It's just "salvavidas", I believe. Like can opener is "abrelatas". There are a whole bunch of nouns that have these functional names.

Wiktionary says "salvavidas" is one of these 🛟. I think the other person may be correct with "chaleco salvavidas". (I only see the word when I read the airline safety card out of boredom. Assumed it was lifejacket.)
