JUMP SUICIDE PREVENTION DEVICE FOR BRIDGE RAILINGS
A jump suicide prevention device includes a pair of link parts disposed to face each other in a longitudinal direction of the bridge railing, a roller part including rotation parts on opposite sides thereof in the longitudinal direction to be rotatably coupled between the link parts, leg parts respectively coupled to lower ends of the link parts by fastening members, and resilient members installed between end portions of the link part and the leg part with being interposed therebetween to control vertical movements of the link part. As a jump suicide prevention device capable of preventing a suicide jumper from jumping over the upper portion of the bridge railing, the device may prevent incidents of jump suicide from bridge railings due to the configuration of the roller part which rotates while vertically pivoting according to the weight of the suicide jumper.
