[0002] With the rapid economic development, electric vehicles have been widely used. In the transportation of passenger and vehicle ro-ro ships, the transportation of electric vehicles has become very convenient. Because electric vehicles are different from other fuel vehicles, the batteries of electric vehicles are all at the bottom of the vehicle and are very dense. During transportation, it is not possible to completely guarantee that there will be no contact and other unexpected situations. The batteries of electric vehicles may sometimes have safety problems such as "explosion" and "spontaneous combustion".

[0003] With respect to the above-mentioned related technologies, the inventor believes that the traditional method of ship fire extinguishing is to extinguish the fire by directly spraying water with a high-pressure water gun. However, since the battery module of an electric vehicle is under the vehicle, the traditional method of using water to extinguish the battery fire cannot effectively cause excessive losses. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to solve the problem that the traditional marine fire extinguishing method cannot effectively extinguish the fire when the bottom of the electric vehicle catches fire, the present application provides a marine electric vehicle chassis fire extinguishing foam device.

[0005] The present application provides a marine electric vehicle chassis fire extinguishing foam device that adopts the following technical solution:

[0030] In some embodiments, the water tank 1 is an annular water tank 1, and the water inlet 11 and the covering part 12 surround a closed rectangular space. In other embodiments, multiple covering parts 12 are provided, and the water inlet 11 is relatively connected to multiple covering parts 12, and the multiple covering parts 12 are all located below the bottom plate.

[0031] The water inlet portion 11 is provided with a plurality of nozzles 2 on both sides along the horizontal direction, and the plurality of nozzles 2 on both sides are arranged in a staggered manner. The covering portion 12 is provided with a plurality of nozzles 2 on both sides along the horizontal direction, and the plurality of nozzles 2 on both sides are arranged in a staggered manner. The nozzle 2 is relatively fixedly connected to the water tank 1. When water enters the water tank 1, the water in the water tank 1 will be sprayed out through the nozzle 2. The nozzle 2 is an atomizing nozzle 2, and the spraying direction of all the nozzles 2 is upward. The nozzle 2 can atomize the water to form a water wall.

[0032] A driving assembly for driving the water tank 1 to move is provided at the bottom end of the water tank 1. In some embodiments, the driving assembly is a universal wheel 3 installed at the four corners of the water tank 1.
