Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fire monitoring, and in particular to a fire monitoring system for ships. Background Art
[0002] A ship is a man-made means of transportation that mainly operates in geographical waters. It plays an important role in human history and modern life. It is not only the main means of water transportation, but also an important carrier of national security and leisure and entertainment. With the advancement of science and technology and the development of marine resources by humans, the future development of ships will be broader and more diversified.
[0003] Due to the special structure of ships, there are many confined spaces on ships, complex structures, narrow passages and entrances and exits. Once a fire occurs, toxic smoke and hot air can easily fill the entire cabin or room, making it difficult to evacuate personnel. There are many flammable materials on board, such as ship debris, hull decoration materials, daily necessities, cargo, etc.; there are many dangerous sources that are prone to fire, such as engine room oil rags, waste oil, cables in the living area, fuel, etc. If a fire in one part cannot be controlled in time, the fire will spread quickly and even cause an explosion. In addition, ship rescue is difficult. A fire on a ship may occur while it is sailing, anchored in the river, or docked at a port. It is difficult for maritime rescue forces to arrive at the scene in the first time, and there is a great risk of fire.
[0004] Based on the above problems, it can be seen that fire monitoring on ships is particularly important. However, the existing fire monitoring system still has 1) blind spot problems: the current ship fire monitoring system cannot cover all areas, and there are blind spots in certain corners, which can easily cause fires to be ignored. 2) Manual intervention problem: Although the system can automatically detect and alarm, the crew still needs to manually perform fire extinguishing operations, and there is a lack of fully automated solutions. 3) Lag problem: The existing monitoring system can often only monitor fires that have already occurred and cannot play a preventive role, and will still cause significant losses. In the future, ship fire monitoring systems still need to be improved. Therefore, the present invention proposes a ship fire monitoring system to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention
[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a ship fire monitoring system that can comprehensively monitor the interior of the ship, accurately identify and predict fire risks, and can also automatically perform fire extinguishing operations as soon as a fire occurs, locate the fire source and plan escape routes, thereby ensuring the safety of life and property of personnel, reducing ship losses, and reducing environmental pollution risks.
