A FIRE-EXTINGUISHING SYSTEM FOR A MULTISTOREY STOREHOUSE OF AUTOMOBILES Russian patent published in 2004 - IPC

FIELD: fire prevention; the stationary automatic systems of detection and suppression of fires. SUBSTANCE: the invention is dealt with the stationary automatic systems of detection and suppression of fires with the help of means generating aerosols. The systems are installed in the multistory storehouses keeping big quantities of automobiles. The fire-extinguishing system of a multistory storehouse of automobiles contains an elevator well, equipped with a service platform with a mechanism of reciprocating horizontal conveyance of the cars storage pans. The platform is placed between the vertically mounted sections, where supports of the cars storage pans and generators of the fire-extinguishing aerosols are fixed, actuated by the control unit by a fire alarm signals received from the fire alarms announcers. At that the supporting skeleton of the sections includes the forming quartering, longitudinal and cross-cut hardening beams, as well as the auxiliary ladders and sites of the maintenance. The new thing is that generators of the fire-extinguishing aerosol are fixed under the sites of maintenance service of each section in staggered rows in the vertical direction and along a diagonal are directed to the well of the elevator. At that in the corners of the sections of the ground floor the generators are installed in twos and in the corners of two lower sections of the automobiles storage the generators of the fire-extinguishing aerosol are distributed in fours. Two generators of each four are synchronized with generators of other sections, and the rest two of each four generators are connected in series through the devices of the optimized time delay to the control unit. The invention is characterized by expansion of functionalities that allow the systems of fire-extinguishing to be used in high-altitude storehouse of automobiles(cars) due to improved capacity of equipment of the offered safe fire-extinguishing system. EFFECT: the invention allows the above indicated systems of fire-extinguishing to be used in the multistory storehouses of automobiles. 12 dwg
