Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of safety equipment for chemical laboratories, and particularly to a fire extinguishing device for a fume hood. Background Art

[0002] Laboratory fume hoods are common safety equipment in laboratories, mainly used to control the diffusion of harmful gases, vapors, dusts and odors, and provide a relatively safe and environmentally friendly environment for staff to conduct experimental operations.

[0003] However, dangerous chemical experiments are often carried out in fume hoods, and there are potential safety hazards such as misoperations by experimental personnel and out-of-control exothermic reactions during the process. To reduce the fire risk in fume hoods, fire-fighting equipment such as fire extinguishers, fire blankets, and fire sand are usually configured in the laboratory. Once a fire occurs, call the police in time, turn off the power supply at the same time, stop the experiment, and quickly use the on-site fire-fighting equipment to fight the fire during the weak initial stage of the fire; but when the fire is difficult to control, quickly evacuate the scene and wait for fire rescue. Obviously, such fire-fighting measures have problems of untimely fire extinguishing. Whether the initial fire can be controlled greatly depends on the fire knowledge and fire prevention and extinguishing capabilities of the on-site fire-fighting personnel, which is likely to turn the initially weak fire into a strong fire and eventually cause disasters.

It transmits the detected data to the control end of the control valve 9 through the transmission line 1001. After the control end of the control valve 9 receives the signal, it judges whether it is a fire state according to the data volume. If it is judged to be a fire state, the passage managed by the control valve 9 is unblocked. At this time, the fire extinguishing agent will be discharged through the nozzle 11 through the discharge port of the control valve 9 for fire extinguishing, and during the fire extinguishing process, the gas sensor 10 continuously detects the gas, so as to achieve real-time control.
