[0024] The present invention will now be discussed with reference to several embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are discussed only to enable those skilled in the art to better understand and thus implement the present invention, and are not intended to imply any limitation on the scope of the present invention.
[0025] As used herein, the term "comprising" and its variations are to be interpreted as open-ended terms meaning "including but not limited to"; the terms "embodiment" and "one embodiment" are to be interpreted as "at least one embodiment"; the term "another embodiment" is to be interpreted as "at least one other embodiment"; the terms "first," "second," etc., may refer to different or the same objects; the term "setup" is not limited to direct or indirect connections, nor to specific connection methods. Other explicit and implicit definitions may also be included below.
[0026] Specific numerical values or ranges may be mentioned in the following description. It should be understood that these values and ranges are merely exemplary and may be helpful in putting the ideas of this invention into practice. However, the description of these examples is not intended to limit the scope of this invention in any way. These values or ranges may be set differently depending on the specific application scenario and requirements.
[0027] As mentioned above, there is currently no accurate and convenient testing device in the prior art for testing the fire resistance of steel-clad insulation systems. The testing device for the fire resistance of insulation systems proposed in the embodiments of this utility model at least partially solves the above-mentioned problem. The following will refer to... Figures 1-4 This invention describes the structure and working principle of a test apparatus for the fire resistance performance of an insulation system structure according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. The test apparatus for the fire resistance performance of an insulation system structure according to this invention mainly includes a furnace body 1, a furnace cover 2, an exhaust vent 3, a probe 4, and a heater 6. The furnace body 1 forms a furnace cavity for placing a profile 01. The furnace opening at the top of the furnace cavity is covered by the furnace cover 2, facilitating the hoisting of the profile 01 through the furnace opening and sealing the furnace cavity during the test. The furnace bottom at the bottom of the furnace cavity is used to place the profile 01 during the test. The heater 6 provides heat to the furnace cavity during the test, thereby simulating the temperature of the furnace cavity in a fire environment. The exhaust vent 3 discharges the exhaust gas generated by combustion in the furnace cavity during the test. The probe 4 collects the real-time temperature of the surface of the profile 01 during the test.
[0028] The exhaust vent 3 can be located on the side wall of the furnace body 1, the furnace bottom, or the furnace cover 2. In one embodiment, such as... Figure 1 As shown, an exhaust vent 3 is provided at the bottom of the furnace to discharge combustion exhaust gases from the furnace chamber. In another embodiment, as... Figure 2As shown, an exhaust vent 3 can be provided on the furnace cover 2. This arrangement allows for a larger area at the furnace bottom for placing the profile 01, ensuring greater stability of the profile 01 during testing. For example, the furnace cover 2 can be configured as a split structure, with each split section forming a partial exhaust vent 3. When the split sections are joined together to form a complete furnace cover 2, the exhaust vent 3 is formed. The split design also makes opening and closing the furnace cover more convenient. In another example, the complete exhaust vent 3 can be formed only on one of the split cover sections.
[0029] In one embodiment, the heater 6 can be directly installed inside the furnace cavity, and connected to an external controller via a wire penetrating the wall of the furnace body 1. For example, a resistance heater can be selected as the heater. In another embodiment, to prevent the heater from being damaged by the high temperature inside the furnace cavity, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the heating element is placed outside the furnace cavity, and an opening 5 is formed on the furnace body 1 to connect the inside and outside of the furnace cavity. The nozzle of the heating element supplies hot air into the furnace cavity through the opening 5. For example, there are multiple heating elements, which can be evenly arranged in a ring around the outer perimeter of the furnace cavity, or further arranged in two or three rings along the vertical direction.
[0030] In one embodiment, the furnace body 1 can be cylindrical or quadrilateral, and the sidewalls and bottom wall of the furnace body 1 are formed by stone masonry, so that the furnace cavity temperature will not dissipate through the sidewalls of the furnace body 1. For example, fireproof bricks can be selected as the masonry material.
[0031] In one embodiment, the probe 4 is mounted on the side wall of the furnace body 1. The probe 4 may include a support 41, a conductive part 42, and a detection part 43. The support 41 is used to fix the probe 43 to the side wall of the furnace body 1 and to support the detection part 43. The detection part 43 is located at the foremost end of the probe 4. The detection part 43 penetrates the insulation system structure 02 and contacts the surface of the profile 01, thereby accurately collecting the surface temperature of the profile 01. The conductive part 42 is used to electrically connect the detection part 43 to a controller outside the furnace cavity. For example, the probe 4 is a thermocouple. In another embodiment, the conductive part 42 may be a cable. To avoid the cable being affected by the high temperature environment inside the furnace cavity, thereby reducing the detection accuracy of the probe 4, a flame-retardant material is wrapped around the cable. For example, the flame-retardant material may be ceramic fiber felt.
[0032] The test device of this utility model embodiment can conveniently hoist the profile 01 covering the heat insulation system structure 02 through the furnace opening and place it vertically at the bottom of the furnace. For example, the profile 01 can be placed directly in the furnace bottom area, or the profile 01 can be stably fixed at the furnace bottom by additional tooling.
[0033] To ensure comprehensive data collection on the surface temperature changes of profile 01, multiple probes 4 are evenly distributed across the cross-sectional shape of profile 01. In one embodiment, such as... Figure 3As shown, when testing the I-beam, the insulation system structure 02 tightly covers the surface of the I-beam. The detection part 43 of the probe 4 contacts the I-beam at three detection points a, b, and c. The heat transfer paths of the I-beam cross-sectional shape are equal between the three detection points a, b, and c, therefore it can be considered that the surface temperature of the I-beam is fully collected. In another embodiment, as... Figure 4 As shown, when testing the square steel, the insulation system structure 02 covers the outer and inner surfaces of the square steel. The detection part 43 of the probe 4 contacts the square steel at three detection points a, b, and c. The heat transfer paths of the square steel cross-sections between the three detection points a, b, and c are equal, therefore it can be considered that the surface temperature of the square steel is fully collected. In other embodiments, the cross-section of the profile 01 can also be a commonly used profile such as a circle, a "C" shape, or a "T" shape.
[0034] The test apparatus of this utility model simulates a fire environment by creating a high-temperature environment in the furnace cavity. By collecting temperature changes on the surface of the profile, the fire resistance performance of the insulation system structure covering the profile surface can be evaluated.
