System for extinguishing fire of train

Abstract

A disclosed system for automatically extinguishing a train fire in accordance with the present invention includes fire detection units provided in train cars of a train and configured to detect the occurrence of a fire; a control unit for receiving a signal from the fire detection unit and determining whether a fire is occurring; nozzle units provided in the train cars and configured to spray a fire extinguishing agent when the control unit determines that a fire is occurring; and fire extinguishing agent discharging units comprising housings that communicate with the nozzle units and are filled with the fire extinguishing agent at a predetermined pressure, valves for selectively opening and closing the housings and the nozzle units, and actuators for operating the valves under the control of the control unit. With the above-described system, a fire can be automatically and rapidly extinguished in the case where the fire is occurring in a train car, and which train car is on fire is immediately determined, so that countermeasures can be rapidly taken. Furthermore, fire extinguishing work can be performed only in a corresponding train car in which a fire is occurring, so that a fire can be effectively dealt with.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a system for automatically extinguishing a train fire, more precisely, to a system for automatically extinguishing a train fire, which is capable of automatically and rapidly extinguishing a train fire when a train car is on fire, so as to manage fire extinguisher history easily, And monitor the state of the train fire. Background technique [0002] In the past, when a fire broke out in a train car, passengers either passively sensed the fire and evacuated, or the fire was detected automatically and the passengers were evacuated using an alarm broadcast to prevent fatalities from flames, heat, smoke or toxic gases. [0003] However, there has been a problem in the past that in the event of a fire, the train driver was unaware of the fire and continued to drive the train, which resulted in fatalities even though the train driver should have stopped the train and evacuated the passengers to a safe location. [0004] In a...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, there has been a problem in the past that when a fire breaks out, the train driver is unaware of the fire and continues to drive the train, which can result in fatalities, although the train driver should stop the train and evacuate the passengers to a safe place

[0004] In addition, it was difficult to quickly evacuate passengers to other safe cars because it was impossible to determine which train car was on fire

Also, there is another problem, during the evacuation, the chaos can cause passengers to mistakenly enter the burning train car, which will increase the number of fatalities

[0005] In addition, in the event of a fire, the successful operation of the fire extinguisher is manually checked, so there is an inconvenience

Moreover, there is a problem that in the event of a fire, the failure of the fire extinguisher will not be detected in advance and will not function properly

[0006] In addition, when a fire extinguisher is in operation, it is difficult to know which fire extinguisher is in operation, so the history of fire extinguishers cannot be efficiently managed

Moreover, there is a problem that the station where the train on fire is about to arrive does not know that the train has a fire, so it is impossible to take measures against the fire
