Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of urban fire fighting, and specifically to a comprehensive method for quickly extinguishing building fires. Background Art
[0002] After a building fire gets out of control and when the fire fighting and rescue arrives, it is already in the period of fierce combustion. The traditional fire extinguishing method is to spray water for fire extinguishing with a direct injection pipe nozzle; with this fire extinguishing method, it can often only extinguish the rooms that the direct water spray can reach, while the rooms that the water spray cannot reach can only continue to burn. And the direct water spray can only make the combustibles stop burning when it is sprayed onto the combustibles. There are often a lot of combustibles in a room, and the fire in this room can only be extinguished after all of them are sprayed one by one; this is why it takes a long time to extinguish a building fire with the traditional fire extinguishing method; or rather, the traditional fire extinguishing method has a serious problem of low efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides a comprehensive method for quickly extinguishing building fires, which solves the problems raised in the above background art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is realized through the following technical solutions: A comprehensive method for quickly extinguishing building fires includes the following specific steps:
[0005] Step 1: Establish a fire command center, select a corresponding fire fighting plan according to the fire situation and on-site conditions, and implement it;
[0006] Step 2: For the fire scene on the lower floors, use a new type of fire fighting and rescue vehicle and firefighters to cooperate, and implement a large water volume spray full coverage of the fire source type fire extinguishing operation. The specific process is as follows:
[0007] (1) Dispatch a new type of fire fighting and rescue vehicle to the fire scene, use the spray device set at the end of the robotic arm to approach or extend into the window of the burning room, and spray a large amount of water mist into the burning room, which can instantly cover the burning room and the connected burning rooms, thereby enabling rapid heat exchange and controlling and extinguishing the fire;
[0008] (2) Firefighters enter the corridor in a timely manner, reach the floor below the burning floor to lay out the main and shunt pipelines. One end of the main pipeline is connected to the nearest fire hydrant, and the other end is connected to a water distributor. Two branch pipes are extended through the water distributor, and a large water volume hand-held spray device is connected to the end of the branch pipe. Firefighters carry the hand-held large water volume spray device along a safe path to the outside of the burning room and spray a large amount of water mist into the burning room to quickly extinguish the fire;
[0009] Step 3: For the fire scene on the high floors, use drones and firefighters to cooperate, and also use the large water volume spray full coverage of the fire source type for fire extinguishing operation. The drone used is a drone with a load capacity of 300 kg. The specific process is as follows:
[0010] (1) The first operating unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is responsible for the large - volume spray fire - fighting task; a large - volume spray device and a booster pump are installed inside this UAV, and a telescopic spray pipe is connected; the telescopic length of the telescopic spray pipe is set to about 5 m. At the same time, to ensure the balance of the UAV during operation, a balance - gravity rotor needs to be set on this telescopic spray pipe;
[0011] (2) A spray balance rotor is set in the opposite direction of the telescopic pipe to offset the reaction force generated during large - volume spraying. The length of the water delivery pipe carried under the first operating UAV is set to 10 ± 1 m. The water delivery pipe can be an ordinary fire hose or an elastic hard pipe with the same pipe diameter;
[0012] (3) According to the height of the fire - affected floor, the second, third, fourth... Nth operating UAVs need to be adapted to be responsible for the intermediate - load water delivery pipe operation. The length of the water pipe carried by each UAV is set to 30 ± 2 m. The UAVs only need to connect the water delivery pipes and then can immediately be put into the fire - fighting operation;
[0013] Step Four: The stage of clearing residual fires; after the fire is extinguished, it is necessary to patrol the fire scene to thoroughly clear the residual fires to prevent re - ignition; and arrange personnel to stay at the fire scene for continuous monitoring to ensure complete extinguishment;
[0014] Step Five: After confirming that the fire scene is completely safe, evacuate personnel and equipment in an orderly manner, and at the same time summarize the fire - fighting operation.
[0015] Optionally, the on - site situation includes weather conditions, personnel evacuation situation, storage status of inflammable and explosive substances, real - time wind direction, structure of the fire - affected building, and height of the fire - affected floor.
[0016] Optionally, the main pipeline and the water distributor are arranged by one or more of the following methods: carried on the back of a firefighter or carried on the back of a robotic dog.
[0017] Optionally, the large - volume spray device is composed of three parts. The rear end of the spray device is composed of a fan driven by a high - efficiency DC motor. The inner wall of the front - end fan cylinder of the spray device is provided with a plurality of small sprayers. That is, the water is first atomized and then blown out by a high - power fan. A guiding nozzle is provided at the port of the small sprayer.
[0018] Optionally, in step three, if the fire point is on a high - rise floor above 100 m, among the UAVs responsible for water delivery, one or more UAVs carrying booster pumps need to be set to ensure smooth water supply and stable water pressure for high - rise building fire - fighting.
[0019] The present invention provides a comprehensive method for quickly extinguishing building fires, having the following beneficial effects:
[0020] This comprehensive method for quickly extinguishing building fires involves a new type of fire-fighting and rescue vehicle. When it arrives at the fire scene, it extends its robotic arm at the fastest speed. At the end of the robotic arm, there is a high-volume and efficient spray device that approaches or extends into the burning window, and immediately starts spraying a large volume of water mist into the burning room. In an instant, the entire burning room can be covered, and it can also reach other interconnected rooms where direct water spraying cannot reach. Under the action of the large volume of water mist that almost completely covers all burning rooms in an instant, the heat exchange in the burning room can be quickly completed without any dead corners, thus achieving the goal of quickly extinguishing the fire;
[0021] Firefighters also timely carry a new type of portable large-volume spray device to the outside of the burning room and promptly spray a large volume of water mist into the burning room. Similarly, it can also instantly cover almost all burning rooms with a large volume of water mist and quickly complete heat exchange without any dead corners, that is, achieve the goal of quickly extinguishing the fire. This technical solution replicates the scene of nature quickly extinguishing forest fires by raining for hundreds of millions of years. Its core inspiration is that continuous and dense water droplets completely covering the fire source can quickly achieve heat exchange and extinguish the fire;
[0022] This technical solution has completely changed the traditional inefficient fire extinguishing method of direct spray pipes, especially manual firefighting by firefighters. From several people carrying a water pipe to cooperate in extinguishing the fire in the past, it has become a single-person operation, greatly improving the freedom and safety of firefighters' fire extinguishing operations. In case of a high-risk fire scene, the robotic dog can also play an important role in replacing firefighters to carry out fire extinguishing operations;
[0023] The fire extinguishing operation drones of this scheme can fly directly from the fire station to the fire scene or be carried into the scene by a special fire truck. This unmanned aerial vehicle group operation fire extinguishing scheme, because each drone only needs to be connected by a water pipe plug or snap connection, has a relatively fast preparation speed. Since the unmanned aerial vehicle group starts the fire extinguishing operation, spraying a large volume of water mist towards the burning rooms on the burning floor to completely cover the fire source in the burning rooms, the efficiency of achieving the goal of quickly extinguishing the fire will be more than ten times that of the existing fire extinguishing schemes;
[0024] At the same time, firefighters can also reach the burning floor as soon as possible; use a portable large-volume spray device to participate in fire extinguishing and clean up the fire scene;
[0025] And during the process of extinguishing high-rise building fires, the freight robotic dog will play an extremely important role; it can greatly reduce the burden on firefighters of carrying fire-fighting equipment and can also replace firefighters to perform high-risk fire extinguishing tasks.
