Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a gas alarm and an alarm method thereof, belonging to the technical field of gas alarms. Background Art

[0002] Gas alarms are safety devices used to detect indoor gas concentrations and issue timely warnings to users. With the development of urbanization, the use of gas in households has increased, and the application of gas alarms has become increasingly widespread. However, traditional gas alarms have problems such as false alarms and untimely alarms, and cannot effectively ensure the safety of gas users. There are two main reasons for false alarms in gas alarms: one is the equipment factors of the alarm, such as the sensor has not been cleaned for a long time, the life span has expired, and the power supply is unstable; the other is the environmental factors around the alarm, such as excessive cooking fumes, ingredients containing substances such as ethanol and acetic acid, or high temperature and high humidity environment interference.

[0003] To solve the above problems, the publication number is CN115684537A, and the name of the invention is an anti-interference composite gas alarm for catering kitchens. By adding technical means such as an annular PTC heater, carbon fiber filter and semipermeable membrane, the low temperature resistance and pit interference ability of the gas alarm are improved. However, the carbon fiber filter and the semipermeable membrane cannot filter interfering gases such as ethanol. In the case of oil stains, there is a risk of clogging of the carbon fiber filter and the semipermeable membrane, which makes the sensor unable to effectively detect indoor gas and poses a safety risk; the publication number is CN105303780A, and the name of the invention is a high-interference-resistant methane gas sensing module for gas alarm. The interference gas is identified by a delayed linkage module, but the preset delay time threshold is 3.5 to 5 seconds, which makes it difficult to achieve anti-interference effects in intensive cooking activities, such as the high-density cooking environment of a commercial kitchen.

[0004] In summary, the problems of false alarms and untimely alarms of existing gas alarms are difficult to effectively solve by relying on existing solutions, which affects the user's daily usage experience and increases the risk of gas leakage for users.

[0005] Therefore, it is urgent to propose an anti-interference gas alarm and an alarm method thereof to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the invention
