LINN COUNTY, Iowa (KCRG) On Thursday, Cedar Rapids firefighters were called to perform a corn silo rescue of a trapped adult male at a farm on the 600 block of Tharp Road Southwest. The auger stands out when on duty in rescue red. Made of lightweight aluminum, rescuers can easily lift a panel up and join with another. Anodized ball-and-socket joints ensure smooth panel connection, and the joint was specially designed to have some range of movement, adding to the variability in shape. The lightweight wall sections are easily maneuvered and can be aligned to form a wall, a tube, or other irregular shapes depending on the rescue situation and the number of panels available. Once the tube is secure around the victim, the Rescue Auger can be placed in the tube and quickly expel the unwanted grain. This patented grain rescue tube device was designed, developed, tested, and built by farmers and reghters, working together to better save lives.
