[0037] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments.
[0038] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The nozzle assembly according to the embodiment of the first aspect of the present utility model is described. The nozzle assembly is used for a fire water monitor. The nozzle assembly is described below using a specific example.
[0039] Reference Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the nozzle assembly includes an inner tube 100 , an outer tube 200 , a first shell 300 , a second shell 400 , a guide plate 500 , and a driving device 600 .
[0040] The inner tube 100 is used to connect to the nozzle 10 of the fire monitor, and a spray hole 110 is provided at the front end of the inner tube 100 .
[0041] The outer tube 200 is connected to the inner tube 100 , and a through hole 210 is provided at the front end of the outer tube 200 . The through hole 210 is located in front of the spray hole 110 , so that the nozzle 10 of the fire water monitor can spray water from the spray hole 110 through the through hole 210 .
[0042] The first shell 300 is hinged to the top of the outer tube 200 and rotates around an axis extending in the left-right direction. The second shell 400 is hinged to the bottom of the outer tube 200 and rotates around an axis extending in the left-right direction.
[0043] The drive mechanism 600 connects the first housing 300 and the second housing 400. The drive mechanism 600 can drive the first housing 300 and the second housing 400 to rotate and close or open the first housing 300 and the second housing 400. The first housing 300 and the second housing 400 close in front of the through hole 210. When the first housing 300 and the second housing 400 open, they avoid the front of the through hole 210.
[0044] There are many types of drive devices 600. For example, the first housing 300 is connected to a driving gear, and the second housing 400 is connected to a driven gear. The driving gear and the driven gear mesh together to make the first housing 300 and the second housing 400 move in a coordinated manner. Then, a cylinder pulls the first housing 300 or the second housing 400 to rotate, thereby opening or closing the first housing 300 and the second housing 400.
[0045] Alternatively, two cylinders are provided to connect the first shell 300 and the second shell 400 respectively. The two cylinders extend simultaneously to close the second shell 400 and the first shell 300, and retract simultaneously to open the second shell 400 and the first shell 300.
[0046] Alternatively, two rotating motors are provided and connected to the first shell 300 and the second shell 400 respectively, and the two rotating motors are used to respectively drive the second shell 400 and the first shell 300 to rotate, thereby realizing the opening or closing of the second shell 400 and the first shell 300.
[0047] The deflector 500 is located on the top of the first housing 300 or the top of the second housing 400. When the first housing 300 and the second housing 400 are closed, the deflector 500 moves in front of the through-hole 210, allowing the water jets ejected from the through-hole 210 to strike the deflector 500 and form a mist. When the first housing 300 and the second housing 400 are opened, the deflector 500 moves away from the front of the through-hole 210, allowing the water jets to be ejected from the through-hole 210.
[0048] The inner tube 100 is used to connect the nozzle 10 of the fire water monitor. The through hole 210 of the outer tube 200 is located in front of the spray hole 110 of the inner tube 100. The driving device 600 drives the first shell 300 and the second shell 400 to close together, driving the guide plate 500 to move in front of the through hole 210. The water column sprayed from the spray hole 110 hits the guide plate 500, causing the water column to be dispersed and form water mist, so that the columnar spray is switched to mist spray.
[0049] The driving device 600 drives the first shell 300 and the second shell 400 to open so that the guide plate 500 avoids the position facing the through hole 210, so that the water column sprayed from the spray hole 110 is sprayed directly, and the mist spray is switched to columnar spray.
[0050] It can quickly switch between columnar spray and mist spray, making the spray state switching of the fire water monitor more convenient and easy to operate.
[0051] In some embodiments, reference Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the nozzle assembly also includes a spoiler block 700, which is arranged at the bottom of the first shell 300 or the top of the second shell 400. The spoiler block 700 is arranged above or below the axis of the through hole 210. When the first shell 300 and the second shell 400 are closed, the spoiler block 700 moves to the front of the nozzle 110.
[0052] When the first shell 300 and the second shell 400 are closed, the spoiler block 700 moves in front of the nozzle 110, so that the water column sprayed from the nozzle 110 directly impacts the spoiler block 700 and splashes onto the guide plate 500, so that the water column sprayed from the nozzle 110 splashes between the spoiler block 700 and the guide plate 500 to form more water mist, producing a better mist spray effect.
[0053] In some embodiments, reference Figures 1 to 4 As shown, there are four guide plates 500, two of which are arranged at the bottom of the first shell 300, and the other two guide plates 500 are arranged at the top of the second shell 400. When the first shell 300 and the second shell 400 are closed, all the guide plates 500 are located on the left and right sides of the spoiler 700.
[0054] A plurality of guide plates 500 are arranged at the bottom of the first shell 300 and the top of the second shell 400. When the water column sprayed from the nozzle 110 hits the spoiler block 700, the multiple guide plates 500 on both sides form a barrier to the water column splashed by the spoiler block 700, which helps to form a continuously splashing water column in the space between the guide plate 500 and the spoiler block 700, thereby generating more water mist and forming a better atomization effect.
[0055] In some embodiments, the guide plate 500 extends from rear to front, and the guide plate 500 gradually moves away from the spoiler 700 from rear to front.
[0056] When the first shell 300 and the second shell 400 are closed, the multiple guide plates 500 form a conical hole structure with a smaller rear portion and a larger front portion, which helps the formed water mist to spread outward and improve the mist spraying effect.
[0057] In some embodiments, the spoiler 700 protrudes toward the axis of the spray hole 110 , and the protruding distance gradually increases from the back to the front, and the protruding distance of the spoiler 700 gradually decreases from the middle to the left and right sides.
[0058] When the first shell 300 and the second shell 400 are closed, the water column sprayed from the spray hole 110 is divided into two water columns by the gradually inclined spoiler block 700 and impacts the guide plates 500 on both sides, which helps to reduce the obstruction of the water column by the spoiler block 700 and helps to increase the spray distance of the sprayed water mist.
[0059] In some embodiments, there are two spoiler blocks 700, which are respectively arranged at the bottom of the first shell 300 and the top of the second shell 400, and the two guide plates 500 are located on the left and right sides of the spoiler blocks 700, and the bottom wall of the first shell 300 gradually tilts downward from back to front, and the top wall of the second shell 400 gradually tilts upward from back to front.
[0060] When the first shell 300 and the second shell 400 are closed, the bottom wall of the first shell 300 and the top wall of the second shell 400 form a channel that gradually decreases from back to front, which helps to further compress the channel enclosed between the spoiler 700 and the guide plate 500, and further enhance the water mist formation effect.
[0061] In some embodiments, an air inlet hole 220 is set at the rear end and outer side wall of the outer tube 200, and the outer tube 200 is sleeved on the outside of the inner tube 100, and an air inlet channel 230 is formed between the inner side wall of the outer tube 200 and the outer side wall of the inner tube 100.
[0062] When the first shell 300 and the second shell 400 are closed, a water column is sprayed out from the through hole 210 of the outer tube 200 to form water mist in the first shell 300 and the second shell 400. Since the sprayed water column forms a low pressure in front of the through hole 210, the external air flows from the air inlet hole 220 of the outer tube 200 through the air inlet channel 230 to the front of the through hole 210, which helps to mix the air and the water mist and produce an atomization effect with better diffusion effect.
[0063] In some embodiments, the diameter of the nozzle hole 110 gradually decreases from the back to the front.
[0064] The nozzle holes 110 with gradually decreasing apertures form a converging effect on the water column, so that the water column flow rate increases and impacts the guide plate 500, thereby improving the atomization effect and also increasing the distance of the mist spray and column spray.
[0065] In some embodiments, the driving device 600 includes a transmission mechanism 610 and a driving mechanism 620 .
[0066] The transmission mechanism 610 includes a first gear and a second gear. The first gear is connected to the first shell 300, and the rotating shaft of the first gear coincides with the rotating shaft of the first shell 300. The second gear is connected to the second shell 400, and the rotating shaft of the second gear coincides with the rotating shaft of the second shell 400. The first gear and the second gear are engaged to link the first shell 300 and the second shell 400.
[0067] The driving mechanism 620 is an electric push rod. The fixed end of the driving mechanism 620 is hinged to the outer wall of the outer tube 200, and the movable end of the driving mechanism 620 is hinged to the outer wall of the first shell 300. The first shell 300 is driven to rotate by the telescopic action of the driving mechanism 620. After the first shell 300 rotates, it drives the second shell 400 through the transmission mechanism 610.
[0068] Reference Figure 5 The fire-fighting water monitor according to the second embodiment of the present invention is described, which includes the nozzle assembly as described above, and the fire-fighting water monitor is further provided with a nozzle 10.
[0069] The nozzle 10 of the fire water monitor is connected to the inner tube 100, and the through hole 210 of the outer tube 200 is located in front of the spray hole 110 of the inner tube 100. The driving device 600 drives the first shell 300 and the second shell 400 to close together, driving the guide plate 500 to move in front of the through hole 210. The water column sprayed from the spray hole 110 hits the guide plate 500, so that the water column is dispersed and forms water mist, so that the columnar spray is switched to mist spray.
[0070] The driving device 600 drives the first shell 300 and the second shell 400 to open so that the guide plate 500 avoids the position facing the through hole 210, so that the water column sprayed from the spray hole 110 is sprayed directly, and the mist spray is switched to columnar spray.
[0071] It can quickly switch between columnar spray and mist spray, making the spray state switching of the fire water monitor more convenient and easy to operate.
[0072] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made within the knowledge of ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
