Description

Technical Field

[0001] This specification relates to the field of fire-fighting equipment technology, and in particular to an intelligent fire-fighting water cannon device suitable for high-altitude fire extinguishing of aircraft. Background Technology

[0002] Firefighting in typical high-rise buildings faces bottlenecks such as limited ladder height and insufficient water supply pressure. Firefighting helicopters with water buckets suffer from low efficiency and accuracy, and are greatly affected by wind direction, making it difficult to precisely target specific fire points. Existing fire monitor systems are mostly ground-mounted or vehicle-mounted, bulky and heavy, making them unsuitable for effective aircraft transport, and lack intelligent fire source identification and adaptation capabilities.

[0003] Meanwhile, existing airborne firefighting equipment is mostly a fixed, integrated structure, which cannot quickly adjust the extension position and operating attitude of the water cannon according to different fire situations and aircraft models. Furthermore, the equipment cannot be quickly disassembled when not in use, increasing the aircraft's unproductive load and affecting its range and maneuverability. In addition, existing airborne fire cannons have a limited range of spray angle adjustment, making it difficult to flexibly target different fire locations. Their water output mode is also limited, unable to adjust the spray intensity and pattern according to the fire situation, resulting in low firefighting efficiency. These shortcomings make current high-altitude firefighting operations unable to meet the firefighting needs of complex fire situations such as high-rise building fires and forest fires.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a high-altitude intelligent fire-fighting water cannon device that is adaptable to aircraft, easy to disassemble and adjust, and capable of precise fire suppression to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0038] The following description provides specific application scenarios and requirements for this specification, intended to enable those skilled in the art to make and use the contents of this specification. Various partial modifications to the disclosed embodiments will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein can be applied to other embodiments and applications without departing from the spirit and scope of this specification. Therefore, this specification is not limited to the embodiments shown, but rather to the widest scope consistent with the claims.

[0039] The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular exemplary embodiments only and is not restrictive. For example, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” used herein may also include the plural forms. When used in this specification, the terms “comprising,” “including,” and / or “containing” mean that the associated feature, integer, step, operation, element, and / or component is present, but do not preclude the presence of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and / or groups, or that other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components, and / or groups may be added to the system / method.

[0040] Considering the following description, these and other features of this specification, as well as the operation and function of the related components of the structure, and the economy of assembly and manufacture of the parts, can be significantly improved. All of these form part of this specification with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, it should be clearly understood that the drawings are for illustrative and descriptive purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of this specification. It should also be understood that the drawings are not drawn to scale.

[0041] The flowcharts used in this specification illustrate operations implemented according to some embodiments of this specification. It should be clearly understood that the operations in the flowcharts may not be implemented in a sequential order. Instead, the operations may be implemented in reverse order or simultaneously. Furthermore, one or more additional operations may be added to the flowcharts. One or more operations may be removed from the flowcharts.

[0042] In this specification, "X includes at least one of A, B, or C" means that X includes at least A, or X includes at least B, or X includes at least C. That is, X can include only one of A, B, and C, or any combination of A, B, and C, as well as other possible content / elements. Any combination of A, B, and C can be A, B, C, AB, AC, BC, or ABC.

[0043] In this specification, unless explicitly stated otherwise, the relationships between structures can be direct or indirect, complete or partial. For example, when describing "A is connected to B," unless explicitly stated that A and B are directly connected, it should be understood that A can be directly connected to B or indirectly connected to B. Similarly, when describing "A is above B," unless explicitly stated that A is directly above B (AB is adjacent and A is above B), it should be understood that A can be directly above B or indirectly above B (AB is separated by other elements, and A is above B). Furthermore, when describing "A is inside B," unless explicitly stated that A is entirely inside B, it should be understood that A can be entirely inside B or partially inside B. And so on.

[0044] In the field of aerial firefighting, the helicopter-based high-altitude intelligent fire-fighting water cannon device is specifically a precision firefighting operation system mounted on a helicopter platform. This system mainly consists of core components such as an intelligent sensing system, a precise positioning module, a remote control terminal, and a high-performance water cannon launching device. The intelligent sensing system can perceive key information such as the location, temperature, and scale of the fire source in real time, providing data support for firefighting decisions; the precise positioning module uses satellite navigation and inertial navigation technology to ensure that the water cannon can accurately aim at the fire source; and the remote control terminal allows operators to control the water cannon in real time from a safe distance, adjusting the spray angle, flow rate, and spray mode.

[0045] Currently, significant progress has been made in industrial control technologies such as intelligent sensing, precise positioning, and remote control, providing a solid technical foundation for the development of intelligent fire-fighting water cannons for helicopter-mounted high-altitude fire suppression. In the field of aerial firefighting, intelligent sensing technology enables accurate identification and real-time monitoring of fire sources, precise positioning technology ensures that water cannons accurately hit targets in complex environments, and remote control technology allows operators to complete firefighting operations from a safe distance. The continuous maturation and application of these technologies have greatly improved the efficiency and safety of aerial firefighting operations.

[0046] However, traditional firefighting methods currently face challenges in extinguishing high-rise fires, such as insufficient water pressure and limited spray height, making them ineffective. In complex terrain areas, fire trucks and personnel struggle to reach the fire source, resulting in low extinguishing efficiency. Existing helicopter-mounted water cannons also have numerous shortcomings. In terms of accuracy, they suffer from significant errors, making it difficult to accurately target the fire source and leading to poor extinguishing results. Regarding automation, they lack the ability to automatically identify the fire source and adjust the spray angle and flow rate, requiring manual adjustments by operators, increasing operational difficulty and labor intensity. Finally, in terms of safety, they lack effective protective measures for operators and equipment, increasing the risk of accidents.

[0047] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a helicopter-mounted intelligent fire-fighting water cannon system with high precision, intelligent control, and high-level safety protection. This system should be able to quickly and accurately hit the fire source, automatically adjust spray parameters to improve fire-fighting efficiency, and monitor equipment status and operator safety in real time, providing a more efficient, safe, and reliable solution for aerial firefighting operations.

[0048] Reference Figures 1 to 19This disclosure provides a high-altitude intelligent fire-fighting water cannon device suitable for aircraft 600. By deeply integrating the water cannon body with the aircraft 600 platform, this device achieves a leapfrog extension of fire-fighting operations from fixed or mobile ground carriers to aerial mobile platforms. The device innovatively employs lightweight, high-strength materials and a compact flow channel design, significantly reducing the system's weight while ensuring structural strength. This effectively improves adaptability and deployment flexibility for various aircraft 600, solving the problem of traditional fire-fighting water cannons being difficult to deploy in complex aerial environments.

[0049] As an example, Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a high-altitude fire extinguishing intelligent fire-fighting water cannon device suitable for aircraft 600 is shown, installed at the rear of aircraft 600. Figure 2 A schematic diagram of a high-altitude fire suppression intelligent fire-fighting water cannon device suitable for aircraft 600 is shown.

[0050] In some examples, this disclosure provides a high-altitude fire suppression intelligent fire monitor device suitable for an aircraft 600, detachably connected to the aircraft 600, comprising: Mounting component 100 is fixedly connected to aircraft 600; The mounting component 200 is detachably connected to the mounting component 100; The fire monitor assembly 300 is connected to the mounting assembly 200 and is configured to be detachably connected to the aircraft 600 through the cooperation of the mounting assembly 200 and the mounting assembly 100. At least one quick-release mechanism 400 is provided on the mounting component 100 or the connecting component 200, and is capable of locking or unlocking the relative positions of the mounting component 100 and the connecting component 200.

[0051] The aforementioned high-altitude intelligent fire-fighting water cannon device is fixedly connected to the aircraft 600 via the mounting component 100. Utilizing the detachable connection between the mounting component 200 and the fire-fighting water cannon component 300, it achieves multi-purpose functionality. The aircraft 600 requires no permanent modification for fire-fighting missions. During non-fire-fighting periods, the water cannon component can be quickly removed, restoring the aircraft 600 to its original functions (such as aerial photography, reconnaissance, and transportation), significantly improving its utilization rate and mission switching efficiency. This modular design effectively reduces equipment procurement and maintenance costs for fire departments and avoids resource waste caused by the idleness of the dedicated fire-fighting aircraft 600.

[0052] The fire monitor assembly 300 features remote control and spray adjustment capabilities, adapting to complex airflow environments at high altitudes. Compared to traditional aerial fire extinguishing bombs or water spraying methods, the water monitor can continuously and accurately spray extinguishing agent (firefighting water) to the core area of ​​the fire source or key spread paths, significantly improving the utilization rate of the extinguishing agent. Simultaneously, the high-altitude perspective combined with intelligent control overcomes the limitations imposed by terrain, height, and obstacles on ground-based fire monitors, enabling effective suppression of special fire situations such as high-rise building fires and forest crown fires.

[0053] The inclusion of at least one quick-release mechanism 400 enhances operational convenience. In practical applications, firefighters can quickly lock or unlock the mounting component 100 and the connecting component 200 without the need for complex auxiliary tools. This quick-release design not only significantly shortens mission preparation time, enabling the aircraft 600 to quickly mount equipment and take off in emergency fire situations, but also reduces the technical and physical burden on ground crew, thereby improving emergency response speed.

[0054] The cooperation between the mounting assembly 100 and the mounting assembly 200 ensures the stability of the fire monitor during flight and spraying, effectively counteracting the impact of the water cannon's recoil on the flight attitude of the aircraft 600. The locking function of the quick-release mechanism 400 is highly reliable, preventing the risk of accidental detachment of the equipment due to vibration or turbulence during flight. Furthermore, the detachable connection method allows for independent maintenance of the core water cannon components during aircraft 600 landing and maintenance, avoiding repeated disassembly and reassembly of the aircraft 600 body during preparation, thereby extending the service life of the aircraft 600 and the mounted equipment, and ensuring operational safety.

[0055] Because the fire monitor assembly 300 is separated from the main body of the aircraft 600 via the mounting assembly 200, the pollutants such as smoke, extinguishing agent residue, etc., that adhere to the monitor assembly after firefighting operations can be cleaned and maintained independently, avoiding direct contamination of the aircraft 600's fuselage and precision avionics systems. This physically isolated structural design not only facilitates daily cleaning and maintenance of the equipment but also reduces the risk of corrosive substances damaging the aircraft 600's structure, significantly improving the durability and reliability of the entire system in harsh firefighting environments.

[0056] In some examples, a first guide mechanism is provided between the mounting assembly 100 and the aircraft 600. The first guide mechanism can drive the mounting assembly 100 to slide relative to the aircraft 600 to adjust the extension position of the fire monitor assembly 300 relative to the aircraft 600. Alternatively, a second guide mechanism is provided between the mounting component 100 and the connecting component 200. The second guide mechanism can drive the connecting component 200 to slide relative to the mounting component 100, and the quick-release mechanism 400 can lock or unlock the current mating position of the mounting component 100 and the connecting component 200 to adjust the extension position of the fire monitor component 300 relative to the aircraft 600.

[0057] By setting a first or second guiding mechanism, the extension position of the fire monitor assembly 300 relative to the aircraft 600 is adjustable, thereby significantly expanding the practical application range and operational capabilities of the aerial firefighting equipment.

[0058] The aforementioned structure effectively solves the problem of blind spots in complex urban environments. In urban fire rescue, drones often need to operate in narrow spaces or deep alleys surrounded by tall buildings. If the position of the fire monitor relative to the aircraft 600 is fixed, the aircraft 600 is highly susceptible to collisions with building walls, window edges, or other obstacles, preventing it from reaching the fire source for spraying. By using the first guide mechanism to slide the mounting component 100, or the second guide mechanism to slide the mounting component 200, the operator can flexibly adjust the extension distance of the fire monitor, allowing the nozzle to penetrate into blind spots near the fire source (such as inside balconies or deep inside windows), while the main body of the aircraft 600 remains in a safe hovering position. This operating mode greatly reduces the risk of the aircraft 600 crashing due to collisions with obstacles, improving flight safety and operational success rate.

[0059] The aforementioned structure optimizes the aerodynamic layout and flight stability of the aircraft 600. In non-operational or transit flight states, the fire monitor assembly 300 can be retracted to a position close to the aircraft 600's center of gravity via a corresponding guiding mechanism. This shortens the lever arm of the mounted equipment, reducing its torque that interferes with the aircraft 600's attitude, thereby improving the aircraft 600's wind resistance and control response speed. In operational states, extending the water cannon to a predetermined position prevents the high-pressure recoil generated during spraying from being directly transmitted to the aircraft 600's fuselage center. The guiding and supporting function of the sliding structure effectively buffers and counteracts the jet recoil, ensuring the aircraft 600 maintains stable attitude during high-pressure water cannon spraying and preventing a decrease in water jet accuracy due to severe shaking.

[0060] In actual firefighting operations, the direction of fire spread is unpredictable. By adjusting the extension position of the water cannon, the spray angle and attack distance can be quickly changed. Combined with the hovering position fine-tuning of the 600 aircraft, dynamic tracking and precise coverage of the fire point can be achieved. Especially in scenarios where it is necessary to penetrate obstacles (such as tree branches and clothes racks) for directional spraying, the extension and retraction adjustment function allows the water cannon to flexibly avoid obstructions and directly strike the root of the fire source, significantly improving the utilization efficiency of the extinguishing agent and the fire extinguishing effect.

[0061] In summary, by adjusting the extension position of the fire monitor assembly 300 through the guide mechanism, the water cannon assembly can be retracted to a position close to the fuselage of the aircraft 600 during non-operational periods to reduce air resistance during flight and reduce the energy consumption of the aircraft 600. At the same time, the water cannon assembly can be extended to a position away from the fuselage during operation to avoid the recoil, water mist or backsplash pollutants generated by the spray from affecting the fuselage of the aircraft 600. It also provides a better spray observation angle, making it easier for operators to aim at the fire source.

[0062] In some examples, the first guide mechanism and the second guide mechanism are a mating mechanism of the guide rail structure 380 and the slide structure.

[0063] The combination of the guide rail structure 380 and the slide groove structure features mature processing technology, high guiding accuracy, and good load-bearing capacity. It can maintain a stable guiding effect in the complex airflow vibration environment at high altitudes, and is not prone to jamming or deviation, reducing the probability of mechanism failure and ensuring the reliability of the extension position adjustment.

[0064] Meanwhile, the guide rail slide structure has a small fit gap and high positioning accuracy, which can ensure the pointing accuracy of the fire monitor nozzle after adjustment and will not produce additional aiming errors due to structural gaps, thus ensuring the accuracy of fire extinguishing spray.

[0065] The above-mentioned structure has low wear and long service life. Routine maintenance only requires periodic cleaning and lubrication of the guide rail groove, resulting in low maintenance costs. It is suitable for the high-frequency standby and high-load operation requirements of fire emergency equipment.

[0066] Guide wheels can be installed on the inside of the chute structure to reduce friction.

[0067] The guide wheel converts the sliding friction between the slide and the guide rail into rolling friction, significantly reducing resistance during adjustment. This makes the extension and retraction of the fire monitor assembly 300 smoother, ensuring smooth adjustment even in harsh environments such as low temperatures and sandstorms. It prevents jamming due to excessive friction, further improving the reliability of the adjustment operation. Simultaneously, the guide wheel reduces wear on the contact surface between the guide rail and the slide, extending the overall service life of the guiding mechanism, reducing accuracy loss over long-term use, and maintaining consistently good adjustment accuracy and stability.

[0068] The slide rail structure is configured in two parallel configurations.

[0069] The two parallel sliding rail structures allow the load on the mounting component 100 or the mounting component 200 to be more even, avoiding slippage and jamming caused by unilateral force, improving the overall stability and load-bearing capacity of the structure, and effectively limiting lateral displacement during the sliding process, further ensuring the linear accuracy of the extension position adjustment, and keeping the fire monitor component 300 in the correct posture at all times, avoiding posture deviation from affecting the subsequent spray aiming accuracy.

[0070] In some examples, the relative fixed position of the mounting component 200 and the mounting component 100 is adjustable.

[0071] After the water cannon is installed on the aircraft 600, the mounting component 200 can still adjust its position or angle relative to the mounting component 100, thereby changing the overall pitch angle or horizontal yaw angle of the fire water cannon component 300. It can achieve precise fine-tuning of the muzzle aiming direction without changing the overall flight attitude of the aircraft 600.

[0072] This relatively fixed-position adjustable setting effectively counteracts the slight attitude drift that occurs when the aircraft 600 hovers. Operators can directly adjust the muzzle direction while maintaining the overall hovering position of the aircraft 600, quickly aiming at the fire source. This avoids the waste of time and energy from repeatedly adjusting the aircraft 600's attitude, and also prevents significant deviations in the muzzle aiming point during attitude adjustments, further improving the response speed and accuracy of firefighting aiming. In high-altitude operating environments with unstable airflow, this independent angle adjustment function significantly improves the stability of water cannon firing, ensuring the extinguishing agent is continuously and accurately sprayed onto the fire source area, thus improving firefighting efficiency.

[0073] The mounting component 200 is equipped with a sliding connection seat that is compatible with the slide rail structure (with four quick-release mechanisms 400 on its periphery).

[0074] After the sliding connector and the slide rail structure are fitted together, a stable sliding engagement can be achieved. Four quick-release mechanisms 400, evenly distributed around the perimeter, can simultaneously lock the relative position of the sliding connector and the slide rail structure from multiple directions. Compared to single-sided or single-point locking, the locking force is more even, preventing structural deformation caused by localized stress concentration. This significantly improves the overall structural stability after locking, effectively resisting airflow turbulence and recoil from water cannon spray during flight, preventing accidental loosening of the lock, and further ensuring structural safety during operation. When unlocking and adjusting the position are required, simply operating the four quick-release mechanisms 400 simultaneously allows for quick release of the lock, making operation convenient and meeting the emergency needs for rapid adjustment at fire scenes.

[0075] In some examples, the fire monitor assembly 300 includes: The pump body 310 has a hanging assembly 200 installed on its outer periphery. The pump body 310 is provided with an inlet 311 and an outlet 312. The inlet 311 is used to connect to an external water source. The retractable water outlet pipe 320 has its first end connected to the water outlet 312 and is used to guide the fire-fighting fluid flowing out of the water outlet 312. The outlet pipe telescopic bracket 330 has its first end installed on the pump body 310 and its second end connected to the second end of the telescopic outlet pipe 320. The outlet pipe telescopic bracket 330 can extend and retract and drive the telescopic outlet pipe 320 to extend and retract. The drive mechanism 340 is installed on the outlet pipe telescopic bracket 330 or the pump body 310 and is used to drive the outlet pipe telescopic bracket 330 to extend and retract. The intelligent sprinkler assembly 350 is installed at the second end of the retractable water outlet pipe 320. It is used to detect disasters and report disaster information. The intelligent sprinkler assembly 350 is electrically connected to the pump body 310 and can cooperate with the pump body 310 to control the water spraying mode.

[0076] The aforementioned retractable water hose 320 can flexibly adjust the extension length of the intelligent water spray assembly 350 according to the actual fire situation, allowing the water spray assembly to get closer to the fire source while ensuring the aircraft 600 maintains a safe distance, thus significantly improving spray accuracy. The water hose telescopic bracket 330 provides stable support for the retractable water hose 320, preventing significant shaking of the water hose due to water pressure and recoil during water discharge, ensuring spray stability. The drive mechanism 340 can automatically drive the telescopic bracket to move according to the control signal, eliminating the need for manual adjustment, adapting to the needs of intelligent control, and improving the adjustment response speed. The intelligent water spray assembly 350 integrates a disaster detection function, which can collect information such as the location of the fire source and the range of the fire in real time and transmit it back to the control terminal. At the same time, it can automatically adjust the water flow rate, spray angle, and spray mode according to the detected disaster situation, achieving intelligent and precise fire extinguishing, effectively improving fire extinguishing efficiency, and reducing the waste of extinguishing agents.

[0077] In some specific application scenarios, the mounting component 200 can be slid into place along the slide rail structure via the sliding connecting seat, according to the installation space of the aircraft 600 (when a slide rail structure is provided between the mounting component 200 and the mounting component 100). The entire assembly is then completed by simultaneously locking the four quick-release mechanisms 400. This method occupies little space and is convenient for installation and disassembly, facilitating daily maintenance and repair. Upon reaching the fire area, based on the location of the fire, the overall fore-and-aft position of the fire monitor component 300 can be adjusted via the slide rail structure. After locking in place, the horizontal and pitch firing angles of the intelligent water spray component 350 can be adjusted via the angle adjustment mechanism. When there are fluctuations in the airflow, the two independent angle adjustment mechanisms can respectively make real-time fine adjustments to correct the angle, offsetting the angle deviation caused by the airflow and ensuring spray accuracy. After completing the angle positioning, the drive mechanism 340 pushes the water outlet pipe telescopic bracket 330 to extend, causing the telescopic water outlet pipe 320 to extend forward, allowing the intelligent water spray assembly 350 to extend to the working position outside the aircraft 600. Subsequently, the intelligent water spray assembly 350 activates disaster detection, transmitting information such as the location and temperature of the fire source to the control terminal. At the same time, it automatically adjusts the water flow rate and spray mode according to the fire situation to complete the precise fire extinguishing operation. After the fire extinguishing operation is completed, the drive mechanism 340 pulls the water outlet pipe telescopic bracket 330 to retract, causing the telescopic water outlet pipe 320 and the intelligent water spray assembly 350 to retract into the cabin of the aircraft 600, avoiding structural damage from airflow impact during flight.

[0078] Furthermore, the intelligent sprinkler assembly 350 includes a nozzle body, a fire source detection module, and a control module. The fire source detection module and the control module are electrically connected. The fire source detection module is used to collect fire source location information, and the control module can adjust the spray angle and water flow rate of the nozzle body according to the fire source location information. The fire source detection module can automatically lock the fire source location, and the control module can automatically adjust the nozzle parameters according to the collected location information. This eliminates the need for operators to manually aim and adjust repeatedly, greatly reducing the difficulty of operation. Even in complex fire environments, it can quickly and accurately hit the fire source, realizing intelligent fire extinguishing operations that automatically track the fire source and dynamically adjust the spray parameters.

[0079] In some examples, the inlet 311 and the outlet 312 are located on the same side of the pump body 310 and are arranged in parallel.

[0080] This parallel arrangement on the same side can significantly shorten the axial length of the pump body 310, optimize the overall structural layout of the pump body 310, make the device more compact, and better suited to the installation requirements of the small mounting space of the aircraft 600. At the same time, the arrangement of the inlet and outlet water pipes is also more concentrated, which facilitates the unified planning and layout of the pipes, reduces the pressure loss caused by pipe bends, improves water delivery efficiency, and facilitates subsequent pipe inspection and maintenance.

[0081] Furthermore, the inlet 311 and outlet 312 can be set on different sides, or they can be set on the same side without parallel configuration, depending on the specific needs.

[0082] Furthermore, a pressurizing impeller is installed inside the pump body 310. The pressurizing impeller is driven by a motor and is used to pressurize the fire-fighting fluid entering the pump body 310, so that the fire-fighting fluid can obtain sufficient spray pressure to meet the needs of high-altitude long-distance spraying, and ensure that the extinguishing agent can accurately reach the fire source location without causing deviation in the spray landing point due to insufficient pressure.

[0083] Furthermore, the drive mechanism 340 is either an electric actuator or an electro-hydraulic actuator. The electric actuator has a simple structure, is easy to control, does not require additional hydraulic circuits, and is lighter in weight, meeting the lightweight requirements of the 600 aircraft. The electro-hydraulic actuator has greater thrust and can maintain a stable telescopic position under high water pressure and high load conditions, and has stronger impact resistance. The appropriate drive type can be flexibly selected according to the rated flow and pressure requirements of the device.

[0084] Furthermore, the water outlet pipe telescopic bracket 330 adopts a multi-joint hinged scissor telescopic structure. The scissor structure has a large telescopic stroke, a small volume after retraction, high structural strength, and uniform stress distribution. It can effectively balance the recoil force on the telescopic water outlet pipe 320, ensuring structural stability during the telescopic process and operation. At the same time, after retraction, it can be arranged close to the pump body 310 without occupying too much mounting space, which is suitable for the space restriction requirements of the aircraft 600.

[0085] In some examples, the pump body 310 is equipped with a processor and a control panel 313. The processor is able to receive disaster information and control the operating mode of the pump body 310. The pump body 310 has an automatic control mode and a manual control mode.

[0086] The above structure can achieve a certain degree of automatic control. In automatic control mode, the processor can directly receive the disaster information transmitted back by the intelligent sprinkler component 350 and automatically complete a series of operations such as adjusting the extension position of the water cannon, correcting the spray angle, and adjusting the water flow rate. No manual intervention from the operator is required, which greatly improves the fire extinguishing response speed. It is especially suitable for scenarios where the fire develops rapidly and a rapid response is required. In manual control mode, the operator can manually input operation commands according to the actual situation on site to directly control the actions of each mechanism and the water spray parameters, flexibly responding to complex and special fire scenarios. The two modes are easy to switch between and can adapt to different operational needs, improving the environmental adaptability of the device.

[0087] In some examples, the retractable outlet pipe 320 includes two outlet sub-pipes that are actually nested together and can slide relative to each other.

[0088] The aforementioned structure is a telescopic, socket-type structure, which is easy to manufacture, facilitates sealing connections, and ensures smooth, unobstructed expansion and contraction. It meets expansion and contraction length requirements while maintaining the overall structural strength and sealing performance of the pipeline, preventing leakage and loss of high-pressure water at the expansion points, and ensuring stable water pressure. Furthermore, the socket structure fits tightly, resulting in a compact overall volume after contraction, saving storage space and adapting to the space constraints of the F / A-600 aircraft. Sealing rings are installed at the connection points of adjacent outlet subpipes to enhance the pipeline's sealing performance, prevent high-pressure water leakage, ensure stable water pressure, and prevent sand, dust, and water mist from entering the pipeline gaps, thus preventing impurities from abrading the pipe walls and extending the pipeline's service life.

[0089] In some examples, the shape of the retractable outlet pipe 320 can be set as needed, and the shapes of multiple outlet sub-pipes can be matched to maintain a water seal during extension and retraction.

[0090] Among the multiple water outlet sub-pipes, the outermost sub-pipe is connected to the water supply end of the fire monitor, while the innermost sub-pipe is connected to the multi-functional intelligent sprinkler head 352. This design features a short water delivery path and low pressure loss, ensuring the sprinkler head 352's water range and fire extinguishing power. Driven by the drive mechanism 340 and the water outlet pipe telescopic bracket 330, each sub-pipe can extend sequentially along the axial direction, pushing the sprinkler head 352 to a position closer to the fire. Alternatively, in the retracted state, they can retract sequentially into the outermost sub-pipe, controlling the overall retracted length to accommodate the limited mounting space of the aircraft 600.

[0091] Furthermore, a guide and limiting structure can be set between multiple water outlet sub-pipes to prevent relative rotation during the extension and retraction process, ensuring that the direction of the end intelligent water spray component 350 remains stable and that aiming deviation is not caused by relative torsion of the water outlet sub-pipes. At the same time, it can also limit the maximum extension length to prevent disassembly and detachment due to excessive extension and retraction, thus ensuring structural safety.

[0092] The cross-sectional shape can be circular or polygonal. Circular cross-sections are easy to process, easy to seal, have uniform stress distribution, and good structural strength, making them a commonly used and preferred cross-section. Polygonal cross-sections can achieve circumferential limiting, eliminating the need for additional anti-rotation structures, simplifying the overall structure, and reducing the weight of the device.

[0093] In some examples, the outlet pipe telescopic bracket 330 is a folding bracket, and the drive mechanism 340 can control the folding gap of the folding bracket to adjust the telescopic length of the folding bracket.

[0094] The folding bracket can easily change its overall length by adjusting the folding gap. Its simple transmission structure and fast response speed allow for large-stroke extension and retraction without complex transmission components, resulting in low control difficulty, low failure probability, and improved structural reliability for high-altitude operations. Furthermore, the folding bracket's small overall thickness when retracted allows it to fit snugly against the pump body 310, further saving installation space and meeting the mounting space requirements of the aircraft 600. When extended, the folding bracket provides high support rigidity, effectively supporting the weight of the retractable water hose 320 and the recoil generated by the water cannon spray, preventing significant swaying of the water hose during operation, ensuring a stable spray angle, and improving firefighting accuracy.

[0095] In some examples, the smart sprinkler assembly 350 includes: The water pipe 351 has a first end connected to the second end of the retractable water outlet pipe 320. The water pipe 351 has at least two turning parts, and the at least two turning parts rotate in different directions. The water nozzle 352 is connected to the second end of the steering water pipe 351. An adjustable turbine mechanism is provided inside the water nozzle 352 so that the water nozzle 352 has multiple water output modes. Detector 353, installed on sprinkler head 352, is used to detect the disaster situation in the fire extinguishing area.

[0096] In the above structure, one of the steering parts can control the water head 352 to rotate horizontally, and the other steering part can control the water head 352 to rotate in the pitch direction. The two independent steering parts work together to achieve aiming adjustment of the water head 352 at any angle within the hemispherical range. It has a large coverage area, flexible adjustment, and can quickly aim at the fire source after it has deviated. It can complete the aiming correction without adjusting the overall position of the fire monitor, and the response speed is faster.

[0097] The adjustable turbine mechanism can adjust the diffusion angle and range of the water from the nozzle 352 by changing the turbine blade angle or position. It can spray a high-flow-rate, direct, dense water jet for long-distance, targeted fire suppression, or spray a wide-area, diffused water mist to cover a large burning area, suppressing fire and toxic fumes. This meets the fire suppression needs of different fire types, and the water output mode can be quickly switched without changing the nozzle, adapting to changing fire conditions on site. The detector 353 can collect real-time fire source location, ambient temperature, smoke concentration, and other disaster information, transmitting this information back to the processor in real time. This provides data support for automatically adjusting the aiming angle and water output mode, enabling dynamic tracking and fire suppression.

[0098] Furthermore, with the adjustable turbine mechanism, the spray head 352 can switch between multiple water output modes based on intelligent calculations or manually according to the environment. Specific water output modes include, but are not limited to: Centralized pressurized columnar water output mode (refer to) Figure 12In this mode, the water jet has a strong impact force, the concentrated column of water has a high pressure per unit area, and it can directly disperse combustibles such as grass and wood, separate the flame from the combustibles, and at the same time suppress reignition. In addition, the column of water has low air resistance and a long range, which allows operators to deal with fires in flammable, explosive or high-temperature radiation environments from a safe distance.

[0099] Fog umbrella water pattern (refer to) Figure 13 The internal turbine mechanism adjusts the spray to produce high-speed atomized water. Because the droplets are extremely fine and cover a large area, it has good cooling, oxygen isolation and smoke dispersal effects. It can be used to suppress large-area surface fires and can also consume a large amount of oxygen to suffocate and extinguish fires.

[0100] Intermittent pulse water spray mode: Intermittent spraying is achieved through internal pressurization of the machine, which is used for demolition or extinguishing specific types of fires.

[0101] In some examples, the steering section includes a first steering section 3511 and a second steering section 3513 spaced apart, with the pipes at the locations of the first steering section 3511 and the second steering section 3513 having different orientations. The first steering part 3511 includes a first driving member 3512 and a first rotating sleeve. The first driving member 3512 and the first rotating sleeve cooperate to drive the spray head 352 to rotate in the first direction. The second steering part 3513 includes a second driving member 3514 and a second rotating sleeve. The second driving member 3514 and the second rotating sleeve cooperate to drive the spray head 352 to rotate in the second direction.

[0102] The aforementioned structure, through the arrangement of a first steering section 3511 and a second steering section 3513 at intervals, coupled with their respective independent drive components and rotating sleeves, achieves independent driving and control of the spray head 352 in the first and second directions. This dual-steering section structure can effectively expand the spray coverage of the spray head 352, significantly eliminate spray dead zones, and improve the flexibility of water spraying operation; at the same time, the split drive structure avoids a single rotating mechanism bearing complex torques, reduces mechanical wear, and thus ensures the accuracy and stability of steering actions.

[0103] Furthermore, the first and second directions can be spatially perpendicular to each other, with the first direction being the horizontal circumferential direction and the second direction being the pitch direction. The two independent rotation adjustment structures are independently controlled by different drive components, allowing for individual fine-tuning of the angle without mutual interference. This results in higher adjustment precision and faster response, quickly offsetting positional deviations caused by the aircraft's 600-degree flight airflow, ensuring the water nozzle 352 is always aimed at the fire source, guaranteeing fire extinguishing accuracy. The rotating sleeve structure allows the pipe itself to rotate directly, eliminating the need for additional steering and guiding structures. This results in a more compact overall structure, smoother water flow path, no additional water pressure loss, and stable spray pressure.

[0104] Furthermore, the aforementioned directional water pipe 351 enables high-precision orientation of the spray head 352. The base of the spray head 352 is equipped with a dual-axis (pitch and horizontal) high-precision servo motor (corresponding to the first drive component 3512 controlling the first steering part 3511, and the second drive component 3514 controlling the second steering part 3513), which can adjust the spray angle in multi-axis linkage according to the fire source positioning information to achieve real-time dynamic tracking spray. At the same time, the high-definition camera and infrared camera collect information to automatically determine whether there is a risk of reignition after fire extinguishing and switch modes to extinguish sparks over a large area, cooling the environment to reduce risks. Furthermore, the water nozzle 352 can also be manually controlled. Operators can manually adjust the direction and water flow mode of the nozzle 352 according to the actual fire situation, flexibly responding to special and complex fire situations that are difficult to handle with automatic control. The combination of manual and automatic control further enhances the operational flexibility of the device. All of the above settings are designed to accurately project high-pressure water or foam to the fire source and automatically adjust the water cannon's attitude and water pressure according to the movement of the water cannon carrier, achieving precise fire extinguishing within the water cannon's projection range under any circumstances.

[0105] In some examples, a first bend 3515 is provided between the first steering part 3511 and the second steering part 3513, and a second bend 3516 is provided between the second steering part 3513 and the spray head 352. The first bend 3515 and the second bend 3516 can change the direction of water flow in the steering water pipe 351.

[0106] By using two bends and two steering parts in different directions, the spray head 352 can achieve a larger angle adjustment range, avoid structural interference during adjustment, and ensure that the spray head 352 will not collide with the retractable water outlet pipe 320 or the steering water pipe 351 when it is tilted or rotated at a large angle. At the same time, the bend structure can adjust the water flow direction to match the water inlet direction of the spray head 352, ensuring smooth water flow when the water enters the spray head 352, reducing water head loss, and ensuring stable spray pressure and range.

[0107] In some examples, detector 353 includes thermal imaging camera 3531; and At least one of the following: a video capture camera 3532, radar, and acoustic detector.

[0108] By combining different types of detection devices, it is possible to accurately locate the fire source in complex fire environments such as high-altitude dense smoke and obstruction, and identify the distribution of trapped personnel and obstacles inside the fire. The thermal imaging camera 3531 can penetrate smoke to capture the ignition point area with abnormal temperature. Combined with the visible light image capture camera 3532, it allows ground operators to intuitively obtain the scene of the fire. Radar or acoustic detectors can further supplement the detection of fire sources and personnel behind obstructions, improve the accuracy of fire source location, and provide accurate data support for intelligent adjustment of water cannon spray angle and range, ensuring the efficiency and safety of fire fighting operations.

[0109] Upon arrival at the fire scene, the machine can automatically calculate the distance using camera footage and infrared sensors, and then automatically deploy the water pipe telescopic support 330 via hydraulic or electric push rods. This, together with the telescopic water pipe 320, forms a stable triangular or multi-point support platform, ensuring the overall stability of the machine when launching water jets.

[0110] In some examples, a fire hose and a fire sprinkler can be connected to the outlet 312, and the fire sprinkler can move closer to or further away from the fire monitor assembly 300 under the influence of the outlet 312.

[0111] Once the aircraft 600 arrives at the fire scene, the fire sprinkler head can be extended via the water outlet 312, quickly pushing it to the appropriate working position. Firefighting operations can commence immediately without the need for manual extension of the water supply pipeline. After the operation is completed, the water outlet 312 retracts the fire sprinkler head, reducing the space occupied by the device and not affecting the flight performance of the aircraft 600. This retractable structure allows for a longer operating distance during firefighting operations, meeting the need for precise firefighting from high altitudes, while also enabling retraction and storage during relocation flights, adapting to the limited payload space of the aircraft 600 and balancing operational performance with flight adaptability.

[0112] In some examples, the quick-release mechanism 400 includes a snap-fit ​​structure disposed on the mounting assembly 200. The aircraft 600 has a hook or slot adapted to the snap-fit ​​structure, allowing the snap-fit ​​structure to lock into the hook or slot. By integrating the snap-fit ​​structure onto the mounting assembly 200 and engaging with the hook or slot on the aircraft 600, quick locking and disengagement between the mounting assembly 200 and the aircraft 600 can be achieved. This structure utilizes the elastic deformation characteristics of the snap-fit, allowing the user to automatically lock it by applying pressure during installation and unlock it by simple levering or pressing during disassembly. This effectively simplifies the installation and disassembly process, eliminating the need for additional tools, significantly improving work efficiency, and ensuring the stability of the connection.

[0113] Alternatively, the quick-release mechanism 400 includes a latching structure located on the mounting component 200. This latching structure can lock onto the mounting component 100, which has multiple mating positions adapted to the latching structure. By providing multiple mating positions on the mounting component 100, the user can adjust the locking relationship between the latching structure and different mating positions according to the actual load size or center of gravity position. This method not only enables quick assembly and disassembly of the mounting component 100 and the mounting component 200 but also provides the system with position adjustment functionality, making the installation of mounted objects more flexible and adaptable to different mounting requirements, thus improving the system's versatility and adaptability.

[0114] Alternatively, the quick-release mechanism 400 includes a latching structure mounted on the mounting component 100. This latching structure can lock onto the mounting component 200, which has multiple mating positions adapted to the latching structure. By mounting the latching structure on the mounting component 100 and arranging multiple mating positions on the mounting component 200, flexible adjustment of the position of the payload relative to the aircraft 600 is achieved. When installing the mounting component 100, the user can select the appropriate mating position for locking as needed, making the operation simple and quick. This solution integrates the adjustment mechanism on one side of the mounting component 100, facilitating customized settings for specific payloads, optimizing spatial layout, and enhancing connection stability under different payload scenarios.

[0115] Alternatively, the quick-release mechanism 400 includes a matching first and second latch. The first latch is mounted on the mounting component 100, and the second latch is mounted on the connecting component 200. This dual-latch design allows the first and second latches to be independently mounted on the mounting component 100 and connecting component 200, respectively. This separate arrangement makes the connection interface more symmetrical and balanced, resulting in a more uniform force distribution. When locked, the first and second latches engage or snap together, providing reliable connection strength. During disassembly, the operation can be quickly completed by separating the two latches, effectively reducing the wear risk of a single-latch structure and extending the service life of the mechanism.

[0116] Alternatively, the quick-release mechanism 400 includes a flexible pin assembly mounted on the aircraft 600. The mounting component 200 has multiple pin holes, allowing the flexible pin assembly to lock into different mating positions through these holes. Utilizing the telescopic nature of the flexible pin assembly, multi-position adjustment and locking of the mounting component 200 relative to the aircraft 600 are achieved. The flexible pin assembly automatically inserts into the pin holes under elastic force, achieving accurate positioning and preventing accidental detachment of the mounting component 200. Users can unlock and move the mounting component 200 to other pin hole positions by pulling the pin; the operation is smooth and provides clear tactile feedback. This structure is particularly suitable for scenarios requiring frequent adjustments to the mounting position, ensuring adjustment accuracy and connection reliability.

[0117] Alternatively, the quick-release mechanism 400 includes a flexible pin assembly mounted on the mounting assembly 200. The mounting assembly 100 has multiple pin holes, and the flexible pin assembly can lock different mating positions through these holes. By placing the flexible pin assembly on one side of the mounting assembly 200 and directly engaging the pin holes on the mounting assembly 100, the position of the mounting assembly 100 relative to the mounting assembly 200 is adjusted. This layout simplifies the structural design of the aircraft 600 body, concentrating adjustment functions in the mounting assembly 200, facilitating modular production and maintenance. Through the engagement of the flexible pin with different pin holes, users can quickly switch the installation angle or fore-and-aft position of the mounting assembly 100, meeting diverse mounting requirements while ensuring structural stability after locking.

[0118] The aforementioned quick-release structure enables rapid locking and separation of the fire monitor device from the aircraft 600's mounting position. Assembly or disassembly can be completed without the need for additional tools, facilitating the rapid replacement of fire monitor devices with different flow rates and functions according to the type of fire. It also allows for rapid replacement and repair in case of malfunction, improving emergency response efficiency. Furthermore, by selecting different mounting positions, the mounting location of the device on the aircraft 600 can be adjusted to adapt to the mounting space layout of different aircraft models, balancing the aircraft 600's center of gravity and ensuring flight safety.

[0119] The snap-fit ​​structure and elastic pin assembly disclosed herein can both be configured as high-load-bearing structures, thereby enabling the device to be stably fixed on the aircraft 600.

[0120] In some examples, a resilient pin assembly is disposed on the hook assembly 200. The resilient pin assembly includes a plug and a reset member. The plug is slidably connected and passes through the hook assembly 200. One end of the reset member is connected to the plug and the second end of the reset member is connected to the hook assembly 200. When no external force is applied, the reset component moves the connector toward the insertion pin hole to reset.

[0121] When the mounting position needs to be adjusted, the above structure allows the connector to be pulled outward so that its end disengages from the current pin hole, thereby moving the mounting component 100 to adjust its position. Once in place, the connector is released, and the reset component will push the connector to automatically insert into the corresponding pin hole to complete the locking. The operation process is simple and smooth, the locking state is stable, and it will not loosen due to the vibration of the aircraft 600 during flight.

[0122] In some examples, the pump body 310 in the fire monitor assembly 300 can be used independently of the aircraft 600, and the pump body 310 is provided with at least two lifting handles 314 on its periphery, which are foldable.

[0123] When it is necessary to detach the pump body 310 from the aircraft 600 for ground firefighting operations, the pump body 310 can be quickly removed from the mounting structure. After unfolding the lifting handle 314, two operators can directly lift and transfer it to narrow areas, mountainous areas, or multi-story building corridors that fire trucks cannot reach to carry out firefighting operations. After the transfer is completed, the lifting handle 314 can be folded and stored to reduce the space occupied, adapt to the placement needs of narrow operation scenarios, and take into account both the convenience of transportation and space adaptability.

[0124] When used alone, it can be called a portable pump. The pump body 310 is equipped with a power output interface that meets national standards (such as 12V / 24V DC and 220V AC), which can provide emergency power for lighting equipment, communication equipment, small power tools, etc. at the fire scene, realizing "one machine for two uses".

[0125] In some examples, four lifting handles 314 are provided, which are distributed at the corner positions around the high-altitude fire extinguishing intelligent fire monitor device.

[0126] Four lifting handles 314 are arranged at the four corners of the device, which can be lifted and transported by multiple workers in a coordinated manner, distributing the weight of the device, reducing the load on a single person, making it easier to maintain the balance of the device when moving it in areas with complex terrain, improving the stability of the transportation process, reducing the damage to the internal parts of the device caused by bumps, and also accommodating workers of different sizes to grip and exert force, further improving the convenience of manual transfer.

[0127] In some examples, the lifting handle 314 is at least one of a ring handle, a column handle, a flexible wristband, or a shoulder strap.

[0128] Different types of handles can be adapted to different handling needs. Ring or column handles provide a firm grip and facilitate quick short-distance transfers; flexible wristbands or shoulder straps can relieve some of the operator's hand strength, making them suitable for long-distance transfers in complex terrains, improving the comfort of the handling process, and making manual transfer operations more flexible and labor-saving.

[0129] In some examples, aircraft 600 includes at least one of helicopters, drones, airships, and hot air balloons.

[0130] This device is compatible with different types of aerial vehicles. Helicopters have a large payload capacity and can carry high-flow fire cannons to deal with large-area forest or high-rise building fires. Drones do not require pilots and can operate close to high-risk fire sites, reducing the risk of casualties. Airships or hot air balloons have long flight times and can hover over fire sites for extended periods to continuously suppress the fire. This device adapts to the high-altitude firefighting needs of different scales and scenarios, expanding its applicability.

[0131] In this embodiment, the fire water source can be provided by the water storage tank mounted on the aircraft 600, or it can be continuously drawn from rivers, lakes or fire hydrants on the ground through long water pipes. The water supply method can be flexibly selected according to the operation scenario to ensure the continuous operation of fire fighting.

[0132] In some examples, the aircraft 600 is a helicopter, and the mounting assembly 100 is located on the underside of the helicopter fuselage or inside the cabin.

[0133] The mounting assembly 100 is positioned under the fuselage, allowing the fire monitor to be aimed directly downwards at the fire on the ground. The water jet path is not obstructed by the fuselage structure, and the range of spray angle adjustment is greater. It also facilitates quick disassembly and replacement of the fire monitor. Alternatively, if the fire monitor is positioned inside the cabin, it can protect the fire monitor from airflow and collisions with external debris during flight. Once the aircraft arrives at the work area, the cabin door can be opened to extend the fire monitor for operation. The two configuration options can be flexibly selected based on the helicopter model and firefighting mission requirements, adapting to different operational scenarios.

[0134] In some examples, the pump body 310 of the fire monitor assembly 300 is also connected to a battery and / or a power generation assembly 360, and a power interface 315 is provided on the outer periphery of the pump body 310.

[0135] During operation, the drive motor can be powered by a battery to drive the water pump to complete the water suction and pressurization operation. It can start independently without an external power source, making it suitable for field fires or sudden fires where there is no external power supply. When paired with the 360 ​​power generation component, it can continuously generate electricity using fuel power, extending the operating time and meeting the power supply needs of long-term large-scale firefighting. During operation, it can also output electrical energy through the power interface 315 to power other emergency equipment such as on-site lighting equipment and demolition tools, expanding the functionality and practicality of the device and improving the emergency response capability at the fire scene.

[0136] When the pump body 310 detaches from the aircraft 600 to carry out ground operations independently, its built-in power supply system can directly provide power to the water pump without the need for additional power supply equipment, further enhancing the convenience of independent operation.

[0137] When disconnected from external power supply, the battery can directly provide power to the hand pump, drive mechanism 340 and detection device to meet the needs of independent operation; the power generation component 360 can generate electricity synchronously using the pump body power during operation to supplement the battery power and extend the working time, and can also output power to supply other emergency equipment such as emergency lighting and demolition tools on site, thus expanding the functional scenarios of the device.

[0138] After setting the external power interface 315, it can also be directly connected to an external municipal power supply or other power supply equipment for continuous power supply, further improving the endurance and adapting to the needs of long-term continuous fire fighting operations. At the same time, the hybrid power supply mode also improves the power supply reliability of the device and avoids interruption of fire fighting operations due to a single power supply failure.

[0139] In some examples, the power generation component 360 includes an internal combustion engine 361, a generator 362, and a closed-loop water cooling system 370. The internal combustion engine 361 generates mechanical energy and converts it into electrical energy through the generator 362. The closed-loop water cooling system 370 at least partially covers the heat-generating areas of the internal combustion engine 361 or the generator 362. The cooling medium of the closed-loop water cooling system 370 is flowing fire-fighting water. In the above configuration, since there is a continuous flow of fire-fighting water through the water cannon pipeline during the fire-fighting operation, the fire-fighting water is used as a cooling medium to remove the heat generated by the internal combustion engine 361 and the generator 362. There is no need to configure an independent cooling fan or an external cooling water tank. This simplifies the overall structure, reduces the weight of the device, and allows the fire-fighting water to continuously remove heat, ensuring that the power generation component 360 can work stably for a long time without overheating and shutdown. This improves the reliability of the power generation component 360 and also saves the maintenance cost of an independent cooling system.

[0140] The internal combustion engine 361 disclosed herein is one type of engine. However, this disclosure is not limited to internal combustion engine 361; other types of engines, such as gas engines, steam engines, or electric motors, can be configured as needed. These can be adapted and adjusted according to actual usage scenarios, cost requirements, and power requirements to meet the power output needs of different specifications of fire monitors and ensure stable and reliable water pump pressurization. In this scenario, the electric motor can be driven by an external power source, and other functions, such as directly driving the pump, can also be implemented.

[0141] The internal combustion engine 361 and some hydraulic components within the pump body 310 are within the cooling range of the closed-loop water cooling system 370.

[0142] Furthermore, the power generation component 360 is equipped with an intelligent clutch 363. When the device needs to generate electricity for normal operation, the intelligent clutch 363 engages, transferring the mechanical energy of the internal combustion engine 361 to the generator 362 to complete power generation. When power generation is not needed or the water pump needs to be started, the intelligent clutch 363 disengages, cutting off power transmission, allowing the internal combustion engine 361 to only drive the water pump or stop power output, achieving flexible power distribution and avoiding unnecessary energy consumption. At the same time, the flowing fire-fighting water used in fire-fighting operations is used as a cooling medium to remove the heat generated by the internal combustion engine 361 and the generator 362, eliminating the need for an additional independent air-cooled radiator. This simplifies the device structure, reduces the overall weight, and provides more stable cooling, ensuring that the power generation component 360 can operate continuously for extended periods without overheating, thus improving the reliability and stability of the power generation component 360.

[0143] After the cooling medium is fire-fighting water itself, it can be cooled by a continuous flow of water through a high-efficiency heat exchanger, ensuring that the system maintains stable operation during long-term, high-load fire-fighting operations. This avoids the problem of insufficient heat dissipation of air-cooled systems at high altitudes or in harsh environments. At the same time, this solution simplifies the internal structure and reduces the overall weight of the machine.

[0144] During specific firefighting operations, the internal combustion engine 361 continuously generates a large amount of heat. The closed-loop water cooling system 370 directly utilizes the firefighting water being transported as the cooling medium, eliminating the need for an additional independent cooling water tank and cooling fan. This simplifies the device structure, reduces the overall weight, and allows the flowing water to continuously remove heat, ensuring that the internal combustion engine 361 and hydraulic components are always within a suitable operating temperature range. This prevents shutdowns or malfunctions caused by overheating and ensures stable operation of the device over a long period. At the same time, the closed-loop structure prevents cooling medium leakage and avoids contamination of the firefighting water by the cooling system, without affecting normal water supply and firefighting operations.

[0145] In some examples, a remote control 500 is provided on the pump body 310, which can be a wired or wireless remote control.

[0146] Wired remote control is highly reliable, and the signal is not affected by electromagnetic interference in the fire scene, ensuring stable transmission of control commands; Wireless remote control eliminates the need for connecting cables, allowing for more flexible and free operation. Operators can control the device from a safe distance, away from the dangers of fire.

[0147] Two remote control modes can be selected according to the on-site operating conditions, allowing operators to adjust the water cannon angle, flow rate, and on / off state without having to get close to the fire source, improving the safety and ease of operation, and adapting to the control needs of different fire scene scenarios.

[0148] In some examples, the remote controller 500 is wired. The remote controller 500 includes a control wire connected to the pump body 310 and a remote control handle connected to the control wire. Operators (firefighters and observers) can issue control commands from a safe position by holding the remote control handle, ensuring the machine's firefighting efficiency and reliability in complex electromagnetic environments. The control wire directly transmits electrical signals, unaffected by smoke or electromagnetic interference from the fire scene. Signal transmission is stable and reliable, preventing mis-issuance or loss of commands and ensuring firefighting operations proceed as planned. Furthermore, the wired connection eliminates the need for additional charging of the remote controller 500, reducing the risk of power outages and loss of connection during prolonged operation.

[0149] Alternatively, the remote controller 500 can be a wireless remote controller, with a wireless transceiver adapted to the remote controller 500 installed on the pump body 310. Operators can remotely send control commands wirelessly without the need for control cables, allowing for greater freedom of movement and adjustments to their position based on the fire situation, maintaining a safe and well-visible location for operation. It also supports direct remote control of the device from the ground command center, facilitating unified dispatch of firefighting resources and meeting the command and dispatch needs of large-scale, complex fire scenes. The wireless remote control mode can also be adapted to the airborne control system of the aircraft 600, enabling coordinated control of the flight control system and the fire monitor system. This allows pilots or ground operators to simultaneously adjust the fire monitor's operating status while controlling the aircraft 600, simplifying the operation process and improving operational response speed.

[0150] Alternatively, a control panel 313 may be installed on the pump body 310.

[0151] Operators can operate the device directly through the control panel 313. When the remote control mode experiences signal abnormalities or malfunctions, the control panel 313 can serve as a backup control method to ensure the smooth progress of the operation.

[0152] The control panel 313 integrates functional modules such as switches, parameter adjustment, and status display. Operators can intuitively read core parameters such as the operating pressure of the device, the speed of the internal combustion engine 361, and the remaining fuel, so as to keep abreast of the device's working status, facilitate quick adjustment of the work plan, and troubleshoot and handle sudden abnormal situations.

[0153] Furthermore, this disclosure has multiple operating modes: The 352 intelligent sprinkler head in fully automatic mode: It uses high-definition video capture camera 3532 and thermal imaging camera 3531 to capture information from the big data to locate the fire point and automatically adjust to the most suitable spray angle to extinguish the fire. At the same time, it continues to check whether there are other fire points or whether there is a risk of reignition through the information fed back by the dual cameras. The information obtained will prioritize extinguishing the fire and then deal with the risk of reignition.

[0154] The 352 intelligent water cannon features remote wireless control mode: Through an encrypted data link, the operator can remotely control all functions of the water cannon, such as deployment, aiming, and spray mode switching, from inside the helicopter cabin or a secure ground command point via the remote controller 500. The operator can also receive real-time video feeds from the camera and send them to the computer along with status data to adjust the spray angle.

[0155] Manual operation mode in complex electromagnetic environments: The fire monitor system is equipped with an ergonomic local control box and control handle. In complex electromagnetic environments where wireless signal transmission is not possible, firefighters and observers can perform intuitive on-site operation and command when needed, ensuring the fire extinguishing efficiency and reliability of the machine in complex electromagnetic environments.

[0156] In some examples, at least a portion of the fire monitor assembly 300 is made of aluminum or magnesium alloy.

[0157] Aluminum and magnesium alloys have low density and high strength. While ensuring that the structural strength of the device meets the requirements for water supply and pressurization, they can significantly reduce the overall weight, lighten the load on the aircraft 600, improve the effective payload utilization rate of the aircraft 600, extend the endurance of the aircraft 600, and also facilitate manual transfer operations by reducing the handling load, further adapting to the lightweight requirements of high-altitude loading and manual transfer. At the same time, aluminum and magnesium alloys also have good corrosion resistance, which can withstand the erosion of water during firefighting and the high temperature environment of the fire scene, extending the service life of the device and reducing maintenance costs.

[0158] The above structure enables the intelligent fire monitor device for high-altitude fire extinguishing to achieve overall system lightweighting: Pump body 310: Made of cast aluminum alloy or lighter titanium alloy, which significantly reduces weight while ensuring pressure resistance. Since helicopters or drones have limited payload capacity, it is necessary to reduce the weight of the machine as much as possible to ensure the endurance of the drone or helicopter. At the same time, the lighter weight of the machine can also reduce the difficulty of assembly or disassembly and improve work efficiency.

[0159] 330 Water Outlet Pipe Telescopic Bracket: The main load-bearing frame is made of high-strength and heat-resistant aluminum alloy or magnesium alloy, ensuring that the strength of the load-bearing frame will not be affected when the front frame is close to the fire, reducing the shaking when the water jet is sprayed for fire extinguishing, and improving the positioning accuracy to ensure high-efficiency fire extinguishing work.

[0160] The 360-degree power generation unit features an all-aluminum alloy cylinder block and cylinder head, with some non-load-bearing components made of magnesium alloy. It is designed to be compact, reducing space occupation and weight while ensuring sufficient power.

[0161] Furthermore, the high-altitude fire-fighting intelligent fire monitor device disclosed herein has been designed with a series of stringent high-performance performance requirements to ensure its superior effectiveness in responding to complex high-altitude fires. Specifically, when the device operates in its core centralized pressurized columnar water discharge mode, its key performance parameter—head (or pressure head)—can reach or exceed 30 meters. This standardized high head setting aims to ensure that the water flow can be powerfully propelled to a sufficient height and distance to effectively cover and combat high-altitude fire sources. Moreover, this basic head is not a fixed upper limit but can be customized and enhanced according to more stringent or specific fire-fighting needs in actual application scenarios to achieve greater coverage and spraying capabilities.

[0162] Meanwhile, the flow rate of this intelligent fire monitor also reflects a high degree of flexibility and customer orientation. Its flow rate specifications are not fixed but can be customized and adjusted according to different customers' specific usage scenarios, water supply conditions, and fire extinguishing intensity requirements. This customizable flow rate ensures that the device can accurately match the different water output needs in various actual high-altitude fire extinguishing scenarios, from large warehouse spaces to the exterior walls of high-rise buildings.

[0163] By setting an expandable high lift of no less than 30 meters and a flexible flow rate that can be fully customized according to customer requirements, the high-altitude fire extinguishing intelligent fire monitor device disclosed herein fundamentally ensures that it can achieve stable, powerful and targeted high-altitude spraying, thereby meeting the core requirements of modern fire fighting for efficient and accurate high-altitude fire suppression.
