Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fire protection equipment technology, specifically to a new type of fire monitor with self-protection function. Background Technology

[0002] Fire monitors are fire extinguishing devices that use water as a medium to extinguish fires from a distance. They are suitable for petrochemical plants, tank farms, warehouses, ports, and other locations, and are ideal vehicle-mounted fire monitors for fire trucks. Fire monitors are classified into: automatic scanning high-altitude water monitors, solid manual fire monitors, automatic homing fire monitors, and electrically controlled fire monitors.

[0003] Current fire monitors lack self-protection capabilities, which leads to blockages caused by the freezing of fire-fighting water or chemicals in high-altitude and low-temperature regions. This severely affects the normal use of fire monitors. Furthermore, existing fire monitors cannot be restricted in their movement during use, making them unstable and prone to shaking.

[0004] A search using the keyword "a new type of fire monitor" yielded 5 patents: CN202322424483.5, "A new type of fire monitor, mainly composed of a monitor body, a fixing plate, a water outlet, a connecting pipe, and a water head, is equipped with three water heads, allowing connection to multiple pipes for simultaneous multi-directional fire extinguishing, thus improving the practicality of the monitor body. During fire extinguishing, shock-absorbing springs and shock absorbers enhance the monitor body's shock resistance and stability during use. However, it lacks insulation, and the monitor may become clogged in cold regions"; CN20 2022573621.2 A new type of fire monitor, mainly composed of an inlet pipe, a three-way assembly, a monitor head assembly, and a cam push rod mechanism. This device replaces the adjusting electric push rod used to pull the monitor head sliding sleeve with a cam push rod mechanism, reducing the spray force at close range and achieving fully automatic close-range spray of water in a mist shape and long-range spray of water in a column shape. However, it lacks heat preservation function and may experience clogging in cold regions; CN201821889098.0 A new type of fire monitor fire source locator, including a fire monitor body and an infrared elevation... The positioning device consists of an infrared horizontal positioning device, a main control circuit board, a housing, a cannon tube, and a camera. It is easy to install, saves installation space for fire monitors, reduces the number of wires, and achieves better positioning accuracy, thus ensuring reliable firefighting operations. However, it lacks insulation, which may cause blockages in cold regions. CN201710015200.8 describes a new type of fire monitor, whose main structure includes a bracket, a cannon head, a cannon tube, a water supply valve, a drain valve, and an electric heating rod. This structure effectively prevents or removes residual water from the cannon tube, greatly ensuring the performance of the fire monitor. However, this device lacks a bottom support structure, which cannot guarantee the stability of the fire monitor. CN201020541769.1 describes a new type of fire monitor nozzle. The nozzle's DC / spray conversion mechanism includes a ring-shaped permanent magnet core, a nozzle outer sleeve, and a drive coil. Powered by DC electricity, it can flexibly achieve DC / spray conversion of the nozzle, solving the problem of jamming in currently widely used nozzle DC / spray conversion. However, this device lacks insulation, which may cause blockages in cold regions. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a new type of fire monitor with self-protection function, so as to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology in lacking heat preservation function and being unable to guarantee the stability of the fire monitor.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A fire monitor with self-protection function includes a base structure, which includes a movable base. The upper surface of the movable base has a recessed mounting groove, into which a mounting sleeve is embedded. A support mechanism is provided between the mounting sleeve and the recessed mounting groove. The power output end of the support mechanism is located at the bottom of the movable base. A rotating seat is rotatably connected to the outer side of the mounting sleeve and is mounted on the upper surface of the movable base. A fire extinguishing agent storage tank is mounted on the top of the rotating seat, and an insulation component is provided on the outer side of the fire extinguishing agent storage tank. A drive pump is installed inside the fire extinguishing agent storage tank, and the power output end of the drive pump is connected to an insulation hose. The output end of the insulation hose passes through the top of the fire extinguishing agent storage tank and is connected to a monitor barrel. A water cannon pressurization pump is installed inside the monitor barrel, and the output end of the insulation hose is connected to the water cannon pressurization pump. A rotating base is fixedly mounted on the outer side of the monitor barrel and is fixedly mounted on the top of the fire extinguishing agent storage tank. A cannon head is mounted on one side of the monitor barrel, and a heating component is also provided near the outer side of the cannon head. A handle is mounted on the other side of the monitor barrel.

[0008] Furthermore, the support mechanism includes a drive motor installed on the top of the inner side of the mounting sleeve. The power output end of the drive motor is connected to a lead screw, and a bearing is installed at the bottom of the lead screw. The bearing is located at the bottom of the concave mounting groove. Nuts are provided on both sides of the lead screw, and each nut is connected to a drive plate. One end of a plurality of support rods is connected to the drive plate, and the other end of the support rods is connected to the movable seat and extends through the movable seat to the outside of the movable seat.

[0009] Furthermore, the bottom of the mobile seat is provided with an anti-slip support plate and is connected to a support rod that runs through the mobile seat.

[0010] Furthermore, multiple guide rods are slidably connected to the drive plate, with one end of each guide rod connected to the bottom of the recessed mounting groove and the other end connected to the top of the inner side of the mounting sleeve.

[0011] Furthermore, the insulation component includes an insulation jacket disposed outside the fire extinguishing agent storage tank, an insulation cavity being provided between the insulation jacket and the fire extinguishing agent storage tank, and multiple insulation coils being installed inside the insulation cavity.

[0012] Furthermore, the heating assembly includes a heat-insulating jacket disposed on the outside of the barrel, a heating cavity provided between the heat-insulating jacket and the barrel, and multiple heating coils installed in the heating cavity.

[0013] Furthermore, the upper surface of the movable seat is provided with guide grooves on both sides, and a guide slider is slidably disposed in the guide grooves. The upper surface of the guide slider is connected to the bottom of the rotating seat.

[0014] Furthermore, the cross-section of the mounting sleeve has an inverted U-shaped structure and is embedded in the concave mounting groove.

[0015] Furthermore, the bottom of the extinguishing agent storage tank is provided with a delivery pipe, and the outlet of the delivery pipe extends to the rotating seat and is fixed to one side of the rotating seat.

[0016] Furthermore, movable components are installed at all four corners of the lower surface of the movable seat.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0018] This utility model provides a fire monitor with a self-protection function. By setting up heating and insulation components, when ice forms in the barrel, nozzle, or extinguishing agent storage tank, the heating and insulation components can heat and keep the water monitor warm, allowing it to be used normally. Through the support mechanism, the water monitor can contact the ground and increase friction during use, restricting the movement of the fire monitor and ensuring its stability, thereby reducing the labor intensity of firefighters.

[0019] Specifically, the insulation component includes an insulation jacket installed on the outside of the extinguishing agent storage tank, an insulation cavity between the insulation jacket and the extinguishing agent storage tank, and several insulation coils installed in the insulation cavity. In high-altitude and low-temperature areas or when the ambient temperature is too low, the insulation coils are activated to insulate the extinguishing agent storage tank, preventing the extinguishing agent in the storage tank from freezing due to low temperature, and ensuring normal use even in cold conditions.

[0020] Specifically, the heating assembly includes a heat-insulating jacket installed on the barrel, with a heating chamber between the jacket and the barrel, and several heating coils installed inside the heating chamber. When the extinguishing agent stored in the barrel and head for a long time solidifies and freezes due to low temperature, the heating coils are activated to heat the barrel. While the heating coils are heating the barrel, the heat can also be transferred to the head, thereby melting the ice inside the barrel and head and ensuring that the barrel and head can be used normally under cold conditions.

[0027] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this utility model are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the utility model described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a fire monitor with self-protection function includes a base structure, which includes a mobile base 1. Movable components 2 are installed at the four corners of the lower surface of the mobile base 1. A mounting sleeve 4 is embedded in a recessed mounting groove 3. The cross-section of the mounting sleeve 4 is an inverted U-shape embedded within the recessed mounting groove 3, creating a certain space between the mounting sleeve 4 and the recessed mounting groove 3. A support mechanism 5 is provided, with its power output end located at the bottom of the mobile base 1. The support mechanism 5 provides support for the mobile base 1.

[0030] A rotating seat 6 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the mounting sleeve 4, and the rotating seat 6 is mounted on the upper surface of the mobile base 1. The diameter of the rotating seat 6 is larger than the diameter of the mounting sleeve 4. A fire extinguishing agent storage tank 7 is mounted on the top of the rotating seat 6. An insulation component 8 is provided on the outer side of the fire extinguishing agent storage tank 7. The insulation component 8 provides insulation for the fire extinguishing agent inside the fire extinguishing agent storage tank 7 to prevent freezing due to low temperature. A delivery pipe 0 is provided at the bottom of the fire extinguishing agent storage tank 7, and the outlet of the delivery pipe 0 extends to the rotating seat 6 and is fixed to one side of the rotating seat 6.

[0031] A drive pump 10 is installed inside the fire extinguishing agent storage tank 7. The drive pump 10 is located at the bottom inside the fire extinguishing agent storage tank 7. The power output end of the drive pump 10 is connected to an insulated hose 11. The output end of the insulated hose 11 passes through the top of the fire extinguishing agent storage tank 7 and is connected to a cannon barrel 12. A water cannon pressurization pump 13 is installed inside the cannon barrel 12. The output end of the insulated hose 11 is connected to the water cannon pressurization pump 13. A rotating base 14 is fixedly installed on the outside of the cannon barrel 12 and is fixedly installed on the top of the fire extinguishing agent storage tank 7. A cannon head 15 is installed on one side of the cannon barrel 12, and a heating component 16 is also provided on the outside of the cannon head 15. A handle 17 is installed on the other side of the cannon barrel 12.

[0032] In this embodiment, during use, the fire monitor is first moved to the operating position by the moving component 2 at the bottom of the mobile seat 1. Then, the support mechanism 5 is activated to support the mobile seat 1, restricting its movement and making it more stable and less prone to shaking during subsequent use. Afterward, the fire extinguishing agent in the fire extinguishing agent storage tank 7 is input into the insulated hose 11 by the drive pump 10, and then transported to the cannon barrel 12 by the insulated hose 11. After being pressurized by the water cannon pressurization pump 13, it is sprayed out from the nozzle 15 to perform fire extinguishing work. During fire extinguishing, the cannon barrel 12 can be rotated on the rotating base 14 by pressing or lifting the handle 17, thereby changing the spray angle of the nozzle 15. At the same time, the handle 17 can also be rotated left and right, so that the handle 17 drives the cannon barrel 12, the cannon barrel 12 drives the rotating base 14, the rotating base 14 drives the fire extinguishing agent storage tank 7, and the fire extinguishing agent storage tank 7 drives the rotating seat 6 to rotate on the mobile seat 1, further increasing the fire extinguishing range.

[0033] Before use, the heat insulation component 8 keeps the extinguishing agent in the extinguishing agent storage tank 7 warm to prevent freezing due to low temperature. The heating component 16 heats the cannon barrel 12 and transfers the heat to the cannon head 15, thereby melting the ice inside the cannon barrel 12 and the cannon head 15, so that the water cannon can be used stably.

[0034] Example 2

[0035] like Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, this embodiment further describes the support mechanism 5 based on embodiment 1. The support mechanism 5 includes a drive motor 18 installed on the top of the inner side of the mounting sleeve 4. The power output end of the drive motor 18 is connected to a lead screw 19. A bearing 20 is installed at the bottom of the lead screw 19. The bearing 20 is located at the bottom of the concave mounting groove 3. Nuts 21 are provided on both sides of the lead screw 19. Each nut 21 is connected to a drive plate 22. One end of a plurality of support rods 23 is connected to the drive plate 22, and the other end of the support rods 23 is connected to the movable seat 1 and extends through the movable seat 1 to the outside of the movable seat 1.

[0036] In some preferred embodiments of this utility model, the bottom of the movable seat 1 is provided with an anti-slip support plate 24 and is connected to the support rod 23 that passes through the movable seat 1.

[0037] In some preferred embodiments of this utility model, a plurality of guide rods 25 are slidably connected to the drive plate 22. One end of the guide rod 25 is connected to the bottom of the recessed mounting groove 3, and the other end is connected to the top of the inner side of the mounting sleeve 4.

[0038] In this embodiment, during use, the drive motor 18 is started, causing the lead screw 19 to rotate along the bearing 20. This causes the lead screw 19 to drive the nut 21, which in turn drives the drive plate 22 to move downwards. Simultaneously, the drive plate 22 slides vertically along the guide rod 25, pushing the support rod 23. The support rod 23 pushes the anti-slip support plate 24 towards the ground, increasing friction upon contact with the ground. This restricts the movement of the fire monitor during use, ensuring its stability and preventing swaying.

[0039] Example 3

[0040] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment further describes the insulation component 8 based on embodiment 1. The insulation component 8 includes an insulation jacket 28 disposed outside the fire extinguishing agent storage tank 7. An insulation cavity 29 is provided between the insulation jacket 28 and the fire extinguishing agent storage tank 7. A plurality of insulation coils 30 are installed in the insulation cavity 29.

[0041] In this embodiment, in cold and frigid regions or when the ambient temperature is too low, the heat preservation coil 30 is activated to keep the fire extinguishing agent storage tank 7 warm, preventing the fire extinguishing agent in the fire extinguishing agent storage tank 7 from freezing due to low temperature, and ensuring normal use even in cold conditions.

[0042] Example 4

[0043] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, this embodiment further describes the heating component 16 based on embodiment 1. The heating component 16 includes a heat insulation jacket 31 disposed on the barrel 12, a heating cavity 32 is provided between the heat insulation jacket 31 and the barrel 12, and a plurality of heating coils 33 are installed in the heating cavity 32.

[0044] In this embodiment, when the extinguishing agent stored in the barrel 12 and the cannon head 15 for a long time solidifies and freezes due to low temperature, the heating coil 33 is activated to heat the barrel 12. When the heating coil 33 heats the barrel 12, its heat can also be transferred to the cannon head 15, thereby melting the ice in the barrel 12 and the cannon head 15 and ensuring that the barrel 12 and the cannon head 15 can be used normally under cold conditions.

[0045] Example 5

[0046] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment adds the following structure based on embodiment 1: the top of the movable seat 1 is also provided with a guide groove 26, and a guide slider 27 is slidably arranged in the guide groove 26. The guide slider 27 is installed at the bottom of the rotating seat 6.

[0047] In this embodiment, when the rotating seat 6 rotates, the rotating seat 6 will drive the bottom guide slider 27 to slide along the guide groove 26, so that the rotating seat 6 can perform stable guided rotation and ensure the smoothness of the fire monitor's turning direction.

[0048] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this utility model should still be covered by the claims of this utility model.
