When asked how and when to compensate the accident victims, Yang Ling, a spokesperson for Jinggang Metro Company, said that as the operating company of the subway, we are responsible for all passengers entering the subway. After the accident, we rescued the injured passengers at the first time, and at the same time, based on humanitarian principles, we have been consulting with the families of the victims.
But the accident happened because the elevator suddenly broke down. Li Xiaosong said that the elevator just underwent safety maintenance on June 22nd, and we can also see that both the operator and the government have done it dutifully.
What specific measures will Beijing take next?
Yang Ling said that the accident was caused by the sudden failure of the elevator. Otis, as the producer, manufacturer and current maintainer of this elevator, has an unshirkable responsibility.
Otis should be responsible for the lack of maintenance.
Regarding whether accidents can be avoided, Li Xiaosong said that living on the earth, emergencies will happen at any time, and health management, but the most important thing is to have a sense of prevention, and once emergencies happen, there should be emergency measures.
Our operating company is also a victim of this accident. Yang Ling said that after the responsibility is confirmed, the company will recover the relevant responsibilities from Otis.
We are also victims.
Zhang Juming, deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Quality Supervision, said that in order to ensure the safe operation of the Beijing subway, on the one hand, administrative licensing should be further tightened according to national laws and regulations; On the other hand, it is necessary to strengthen management so that elevator users can strictly implement the main responsibility of safety production; Third, we should strengthen the management of elevator maintenance enterprises and improve the quality and level of elevator maintenance.
Han Zhiwei, assistant to the general manager of Beijing Rail Transit Construction Management Company and director of the equipment headquarters, said that the elevators of Line 4 are subject to public bidding according to the national bidding law, and all bidding processes are supervised by government departments, and their contracts are also filed in government departments.
Twenty-five passengers with minor injuries have been discharged.
The escalator in Shenzhen is the same model.
■ Follow-up
Han Zhiwei said that from the design specification, the choice of elevator is in line with the subway design specification and the national standard of heavy elevator for public transportation, so from this aspect, the choice is no problem.
Li Xiaosong, deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Transportation Commission, said that after the escalator accident in Shenzhen last year, all escalators in the Beijing subway immediately carried out a comprehensive safety inspection. On June 22nd, Otis just conducted a safety inspection on this elevator.
Not picking brands, only safety has a threshold.
Zhang Juming introduced that the brand and model of the faulty escalator are exactly the same as those of the escalator that had an accident in Shenzhen in June 65438+February 65438+April last year. The General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine (AQSIQ) specially issued an urgent notice, requiring escalator users all over the country to stop using Otis 5 13MPE escalator immediately, and contact elevator manufacturers and maintenance units to conduct a comprehensive safety inspection of this type of escalator to eliminate potential safety hazards.
Asked about the similar accident in Shenzhen last year, did Beijing take corresponding measures? Zhang Juming said that after the Shenzhen subway accident last year, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, including the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Quality Supervision, issued a special document, requiring all users and maintenance units of Otis and Beijing10.4 million escalators to learn lessons, carefully investigate and eliminate hidden dangers. But unfortunately, some maintenance units failed to seriously investigate, and there are still hidden dangers of accidents, so such an accident occurred on July 5.
Han Zhiwei said that the elevators on Metro Line 4 are not only a brand of Otis, but also several other brands, all of which are products of some internationally renowned big companies.
Li Xiaosong finally said, first of all, we don't want this to happen. The daily passenger traffic of Beijing Metro 14 line exceeds 7 million passengers. In such a large traffic operation state, we are very worried if the supplier cannot guarantee the overall quality of facilities and equipment.
There should be emergency treatment for emergencies.
Is there any corresponding measure in Beijing after the elevator accident in Shenzhen?
Li Xiaosong, deputy director of Beijing Municipal Transportation Commission, said that Gou, deputy mayor in charge of Beijing, deputy secretary-general and traffic, health and public security departments rushed to the scene at the first time. At that time, the station staff and the police stationed in Beijing-Hong Kong Metro Company disposed of it at the first time.
Last night, the Beijing Municipal Government held a briefing on the escalator accident on Line 4. Zhang Juming, deputy director of the Municipal Bureau of Quality Supervision, said that the Otis 5 13MPE escalator that failed had design and manufacturing defects. At present, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine (AQSIQ) has issued an urgent notice, demanding that the Otis 5 13MPE escalator be stopped immediately throughout the country.
Zhang Juming said that according to the preliminary investigation, the direct cause of the accident was the damage of the fixed parts, the deviation of the main drive machine, the falling of the drive chain and the failure of the additional brake, which led to the escalator sliding down. The specific reasons are being entrusted to the National Elevator Quality Supervision and Inspection Center for technical appraisal. At present, it can be preliminarily judged that the failed Otis 5 13MPE elevator has design and manufacturing defects. At the same time, Otis company is not in place for maintenance and bears unshirkable responsibility for this accident.
Zhang Juming said that Otis 5 13MPE elevators operated by Health Network and Metro Line 4 * * have a total of 14 elevators, including 6 at Xizhimen Station, 2 at Zoo Station, 2 at Xuanwumen Station, 2 at caishikou station Station and 2 at Haidian Huang Zhuang Station. At present, according to the requirements of AQSIQ, accident investigation and elevator safety hidden danger investigation are being carried out.
Elevator maintenance enterprise management will be strengthened.
At the same time, the circular requires quality supervision departments all over the country to urge users of escalators in public places such as subways, airports, shopping malls and stations to immediately conduct a comprehensive investigation of the escalators used.
It has been investigated, but some units are not careful enough.
Zhang Juming said that regarding the punishment of the party responsible for the accident, the party responsible for the accident will be punished according to the hazards and investigation results of the accident and the relevant national laws and regulations.
Beijing-Hong Kong Metro intends to claim compensation from Otis.
According to the report at the meeting, 25 slightly injured passengers have been discharged from the hospital, and the remaining 5 injured people are not life-threatening and are recovering.
Why did you choose Otis elevator when something happened?
■ focus
Zhang Juming said that at the same time, relevant policies should be used to promote the maintenance and renovation of old elevators. In addition, through extensive social publicity, we will improve the knowledge, health assessment and safety awareness of all sectors of society about the safe use of elevators, so as to ensure the safe operation and symptom inquiry of elevators.
What are the design and manufacturing defects of Otis 5 13MPE elevator? In this regard, Zhao Borui, chief engineer of Beijing Special Equipment Testing Center, said that from the current point of view, the base fixing bolt of the escalator itself has been broken. In fact, it should not be broken, and the manufacturing process is also flawed. The final conclusion will also be made by the National Elevator Quality Supervision and Inspection Center.
