be triggered by a shot from a weapon or by increasingly occurring screams. Regardless of the type of trip, the information about the position of the triggered alarm is of crucial importance for the following reason: In the vast majority of cases, the alarm is triggered which has the greatest spatial proximity to the hazard. If the polluter shoots or screams a victim, the threshold of the nearest alarm detector is exceeded the most. If the alarm is actively triggered by a person, it must at least have eye contact with the hazard causing or have had to be aware of the danger situation. The position of the alarm triggered alarm gives the chief of operations an important clue as to where the polluter can be and who he might be. Based on

Information about the location of the hazard in the danger zone, the countermeasures can be initiated within a very short time, without valuable time for the localization of the hazard within the danger zone is lost. Usually, not only one, but several alarms are triggered in a dangerous situation. In order to be able to identify the location of one or more potential hazards as quickly and effectively as possible, incoming alarm messages are sent by the

Computing unit related to each other and presented and traced from the result of or the locations of the hazard causer. The earlier

Countermeasures can be initiated, the better it succeeds, the

To mitigate the risk situation, whereby the first quarter of an hour from the onset of the dangerous situation as described above plays a crucial role.

Furthermore, neighborhood plans of the danger area can be stored in the arithmetic unit, from which, among other things, access and escape routes, parking lots, hydrants or hospitals emerge. This information helps to better coordinate the countermeasures.

The information recording devices can be all devices already present in the building which are suitable for the acquisition of information, for example cameras in the entrance area and the corridor zones. But it can also be installed additional components that are usually not or only rarely found in a building, which will be discussed in more detail later. The The first signals generated by the alarm detector and the information recording device are forwarded to the conversion and forwarding device and, if necessary, converted into a uniform format. This is particularly necessary if the information recording device comprises several components, which will be the rule. These components usually generate the first signals in different formats, sometimes also in analog form, so that a conversion into a uniform format is indispensable. The conversion into a uniform format is an important part of the invention, as a result

In particular, the transmission of the signals and the representation of the dangerous situation can be simplified. In particular, existing in the building older devices can be included, so that the retrofitting of hazardous areas is simplified with the device according to the invention. The first signals are then forwarded to the arithmetic unit and further processed there. Although not preferred, it is conceivable to combine the arithmetic unit and the conversion and forwarding device into a structural unit.

In principle, the risk situation can be assessed all the better, the more information available in this regard. However, this may have the disadvantage that it is difficult for the operations management to distinguish relevant from non-relevant information in the flood of information. From this could

Wrong decisions with far-reaching consequences result. Another essential aspect of the invention is therefore that the arithmetic unit processes all available information with the aid of a suitable algorithm and generates action proposals with which the dangerous situation can be mitigated. These action suggestions are given to the user and in particular to the

Head of operations also represented by the display unit, so that he has the opportunity to compare the action proposals with the current situation and to check for plausibility. A key point is that the

Device according to the invention can not implement the action suggestions without the confirmation of the head of operations in instructions. Rather, the should

Rescue Leader have the last word, which action proposals in

Instructions are implemented. Consequently, the mission leader can

Proposals for action confirm, reject, supplement or change. He can, too completely deviate from the action proposals and own

Give instructions if the suggested action does not seem appropriate. By confirming the action proposals, the dispatcher can completely, ie automatically, the dangerous situation of the inventive

Device can be treated, but at any time in a position to intervene in the event, if he believes that the risk situation in one

unwanted direction is running.

The arithmetic unit and the display and input unit are usually arranged in a control center and can be at least partially summarized, for example by means of a touch screen or touchpad, so that an intuitive user interface is provided. But they can also be realized in a classic way with screen, keyboard and computer mouse. Depending on the design, the operations center can also be designed for a team that manages the mission. For this purpose, several user interfaces in different

Rooms arranged or the user interface be designed so that it can be operated by a team.

Depending on the potential danger to which a hazardous area is exposed, the operations center may be located away from the danger zone or in the danger zone. In a public building such as a school or a train station, for example, the PC of the headmaster or the station manager can take over the function of the computing unit and the school or station manager can act as the head of operations. This embodiment is useful if the hazard potential is considered rather low. It should then be provided that the office of the school or station manager is secured so that the hazard can not easily penetrate. In hazardous areas that are high

Are exposed to potential risks, such as ministries, the

Operating center clearly located away from the danger area, so that the operations manager is not within the sphere of influence of the hazard. The operations center can also be arranged in a mobile emergency vehicle. Regardless of how the decision to issue a particular instruction has been made, this instruction is fed to the arithmetic unit, which then converts it to second signals and transmits it to the conversion and routing device, which relays the second signals to the particular execution device she can do this. However, the second signals can also be forwarded to the other devices, for example to mobile devices such as smartphones or tablet computers, which can also be used in mobile operation centers, so that members of the

Operation line, which are not in the operations center, in the use

be included and from the beginning and at any time have the complete and the same level of information.

The instructions must distinguish between device-related and personal-related instructions. device-related

Handling instructions can be implemented directly by the device in question and need not be displayed or displayed perceptibly to persons. Under an execution device is intended in the context of this description a

Device can be understood, which can implement the device-related instructions directly themselves. An execution device, which executes the device-related handling instruction directly, for example, be a lock cylinder or an electromagnetic locking latch, a specific door or a

certain window in the building, in which the danger situation takes place, opens or closes. On the other hand, personal instructions must be given to the affected persons

Identify and identify people in a suitable manner. According to the evacuation device is used to personal

To display instructions visually screens and / or acoustically output via speakers, with a visual display of personal instructions is preferable. The evacuation device is set up so that it is the people in the danger area

personal instructions clearly and unambiguously transmitted so that they can safely and quickly leave the danger zone. Within certain limits, it is also possible to personal

View instructions about vibrations so that the affected person feels them. For example, if a mobile devices have been located in the danger area, which can be assigned to a vulnerable person, so may

Vibrating alarm to be triggered.

As can be seen from the above statements, the entire information flow passes through the arithmetic unit and the conversion and forwarding device, so that an uninterrupted exchange of information without media discontinuity is realized. Errors that occur when transferring from one medium to the other are thus avoided. In addition, no time is required to transfer and it is prevented that after a medium has yet to be searched. Consequently, within a short time after activation of the device, for example by triggering the alarm, the operator can form a complete picture of the

On the one hand, he can already take countermeasures before emergency forces are on the ground and, on the other hand, provide the emergency services with relevant information on the way to the danger area, so that they can immediately start their operations on-site or if they have already started using external control Continue use and / or quit.

The one or more independent power supply units represent a further essential aspect. It is understood that all components and in particular the computing unit and the conversion and relay device are supplied with electrical energy via the general power grid. However, since an unconditioned functionality of the device according to the invention is desired, the independent power supply unit ensures that the device

regardless of the general electricity network works. In this case, for example, a battery system and / or an emergency generator may be provided. As a result, a redundancy is created, so that it is difficult for the hazard causes, set by targeted damage to electrical wiring, the device according to the invention au function. The independent power supply units can be included in the setup of the proposed device. But it is just as possible already in the danger area to be secured

existing independent power supply units such as the battery system or the emergency generator to integrate in the proposed device, provided that they can ensure the unconditioned functionality of the device over a longer period. If this is the case, it is not necessary to install new independent power supply units, so that the material and

Installation costs can be kept low.

The devices disclosed in the documents mentioned above can be easily put out of operation by sabotaging a power distribution box in the vicinity of the building. This makes it possible to interrupt not only the power supply of the building in which the danger area is located, but also the power supply of the buildings located in the neighborhood. This has the advantage from the point of view of the hazard that it is the people who are in the neighboring buildings and the

Dangerous situation, it is difficult to get help. Also, the mobile connections can be affected by such sabotage at least. In the event that one or more independent power supply devices are provided in the building in question, a sabotage of the power distribution box in so far as empty, as that the inventive device thereof in its

Functionality is not impaired. In order nevertheless to be able to set the device according to the invention out of operation, it must know the location of the independent power supply unit. The determination of the location is much more difficult than the sabotage of a power distribution box. The independent one

Power supply unit can also be arranged in a secure room, so that alone due to an unauthorized entry into this room an alarm can be triggered, which significantly worsens the situation for the hazard. In addition, the independent

Power supply device be located outside of the building so that even if the danger cause knows the location, he has to travel a certain distance to get into the building, whereby he loses time, which also worsens the situation for him. Furthermore, it is possible not only one, but several spatially separated independent

Provide power supplies, so that the sabotage of a

independent power supply device does not lead to failure of the device according to the invention. The more independent power supply facilities are present, the harder it is for the danger producers to put the device according to the invention out of operation.

It should be noted at this point that all components of the device can be provided with redundancies in order to reduce the probability of failure. Only then can be safely ruled out that the previously described highly complex bi- and multidirectional information exchange processes are interrupted by Abre Shen the power supply and thus the opportunity to control and influence the dangerous situation is no longer given.

The device according to the invention thus makes a significant contribution to be able to perform operations faster and better, so that the danger situation can be defused quickly and with low risk. In particular, the risk posed by the dangerous situation is significantly reduced both for those at risk, such as hostages and for the emergency services. In addition, it allows the

Device according to the invention in comparison to the devices and systems mentioned above, to influence the danger situation and actively control their course and to direct in the desired direction, in particular the fact that the persons at risk person-related instructions are given, which are tailored to the device-related instructions. In addition, a door in the corridor of the danger area by means of a device-related

Handling instructions are closed, so that the freedom of movement of the

Danger is significantly reduced. Persons who are located on the side of the door facing away from the hazard can be shown a corresponding personal instruction after the door has been closed, after which they can leave the danger area with a minimized risk. The central difference to previously known devices is that the steering and control of the dangerous situation already from the first minute after its emergence from an external person (operator, head of operations)

is not at the location of the danger situation, ie the place of deployment, and it can not be due to the shortness of time. The use of the device according to the invention creates the possibility of the danger producer has to face within a short time an external person capable of acting, who can restrict the danger-taker specifically in his freedom of action.

The targeted control of a previously uncontrollable danger situation and as

The consequence of this is loss-free securing and / or evacuation of endangered persons, in the best case together with the insulation and / or

Fixing of one or more risk causers is the ultimate goal when using the device according to the invention in a dangerous situation.

In particular, in the case of rampages, a central point is essential: As soon as a gunman reveals himself and uses firearms to open fire on the target persons, in almost all cases only a few minutes pass before he kills or injures a large number of people and thus his target has reached all or part. In the final analysis, he kills himself afterwards. This scenario usually lasts no longer than 15 or 20 minutes. As a result, even in the case of a very quickly triggered alert for emergency services, it has not been possible to arrive in time at the scene of the dangerous situation and to save human lives. In order to bring about a paradigm shift here, an operator in an emergency call center will be able to actively intervene with the device according to the invention within one minute after the alarm has been triggered externally by remote control in the dangerous situation, directing it and, in the best case, the one or more hazards and at the same time to secure and / or evacuate the vulnerable persons before the mobile emergency services can be physically present. Only in this way can lives be saved in the described situation in the future. An embodiment of the device according to the invention is characterized in that the alarm detector has a projecting actuating body. Furthermore, the alarm detector can be mounted on a support means body, a movable arranged on the body actuating body, which to trigger is movable relative to the base body by a person located in the danger zone, and comprises a number of sensors arranged in the base body and / or in the actuating body, wherein the actuating body protrudes from the carrier device and the base body and the relative movement of the actuating body is detected by the sensors, whereby the Alarm is triggered. Conventional and widely used alarm detectors have a lower button located behind a glass panel closing an enclosed space. To trigger an alarm, you must first smash the glass and

then the button is pressed. For this, the triggering person must stop in front of the alarm. Therefore, it takes a certain amount of time to fire, which may be available in case of fire, but not if you are fleeing from an armed hostage taker or a gunman, the one

possibly tracked. The alarm detector according to the invention can be activated by applying a certain force to the projecting actuating body. This can happen in passing, so that the person triggering the alarm does not have to stop. This is not just because of

Time savings advantageous, but makes it possible to trigger the alarm even if a large crowd wants to flee the danger zone and a standing in front of the alarm is practically impossible. A

Carrier device is in most cases a building wall, but may also be a pillar, a retaining wall or another support structure outdoors.

The sensors must be able to detect movement of the actuator body. This can be done for example by means of a piezoelectric element or a

Inertialsensors done. Another possibility is that the base body and the actuating body respectively contacts are attached, which through the

Relative movement of the actuator body can be brought into contact with each other.

In a further development of the alarm detector, the actuating body is movable relative to the base body at least along two actuating directions, wherein the actuating direction can be detected by the sensors when triggered. It is preferred that the actuating body along exactly two directions of actuation is movable, which corresponds to the directions along which a person can pass the alarm. If the alarm detector is arranged on a building wall, then the actuating body is movable horizontally parallel or substantially parallel to the building wall. If a person wants to flee the danger zone, they will move the actuator body in most cases in the direction of escape. Usually several alarm detectors are arranged in the danger area, so that in case of a dangerous situation also several alarm detectors are triggered. This makes it possible to create a movement profile of the escaping persons, which is visualized by the display unit. Since it can be assumed that the fleeing

Moving persons away from the polluter, the motion profile can be used to locate the hazard in the danger zone. The sensors detect the actuating direction of the actuating body when triggered and feed this information into the first signals, so that this information can be processed by the arithmetic unit.

According to a further embodiment, the evacuation device comprises a display, which indicates the persons located in the danger area, over which way they can safely leave the danger area. For example, the display may be configured to have arrow-shaped directional symbols that allow eight directions, namely, left, right, top, bottom, top left, top right, bottom left, and bottom right, to be displayed. Furthermore, a stop symbol,

for example, by a dot. Further pictograms or evacuation symbols are conceivable. In the neutral position, no symbols light up. In order to increase the intelligibility of the displayed evacuation symbols, the arrow-shaped direction symbols can be displayed in green and the stop symbol in red, based on public traffic signals. As a result, the escape route for persons located in the danger area can be clearly displayed, so that they can intuitively leave the danger area with minimized risk. The visual display of the personal instructions is preferable to the acoustic output, since it is more comprehensible for everyone regardless of their linguistic background and also can be displayed permanently, while acoustic issues must be repeated constantly, which does not Contribute to calm the dangerous situation. Acoustic outputs, however, also lead to an acoustic chaos, which is the greater, the more sounders sound at the same time. In addition, acoustic signals can be misinterpreted, especially if other dangers and the resulting

resulting alarms, such as a fire alarm, trigger sounders. In addition, the visual display attracts the attention of

Less dangerous than an acoustic output, which minimizes the risk of leaving the danger area for the persons concerned. Consequently, in this embodiment, the evacuation device can also be used to implement a silent alarm.

The displays can be installed in the building at regular intervals, especially in the area of corridors, bifurcations and stairs. In addition, it is possible to use the displays of mobile devices of people in the danger area. Nowadays it is easily possible to change the position of

Mobile phones with a sufficient accuracy to determine. Consequently, the display can be updated depending on the position, so that this also the risky people can be displayed a low-risk way out of the danger area. The vulnerable persons can also be supported via displays or screens of permanently installed PCs, with which they are asked to leave their office and then follow the escape route specified by the displays arranged in the corridors. In this case, the displays of PCs also serve to implement a silent alarm. Furthermore, PCs can also as

Information exchanges are used in two directions

works, for example, by an employee with the keyboard of his PC via a pre-programmed mask within the silent alarm a question to the operator in an emergency call center, which is answered in no time by the same in the same way. This is a "bidirectional"

Information exchange, which will be explained further below. Similarly, screens and displays as well as PCs can be "selectively" used by the device according to the invention by different people at different locations different, tailored to their respective immediate situation information is transmitted. In a further embodiment, the device comprises a

Tracking device for tracking the positions of one or more persons in the danger zone. By way of example, the tracking device can be configured in such a way that the task manager can select a person who is displayed to him by the display unit by mouse click. The arithmetic unit has a

Image processing software, which makes it possible to determine the position of the selected person in the hazardous area and track. The selected person is expediently the risk causing, so that the operator at the central unit and / or the mission manager also information about the current position of the hazard on the display unit

For example, it is displayed as a characteristic, interactive icon so that it has a better overview of the dangerous situation. In addition, the device uses the information about the current position of the hazard generator to the

Proposals for action and thus to generate the personal and device-related instructions. If the hazard generator penetrates into a portion of the danger area, which is limited by closable doors, the device can provide appropriate instructions so that the hazard is determined by remotely locking the doors, while the au ßerhalb this section then persons - also by remote controlled Intervention, for example, over the

Evacuation facilities - safely out of the danger zone. For this purpose, depending on the requirement, a previously closed door can also be reopened remotely, also depending on the position of the person (s) causing the hazard.

In the case of several vulnerable persons, several persons can be selected in the same way and their positions tracked. But it is also possible, the position of the hostages in the danger area

track. Thus, the events can be tracked even better. It is also possible to track the position of particularly vulnerable hostages or particularly important hostages. Such hostages could be persons in a managerial position or people with health problems. Special person-related instructions can be generated for these persons.

The central control of the hitherto uncontrollable danger situation consists in particular in that the evacuation symbols of the

Device according to the invention are permanently controlled so that they are in

Dependence on the position of the person or persons causing the danger shows that an escape or evacuation is currently not possible (red stop symbol arranged centrally in the display), or that an escape or evacuation is possible and in which direction or directions it is possible (green arrow-shaped direction symbols in the direction or directions released).

Since the evacuation symbols are mounted not only in the escape and rescue routes, but also in the adjacent rooms, the persons present there receive a prior information. You will then know if it makes sense to enter the escape and rescue routes (one or more green arrow-shaped directional symbols displayed), or better until further notice or until the end of the

Hazard situation remain in the locked room (stop symbol). The evacuation device is not activated until one or more hazards are identified and assigned to them interactive icons, of which as described above control information to the

Evacuation symbols are transmitted. The evacuation device will

preferably already activated immediately after the alarm in the form that the red stop symbol is activated in all displays, and thus is displayed in an entire floor, a whole area or a whole building for all people threatened that an alarm has been triggered and a dangerous situation consists. Thus, all persons, even those who are further away from the danger zone, can take measures for self-rescue without loss of time, for example, by fleeing to secure spaces and closing them.

It is advisable that the tracking device comprises a number of cameras and sensors for distance measurement, preferably ultrasound sensors. With Cameras capture characteristic biometric characteristics of individuals such as body size and proportions, as well as facial features and movement patterns that can be used for follow-up. In addition, a face and body recognition can be applied for more information about the

Endangerment or to get over the hostages, the entrance to the

Can find instructions for action. For example, the chief of operations can look back on the history of the perpetrator of the hazard, if he has already committed delinquency. If he has not yet committed a criminal offense, it seems reasonable to assume that he is a first-time offender. From this, the Einsatzleiter the

Better assessing the perpetrators, predicting their behavior better and taking the appropriate countermeasures.

Cameras are particularly suitable for displaying the danger situation in real time. Cameras allow you to track the progress of a hostage-taking or rampage and identify fires. In addition, cameras help the operations manager to quickly identify if it is a false alarm or not.

Ultrasonic sensors have the advantage that they also work in low light conditions and heavy smoke. In addition, it is possible with ultrasound to perform a very precise distance measurement, so that the position of the

Danger can be determined very accurately. Other distance meters are also conceivable. Compared to cameras, ultrasonic sensors can be made less conspicuous because they do not require complex and visible optics. The cameras and ultrasonic sensors are distributed in the building so that a seamless transfer from one to the next camera or from one to the next ultrasonic sensor is possible, so that an uninterruptible

Follow-up can be realized. In addition, in the transition area a

Position determination of the same hazard or another selected person at least two cameras and ultrasonic sensors are made from different locations. The measurement results can be used for mutual precision and assurance. The basis for this is that cameras and distance meters in the local assembly according to the invention exactly measured and the measurement data are transferred exactly to the digitized building plans.

Furthermore, the tracking device can have sound sensors in order to be able to assign votes to a specific person. Because each voice is individual

Having characteristics, the voice of the hazard can be recognized from the signals of the various microphones, so that the current location of the hazard causer can be detected and a redundancy can be created, for example, if the gunman has destroyed some cameras or other components of the tracking device fails. In addition, the quality of the association can be improved as more biometric features are captured and aligned. Thus, the risk that the tracking device may mistakenly regard a hostage as a hazard is reduced. Even sound sensors can deviate in the background noise from

Determine normal operation. In the case of a hostage-taking or a rampage, the persons directly affected and / or the perpetrators of the danger will speak or shout at a significantly higher volume. As already stated, the sound sensors can therefore also be part of the alarm, which is triggered in this case.

The device according to the invention preferably comprises an information exchange device which communicates bidirectionally with the arithmetic unit

Receives information regarding the dangerous situation and converts it into corresponding first signals, transmits it to the conversion and forwarding device and outputs and / or executes the action instructions in accordance with the second signals. A bidirectionally communicating with the arithmetic unit

Information exchange device may be, for example, a telephone or a PC, on the one hand the persons at risk information about the

On the other hand, the commandant can give instructions for action to the persons at risk.

Bidirectional information exchange devices have the advantage that information can only be obtained and output via a device. Known devices usually only operate monodirectionally. In the device according to the invention a permanent bidirectional information exchange takes place in the course of a dangerous situation, which is an indispensable prerequisite for the device functioning according to the invention. An illustrative example of this is the already described evacuation of a group of vulnerable persons with simultaneous isolation and / or fixing of a group

The permanent bidirectional change of information between the arithmetic unit and the cameras as an information recording device provides in real time the data on location and direction of movement of the

Endangerment, whereby the arithmetic unit on the corresponding

Software elements, such as the integrated tracking software of

Tracking device, permanently sends commands to the cameras to measure the distance between hazard generator and cameras, which in turn leads to the transmission of new data from the video cameras to the central processing unit. At the same time, the arithmetic unit controls the evacuation symbols as a function of the motion data acquired in parallel as described, which in turn reports its switching state, green directional arrows or red stop symbol to the arithmetic unit, so that the switching state is compared and verified with the movement data of the hazard generator and for the operator or mission manager can be visibly displayed. In the same way, the permanent bidirectional exchange of information takes place between the arithmetic unit and the control modules of the doors and gates. Since the arithmetic unit thus carries out a permanent bidirectional exchange of information with two or more different components at the same time, this results in consideration of the

Overall process a permanent multi-directionality.

In a further embodiment of the device according to the invention is the

Conversion and forwarding device designed selectively and multi-channel. It distinguishes between the alarm messages and the additional information (for example video pictures, audio information, etc.) coming from the information recording device and forwards them on different channels. A first channel is used exclusively for the forwarding of Alarm messages that can occur repeatedly in the course of a dangerous situation in chronological order, since under certain circumstances, several people independently operate a manual alarm, for example, if they have independently perceived the same or other hazards. This first channel is designed so that it requires only a very small bandwidth for signal transmission, but the signal in question must reach the central processing unit without loss of time and with high security. If necessary, the first channel can be redundantly or multiply redundantly designed for this purpose. The

Required cable routes may be cable-bound or wireless. These can be both internal routes within a building or complex of buildings, as well as external routes, such as those of a commercial provider.

The additional information of the information recording device will be forwarded on separate channels. Due to the high amount of data the

additional information, in particular the video images, is here a line with high upload rate and fast data transport despite large amounts of data required. Depending on the size of the building to be protected and the resulting

resulting number of components to be used, especially video cameras, multiple connections and lines are required to transmit the required amount of data simultaneously and in real time.

Since dangerous situations can develop very differently and the resulting data volumes and transmission capacity requirements vary greatly, the conversion and relaying device must be able to react dynamically to potentially changing requirements in order to ensure secure, complete and fastest possible data transport. Depending on the current requirement, it must make previously prepared line circuits in fractions of a second, for example switch the alarm transmission to a new line if the signal falls below a certain strength or transmission quality and / or connect additional high-bandwidth lines for video transmission, if the need arises to continue to camera images to add the already running. Simultaneously with the incoming first signals of the information recording device, the conversion and forwarding device processes the second signals emanating from the central processing unit with which the local danger situation is directed, controlled and influenced. Again, the conversion and

Forwarding device in the described selective operation to ensure that the second signals safely, completely and quickly reach the executing components, such as installed in the building displays the evacuation. Also for this purpose, line circuits as described above required to be performed.

In a preferred refinement, the device has one or more storage units for storing the entire flow of information passing through the device. The storage of the information flow serves the

Documentation, so that the mission in all its details can later be understood and analyzed. Thus, wrong decisions can be identified and future missions improved. As a result, it is above all the operator and the operations manager who can further develop their specialist knowledge and the algorithm that runs on the computing unit and that generates the action suggestions can be improved. However, the algorithm can also be fully or partially self-learning, so that it checks the stored information flow with an analysis tool and improves itself. With the device according to the invention, all processes and the associated information flow are logged and stored. In this way, the entire processing of a dangerous situation from the receipt of the first alarm to its conclusion can be objectively and completely documented afterwards. This makes it possible to comprehensively understand and evaluate the activities of the responsible persons such as the head of operations afterwards. This can serve as a basis for a differentiated "maneuvering criticism" and thus leads to the continuous improvement of the system and the persons responsible, but it can also be a valuable aid in the representation and justification of the responsible persons towards third parties, for example those at risk or to be with their loved ones, especially when, despite all verifiable care, care and effort, human lives still suffer. In a preferred embodiment, the information recording device comprises smoke detectors, motion detectors, sound sensors, temperature sensors,

Position transmitters and / or cameras. This non-exhaustive list includes information capture devices that are typically already present in a building, such as smoke detectors or cameras. In many cases, too

Alarm detectors are available, but these are usually used to trigger a fire alarm. It is therefore possible, in addition to the alarms to trigger a fire alarm to install the previously discussed alarm detectors, which are activated in the event of a killing spree or hostage taking. In this case, check the

Device, whether it is in fact a fire or a rampage or a hostage-taking. This plausibility check can be supported by checking the status of the smoke detectors that are also present in many buildings today. Less frequently, temperature sensors are installed in a building. On the one hand, temperature sensors can be used as motion detectors because they interpret the temperature which is usually transmitted by the human body as a signal of the presence of a person. In addition, they can also detect a fire by increasing the temperature to unusual levels. The device recognizes from the information available whether it is actually a fire or not and informs the operations management accordingly.

Motion detectors can on the one hand the presence of a person in one

Detect certain space so that the task leader has information on where people are in the building, which must be evacuated. On the other hand, they can create motion profiles and point out unusual activities. In the case of a killing spree, it may come to movements that clearly from

Normally deviate. The sound sensor can also be configured as a microphone, so that the head of operations can overhear the conversations, so as to better assess the situation. Furthermore, he can also draw conclusions about the further course of action of the hazard, so that he can initiate appropriate countermeasures. Both with sound sensors as Even with microphones explosions and shots can be detected, which can be used on the one hand as a triggering event for the alarm and on the other hand after triggering an information, the input into the generation of

Find action suggestions and instructions. The number and

Frequency distribution of the shots can give an indication of whether the

Endangerers still has more ammunition or not. In addition, on the genus of weapons used and the resulting

Risk potential be closed. In particular, in conjunction with cameras and the tracking device, the operations manager can activate exactly the microphone that is closest to the hazard. Alternatively, the

corresponding microphones are activated automatically, so that the video information recorded by the camera can be backed up with the associated audio information. However, unlike the video information, the audio information is preferably not automatically played to avoid acoustic chaos. Instead, they are assigned by the operator depending on one

Video information is specifically monitored so that it can make a more complete picture of the danger situation and better control it from visual and supplementary acoustic information. Both the video and the

Audio information also allows the operator to access record data prior to the alarm being triggered. This can be technically implemented, for example, by the fact that the conversion and forwarding unit installed in the building permanently records the data of the information recording devices and permanently overwrites them in a previously programmed interval, for example one or two hours.

In a further development of the device according to the invention comprises

Execution device Loudspeakers, screens, signalers or actuators. As already described above, the evacuation device can also have speakers and screens. However, these are used to display or output the personal instructions. In this case, the loudspeakers and screens should help the operations management to influence the hazard. Thus, the operation line can set a calming or a stress-generating soundscape to the danger situation in a certain direction to steer. In addition, it can display screens that are located in the vicinity of the hazard cause at certain intervals to distract him.

With actuators elements existing in the building can be activated or inactivated, in particular in an electromechanical manner. For example, lamps and lights can be targeted on or off to the

Endangering the orientation in the building and to make it difficult for him to notice the approaching forces. If relevant, sprinkler systems can also be activated with the actuators. In addition, with the help of the actuators doors can be closed and locked when the

Hazards in a particular section. He can easily be overwhelmed by approaching special units of the police, for example, is introduced through door slots stunning gas in the closed corridor section, which can also be done via the actuators.

All these measures enable the chief of operations to be able to act from the outside

To be able to influence and actively control the dangerous situation and not just passively follow the course of the dangerous situation until the emergency services arrive on-site, which is almost always too late due to the distance to be covered to save even more human lives.

The forces may be equipped with signalers that are part of a

Navigation device that communicates with a global navigation system such as GPS or a positioning system established in the building.

As a result, the current position of a specific task force can be determined and made available to the deployment manager. It is not only the position of a specific emergency personnel in the danger area that is relevant, but also the position on the way to the danger area, so that the operations management can estimate when a force will arrive at the danger area. Also, the forces can be equipped with data glasses, so that they can be recorded instructions from the commandant in their field of vision. In a preferred embodiment, the information exchange device includes stationary and / or portable computers, stationary phones or mobile devices. Most buildings have stationary and / or portable computers connected to a wired or wireless network. In a

Danger situation, the arithmetic unit of the device according to the invention can be connected to these already existing networks, so that the operation line can issue personal instructions on the screen and thus a silent alarm. Furthermore, the operations line can project questions onto the screen which the affected person can quickly answer yes or no so that the operations management can obtain targeted information from the danger area. Stationary telephones and mobile telephones can also be used to purposefully obtain information from the danger zone. By appropriate control, the operations line personal

Introduce instructions to the screens of the mobile devices in order to point the person or persons concerned out of the building in a low-risk way. The same applies to tablet computers. Especially on mobile devices,

Smartphones and tablet computers can instruct the task force graphically, acoustically or textually what they should do. For this purpose, the floor plan of the building, the current position of the respective task force and the

Hazard cause can be displayed, so that the task force itself make a picture of the danger situation and, for example, can avoid surprising encounters with the hazard.

In a preferred development, the arithmetic unit and / or the

Conversion and forwarding device Access control device. The

Access control means ensure that the device according to the invention can actually only be used by an authorized person in the case of a dangerous situation or for trial and training purposes. It may be provided a password control and / or other identification control, for example by access cards or biometric features. This prevents on the one hand that unauthorized and unauthorized persons can operate the device, on the other hand authorized persons not the device for monitoring Abuse employees or passers-by. This will protect the privacy

Taken into account.

It should be noted at this point that all components of the device can be provided with redundancies in order to reduce the probability of failure. Only then can be safely ruled out that the previously described highly complex bi- and multidirectional information exchange processes are interrupted by Abre Shen the power supply and thus the opportunity to control and influence the dangerous situation is no longer given. The components can be executed and encapsulated several times. In addition, the communication can be done both via fixed electrical lines as well as wirelessly. Preferably, the device has protection means for warding off attacks from the outside. These protection means may be specially sealed housings or secured spaces to prevent immediate access to the components of the device and their physical destruction. However, the protection means may also include firewalls and the like which prevent cyberattacks on the device with the aim of damaging the software in order to disable or manipulate the device.

In particular, it allows the device according to the invention, of the

Operation center active from a communication in the danger area into it, for example by visual information such as signals, texts, images, graphics, etc. or acoustic information such as signals, messages, etc. transported into the danger area and made available to individual or several people become. To transport the information, separate ways, such as data lines can be used, which are set up specifically for the device according to the invention. But there are also ways that already exist, such as public or private data and communication networks via appropriate

Interfaces are integrated into the device according to the invention. The communication mentioned can also be so depending on the evolution of the situation that the information is passed on in chronological order and with adaptation of the content to changing persons, in particular in order to follow a risk that is moving further. This also includes, in particular, the aspect that the communication takes place in a manner which prevents it from being noticed by the hazard producer. The main objectives are to inform and reassure the persons concerned, to prevent panic, to isolate the person or persons causing the danger, to evacuate the affected persons

Persons as well as reducing the risk potential of the situation. Another aspect of the present invention relates to a system for directing a hazardous situation caused by a hazard and the

Performing and / or supporting a deployment in which the hazard situation is limited to a hazardous area such as a building or an area comprising an apparatus for assisting an emergency response situation according to any one of the preceding claims including a number of alarm detectors located in the danger area; which is actively supported by an im

Hazardous area person and / or passively triggered by the exceeding of a selectable threshold, the alarm detectors output first signals that contain information regarding the position of the triggered alarm in the danger zone, an information recording device, which

Receives information regarding the hazardous situation and converts it into corresponding further first signals, a conversion and forwarding device that collects the first signals, bundles and converts them as required into a uniform format and forwards to a computing unit, and an execution device an evacuation device and one or more independent

Power units comprises, a plurality of operation centers, in each of which one of the arithmetic units is arranged, which processes the first signals, prepares the dangerous situation and generates action proposals for supporting the use, a display unit, which represents the prepared by the arithmetic unit hazard situation and generated proposals for action and the information recorded by the information recording device and / or further information relating to the dangerous situation is displayed, and an input unit is arranged with which a user selects the action suggestions be confirmed, rejected, supplemented, modified or replaced by their own proposals for action, with the action proposals after processing by the user in device-related instructions and personal

Conversion instructions are converted and supplied to the arithmetic unit and wherein the arithmetic unit converts the instructions into second signals and to the conversion and forwarding device and / or to one of the

Einsatzzentralen and optionally to other devices forwards, the

Execution means executes the device-related action instructions according to the second signals and the conversion and forwarding means formatted the second signals as required to be from the

Execution means are executable and the evacuation device displays the person-related instructions according to the second signals for those in the danger area or displays and outputs and the conversion and forwarding device the second signals as required formatted so that they can be displayed by the evacuation or displayed and output.

The advantages and technical effects which can be achieved with the system according to the invention, correspond to those which are suitable for the inventive

Device have been set forth. An essential difference, however, is that the conversion and forwarding device can forward the first signals not only to one, but to a plurality of operations centers. Thus, the device is part of a nationwide network, which can be installed at the state or federal level or Europe or worldwide. The system makes it possible to better distribute missions. If, for example, an operations center is busy, the system can transmit the first signals to another operations center, which is ready for use. In addition, the task force of the lead operations center can delegate tasks to the operations management of another operations center, if the danger situation is so complex that it is from a

Command alone can not be handled. In order to avoid responsibility problems, the system clearly defines the decision-making powers of the dispatchers of the operations centers involved. The operations center, which takes on delegated tasks, then assumes the function of a subcenter. The operations center is Basically, first of all a stationary device whose location can be chosen arbitrarily, but is preferably located outside the danger zone. In addition, however, it is advantageous to use mobile emergency centers and move in the vicinity of the danger area, for example, to coordinate the blocking of roads or the clearances of access roads, which is only partially feasible from a spatially distant operations center. In addition, there may always be peculiarities associated with a device of the invention located at a remote location and a distance away

system according to the invention can not be completely reproduced and thus make the presence of at least one of the operation centers necessary on site. Once the sub-center has completed its order, it can log out so that the entire mission is again managed exclusively by the responsible operations center. If required by the situation, the lead operations center may hand over the operations management in whole or in part to a sub-unit, which then becomes the lead operations center. This may be useful, for example, if the operation line has already been in use for a long time and has to pause without a replacement being available in this operation center.

Since the device according to the invention can be operated simultaneously at several locations, for example in the emergency call centers of different cities and / or in a stationary emergency call center and a mobile operation center in one

Vehicle, and the device according to the invention expressly includes the possibility of distributing the control of a dangerous situation to several centers, the permanent multi-directionality also arises on a higher level in a network-like structure. With the previously described permanent bidirectionality and permanent multidirectionality, the device according to the invention goes far beyond the previously known and realized devices.

Preferably, some or all of the components of the previously described apparatus or of the system described above are combined to form one or more units. This makes it possible to realize a modular design.

For example, alarms, smoke detectors, motion detectors,

Sound sensors, temperature sensors and / or cameras to a unit or to a module, which makes it easier to retrofit an existing building. In addition, among other things, the arithmetic unit, the display unit and the input unit can be set up in a transportable container in which the operations center is ready set up and only needs to be put into operation on site. Depending on the risk potential, the units can be encapsulated separately in order to be protected from external attacks. The modular design is not only suitable for retrofitting existing buildings, but also allows the temporary use of the device according to the invention, for example, at events and major events such as Olympic games or the like. The modular design not only simplifies assembly but also disassembly. In addition, the device according to the invention can be rented in whole or in part, which is interesting for organizers of temporary events that bring a risk potential. The

Organizers can also make their own choice and number of units

Determine the level of security that the device provides. The device according to the invention can therefore be used very flexibly.

For example, the displays of the evacuation device can be modularly combined with the cameras of the information recording device, which in turn can be modularly supplemented by a distance measuring unit and / or a loudspeaker. The modularity can for example be implemented so structurally that there is a base plate and / or a frame, which are sized in size according to the maximum possible or meaningful combination of components and record the modules in their different combinations. If certain modules are not required or not wanted for certain combinations, then filler pieces can be mounted in their place, so that for the entire module combination on a base plate or in a frame always a visually uniform

Appearance is created, which can be easily retrofitted at any time. To improve the modularity and its usability, a cable connection box is integrated in one embodiment variant on the base plate or in the frame, in which the connection to power supply lines and / or to one or more data cables and in a further developed embodiment also tool-free cable connectors for all on this Base plate or in this frame having placeable components. This substantially reduces the cost of the combined components, since they are produced in large numbers by the modular design in the same or similar forms and can be assembled, maintained and replaced in case of failure with low working hours.

Another form of combining multiple components into assemblies is to populate a package adapted to the particular requirements of the described invention with a combination of components. The housing is lockable and can be provided with access control means. In addition, the housing can be protected as needed by additional technical and / or structural measures, such as armor, in a sophisticated way against burglary and access. In a

vorzugsweisen execution the unit is factory pre-installed and can be installed after local transport to local supply and / or

Data lines are clamped and put into operation immediately ("turnkey" production) In a further preferred embodiment, the assembly is provided with further measures, such as a seal against

Moisture, thermal insulation, heating and / or cooling and can be used in the Au ßenbereich.

In an additional preferred embodiment, the units are modular, so that they can be coupled and / or ranked with each other. In a further development, a combination of preferably modularly constructed units is used to complete and transportable command centers and / or

Emergency call centers, which can be connected and put into operation after local transport with little time and effort (extended form of "turnkey" production) As already explained, temporary limited major events such as World Championships in a sport are a particular field of application for such modular At the end of the major events, the safety devices of the transportable control panels are no longer needed at this point and can be used elsewhere. Furthermore, office complexes built in container construction for limited periods of time, for about 5 years, can be equipped with such centers on a buy / buy back or leasing basis. In the simpler case, but also a prefabricated room cell, for example, with a combination of a

Information recording device and a conversion and

Forwarding device, supplemented as required by other components, "turnkey" set up in an object to be monitored and connected and thus replaces local construction, usually

Impacts caused by noise and dirt over a longer period of time.

A further aspect of the present invention relates to a method for operating a device and a system according to one of the preceding embodiments, comprising the following steps:

Triggering one or more of arranged in the danger area

Alarm detectors which are actively triggered by a person in the danger area and / or passively by the exceeding of a selectable threshold value, wherein the alarm detectors output the first signals containing information regarding the position of the triggered alarm in the

The advantages and technical effects which can be achieved with the method according to the invention correspond to those which have been discussed for the device according to the invention and for the system according to the invention.

Another aspect of the present invention relates to a computer program for carrying out a method of operating a device or system to assist an insert in the event of a hazardous situation within a system

Hazardous area according to one of the aforementioned embodiments with Program means for starting a computer, the following steps

to run when the computer program is running on the computer:

The advantages and technical effects associated with the invention

Computer program, correspond to those responsible for the

Device according to the invention have been discussed for the inventive system and for the inventive method. The computer program may include augmentation and supplemental programs that provide additional functions to assist the emergency services in a dangerous situation. The computer program is designed so that it can be run not only on PCs, but also on mobile devices such as smartphones and tablet computers. In particular, it may also be embodied-in whole or in part-as an application "app." The program means preferably comprise a self-learning algorithm which itself improves on the basis of an analysis of an application the entire course of a dangerous situation, whether in the respectively achieved situation, as far as the use of the software, by activating further automatisms with high probability a further reduction of time and / or certain predetermined goals are achieved and represents the operator corresponding proposals on the screen. Thus, self-optimization with regard to the degree of automation supports the reduction of the reaction time. Another powerful example of how permanent self-optimization works to produce and maintain ease-of-use in the computer program of the present invention, and how it efficiently supports permanent self-optimization to reduce response time, is the interactive hazard icon on the screen of the display unit in the

Floor plan of a building is set and as described above location and movement of the hazard generator maps. By all the essential functions of the computer program according to the invention are associated with this icon, the operator can operate these icons, for example via a commercial

Computer mouse, the semi-automatic large number of components such as video cameras, evacuation symbols, control modules for doors and gates, etc. automatically semi-automatically or automatically mitbedienen, without having to click them with the mouse individually. By giving the icon of a hazard

For example, in the hallway of a plan shown on the screen continues to advance, for example, based on the permanent updated optical information on the video images, all the components associated with the icon are updated semi-automatically and permanently in response to the advancing position of the threat cause via the computer program. Only in this way can an operator, unlike previously, from an external point one

Control danger situation already a minute after its emergence by intervening on the described invention with all its components including the associated software from the emergency center as described. He does this by securing and / or evacuating the threatened persons in the way described and isolating and / or fixing the person (s) of danger, so that the locally arriving task forces either take over further control of the dangerous situation or in the simplest case only the or the appointed ones

Arresting perpetrators. With the computer program according to the invention, it is possible with a combination of a plurality of components and a plurality of functions of the device according to the invention and / or their control in dependence on each other to a maximum

To provide automation in this and / or other applications, for example in that the semi-automatic mode of operation described above is further automated. This happens primarily because the interactive icon of a hazard on the screen is no longer manually advanced by the operator, but this is done automatically by the tracking software that tracks the identified hazard through the building and captures its changing position data on the cameras with ultrasonic sensors and depending on this, move the interactive icon on the screen. In this case, during the dangerous situation, information about the degree of automation, which is permanently on the screen of the display unit, serves as a decision-making aid for the operator in controlling a previously uncontrollable dangerous situation. According to his own estimation of the automatic mode, he can switch off again and switch between different modes, for example "manual", "semi-automatic", "automatic", depending on the requirements of the developing dangerous situation and / or multidirectionality between multiple components of the

Device according to the invention, the permanent bidirectional control of evacuation symbols and the permanent bidirectional control of the modules of moving parts such as doors and gates.

Furthermore, the invention relates to a telecommunications network for operating a device according to one of the previously described embodiments and / or a previously described system and / or for carrying out a previously described method and / or a previously described computer program for

Supporting an assignment in case of a dangerous situation within one

Hazardous area, where the telecommunications network one or more

Network units comprising, with which some or all components of the device and / or the system communicate with each other and can exchange information relating to the dangerous situation with each other. The communication between the individual components of the device and / or the system, for example between the conversion and forwarding device and the arithmetic unit, is an integral part of the present invention. Admittedly, publicly available telecommunications networks can be used for this purpose, which means a quick set-up and the operation of a device according to the invention and the system according to the invention simplified. However, the operator of the device according to the invention or of the system according to the invention then no longer has control over what happens with the information relating to the dangerous situation during the transmission from one component to the other. They could be intercepted, disturbed or manipulated. In particular, it can not be ruled out that they also end up in the hands of the person causing the hazard, so that he is always informed as to which measures the operations management wants to take. Furthermore it can

that the publicly available telecommunications networks are not always fully available. The hazard generator could deliberately cause a very large traffic, so that the publicly available

Telecommunications networks are at least temporarily overloaded, so that the

The operations management can not smoothly coordinate the operation, from which the

Endangerment an advantage. In addition, the

Endanger the targeted public telecommunications networks by cyber attacks paralyze.

According to the invention, a separate telecommunications network is to be made available, which is optimally adjusted to the special features which occur when operating the device according to the invention and / or the system according to the invention. The transmitted information can be encrypted separately, so that the risk that the information is intercepted, is significantly reduced. Furthermore, the telecommunications network can be specially protected, so that attacks from outside Shen better can be fended off. In addition, the components of the

Telecommunications network, such as antennas, cables and satellites, also be executed separately in order to increase the functional and transmission security. The user of the device according to the invention and / or of the system according to the invention is consequently provided with a telecommunication network configured according to requirements, which he can refer back to if special

Safety requirements should be met.

Furthermore, the present invention relates to the use of the device according to the invention and the system according to the invention for hostage frames and rampage runs. Moreover, the present invention relates to the use of the device according to the invention and the system according to the invention for fire situations.

A further aspect of the present invention relates to an alarm detector for reporting a dangerous situation in a danger area, in particular for use in a device or a system according to one of claims 1 to 10 for directing a danger situation caused by a hazard and

Carrying out and / or supporting a related use, wherein the hazardous situation is limited to a hazardous area such as a building or a surface, the alarm is actively triggered by a person located in the danger zone and a mounted on a support means body arranged a movable on the body An actuating body, which is movable relative to the base body for triggering a person located in the danger zone, and a number of sensors arranged in the base body and / or in the actuating body, the actuating body projecting from the carrier device and the base body and the relative movement of the actuating body from the sensors is detected, whereby the alarm is triggered, the

Actuator at least along two operating directions relative to

Base body is movable, wherein the actuation direction can be detected when triggered by the sensors.

Conventional and widely used alarm detectors have a lower button located behind a pane of glass. In order to trigger an alarm, you must first smash the glass and then press the button. For this, the triggering person must stop. In the U 2013/0169422 A1 an alarm is described, which is activated by the fact that a lever along a predetermined direction and in particular to the ground must be pulled out. Therefore, it takes a certain amount of time to fire, which may be available in case of fire, but not when you are fleeing from a fire

is an armed hostage taker or a gunman who may be hounding you. The alarm detector according to the invention can be activated by applying a specific force to the projecting and therefore freely accessible actuating body. This can happen in passing, so that's the alarm triggering person does not have to stop. This is not just because of

Carrier device is in most cases a building wall, but may also be a pillar, a supporting structure or a retaining wall outdoors.

The sensors must be able to detect movement of the actuator body. This can be done for example by a piezoelectric element or an inertial sensor. Another possibility is that at the base body and on

Operating body respectively contacts are mounted, which can be brought into contact with each other by the relative movement of the actuator body.

Characterized in that the actuating body is movable relative to the base body at least along two actuating directions, the actuating direction when triggered by the sensors can be detected. It is preferred that the actuator body along two directions of actuation directions is movable, which corresponds to the directions along which a person can pass the alarm. If the alarm is arranged on a building wall, then the actuating body is parallel to

Building wall horizontally movable. In the vast majority of cases, when a person wants to flee the danger zone, they will enter the actuator body

Move the direction of escape. Usually several alarm detectors are arranged in the danger area, so that in case of a dangerous situation also several alarm detectors are triggered. This makes it possible to create a movement profile of the escaping persons, which is visualized by the display unit. Since it can be assumed that the escaping persons are moving away from the risk causing agent, the movement profile can be used to localize the hazard in the danger zone. The relevant first signals generated by the alarm detector contain the information in which direction the actuating body has been moved when triggered. This information can be further processed accordingly.

The invention will be explained in more detail below on the basis of preferred embodiments with reference to the attached drawings. Show it Figure 1 shows an embodiment of a device according to the invention for supporting an insert in case of a dangerous situation, Figure 2 shows an embodiment of a system according to the invention

FIG. 1 shows the structure of a device 10 according to the invention for supporting an insert in a danger area 12 on the basis of a schematic diagram. The device 10 comprises a number of alarm detectors 13 and a

Information recording device 14, which are arranged in the danger area 12, for example in a building or a ship. Using one of the alarms 13 For example, the device 10 can be activated, with the alarm detector for this purpose generating first signals, which also contain information about the position of the relevant device

Include alarm detector 13 in the danger area 12. The

Information receiving device 14 may include a number of smoke detectors,

Motion detectors, sound sensors, temperature sensors, position transmitters and / or cameras or the like include, which are not shown separately for the sake of clarity. They all serve, in the case of a dangerous situation, to receive information in this regard and to convert it into corresponding further first signals, which are sent either via electrical lines 15, as shown, or wirelessly (radio paths) to a conversion and forwarding device 18.

Furthermore, the device 10 comprises an information exchange device 16, which is likewise arranged in the danger area 12. Also the

Information exchange device 16 serves to receive information in the event of a dangerous situation and to convert it into corresponding first signals, which are either sent via electrical lines 15, as shown, or wirelessly to conversion and forwarding device 18. The information exchange device 16 may comprise a number of stationary and / or portable computers, stationary telephones or mobile devices or the like, which are not shown separately for the sake of clarity.

In the example shown, the conversion and forwarding device 18 is arranged in the danger area 12, wherein other arrangements are likewise conceivable. The conversion and forwarding device 18 comprises an independent power supply unit 20 which, in the event that the general power network in the danger area 12 should not work, the conversion and

Forwarding device 18 is supplied with electrical energy. Similarly, all other components of the device 10 can be connected to the independent one

Power supply unit 20 are connected or have their own independent power supply unit 20.

The conversion and forwarding device 18 bundles all of the information receiving device 14 and the information exchange device 16 generated first signals and converts them as required into a uniform format. The formatted first signals are then sent to a computing unit 22

forwarded and processed there. The arithmetic unit 22 is arranged in the illustrated embodiment au outside the danger area 12, wherein an arrangement within the danger area 12 in a separately protected place is conceivable. Again, the forwarding can be wired or wireless or combined. In the example shown, the arithmetic unit 22 is in one

Operations center 24 is arranged, which can be housed in a suitably decorated room or designed to be mobile, for example in one

Emergency vehicle.

As a result of the processing of the first signals a), the arithmetic unit 22 prepares all incoming information for a comprehensive and clear presentation of the dangerous situation and b) generates action proposals with which the

Dangerous situation can be controlled and mitigated as fast as possible, risk-free and damage-free. The recycled hazardous situation and the

Proposals for action are displayed by a display unit 26, which is likewise located in the operations center 24 and which can be viewed there by an operations management. Typically, the operations management team is formed by a team comprising a responsible operations officer and a number of employees to be assisted and assisted. The chief of operations or the staff can immediately and comprehensively record the danger situation and the

Accept, reject, supplement, amend or replace action proposals by means of an input unit 28 with their own suggestions for action, with the task force having the last word here. After examination and processing of the action proposals, the operation management confirms this by means of the input unit 28, which usually performs an operator of the operation, which from the action proposals personal and device-related instructions are converted by the arithmetic unit 22 into second signals and to the conversion and forwarding device 18th to get redirected. This converts the second signals so that the information exchange device 16 can process them. In addition, the device 10 has an execution device 30, which also process the second signals and the device-related

Can execute instructions. Execution device 30 differs from information exchange device 16 in that it usually only executes the device-related instructions, but can not receive any information. In this respect, the information recording and the

Execution device 30 monodirectional with the conversion and

Forwarding device 18 and the computing unit 22 communicating

Devices, while the information exchange device 16 is a bidirectionally communicating device, which is indicated by the arrows. The

Execution device 30 may include speakers, monitors, signalers or

Include actuators, which are not shown separately for the sake of clarity.

In addition, the device 10 has an evacuation device 31 (see also FIG. 3) which displays or displays and outputs the person-related instructions in accordance with the second signals for the persons located in the danger zone 12, the conversion and relay device 18 sending the second signals as required formatted to be from the

Evacuation device 31 can be displayed or displayed and output. The evacuation device 31 may also have loudspeakers and displays or screens, which are not shown separately in FIG. 1 for the sake of clarity.

The information exchange device 16, the execution device 30 and the evacuation device 31 make the person-related instructions in the danger area 12 audible or visible or carry the device-related

Instructions directly from. Via loudspeakers or screens, the personal instructions can be used by the persons at risk

Hazardous area 12 or in the danger area operating emergency services are transmitted, while a device-related instruction is directly executed by an actuator that, for example, a door is locked. The actuator, such as an electromagnetically actuated latch or a

Lock cylinder, but can also be designed so that it is able to actively report the current status, so that in this case the actuator not only one Execution device 30 represents, but a bidirectionally communicating with the arithmetic unit 22 information exchange device 16th

In addition, the device comprises a tracking device 33, with which the positions of one or more persons in the danger area 12 can be tracked and displayed on the display unit 26 to the operator in a clearly recognizable manner. The tracking device may include, for example, cameras, ultrasound or sound sensors not shown in more detail, with which biometric features of a person can be recorded and compared again and again, so that a selectable person can be identified again and again and their position can be determined.

Furthermore, the arithmetic unit 22 has a memory unit 32 with which the entire information flow can be documented. From the stored

Information flow can provide valuable insights that can be important for future operations. In addition, the algorithm stored on the arithmetic unit 22, with which the action suggestions are generated, can be optimized with the aid of the stored information flow. The

Conversion and forwarding device 18 is also equipped in the example shown with a corresponding memory unit 32.

In addition, the arithmetic unit 22 includes access control means 34, with which the unauthorized access to the computing unit 22 is prevented, so that the device 10 can not be misused by unauthorized persons and used only in a dangerous situation. In the example shown, the conversion and

Forwarding device 18 equipped with access control means 34. In addition, the arithmetic unit 22 also has an independent power supply unit 20.

The device 10 is equipped with protection means 36 which fend off attacks from the outside. To protect the device 10 against sabotage, the

Protective means 36 particularly encapsulated housing or secure spaces include, for example, an appropriately equipped equipment room. The protection means 36 may also include firewalls and the like, cyber attacks on the To prevent device 10 from harming the software in order to disable or manipulate device 10.

The device 10 according to the invention can be operated as follows: As soon as a person recognizes in the danger area 12 that a dangerous situation exists, it triggers one of the alarm detectors 13 installed in the danger area 12, which

is used for example in the event of a killing spree or hostage taking. It can also be provided fire alarm in case of fire. By triggering the alarm detector 13, the device 10 is activated, so that the

Information recording device 14 and the information exchange device 16 collect all information regarding the danger situation. It is

equally conceivable that the alarm 13 is not triggered by a person, but automatically, for example, when the alarm 13 registers activities that differ significantly from the normal case. This can be the case, for example, when a sound sensor assigned to the alarm sensor 13 increases

Determines the volume caused by a shot or a scream.

The information receiving device 14, the alarm 13 and the

Information exchange means 16 generate first signals which are forwarded to the conversion and forwarding means 18. There they go

Requirement converted into a uniform format and forwarded to the arithmetic unit 22, where the danger situation of the operation line comprehensively presented via the input unit 26 action proposals are submitted, which he can accept, change or reject. By confirming the action proposals personal and device-related instructions are converted by the arithmetic unit 22 into second signals and forwarded to the conversion and forwarding device 18, which then formatted the second signals so that they from the information exchange device 16, the

Execution device 30 and the evacuation device 31 can be implemented.

In the illustrated example, the device 10 includes another device 40, which, for example, as a mobile operations center in a service vehicle or as a mobile terminal such as a smartphone or a tablet computer may be formed. The additional device 40 may be used by a member of the deployment line who is not in the operations center 24. The further device 40 is involved in the communication between the conversion and forwarding device 18 and the arithmetic unit 22, so that the member of the operation line, which uses the further device 40, has the same level of information as the members of the operation line, located in the Operations center 24 are located. It is conceivable that the dispatcher uses the other device 40 so that he can conduct the mission from any location. In the example shown, the other device 40 is outside the danger zone 12, but it is also conceivable that it is within the danger zone, for example, when the head of operations or a member of the operations line enters into direct negotiations with the hazard. The flow of information is via a telecommunications network 42, which comprises suitable network units (not shown in detail) such as electrical lines, antennas, satellites and the like.

This entire process takes place in a short time, so that 10 countermeasures can be taken very quickly after activation of the device. Since the triggered alarm 13 also provides information regarding its location in the danger zone 1 2 to the conversion and forwarding device 18, the task manager first the available information from the environment of the triggered alarm 13 are displayed. This is based on the finding that the hazard is in most cases in the immediate vicinity of the triggered alarm 13 and thus the head of the task

Identify the source of danger as quickly as possible. This eliminates, for example, a time-consuming review of the images supplied by the cameras installed in the danger zone 12 or the number of images to be tested until the discovery of the hazard is significantly reduced. As a result, the task force has the opportunity to get an accurate and up-to-date picture of the danger situation from a variety of information, giving it the information clearly displayed via the display unit. In this case, the arithmetic unit 22 generates action proposals, so that the task line is not overwhelmed by a flood of information. She is able to appropriate

Provide personal instructions both to the persons in danger area 1 2 and to the emergency services.

All instructions from the operations management are based on

Real-time information so that it is always up to date and can instruct the emergency services and the people at risk with each other. from

Triggering the first alarm until the intervention of the responsible persons and the management of the dangerous situation exists an uninterrupted chain of information which is constantly updated and guarantees the same level of information to all involved persons permanently. At a very early stage, comprehensive information on a dangerous situation is available which can be used without loss of time to prepare the responsible persons for intervention in a dangerous situation and to ensure the greatest possible safety and effectiveness, and the

To cope with dangerous situations and save lives.

FIG. 2 shows a system 38 according to the invention for supporting an insert in the case of a dangerous situation within a danger zone 12 on the basis of FIG

Schematic diagram shown. The system 38 in this case comprises a device 10, which corresponds in essential points to the device 10 shown in FIG. 1, with only the essential components being shown for the sake of clarity. A key difference is that the conversion and

Forwarding device 18 can communicate not only with a computing unit 22, but with multiple computing units 22, in different

Einsatzzentralen 24 are arranged. In the example shown, a first, a second and a third operation center 24i, 24 ₂ and 24 ₃ are present. Consequently, the device 10 can be integrated into a nationwide network, so that redundancy can be created here if an operations center 24 is busy or otherwise inoperative. Since the operations centers 24i, 24 ₂ , 24 ₃ can communicate directly with each other, several operations centers 24 can be involved in the deployment, so that tasks can be delegated. In the illustrated Example, the use of central 24i, 24 ₂ configured stationary while the

Operation center 24 _{3 is} mobile and can be arranged, for example in Mannschaftsswagen, with which the emergency services are transported to the danger area 12.

This allows the emergency services to be prepared for transport during transport. Alternatively, the mobile operations center 24 ₃ may be housed in a portable container. The various operations centers 24 always have the same level of information. However, if one of the operations centers is to fulfill 24 delegated tasks, it is possible to send to the respective operations center 24 only the information which is relevant to its tasks. For example, the operations center 24i the

Main mission center, which coordinates the mission, while the operations center 24 ₂ acts as a sub-center. In particular, the system 38 according to the invention allows the operations management to give both the endangered persons and the emergency services person-related instructions, so that the danger situation can be defused. Furthermore, the operations management can delegate tasks to a sub-center and remotely control a variety of components in the danger area.

The already described in Figure 1 further device 40 is integrated into the system 38, so that all three operational centers 24i ₃ to 24 and the further device 40 have the same information. In the example shown, the mobile third operation center 24 ₃ does not communicate directly with the conversion and

Forwarding device 18, but indirectly via the remaining operations centers 24i and 24 ₂ and the other device 40. A direct communication between the third operations center and the conversion and forwarding device 18 is of course also possible. However, since all three operation centers 24i to 24 ₃ and the other device 40 communicate with each other, a redundancy is present, so that in the event that a connection should be interrupted, the information is exchanged by other means between the operations center and the other device 40 can.

FIG. 3 shows in more detail an exemplary embodiment of a display 44 of the evacuation device 31, which is installed, for example, in corridors of buildings can be. The display 44 comprises a total of eight triangular panels 100 to 800, which can be activated individually or in combination, for example, such that they light up green. In the example shown, the triangular fields 100 to 800 are formed by right-angled triangles, which are arranged so that the right angle points outward. Consequently, the triangular fields represent 100 to 800

arrow-shaped directional symbols, so that eight directions right, bottom, left, top, top right, bottom right, bottom left and top left can be displayed, whereby the person in the danger area 12 people clearly one

Direction of escape can be specified. Furthermore, the display includes a

square field 900, which is located within the triangular fields 100-800. Alternatively, the square box 900 may also be circular or cross-shaped. Preferably, the field 900 is activated so that it is highlighted in red. In this way, a stop symbol is generated, which can be used to indicate that the route is blocked in this direction and is therefore not available as an escape route. In the non-activated state, no fields are stored, for example, when there is no dangerous situation. The individual fields can be formed with a suitably colored transparent plastic, which is provided with a suitable

Illuminant are backlit. Alternatively, a matrix of a selectable number of LEDs, for example 9 x 9 LEDs, can be provided. The LEDs are red or green in the corresponding fields, generating fields 100 through 900. To increase your attention, the fields may also blink. In a further embodiment, the display of the evacuation device can also be realized by a small TFT screen such as in vehicle navigation systems.

In FIGS. 4a) and 4b), a first exemplary embodiment of a

alarm alarm 13i according to the invention shown in detail. The alarm detector 13i has a base body 46, which can be attached to a support device 48, for example a building wall. Furthermore, the alarm detector 13i comprises an actuating body 50 which is movably connected relative to the base body 46. Furthermore, the alarm detector comprises a number of sensors 52, in this case two first contacts 541 and a second contact 54 ₂ . The actuating body 50 projects beyond the carrier device 48 and the base body 46. To trigger the alarm 13i a person must move the actuator body 50 to the base body 46, this direction of movement is represented by the arrows F in Figure 4a). This can be done by beating the person with his fist on the actuator body 50.

In FIG. 4b), the alarm detector 13i according to the first exemplary embodiment is shown in the released position. One recognizes that by the movement of the

Actuator 50 toward the base 46 of the second contact 54 ₂ comes into contact with the two first contacts 54i, whereby an alarm is triggered.

Both the base body 46 and the actuating body 50 can be designed as plastic injection-molded parts. They can be produced inexpensively and color-freely designed.

To avoid false triggering, the actuator body 50 to the

Be primed body 46, wherein the compound is designed so that it can be triggered by a person in the danger area people without much effort, but by overcoming a noticeable resistance. The connection is thus destroyed when triggered, so that the alarm 13i must be replaced as soon as it has been triggered. The connection between the base body 46 and the actuating body thus forms a predetermined breaking point. Alternatively, this locking cams and grooves can be provided. The alarm 13i may include a visual display, the triggering person a

Feedback indicates that the alarm 13i has been triggered successfully. For this purpose, the display 44 of the evacuation device 31 can be used.

In another embodiment, the actuating body 50 may be spring-loaded, so that a person located in the danger area must overcome the force of the spring when triggered. Once the alarm 13i has been triggered, the

Actuator moves back from the spring back to the starting position, so that in this case after the activation no no replacement of the alarm 13i is necessary. Not shown is the way in which the sensors 52 and the contacts 54i, 54 _{2 are} connected and wired. For example, it is possible to use printed circuit boards and corresponding microswitches which, like a fire alarm system, can be placed on a loop, that is to say on a single line with bus signals, which reduces the wiring expenditure compared to a star-shaped wiring to a fraction.

In Figure 5a), a second embodiment of the alarm according to the invention is the 13 ₂ illustrated by a schematic diagram. The basic structure of the

Alarm detector 13 ₂ corresponds to that of the first embodiment 13i, however, the actuator body 50 is rotatably mounted about the point P mounted on the base body 46. Consequently, the actuator body 50 can be moved in two directions relative to the base body 46, which in turn is shown by the arrows F. In addition, the base body 46 has three first contacts 54n-54i ₃ . The second contact 54 ₂ is configured such that it has a first contact surface 56 i and a second contact surface 56 ₂ .

In FIGS. 5b) and 5c), the alarm indicator 13 _{2 is in} accordance with the second one

Embodiment shown in a triggered state. In the event that the actuating body 50 has been actuated along the actuating direction Ei (see FIG. 5b)), the first contact surface 56i comes into contact with the first contacts 54n and 54i ₂ , while in the case that the actuating body 50 moves along the

Actuation direction E ₂ (see Figure 5c)), the second contact surface 56 _{2 of} the second contact 54 ₂ comes into contact with the first contacts 54i ₂ and 54i ₃ . As a result, the alarm detector 13 _{2 is} able to provide information about which direction the actuator body 50 has been moved when triggered. These

Information allows a conclusion on the direction of escape from the

Dangerous area fleeing persons who has pressed the alarm 13 ₂ , to which in turn can be closed to the position of the hazard. In this case too, it is possible to mount the actuating body 50 on the base body 46 in such a way that a certain force must be overcome for triggering in order to avoid false triggering. For this purpose, a spring mechanism can be used. Alternatively, in this embodiment as well, the actuating body 50 may be molded onto the base body 46 so that the connection must be destroyed when it is triggered.
