Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of fire dampers, in particular to an expandable fire damper. Background Art

[0002] Fire dampers play a crucial role in the fire protection system, and their main functions are reflected in the following aspects:

[0003] Blocking the spread of fire: When a fire occurs, the fire damper can quickly respond and automatically close, thus effectively blocking the spread of flames and high-temperature smoke through the ventilation duct to other non-fire areas. This helps to control the fire, prevent the fire from expanding, and reduce the losses caused by the fire. Protecting personnel safety: The timely closing of the fire damper can prevent toxic smoke and high-temperature air from entering the evacuation passage or safe shelter area of personnel, creating favorable conditions for personnel evacuation and rescue work, and protecting the lives of personnel. Cooperating with the smoke exhaust system: In a fire, the function of the smoke exhaust system is to timely exhaust the smoke in the room to reduce the impact of smoke on personnel. The fire damper is usually used in cooperation with the smoke exhaust system. When the smoke exhaust system is working, the fire damper remains open to ensure the smooth exhaust of smoke; while when the fire spreads to the vicinity of the smoke exhaust duct, the fire damper automatically closes to prevent the fire from further spreading through the smoke exhaust duct. Fire separation: Inside a building, the fire damper can be used as a means of fire separation. By reasonably setting the fire damper, the building can be divided into different fire areas. Once a fire occurs in a certain area, the closing of the fire damper can prevent the fire from spreading to other areas, thus protecting the safety of the entire building. Improving the overall fire resistance performance of the building: As an important part of the fire protection system, the existence and effective operation of the fire damper can significantly improve the overall fire resistance performance of the building. By reasonably designing and installing the fire damper, a more secure and reliable fire protection system can be constructed, providing strong guarantee for the fire safety of the building.

[0029] As Figure 2 , 3 shown, the expansion mechanism includes an expansion shaft 31 coaxially arranged with the sleeve 1. One end of the expansion shaft 31 is installed on the bracket 2. A plurality of expansion rods 33 are installed around the axis at the top end of the expansion shaft 31 close to the bracket 2. Expansion pages 32 made of fireproof materials are installed between every two of the expansion rods 33. The expansion pages 32 can expand and contract along with the expansion and contraction of the expansion rods 33;

[0030] As Figure 3 , 4As shown, the spreading shaft 31 is provided with an automatic spreading device. The automatic spreading device includes a movable seat 42 movably sleeved on the spreading shaft 31 at the end far from the bracket 2. A tension spring 35 is arranged between the movable seat 42 and the end of the spreading shaft 31 close to the bracket 2. The tension spring 35 pulls the movable seat 42 towards the side of the bracket 2. It further includes four driven rods 51 arranged at equal intervals and circumferentially around and movably connected to one end of the movable seat 42. A sleeve 52 capable of slidingly sleeving on the spreading rod 33 is arranged at the other end of the driven rod 51. The sleeve 52 is rotatably connected to the driven rod 51. Preferably, an installation base is arranged at the connection between the spreading shaft 31 and the bracket 2. The installation base is cylindrical and coaxial with the sleeve 1. Preferably, when the spreading rods 33 are fully spread, several spreading rods 33 are all in the same cross-section perpendicular to the axis of the sleeve 1, and a limiting protrusion 411 for preventing the spreading rods 33 from over-spreading is arranged at the rotational connection between the spreading rods 33 and the installation base. When the spreading page 32 spreads, the limiting protrusion 41 abuts against the hinge of the spreading page 32 to prevent the spreading page 32 from being overly bent when the tension spring is tightened. Preferably, four spreading rods 33 are arranged and are rotatably installed at equal intervals on the end face of the installation seat 41 far from the bracket 2. The rotational surface is the surface formed by the installation position and the axis of the sleeve 1. Preferably, the spreading page 32 is composed of several metal leaflets hinged together. A group of spreading pages 32 is arranged between two adjacent spreading rods 33. After the spreading pages 32 are fully spread, the gaps between the two adjacent spreading rods 33 and the pipe wall can be filled.

[0031] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, a thermosensitive triggering device that is only triggered at high temperatures is arranged on the side of the spreading shaft 31 far from the bracket 2.

Preferably, the thermosensitive triggering device includes a fixing hole arranged at the end of the spreading shaft 31. A melting plug 34 is arranged in the fixing hole. The melting plug is made of an easily fusible alloy, and the melting point can be between 140 degrees Celsius and 170 degrees Celsius. The temperature of fire smoke is generally between 600 - 800 degrees. Therefore, this device is easily triggered when a disaster occurs. The melting plug 34 clamps the movable seat 42 at the end of the spreading shaft 31.

[0032] The principle and usage method of this device are as follows:

[0033] Before installing this expandable fire damper, first confirm that the installed valve is in an untriggered state. Sleeve the sleeve 1 on the preset exhaust duct. After a disaster occurs, the fire damper will not close immediately and will continue to allow air to flow. Once the fire spreads to the fire damper in the duct, the high temperature brought by the fire will melt the melting plug 34 of this expandable fire damper. The movable seat 42 fixed before the plug is pulled towards the mounting seat 41 under the action of the tension spring 35. The movable seat 42 drives the driven rod 51 to move. The sleeve 52 provided on the driven rod 51 drives the expansion rod 33 to expand. The expansion of the expansion rod 33 will drive the expansion page 32 hinged on the expansion rod 33. As Figure 5 shown, after the expansion page 32 expands, it can close the duct and play the role of blocking the spread of fire.
