Problems solved by technology

[0010] However, as long as there is no fire in the building, the sprinkler heads will remain installed there, so sprinkler heads that have deteriorated in appearance or design have become unreasonable need to be replaced with new sprinkler heads
The old sprinkler heads are disposed of, but since Pb or Cd is used as a heat-sensitive material in the thermally decomposed part of the sprinkler head, Pb or Cd contaminates groundwater

Abstract

As the test temperature of a strength test for a sprinkler head is close to the melting temperature of a solder alloy of a thermal-induction decomposition part for the sprinkler head, thus a high-temperature area working on an automatic sprinkler is required to have creeping properties. However, compared with the past Pb or Cd sprinkler head, the sprinkler head not made of a Pb or Cd In-base alloy can not reach the creeping properties of the high-temperature area working on the automatic sprinkler, and sometimes the endurance test is unqualified. In the invention, alloy for a thermo-sensitive material fused at the temperature of 70-75 DEG C of the thermal-induction decomposition part for the sprinkler head comprises the following components by mass percent: 0.1-2.0% of Sn, 31-37% of Bi, the balance of In-base alloy; and alloy for a thermo-sensitive material fused at the temperature of 90-95 DEG C comprises the following components by mass percent: 0.05-0.4% of Zn, 43-55% of Bi and the balance of In-base alloy.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of the application dated August 2, 2005, the application number 200580048820.7, and the title of the invention is "thermosensitive material and sprinkler head using the same". technical field [0002] The present invention relates to a sprinkler head for extinguishing fire by sprinkling water when a fire breaks out. Background technique [0003] In the sprinkler head, the thermally decomposed part decomposes under the abnormally high temperature of the fire, and the valve body held in the thermally decomposed part is opened to sprinkle water to extinguish the fire. There are liquid and low-melting-point alloys as heat-sensitive materials used in the heat-sensitive decomposition part of the sprinkler head. [0004] Ethanol is used as the heat-sensitive material when the liquid is used in the heat-sensitive decomposition part of the sprinkler head. The thermosensitive decomposition part using ethanol is called a glass valve ...
