The invention discloses a cotton picker fire
monitoring system. The
system comprises a cotton picker main body, a cab, a cotton box, an air duct, a fire extinguishing device (containing a filter, an
air pump, a one-way valve, an air vessel, an overflow valve, a pressure gauge, a fire extinguishing agent vessel and electromagnetic valves), a
smoke sensor, temperature sensors and a near
infrared sensor, wherein the fire extinguishing device is fixedly mounted between the cab and the cotton box on the cotton picker main body and positioned under the air duct; the
smoke sensor and the temperaturesensors are mounted in the cotton box, and the near
infrared sensor is mounted in the air duct. The fire extinguishing device is connected with the air duct through a pipeline; only certain treatmentneeds to be carried out on the air duct of the cotton picker, and then the preset function is easily realized. When a fire occurs, the sensors transmit signals to the corresponding
electromagnetic valve, then the
electromagnetic valve is started, and the fire extinguishing agent is pressed into the air duct by utilizing the
pressure difference formed between the air duct and the fire extinguishingdevice and then reaches the cotton box along with wind, so that the purpose of isolating ignited cotton from unignited cotton in the cotton box is achieved, a great deal of time is gained for the cotton picker to
shut down for unloading the cotton and extinguishing the fire, and the economic loss is reduced for farmers and
machine owners.
