How to keep mine machinery operators from heatstroke in high temperature weather 

The weather in the heat of summer in a period of time, all enter the barbecue mode, this time there are a lot of people spent every day in sweat, such as mining equipment operating personnel, police, firefighters and construction workers, cooks, cleaners and so on, they are all rushed to the staff in the front line, despite the hot weather hot struggle at the front, sweat.

In the near future, there have been a number of fatal cases of heat ejection disease in various parts of the country. In July 21st, a 10 year old boy in Jiangxi province had a fever attack. In from July 23rd to 25th, 4 cases of heat stroke in Zhenjiang appeared, 3 of them died. In July 24th, a 54 year old man in Jiangxi was killed due to heat stroke.

What is a heat shooting disease? Experts tell us that heat stroke is a severe heatstroke, which refers to the body temperature regulation dysfunction caused by high temperature, and excessive heat accumulation in the body, which leads to nerve damage. As a fatal disease, the mortality rate is between 20% and 70%, and the patients over 50 years old can be as high as 80%.

As the mining machinery manufacturing enterprises, it is necessary to remind the mining equipment operating personnel, the heat of the summer sun, in hot environment even the sun baked under the continuous working time is too long, the possibility of heat stroke is very large. It is hoped that all enterprise units can do a good job of preventive measures to prevent the staff from having heatstroke.

1, during the high temperature period, we should arrange the rest time reasonably. We should take morning shift, early morning work, late afternoon work and late work. It's a way to avoid the hot and hot period at noon, and try to keep the operator from working in high temperature for a long time.

2, according to the conditions of shade facilities added in the workplace, to ensure that equipment and operating personnel in the shade.

3, for mine equipment operators issued sunstroke medicines, ready to heat food and beverages, such as Huoxiangzhengqi water, shidishui, Dan, heat disease, wind and other, which have the effect of lowering heat detoxification; in addition, Xiasangju granules mung bean soup, salt water, fire, and chrysanthemum, grain honeysuckle tea boiling water etc..

4, the construction site set up the rest shed, drinking water point, to ensure the supply of tea, as far as possible to ensure the cooling of the work and rest.

5, the high temperature period found that workers feel sick, in a timely manner according to the method of first aid sunstroke knowledge governance or consult a doctor.

6, during the high temperature weather, we should pay attention to fresh vegetable food in order to ensure good health and avoid the decrease of resistance due to diet and other reasons, and it is more likely to suffer from heatstroke.

Most of the mine equipment in the open operation, in the summer high temperature weather as far as possible to reduce its operation time, thus also avoid the operators of long time high temperature operation. Red Star reminded that heat stroke is the two level of engineering construction. Once heatstroke occurs, the patient should be moved to a ventilated, cool and dry place immediately after the occurrence of heatstroke.
