METHOD OF FIGHTING FIRES AND DEVICE FOR ITS IMPLEMENTATION Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC A62C37/00 

FIELD: fire safety.

SUBSTANCE: method of fighting fires consists in creation on the fire source of several spots of irrigation of the source with the fire extinguishing liquid, which are formed by its supply to the fire source by fire monitors, and to increase the removal of fire monitors from the fire source the surfactants-inhibitors are added to the fire extinguishing mixture, which increase the surface tension of the liquid and increase the length of the compact part of the jet. At that the positioning of each individual spot of irrigation on the fire source is carried out with the condition of absence of interaction of individual monitor jets with each other and the maximum effectiveness of movement of spots of irrigation in the process of fire extinguishing. The method is implemented with use of a robotic mobile fire-extinguishing unit having the chassis with a power drive, along the sides of which the fire monitors with power drives of positioning their longitudinal axes on elevation angle above the horizon line and the azimuthal angle are mounted, and the supply of extinguishing liquid to the fire monitors is carried out using a turbo-pump unit, which enables to supply the extinguishing liquid by one pump station to two fire monitors, and before supplying the extinguishing liquid to the fire monitors the inhibitors are added to it, which increase the surface tension of the liquid. The operation of the systems of mobile robotic fire-fighting unit is carried out either by on-board processor, or remotely by the operator, for which the unit is equipped with the corresponding TV and radio equipment.

EFFECT: improvement of method of fire extinguishing.
