| Abstract(J) | COVID-19に対応する自治体，医療機関を支援するため，感染者搬送車両を開発した．感染または感染の疑いのある市民を医療機関などへ搬送する際に，運転手への感染を防止する仕様を開発し，それを既存車両に組み込んだ感染者搬送車両を２週間で自治体へ納入した．この短期間での開発と提供のため，感染防止手法として既存の車両の運転席背面にフラットな隔壁を取り付け，車載のエアコンの送風能力を活用するというシンプルな機構を採用した．感染防止機能の指標となる隔壁前後の差圧は目標とした手術室の管理目標値2.5 Pa以上を，キャビンの換気能力は目標の12回/h以上を達成した．この車両を2020年４月から12月までに計158台を仕立て，25都道府県に提供した． Translation |
| Abstract(E) | Honda has developed a vehicle for transporting infected persons in order to support local governments and medical institutions responding to COVID-19. Honda first developed specifications to protect drivers from infection while transporting infected persons or persons suspected to be infected to medical institutions and the like, then incorporated the specifications into an existing production vehicle and delivered the infected person transport vehicle to local governments within two weeks. In order to develop and provide the vehicle in a short period of time, simple infection-prevention mechanisms were adopted. These consisted of a flat partition attached to the rear of the driver’s seat in the existing vehicle and the ventilation functions of the vehicle’s air conditioner. Infection prevention performance indices were the differential pressure between the spaces fore and aft of the partition and the cabin ventilation capacity. The differential pressure target of over 2.5 Pa (standard for medical operating room) and the cabin ventilation capacity target value of over 12 times/h were achieved. Between April and December of 2020, 158 of these vehicles were assembled and provided to 25 municipalities and prefectures. |
