Is provided along the upper surface of the roof, and a lock pin 8 is provided at the base end of the pulling bar 7.
A release lever 9 for releasing the lock is provided.

Therefore, when the warning light 4 is not turned on,
The mounting portion 3 is laid down and placed along the upper surface of the roof portion.

At this time, although the warning lamp 4 is in the lowered position, even in this state, the warning lamp 4 is slightly projected to the front of the vehicle 1 through the mounting portion 3, so that it is more noticeable than the conventional example.

Further, at this time, the mounting portion 3 is biased by the elastic shaft 11 in the down state, and the lock pin 8 is engaged with the engaging portion.
It is fixedly locked because it is locked at 10.

In this state, the release lever 9 on the rear side of the vehicle 1, which is the base end side of the mounting portion 3, is gripped and operated to disengage the lock pin 8 from the engaging portion 10 and to apply the urging force of the elastic shaft 11. By pulling the pulling rod 7 backward while holding the release lever 9 against it, the standing rod 6 rises. Therefore, the mounting portion 3 is inclined rearward at a predetermined angle, and the warning lamp 4 at the tip of the mounting portion 3 is fixed at a position above the roof top surface. It should be noted that the lifting and lowering operation of the mounting portion 3 may be performed by such a manual method or may be performed by an automatic method so that it can be operated in the vehicle.

Therefore, even in a fire truck of a small deck van type, the warning light 4 is very conspicuous and well recognized by other drivers.

Further, in this embodiment, the mounting portion 3 is formed as a ladder receiver, and the ladder 5 is supported and fixed to the mounting portion 3.

Therefore, if this fixing is released, the ladder 5 can be slid and projected backward and taken out by pulling the ladder 5 rearward with the mounting portion 3 inclined.

With this construction, the troublesome ladder 5 can be easily stored, and the ladder 5 placed on the roof can be taken out very smoothly and speedily.

In this embodiment, a storage / mounting portion 12 is provided at the rear of the vehicle 1, and the storage / mounting portion 12 is connected to the pump unit 2, the water suction pipe 14 connecting the pump unit 2 and the fire hydrant, and the water supply hose.

From the vehicle 1 to the rear of the vehicle 1 is configured to be able to be pulled out and projected by a drawer slide mechanism 15, and the pumping machine 2 pulled out by the drawer slide mechanism 15 is a rotating mechanism
It is configured to be rotatable by 16.

Further, the pump unit 2 is installed in the storage / placing section 12.
When the water is stored, the water suction pipe 14 can be arranged integrally with the pump machine 2 on the vehicle front side, which is the inner side of the storage mounting portion 12.

Therefore, in this embodiment, when the pump unit 2 is pulled rearward from the rear portion of the vehicle 1, the pump unit 2 is pulled out from the storage / placing unit 12 to the rear side of the vehicle 1 by the pull-out slide mechanism 15 to rotate the pump unit 2. For example, the pump machine 2 has a rotating mechanism 16
Therefore, even when the pump machine 2 is regularly inspected, or when the pump machine 2 is urgently inspected or repaired, it can be easily taken out without rotating the heavy pump machine 2 and can be rotated in a desired direction. It is an excellent fire engine that can be inspected and the pump machine 2 can be operated without removing it from the vehicle 1.

Further, for example, if the water suction pipe 14 is housed and arranged on the back side of the pump machine 2 (the front side of the vehicle which is the inner side of the housing section 12), the pump machine 2 can be more compactly housed and the pump machine 2 can be housed. If it is pulled out and rotated, the water suction pipe 14 and the water supply hose 13
Etc. will be pulled out together with the pump machine 2, will rotate, and can be easily taken out even if it is stored and arranged on the rear side,
It is an excellent fire engine that makes it easy to take out the water suction pipe 14 and the pump machine 2 without losing compactness.
