My family has a fire helmet from the Qing Dynasty, and I want to donate it to the Fire Education Center for free. On the 29th, the reporter received a call from Mr. Hou, a citizen of Nanchang. On the same day, Mr. Hou gave the bronze helmet to the staff of the fire cultural relics collection office of the construction leading group of Jiangxi Fire Education Museum. The reporter saw that the helmet was very smooth and looked like the helmet of an ancient general. There is a flame pattern on the top of the helmet, and there is a five-pointed star and the words "fire brigade" in the front shield area. There are two fire axes above the pentagram. Mr. Hou told reporters that he saw this helmet in the Tengwangge Antique Market in 1998, and thought it was very collectible, so he bought it for more than 1000 yuan. Appraised by experts from Shanghai Fire Museum, the helmet was made in the late Qing Dynasty.
Hou, deputy secretary-general of Jiangxi Collection Research Association, said that helmets have high historical value and research value. It can be seen that successive governments have attached great importance to fire control work.
On the 28th, the Provincial Fire Protection Cultural Relics Collection Office also received a phone call from Gaomen Grain and Oil Warehouse in Poyang County, Shangrao City, saying that the unit had a fire pump and a fire water gun before liberation, which were sent to the local fire department on the same day. On the 29th, Poyang County Fire Brigade drove it to the provincial fire protection cultural relics collection office. The captain of Poyang County Fire Brigade told the reporter: This fire pump weighs more than 300 kilograms, all made of iron, while the fire water gun is made of copper.
On the 29th, people from Jiangxi Collectors' Research Association called this newspaper, saying that its activities were very meaningful. The seminar will call on collectors in the whole province to donate old photos, old documents and old-fashioned fire fighting equipment related to fire fighting. The high-tech fire helmet made in France is similar to Star Wars equipment.
According to the British "Daily Mail" report, experts from French MSA Safety Equipment Company made a high-tech helmet, which looks like Star Wars equipment. However, this fashionable helmet is worn on firemen's heads. This helmet can withstand the high temperature of 1000 degrees Celsius, but at this high temperature, the temperature inside the helmet is only 35 degrees Celsius.
Inspired by the cartoon character "Detective Gargit", this helmet also allows firefighters to pull down the cheeks of the golden helmet through joysticks on both sides of the helmet for extra protection. Flashlights are clamped on both sides of this helmet, and microphones, miniature phones and cameras are attached to this helmet, so that firefighters can keep in touch with the outside world. This helmet is priced at 130, providing comprehensive protection, including the head, face and neck of firefighters. In addition, the reinforced eye protection screen is specially designed to protect eyes from "reflected flash" caused by flying objects, radiant heat and explosion.
The chin strap, perforated net and soft and durable foam make this high-tech fire helmet more comfortable than the previous similar products. According to the latest news, the Suffolk Fire and Rescue Department of the United Kingdom purchased this helmet named "Gallet F 1-SF", with a total of 850 helmets, and each firefighter will be equipped with a helmet. The traditional fireman's helmet is made of heat-resistant plastic.
