Foot injury factors during production

 

1. Object injury or puncture injury factor

This is the most common injury factor. In the production or construction process of machinery industry, metallurgical industry, construction industry, etc., objects often fall or nails and sharp objects are scattered on the ground, which will hurt the toes or stab the soles.

 

2. High and low temperature damage

In smelting, casting, metal processing, coking, chemical furnaces and other workplaces, not only the ambient temperature is high, but also radiant heat, roasting the feet, hot materials splashing on the foot or falling into the shoes causing burns. In cold regions, especially in winter outdoor construction, the climate temperature is below zero, even reaching minus 20 to 30 degrees. The foot is affected by low temperature and frostbite will occur, reducing work efficiency.

 

3. Chemical (acid-base) damage

In chemical plants, paper mills, non-ferrous smelting, battery production and other places, operators often come into contact with acid-base solutions, which may cause accidents in which the feet are burned by acid and alkali.

 

4. Electric shock injury

This is a common injury factor in industrial accidents and can be divided into electric shock and non-contact electric injury. The former is mainly current injury, which can damage the internal tissues of the human body, such as the heart, respiratory system, and nervous system. Lighter people have a sense of acupuncture and percussion, and there are tremors, convulsions, high blood pressure, and arrhythmia until coma; in severe cases, ventricular fibrillation, cardiac arrest, respiratory stagnation, and even death may occur. The latter is mainly arc injury, which is characterized by dot imprinting and carbonization of the skin. In severe cases, it can be deep in muscles, bones and internal organs. The electrophysiological physiology of the researchers showed that the human perceptual current was 1.1 mA for adult males and 0.71.1 mA for adult females. Out of current, the average male adult is 16 mA, and the average adult female is 10.5 mA. When the electric shock current is greater than the current, the electric shock can not get rid of the power supply by itself. If there is no external force, the electric shock time will be prolonged and the danger of death will occur.

 

5. Static damage

The harm of static electricity to the human body is mainly caused by psychological obstacles, fears, and can cause secondary accidents such as rolling hands in the machine or falling from a height. In addition, skin burns and dermatitis can also be caused by static clicks. The main hazard of static electricity is the occurrence of flammable and explosive accidents in the industry.

 

6. Forced position

This mainly occurs in the low-level underground roadway operation, where the knees often bend or crawl on the knees, causing bursitis of the knee joint.
