First claim

We claim:

1. A rescue capsule for shelter in tunnel construction, comprising a housing which is hollow;
wherein a cavity of the housing comprises an equipment compartment which is located at an upper portion of the cavity and a passenger compartment which is located at a lower portion of the cavity; an exterior of the housing is provided with an external skeleton;
the exterior of the housing is further provided with an external indicating sign and an external rescue indicator;
the housing is further provided with an explosion-proof sealing door;
an oxygen cylinder, a power supply, a maintenance box, a first air purifier and a medical box are provided in the equipment compartment; areas where the maintenance box and the medical box of the equipment compartment are provided communicate with the passenger compartment; and
a light, a second air purifier, a gas sensor, a communication device and a survival support device are provided in the passenger compartment; the light, the first air purifier, the second air purifier, the gas sensor and the communication device are respectively connected to the power supply; the oxygen cylinder and the gas sensor are respectively connected to the second air purifier.

2. The rescue capsule of claim 1 , wherein the housing comprises an inner heat-preserving layer and an outer pressure-resistant layer.

3. The rescue capsule of claim 1 , wherein the gas sensor comprises a CO sensor, a CO 2 sensor, and a CH 4 sensor.

4. The rescue capsule of claim 1 , wherein a switch is respectively provided between the power supply and the light, the first air purifier and the second air purifier.

5. The rescue capsule of claim 1 , wherein a seat is provided at a lower portion of the passenger compartment, and the survival support device is arranged below the seat.

6. The rescue capsule of claim 1 , wherein the explosion-proof sealing door is provided with a bulletproof glass window and a handle.

7. The rescue capsule of claim 1 , wherein a reflective coating is coated on the external indicating sign.

8. The rescue capsule of claim 1 , wherein the external indicating sign is respectively arranged on two sides of the explosion-proof sealing door of the housing, wherein the external indicating sign is an indicating arrow, and respective indicating signs of two sides of the explosion-proof sealing door are directed to the explosion-proof sealing door.

9. The rescue capsule of claim 1 , wherein the rescue capsule is respectively arranged at left and right sides of a lower portion of a tunnel excavation trolley.

10. The rescue capsule of claim 1 , wherein the communication device is a wireless communication device or a wired communication device; when the communication device is a wired communication device, a communication interface is provided on the housing; and the communication interface is connected to the communication device and an external communication cable outside the rescue capsule.
