Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9729946A1] An evacuation arrangement for evacuation of persons from "express boats", ferries or like vessels, is arranged in the starting position in an inactive position substantially at the level of the deck (12) of the ship. A hatch member (14), which is inlaid in a side (11) of the ship and which is pivotally mounted about a lower substantially horizontal axis (14a), is swingable from an inactive position in the side (11) of the ship to an active use position outside the side (11) of the ship by means of power-driven swinging mechanisms (14b, 14c). The gangway (15) forms carrier means for a raft package (22a) fastened in this, which is readily adjustable from an inactive storage position internally in the ship to an active use position endways outside the gangway (15). It is preferred that the hatch member (14) forms carrier means for a gangway (15) which is telescopically outwardly movable, telescope sections (15a-15c) of which are each provided with two opposite side portions (17-20) and an intermediate rigid bottom (16).
