Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fire-fighting water monitors, and in particular to a fire-fighting water monitor housing with an antifreeze protection function. Background Art

[0002] Fire monitors are firefighting devices that use water as a medium to extinguish fires from a distance. They are suitable for locations such as construction sites, petrochemical plants, hangars, warehouses, ports, and garages. They are also ideal for use on fire trucks.

[0003] Fire monitors are categorized into automatic scanning and high-altitude water monitors, solid manual fire monitors, automatic homing fire monitors, and electronically controlled fire monitors. However, existing fire monitor casings lack freeze protection during use, particularly in cold regions. Traditional casings cannot withstand low temperatures, causing internal water to freeze and expand, easily damaging the monitor and preventing it from properly extinguishing fires at critical moments. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to overcome the defects of the existing technology, a fire water monitor shell with antifreeze protection function is provided to solve the problem that the existing fire water monitor shell does not have the antifreeze function during actual use.

[0005] To achieve the above object, a fire monitor housing with antifreeze protection function is provided, comprising:

[0006] A protection box, wherein two supporting pipes arranged opposite to each other are vertically provided on the top of the protection box, a fire water monitor is arranged above the protection box and connected to the two supporting pipes, and a buffer water pipe is built into the protection box, and the buffer water pipe is connected to the supporting pipes;

[0007] a temperature sensor, installed in the protective box;

[0008] a heater, installed in the protective box;

[0009] a fan, installed in the protective box;

[0010] A controller is connected to the temperature sensor, the heater and the fan.

[0011] Furthermore, the protective box is an insulation box.

[0012] Furthermore, a heat-insulating layer is laid on the inner side of the box wall of the safe, and a lining plate is laid on the side of the heat-insulating layer away from the box wall.

[0013] Furthermore, the fan and the heater are respectively arranged on two opposite layers of the cache water pipe.

[0014] Furthermore, the heater is a first heating wire, a protective cover is installed on the outside of the fan, a second heating wire is installed on the protective cover, and the second heating wire is arranged on a side of the fan facing the first heating wire.

[0015] Furthermore, the protective cover is cylindrical, the second heating wire is arranged at the cylindrical mouth of the protective cover, there are multiple second heating wires, and the multiple second heating wires are arranged in a radial shape.

[0016] Furthermore, a receiving box is installed on the outer side of the box wall of the protective box, and a battery is placed in the receiving box. The battery is connected to the temperature sensor, the heater, the fan and the controller.

[0017] The present invention provides a beneficial effect in that the fire monitor housing with antifreeze protection is used to mount the fire monitor and supply water to the monitor via a buffer water pipe provided within the protective box. The fire monitor is mounted above the protective box via a support pipe provided on the protective box. The capacity of the buffer water pipe is significantly greater than that of the support pipe. A heater provided within the protective box provides heat to the buffer water pipe to prevent freezing of the water within the buffer water pipe. Because the capacity of the buffer water pipe is significantly greater than that of the support pipe, the support pipe can also be kept free of freezing if the buffer water pipe does not freeze. Furthermore, a temperature sensor is provided within the protective box to collect the temperature within the protective box. A controller acquires the real-time temperature within the protective box. When the temperature falls below a threshold, the heater and fan are activated to provide a continuous supply of heat to the buffer water pipe, preventing the water within the buffer water pipe and the support pipe from freezing. This ensures that the fire monitor is always available and provides water at all times. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0025] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features of the embodiments in this application can be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the present invention provides a fire water monitor housing with antifreeze protection function, including: a protection box 1, a temperature sensor 2, a heater 3, a fan 4 and a controller 5.

[0027] In this embodiment, the protective box 1 is rectangular. Two opposing support pipes 11 are vertically mounted on the top of the protective box 1. A fire monitor 6 is mounted above the protective box 1. The monitor 6 is connected to the two support pipes 11. A buffer water pipe 12 is built into the protective box 1. The buffer water pipe 12 is connected to the support pipe 11.

[0028] As a preferred embodiment, the protection box 1 is a thermal insulation box.

[0029] In this embodiment, a thermal insulation layer is laid on the inner side of the safe's wall. An inner lining board is laid on the side of the thermal insulation layer away from the wall. Preferably, the thermal insulation layer is thermal insulation rock wool.

[0030] The temperature sensor 2 is installed in the protection box 1. The heater 3 is installed in the protection box 1. The fan 4 is installed in the protection box 1.

[0031] The controller 5 is signal-connected to the temperature sensor 2 , the heater 3 and the fan 4 .

[0032] The fire monitor housing with antifreeze protection of the present invention is used to mount a fire monitor and supply water to the monitor via a buffer water pipe provided within a protective box. The fire monitor is mounted above the protective box via a support pipe provided on the protective box. The capacity of the buffer water pipe is significantly greater than that of the support pipe. A heater provided within the protective box provides heat to the buffer water pipe to prevent freezing of the water within the buffer water pipe. Because the capacity of the buffer water pipe is significantly greater than that of the support pipe, the support pipe can also remain free of freezing if the buffer water pipe does not freeze. Furthermore, a temperature sensor is provided within the protective box to collect the temperature within the protective box. A controller acquires the real-time temperature within the protective box. When the temperature falls below a threshold, the heater and fan are activated to provide a continuous supply of heat to the buffer water pipe, preventing the water within the buffer water pipe and the support pipe from freezing. This ensures that the fire monitor can be used and supplied with water at any time.

[0034] In this embodiment, the battery 14 is a storage battery, which is charged through a charging port and provides power for the temperature sensor 2 , the heater 3 , the fan 4 and the controller 5 .

[0035] See Figure 3 As shown, the fan 4 and the heater 3 are respectively arranged on two opposite layers of the buffer water pipe 12.

[0036] In this embodiment, continue to refer to Figure 3 As shown, the heater 3 is a first heating wire. A protective cover 42 is installed on the outside of the fan 4. A second heating wire 41 is installed on the protective cover 42. The second heating wire 41 is arranged on the side of the fan 4 facing the first heating wire.

[0037] As a preferred embodiment, the protective cover 42 is cylindrical. The second heating wire 41 is disposed at the cylindrical opening of the protective cover 42. There are multiple second heating wires 41, and the multiple second heating wires 41 are arranged in a radial pattern.

[0038] The fan 4 is arranged on the side of the second heating wire 41 away from the cache water pipe 12. After the first heating wire and the second heating wire 41 generate heat, the fan 4 starts to stir the air flow in the protection box 1 so that the heat is evenly distributed for the cache water pipe 12 to absorb heat and prevent freezing.

[0039] In some embodiments, the cache water pipe 12 is a metal water pipe with good thermal conductivity, such as a copper pipe.

[0040] The protective box 1 of the fire monitor housing with antifreeze protection of the present invention has buffer water pipes 12 fixedly connected to both the left and right sides of the inner cavity.

[0042] The left and right sides of the inner cavity of the protection box 1 are fixedly connected with fixing blocks. The inner side of the fixing blocks is fixedly connected with a first heating wire.

[0043] The protection box 1 is movably connected to a second movable door via a hinge. A temperature sensor 2 is fixedly connected to the middle end of the inner side of the second movable door via bolts.

[0044] A housing box 13 is bolted to one side of the protective box 1. A battery is bolted to the interior of the housing box 13. A charging port is provided at the middle of one side of the housing box 13. A first movable door is bolted to the front of the housing box 13.

[0045] A protective cover 42 is bolted to the middle of the back of the inner cavity of the box wall. The fan 4 includes a motor and blades. The motor is bolted to one side of the inner cavity of the protective cover 42. The blades are fixedly connected to the output end of the motor. A second heating wire is fixedly connected to the outer side of the protective cover 42.

[0046] A wireless signal transceiver is fixedly mounted on one side of the protective box 1 by bolts. The output end of the wireless signal transceiver is electrically connected to the external display in a unidirectional manner.

[0047] The bottom of the protective box 1 is connected to a support leg. The inner side of the support leg is provided with a universal wheel.

[0048] The working principle of the fire water monitor housing with antifreeze protection function of the present invention is as follows:

[0049] Temperature sensor 2 constantly monitors the temperature inside protective box 1. When a threshold is reached, temperature sensor 2 transmits a signal to controller 5. Controller 5 transmits the signal to the fire control center via a wireless signal transceiver, activating the second heating wire, the first heating wire, and the motor. The motor drives the fan blades to blow air, ensuring even circulation within protective box 1. The coordinated use of the second heating wire and the first heating wire rapidly heats the interior, effectively preventing damage to the equipment caused by ice formation inside the pipes.
