Here is a short video on how the jaws of life work

Impacts On Society

Impacts on the environment

What are the Jaws Of Life?

This tool does not effect the environment because it doesn't contain any harmful chemicals that would interfere with the environment's well being.

The Jaws of life impact society in a great way because of it's ability to help people escape from a car that had been hit or escape from beneath the ruble of a steel or concrete building that had collapsed. This tool is overall used to help free people from dangerous situations. With this hydraulic powered machine more people who have encountered such accidents have a much greater chance of escaping the fallen building or the hit car.

The Jaws of Life is a tool that helps cut through heavy materials. In this case it would include car doors, buses etc. The jaws Of Life are used to help pry and/or rip car doors apart so that firefighters can have the access to the passenger(s) so that they can get them out safely.They are not only used to open car doors, but you can also use the tool to removed victims from collapsed concrete and steel structures.

Impacts on the Economy (money)

BREAKING NEWS!!!

There has been a car crash located in West Africa! They crashed because the driver was coughing because he had EBOLA!!!! So this is their story on how the JAWS OF LIFE saved them.

How it Works

The HURST company is only company that we know of that produces and manufactures the Jaws Of Life. The economy is not deeply affected by the purchasing of the jaws since fire departments are mostly the only ones who buy this tool. Due to the fact that our parents tax dollars go into paying the government, the government must then give the money to various public services including the fire departments. This brings us back to what i said earlier, the economic government is slightly affected but is not deeply affected since they are only giving a portion of the tax dollars to the fire departments across the nation.

The Jaws use a tremendous amount of force to cut through the frame of the car. To do this job a hydraulic system is used. The hydraulics operate by using a transmission of forces, this moves from one point to another through a fluid, such as oil. In this case a piston is used to push down on a fluid. The fluid then transmits the force to another piston, this causes the jaws to open and close.When the force is transmitted it only uses a quarter of the hydraulics fluid(oil).
