Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of fire risk management system technology, specifically to a fire risk monitoring system for industrial production and its usage method. Background Technology

[0002] Fire safety is not only a key focus for residential areas, but also requires real-time monitoring and supervision of industrial production sites, especially chemical plants and hazardous materials factories. Once a fire occurs, the chemicals may cause incalculable serious consequences in the expanding fire scene. Therefore, fire risk monitoring in industrial production processes is an important task, which requires the use of an industrial fire risk monitoring system for scientific management and control.

[0003] With the development of technology, the informatization of the fire protection industry has made great strides, and fire communication and command systems have been newly built or upgraded in various regions. However, at present, the informatization of the fire protection industry, both domestically and internationally, can only assess data and fire safety conditions at specific time points. Due to the dynamic nature of fire hazards, the dynamic fire safety situation when a fire suddenly occurs or is still in a small-scale spread cannot be presented in a timely manner. This makes it difficult for command departments far from the scene to obtain accurate data and information in a timely manner, which ultimately affects the accurate delivery of fire resources and fire fighting forces, and ultimately leads to greater fire damage. In view of this, we propose a fire risk monitoring system for industrial production and its usage method. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a fire risk monitoring system for industrial production and its usage method, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a fire risk monitoring system for industrial production, comprising a central control system, a monitoring system, and a fire safety inspection system. The central control system includes a central processor and a communication base station. The communication base station includes a main communication station and several signal relay transceiver base stations, which are evenly distributed within the industrial production area, ensuring overlapping coverage areas among the signal relay transceiver base stations. Simultaneously, the signal relay transceiver base stations cover the entire industrial production area. The central control system also includes cameras, an inspection robot, and communication terminals. The cameras include those for monitoring factory roads, warehouses, and workshops. The communication terminals include employee handheld terminals, maintenance handheld terminals, and inspection handheld terminals. The patrol robot includes a walking module, a communication module, and a camera module.

[0006] Preferably, the monitoring system includes hazardous materials monitoring, material monitoring, and fire-fighting equipment monitoring. The hazardous materials monitoring specifically includes temperature monitoring, humidity monitoring, and fire spread prediction of hazardous materials. The material monitoring includes fire hazard level and fire information monitoring of materials. The fire-fighting equipment monitoring includes self-locking structure and sound, light, and electrical warning devices for fire-fighting equipment.

[0007] Preferably, the fire safety inspection system includes patrol robots and manual inspections. The patrol robot's functions include route planning, camera interaction, and stationary filming. The manual inspections include supplementary patrols, information exchange on the entry and exit of goods and equipment, and on-site emergency rescue.

[0008] Preferably, the communication terminal is an APP interaction platform, which can be installed on a mobile phone or a mobile watch. A central management platform is established within the central control system. The central management platform includes a cloud database, a map module, and a communication module. The cloud database stores employees' personal information. The APP interaction platform itself is forced to enable the location system, and the APP interaction platform uses employees' personal information for login access. At the same time, the login information of the APP interaction platform is bound to the employees' personal information. The employee's handheld terminal has basic access permissions to the cloud database and the map module. The maintenance handheld terminal has access to, maintenance, and modification permissions for relevant information in the cloud database and the map module. The inspection handheld terminal has partial access to and addition permissions for relevant information in the cloud database and the map module.

[0009] Preferably, the temperature monitoring in the hazardous materials monitoring uses a thermal imaging camera, and the temperature information is transmitted to the central processing unit via a communication base station. Management personnel pre-set temperature warning lines for the hazardous materials at that location based on the type of hazardous material, storage time, and storage environment. The thermal imaging camera issues an alarm when the target temperature reaches the aforementioned temperature warning line. Similarly, humidity monitoring uses a humidity monitor for real-time monitoring, and the humidity information collected by the humidity monitor is transmitted to the central processing unit via a communication base station. Management personnel pre-set humidity warning lines for the hazardous materials at that location based on the type of hazardous material, storage time, and storage environment. When the humidity information collected by the humidity monitor reaches or approaches the humidity warning line, it immediately transmits the information to the central processing unit via the communication base station and issues an alarm to remind staff and back-end monitoring personnel. This allows staff and back-end monitoring personnel to promptly understand the status of the hazardous materials stored in the warehouse, facilitating timely detection of hazards and appropriate handling.

[0010] Preferably, the fire spread prediction specifically includes the following steps:

[0011] S1. Establish a three-dimensional warehouse model;

[0012] S2. Update and maintain hazardous materials information within the corresponding warehouse model;

[0013] S3. Calculation of the specific location of the fire after it occurs and the burning rate in different directions after the fire occurs;

[0014] S4. Speculation on the possibility of fire spreading from adjacent warehouses;

[0015] Estimated timeframe for warehouses where fires may spread, as specified in S5 and S4.

[0016] Preferably, the materials need to be registered with relevant information when stored, retrieved, and used, specifically including the fire hazard level, which is divided into safe level, flammable level, and high-hazard level. The safe level includes materials that are not easily combustible, the flammable level includes materials that are not easily spontaneously combustible but are threatened by open flames and pose a risk of fire spread, and the high-hazard level includes materials that are prone to spontaneous combustion or combustion. The sound, light, and electrical reminder device is controlled by a central processing unit. When the central processing unit detects a fire at the current location, it controls the sound, light, and electrical reminder device to start alerting, thereby facilitating employees to promptly discover a fire and locate fire extinguishing equipment. When the central processing unit controls the sound, light, and electrical reminder device to start, it simultaneously unlocks the fire-fighting equipment at the current location, ensuring that rescue personnel can promptly use these devices for fire extinguishing.

[0017] Preferably, the route planning involves the patrol robot creating a 3D model of the factory area using information from a cloud database and map module. This 3D model is then corrected with the assistance of a monitoring system. Finally, the patrol robot patrols areas with increasing fire safety coefficients. Specifically, upon reaching the target patrol area, the patrol robot interacts with the corresponding surveillance cameras to collect on-site information, achieving more comprehensive information gathering. This allows back-end monitoring personnel to understand the specific situation and data of the target location more promptly and comprehensively. Furthermore, the patrol robot can be controlled in real time by the central processor to change its route and target location, facilitating fine-tuning and handling of emergencies by back-end control personnel.

[0018] Preferably, the supplementary patrol involves inspection personnel using the map module built into the communication terminal to learn the real-time location of the patrol robot and to inspect blind spots recorded in daily patrols, as well as locations where there are currently no patrol personnel or patrol robots. This, combined with the patrol robot, allows for a more comprehensive and timely inspection and handling of fire safety conditions in various locations within the factory area. The information exchange of goods and equipment entering and leaving the factory involves inspection personnel updating, checking, and verifying the information of goods. Goods and equipment need to be registered in a timely manner when entering or leaving the factory. Inspection personnel check and verify the information when encountering the transportation of goods and equipment within the factory area to ensure that the information of goods and equipment is always up-to-date, thereby facilitating timely control of fire safety information of goods and equipment within the factory area.

[0019] A method for using an industrial fire risk monitoring system includes the following steps:

[0020] S1. Power on, each device begins self-test;

[0021] S2. Start the central processing unit and control the activation of the factory's monitoring system;

[0022] S3. Verify the information on goods, personnel, and equipment within the factory area against the information in the cloud database, and update and overwrite it in a timely manner;

[0023] S4. Activate the monitoring of factory roads, factory warehouses, and factory workshops to monitor hazardous materials, equipment, and fire-fighting equipment in the factory area in real time.

[0024] S5. When a fire occurs, the monitoring equipment, inspection robot, or inspection personnel upload information to the central processing unit via a handheld inspection terminal.

[0025] S6. The central processing unit issues a command to retrieve the surveillance camera footage from the vicinity of the target location;

[0026] S7, the central processing unit dispatches inspection personnel and patrol robots near the target location to the target location to collect images;

[0027] S8, the central processing unit summarizes and analyzes multiple pieces of information, and analyzes and interprets the fire information at the current target location;

[0028] S9, the central processing unit predicts and displays the fire's spread trend and potential for spread;

[0029] S10: The central processing unit controls the fire-fighting equipment at the target location and in the direction with a high probability of fire spread to delock and activate the sound, light, and electrical warning devices to remind and assist relevant personnel in fire rescue work.

[0030] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a fire risk monitoring system for industrial production and its usage method, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0031] 1. The industrial production fire risk monitoring system and its usage method, by setting up inspection robots, several cameras and handheld terminals for inspection personnel to capture and collect fire information, enables the fire risk monitoring system to timely, effectively and accurately understand the fire information and specific situation at the target location. The transmission of multi-dimensional on-site information facilitates the establishment of fire scene models, helps command personnel to accurately deploy fire-fighting forces, and improves the fire rescue capabilities of the factory area.

[0032] 2. The industrial production fire risk monitoring system and its usage method, by setting up a map module that can display the relative positions of each other, enables inspection robots and inspection personnel to modify and supplement the patrol route in a timely manner, thereby making more effective use of inspection time, improving inspection efficiency, and ensuring timely response to fires in the factory area.

[0033] 3. The industrial production fire risk monitoring system and its usage method, by real-time monitoring of the temperature and humidity of hazardous materials, facilitates the assessment of the fire spread in the warehouse during a fire, thereby better reducing economic losses during a fire and providing better data support for rescue strategies for fire command personnel.

[0039] In one embodiment of the present invention, the monitoring system includes hazardous materials monitoring, material monitoring, and fire-fighting equipment monitoring. Hazardous materials monitoring specifically includes temperature monitoring, humidity monitoring, and fire spread prediction of hazardous materials. Material monitoring includes fire hazard level monitoring and fire information monitoring of materials.

The fire safety inspection system includes patrol robots and manual inspections. The patrol robot's operation functions include route planning, camera interaction, and stationary shooting. Manual inspections include supplementary patrols, information exchange on the entry and exit of goods and equipment, and on-site emergency rescue.

[0040] In addition, the communication terminal is an APP interaction platform, which can be installed on mobile phones or mobile watches. A central management platform is established within the central control system. The central management platform includes a cloud database, a map module, and a communication module. The cloud database stores employees' personal information. The APP interaction platform itself is forced to enable the location system and uses employees' personal information to log in and access the APP interaction platform. At the same time, the login information of the APP interaction platform is bound to the employees' personal information. Employee handheld terminals have basic access permissions to the cloud database and map module. Maintenance handheld terminals have access to, maintenance, and modification permissions for relevant information in the cloud database and map module. Inspection handheld terminals have partial access permissions to and can add relevant information in the cloud database and map module.

[0041] In embodiments of the present invention, temperature monitoring in hazardous materials monitoring employs a thermal imaging camera, and the temperature information from the hazardous materials monitoring is transmitted to the central processing unit via a communication base station. Furthermore, management personnel pre-set temperature warning lines for the hazardous materials at a given location based on information such as the type of hazardous material, storage time, and storage environment. When the thermal imaging camera detects that the target temperature has reached the aforementioned temperature warning line, it issues an alarm. Humidity monitoring employs a humidity monitor for real-time monitoring, and the humidity information collected by the humidity monitor is transmitted to the central processing unit via a communication base station. Management personnel pre-set humidity warning lines for the hazardous materials at a given location based on information such as the type of hazardous material, storage time, and storage environment. When the humidity information collected by the humidity monitor reaches or approaches the humidity warning line, it immediately transmits the information to the central processing unit via the communication base station and issues an alarm in a timely manner. This allows staff and back-end monitoring personnel to promptly understand the status of hazardous materials stored in the warehouse, facilitating timely detection of hazards and appropriate handling of the situation.

[0042] Specifically, fire spread prediction includes the following steps:

[0043] S1. Establish a three-dimensional warehouse model;

[0044] S2. Update and maintain hazardous materials information within the corresponding warehouse model;

[0045] S3. Calculation of the specific location of the fire after it occurs and the burning rate in different directions after the fire occurs;

[0046] S4. Speculation on the possibility of fire spreading from adjacent warehouses;

[0047] Estimated timeframe for warehouses where fires may spread, as specified in S5 and S4.

[0048] In embodiments of the present invention, relevant information needs to be registered when materials are stored, retrieved, and used. Specifically, this includes the fire hazard level, categorized as safe, flammable, and high-hazard. The safe level includes materials that are not easily combustible; the flammable level includes materials that are not easily spontaneously combustible but are susceptible to fire spread when threatened by open flames; and the high-hazard level includes materials that are prone to spontaneous combustion or fire. The audio-visual alert device is controlled by a central processing unit. When the central processing unit detects a fire at the current location, it controls the audio-visual alert device to activate, thus facilitating timely detection of a fire and retrieval of firefighting equipment by employees. Simultaneously, when the central processing unit activates the audio-visual alert device, it unlocks the firefighting equipment at the current location, ensuring that rescue personnel can... These devices are used promptly for firefighting. Meanwhile, the patrol robot uses information from a cloud database and map module to create a 3D model of the factory area. This model is then corrected with the aid of a monitoring system. Finally, patrols are conducted in areas with increasing fire safety levels. Specifically, upon reaching the target patrol area, the robot interacts with the corresponding surveillance cameras to collect on-site information, achieving a more comprehensive and timely understanding of the target location and its data for back-end monitoring personnel. Furthermore, the patrol robot can be controlled in real-time by a central processor to change its route and target location, facilitating fine-tuning and handling of emergencies by back-end control personnel.

[0049] Furthermore, supplementary patrols allow inspection personnel to use the built-in map module of the communication terminal to understand the real-time location of the patrol robot and to inspect blind spots recorded in daily patrols, as well as locations where there are currently no patrol personnel or patrol robots. This, combined with the patrol robot, enables more comprehensive and timely inspection and handling of fire safety conditions in various locations within the factory area. The information exchange for goods and equipment entering and leaving the factory allows inspection personnel to update, check, and verify information on goods. Goods and equipment need to be registered promptly when entering or leaving the factory. Inspection personnel inspect and verify information when encountering the transportation of goods and equipment within the factory area to ensure that the information on goods and equipment is always up-to-date, thereby facilitating timely control of fire safety information for goods and equipment within the factory area.

[0050] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
