[0002] Internet of Things (IoT) based data center fire protection systems utilize modern information technologies such as IoT, wireless sensing, cloud computing, and big data to monitor, predict, respond to, and manage data centers in real time, thereby improving the fire safety level and emergency response capabilities of data centers.

[0003] As disclosed in patent announcement CN218458513U, a data center fire protection system based on the Internet of Things (IoT) includes a fire box. The fire box has an inspection door hinged to its front. A drive mechanism is located at the bottom of the fire box, and a spray mechanism is located at the top of the drive mechanism. The drive mechanism includes a motor, a bevel gear, a first bevel gear rod, a second bevel gear rod, and an adjusting screw. The motor is fixedly connected to the bottom center of the working chamber. In the event of a fire in the data center, this IoT-based data center fire protection system remotely controls the motor and water pump. When the motor is operating, it drives the spray nozzles to protrude from a circular groove. When the water pump is operating, it draws water from a storage tank and sprays the water near the fire box through the spray nozzles, thereby carrying out fire extinguishing operations.

[0004] The aforementioned fire protection systems also have a water spraying function, which can extinguish fires or reduce the spread of fires. However, during the water spraying process, these systems often have a small spraying range and a limited fire extinguishing range, resulting in poor fire extinguishing effects and thus failing to guarantee the stability and safety of the data center's operation. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a data center fire protection system based on the Internet of Things to solve the technical problem of poor fire extinguishing effect in existing fire protection systems.

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] An Internet of Things (IoT) based data center fire protection system includes a protective enclosure, with an alarm and smoke detector installed on the outside of the enclosure, and further includes:

[0008] A rotating assembly includes a hollow column, a drive assembly, and hinge plates. The hollow column has vertically distributed discs and driven gears on its exterior. The hollow column is rotatably connected to a protective box via the discs. The driven gears cooperate with the drive assembly. Two hinge plates are provided, both located on either side of the hollow column. One end of each hinge plate is rotatably connected to the hollow column. A nozzle is installed at the bottom of each hinge plate, and the nozzle is also equipped with a water supply structure. A controller for controlling each component is installed inside the protective box.

[0009] An angle adjustment structure is provided, which is configured between the hollow column and the corresponding hinge plate.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the drive assembly includes a drive gear and a motor, a mounting bracket is provided on the side of the motor, the motor is fixedly connected to the protective box through the mounting bracket, the output end of the motor is connected to the drive gear, and the drive gear meshes with the driven gear.

[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the water supply structure includes a water storage tank and a bend pipe. The water storage tank is installed inside the protective box. A water pump is installed at the bottom of the water storage tank. A fixing sleeve is fixedly connected to the bottom of the water pump. One end of the bend pipe is rotatably connected inside the fixing sleeve. The other end of the bend pipe passes through the protective box and is connected to two hoses. The end of the hose away from the bend pipe is connected to the corresponding nozzle.

[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the angle adjustment structure includes a lifting cylinder and a lifting rod. The lifting cylinder is fixedly connected inside the hollow column. The driving end of the hollow column is connected to the middle position of the lifting rod. Both sides of the hollow column have strip-shaped through holes. Both ends of the lifting rod pass through the strip-shaped through holes and are rotatably connected to a linkage rod. The end of the linkage rod away from the lifting rod is rotatably connected to the top of the corresponding hinge plate.

[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the bent tube passes through the driven gear and the disk, and is fixedly connected to the disk.

[0014] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the fixed sleeve and the bent pipe are rotatably connected at a position coaxially located above the hollow column.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0016] The drive assembly of this utility model drives the hollow column and the two nozzles to rotate as a whole. The lifting cylinder in the angle adjustment structure reciprocates and extends, causing the lifting rod to move up and down. In turn, the linkage rod reciprocates up and down, causing the hinge plate to flip, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the two nozzles. Thus, the two nozzles rotate in coordination with the adjustment of the tilt angle, thereby expanding the water spray range and achieving the purpose of a wide water spray range, thereby improving the fire extinguishing effect.

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] like Figures 1-5 As shown, a data center fire protection system based on the Internet of Things includes a protective box 1 made of fireproof material. An alarm 5 and a smoke detector 6 are installed on the outside of the protective box 1. A water supply structure is also installed inside the protective box 1. It also includes a rotating component and an angle adjustment structure.

[0026] The rotating assembly includes a hollow column 3, a drive assembly for driving the hollow column 3 to rotate, and hinge plates 45. A disc 31 and a driven gear 32 are vertically fixedly distributed on the outside of the hollow column 3. Both the disc 31 and the driven gear 32 are horizontally coaxially arranged on the outside of the hollow column 3. The hollow column 3 is rotatably connected to the bottom plate of the protective box 1 via the disc 31, which can rotate synchronously with the hollow column 3. The driven gear 32 cooperates with the drive assembly, which can drive the driven gear 32 to rotate. Two hinge plates 45 are provided, located on opposite sides of the hollow column 3. One end of each component near the hollow column 3 is rotatably connected to the hollow column 3 via a pivot. Each hinge plate 45 has a nozzle 24 installed at its bottom. Flipping the hinge plate 45 away from the hollow column 3 can drive the nozzle 24 to rotate around the pivot. The water supply structure is used to provide water for fire extinguishing to the nozzle 24. The protective box 1 is equipped with a controller 7 that controls each component. The controller 7 is electrically connected to the alarm 5 and the smoke detector 6. The smoke detector 6 is used to measure the smoke inside the data center. The alarm 5 is used to sound an alarm after receiving the electrical signal sent by the controller 7.

[0027] An angle adjustment structure is set between the hollow column 3 and the corresponding hinge plate 45. The angle adjustment structure can drive the two hinge plates 45 to rotate, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the nozzle 24.

[0028] In some specific implementation plans, such as Figure 3 As shown, in order to facilitate the rotation of the hollow column 3, the drive assembly includes a drive gear 33 and a motor 34. A mounting bracket is provided on the side of the motor 34, and the motor 34 is fixedly connected to the protective box 1 through the mounting bracket. The output end of the motor 34 is connected to the drive gear 33, and the drive gear 33 meshes with the driven gear 32. The motor 34 is electrically connected to the controller 7. When the motor 34 is started, the output shaft of the motor 34 drives the drive gear 33 to rotate synchronously, and the driven gear 32 meshing with the motor 34 drives the hollow column 3 to rotate in the opposite direction.

[0029] In some specific implementation plans, such as Figure 3 or Figure 5As shown, to facilitate the spraying of water from the water tank 2 to the nozzle 24, the water supply structure includes the water tank 2 and the bend 23. The water tank 2 is fixedly installed inside the protective box 1. A water pump 21 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the water tank 2. The water pump 21 is electrically connected to the controller 7. A fixing sleeve 22 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the water pump 21. One end of the bend 23 is rotatably connected to the inside of the fixing sleeve 22. The other end of the bend 23 passes through the disc 31 and is fixedly connected to the disc 31. Two hoses 25 are connected to the end of the bend 23. The end of the hose 25 away from the bend 23 is connected to the corresponding nozzle 24. When the water pump 21 is started, it draws water from the inside of the water tank 2 into the inside of the bend 23. The water flows along the bend 23 and the hose 25 to the corresponding nozzle 24, and the water is sprayed out from the nozzle 24 to extinguish the fire.

[0030] In some specific implementation plans, such as Figure 3 As shown, in order to expand the fire extinguishing range of this device, the angle adjustment structure includes a lifting cylinder 42 and a lifting rod 43. The lifting cylinder 42 is fixedly connected inside the hollow column 3. The driving end of the hollow column 3 is fixedly connected to the middle position of the lifting rod 43. The lifting cylinder 42 is retracted or extended, so that the lifting cylinder 42 can drive the lifting rod 43 to move up and down reciprocally. There are strip-shaped through holes 41 on both sides of the hollow column 3. The two ends of the lifting rod 43 pass through the strip-shaped through holes 41, and the ends are rotatably connected to the linkage rod 44. The lifting rod 43 can slide up and down along the strip-shaped through holes 41. The end of the linkage rod 44 away from the lifting rod 43 is rotatably connected to the top of the corresponding hinge plate 45. The lifting rod 43 can drive the corresponding end of the linkage rod 44 to move upward. The linkage rod 44 generates a pulling force on the hinge plate 45, and the pulling force causes the hinge plate 45 to flip.

[0031] In some specific implementation plans, such as Figure 5 As shown, in order to facilitate the synchronous rotation of the hollow column 3 and the bent tube 23, the bent tube 23 passes through the driven gear 32 and the disc 31, and is fixedly connected to the disc 31. The hollow column 3, the driven gear 32, the disc 31 and the bent tube 23 are integrated into one unit.

[0032] In some specific implementation plans, such as Figure 5 As shown, in order to avoid affecting the water delivery during rotation, the fixed sleeve 22 and the bend 23 are rotatably connected at the position above the hollow column 3. When the hollow column 3 rotates, it drives the driven gear 32, the disc 31 and the bend 23 to rotate synchronously. At this time, the bend 23 rotates around the center point of the fixed sleeve 22 to avoid affecting the water delivery during rotation.

[0033] To facilitate understanding of the embodiments of this solution by those skilled in the art, the working principle of this solution will now be briefly explained in conjunction with specific application scenarios:

[0034] In actual operation, smoke detector 6 is used to detect smoke inside the data center and transmit the detection results to controller 7. Alarm 5 is used to sound an alarm after receiving instructions from controller 7. Controller 7 can also transmit abnormal signals to the Internet of Things and information center. Controller 7 is used to control the opening and closing of various components. When fire extinguishing is required, controller 7 controls the water pump 21, motor 34, and lifting cylinder 42 to start. Water pump 21 delivers water from water tank 2 through bend pipe 23 and hose 25 to the inside of nozzle 24, where it is sprayed out to extinguish the fire. Motor 34 drives drive gear 33 to rotate, thereby... The driven gear 32, meshing with the driving gear 33, drives the bend 23, hose 25, and nozzle 24 to rotate as a whole. The lifting cylinder 42 then drives the lifting rod 43 to move up and down, which in turn drives the two hinge plates 45 to rotate up and down repeatedly through the two linkage rods 44. This adjusts the tilt angle of the two nozzles 24, allowing the two nozzles 24 to expand the spray range and improve the fire extinguishing effect by coordinating the rotation with the tilt angle adjustment. This solves the problem that existing fire protection systems often have a small spray range and limited fire extinguishing range, resulting in poor fire extinguishing effect.

[0035] The foregoing has described several embodiments of this utility model in detail, but these embodiments are not limited thereto and should not be considered as limiting the scope of this utility model. All equivalent changes and improvements made within the scope of the claims of this utility model should still fall within the patent coverage of this utility model.
