Doomsday Bunker Upgrade

In the test field of the research center, the staff were unloading several silver balls as tall as a person from the helicopter cabin.

"Academician, all the emergency survival capsules that can be brought back are here." The crew reported to Chen Xin that these spheres were all the emergency survival capsules they could bring back.

Chen Xin looked at the silver ball unloaded from the cabin, nodded and said, "Thanks for your hard work, go and have a good rest, and send these to my laboratory."

"Yes, academician." The staff on the side agreed, and after loading the balls in a small cart, they were transported to the elevator on the side.

Although these balls are actually very light and can be rolled easily, the staff still did not make any move to roll these balls directly to Chen Xin's laboratory.

When Chen Xin checked the Titan used for mountain rescue and asked about the situation from the driver, when he returned to the laboratory, these silver balls had already been sent to the laboratory, and several researchers had also sent them to the laboratory. The examination of these spheres began.

Chen Xin changed into the experimental operation suit, put on the protective equipment, and then walked to one of the spheres, and asked a researcher who was inspecting, "How are these emergency survival cabins?"

These emergency survival cabins are the same batch of old candied wild survival cabins that were sent to Chen Xin before, but after Chen Xin upgraded and improved them, the practicability of these things has changed, so they are also used as Emergency survival supplies were provided to the expedition team to conduct actual tests while providing guarantees.

Although neither Chen Xin nor the Disaster Response Research Institute hoped to conduct an actual test in this way, it was obvious that after the expedition team encountered an avalanche, they immediately used these emergency survival capsules that could be used to escape.

So even though the first use test was not what Chen Xin expected, but since it has already been used, it is better not to waste this precious opportunity to check the use of these emergency survival cabins.

These emergency survival cabins were no longer the old preserved vegetables that Chen Xin had seen before. The used survival cabins were all silver balls full of gas.

This layer of silver is not painted, but a layer of special heat insulation material. The reason why it is silver is to insulate heat radiation.

Chen Xin picked up a utility knife and tried to scratch on this layer of material, but it didn't leave any marks.

Chen Xin was very satisfied with this. He didn't scratch lightly just now. Instead, he scratched with the strength to pierce the outer layer of the emergency survival cabin, but this didn't break the layer of material, enough to That means it's reliable enough.

In this way, even if you encounter some broken ice or stone tips in the wild, at least you have a certain ability to resist.

But even so, Chen Xin used another tool to cut open the outer layer of heat insulation material.

It was just a little unexpected that although the outer layer of the emergency survival cabin was scratched, causing its interior to leak air, the entire survival cabin still maintained a spherical shape and did not collapse.

Chen Xin was not surprised by this, but continued to peel off the outer layer of the entire emergency survival cabin, revealing the black grid inside.

These black grids are distributed in a triangular shape, and each line is about the thickness of a ballpoint pen refill. It looks like a layer of grids is woven in the inner layer of the emergency survival cabin with black lines, making it an emergency living room. The structural support of the survival module is the same.

In fact, it is not wrong to say that. The grid formed by these black lines is indeed the structural support of the emergency survival cabin, but it is not the line used, but the non-Newtonian liquid material used in the previous disaster response research institute.

This kind of material will harden quickly after being impacted, and Chen Xin took advantage of this to make a layer of triangular grid-shaped pipes with flexible materials in the inner layer of the emergency survival cabin, and then filled these pipes with this material. A non-Newtonian liquid material.

In this way, when not in use, the flexible material and liquid non-Newtonian liquid material can be easily folded without taking up much space, and can be installed on a backpack as a car airbag.

But when it is released and inflated, the original liquid non-Newtonian liquid material will quickly solidify and harden due to the backlog of internal gas, and become the support that supports the structural strength of the emergency survival cabin.

This non-Newtonian liquid material is so strong when hardened that it is difficult to break or deform it even when pressed hard.

This makes it possible that even if the outer layer of the emergency survival cabin is damaged and the inner air leaks, it can still have a certain outer layer strength to protect the people inside from being hurt by external shocks.

Of course, this is weaker in terms of defense than the original design of the Disaster Response Institute where the outer layer was completely filled with this material, but considering the cost, this design is still more economical.

Originally, Chen Xin wanted to use memory metal as the structural support of the emergency survival cabin. This material has excellent performance, can quickly recover its shape when the temperature changes drastically, and has the strength and toughness of metal.

Even if things made of memory metal are crushed or crumpled, they can automatically recover as long as the temperature changes.

This is a material that has been around for a long time before the disaster, but because of manufacturing costs, this material has not been used on a large scale.

Chen Xin was also concerned about this, so he did not use memory metal as the raw material, but used the original non-Newtonian liquid material in a more economical way.

Judging from the current usage, the performance of this non-Newtonian liquid material is very good, and it has perfectly met Chen Xin's design requirements.

If there is a deficiency, it may be that this material cannot be recovered after it hardens, and it is a disposable material, making the entire emergency survival cabin unable to be recycled and reused.

Chen Xin didn't pay too much attention to this point. After all, this thing is used to save lives, and it can only be used once at most. Who would use this thing every day?

However, apart from these problems, Chen Xin is also very concerned about the performance of the expedition members who stayed in the emergency survival cabin for one night, to see if there is any structural improvement.

At the beginning, Chen Xin only considered the use of emergency escape, but did not consider the situation of staying in the emergency survival cabin for a long time after using the emergency survival cabin in case someone was trapped.

Now that he has a clear use case, he certainly wants to understand the situation as much as possible so that he can make improvements later.
