Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to fire extinguishing equipment especially to non-pressure type container valve and fire extinguishing device thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the continuous improvement of fire safety demand, the performance and structure optimization of fire extinguishing device become the research focus. Among the key components of fire extinguishing device, the design of container valve plays a crucial role in fire extinguishing effect. The traditional container valve exposes many problems in practical application, prompting the emergence of new non-pressure type container valve scheme.

[0003] Disadvantages of traditional pressure type container valve: the pressure type container valve is in high pressure state for a long time, which requires high material quality and sealing performance of the container, increasing the manufacturing cost and safety risk. Long-term storage may cause parts aging and deformation, reduce the sealing performance and cause leakage problems, which not only affects the normal use of fire extinguishing device, but also may fail to start at critical moment, endangering life and property safety.

[0004] Defects of existing non-pressure type container valve: the existing non-pressure type fire extinguishing device mentioned in the reference document, such as the full fluorine hexanone fire extinguishing device disclosed in the utility model patent with application number CN202320898391.8, has complex structure. Its expansion assembly contains multiple components such as storage pipe, gas generating agent and ignition element, and the matching precision between components is high, which increases the difficulty of installation and maintenance. When spraying fire extinguishing agent, the gas generating agent needs to be ignited to generate gas, and the gas expansion pushes the fire extinguishing agent to break through the sealing film and spray out. This process involves multiple links and has slow response speed, which cannot control the fire in time and effectively.

[0005] Some non-pressure type container valves need to be inverted on the fire extinguishing agent bottle body. When the container valve is inverted, there will be some fire extinguishing agent in liquid form on the container valve. When the fire extinguisher is started, the fire extinguishing agent in liquid state will not be compressed, which is easy to cause the starting knife head on the container valve to be stuck.

[0006] In modern society, the standards for fire safety in various places are increasingly strict. Especially in densely populated public places, flammable and explosive industrial areas and places with high requirements for electronic equipment protection, once a fire breaks out, the fire extinguishing device needs to respond quickly and extinguish the fire efficiently. The traditional container valve cannot meet these high requirements, so there is an urgent need for a non-pressure type container valve with simple structure, sensitive response and safety and reliability to improve the overall performance of the fire extinguishing device and ensure fire safety.

[0040] Fire extinguishing agent passage 101 is installed with the valve core 11 that can move up and down, and the support block 12 is screwed tightly at the outlet end of fire extinguishing agent passage 101, and the first elastic return member 13 is installed between the valve core 11 and the support block 12, the first elastic return member 13 is spring, and the first elastic return member 13 can make the valve core 11 reset in time after fire extinguishing agent injection is finished, when the valve core 11 moves downwards and is topped to the support block 12, the valve passage 111 on the valve core 11 is opened, and fire extinguishing agent will flow to the outlet end of fire extinguishing agent passage 101 through the valve passage 111;

[0041] The valve core 11 can also be used as the filling inlet of fire extinguishing agent, and the filling connector is installed at the lower end of valve body 10 and opens the valve core 11, the valve passage 111 of the valve core 11 is opened, and fire extinguishing agent can be filled into the fire extinguishing agent bottle body, after filling, the valve core 11 will be automatically closed under the action of the elastic force, and the fire extinguishing agent in the fire extinguishing agent bottle body will not flow into the valve core 11 or below the valve core 11, and the resistance of the valve core 11 is small.

[0042] The valve body 10 is provided with a gas production cavity 102 and a gas delivery channel 103. The upper end of the gas delivery channel 103 penetrates the upper end surface of the valve body 10 and is oriented in the same direction as the inlet end of the fire extinguishing agent channel 101. A plug 14 is installed on the gas delivery channel 103 and seals the gas delivery channel 103. The lower end of the gas delivery channel 103 is in communication with the gas production cavity 102. A gas production assembly for producing high-pressure gas is installed on the gas production cavity 102. When the gas production assembly is activated, a large amount of high-pressure gas is produced. The high-pressure gas pushes open the plug 14 and enters the fire extinguishing agent bottle body. The fire extinguishing agent in the fire extinguishing agent bottle body is pressed against the valve core 11 under the action of the high-pressure gas. The valve core 11 moves downward under the action of the force and abuts against the support block 12. The valve core 11 is opened, releasing the fire extinguishing agent.

[0043] When the container valve is inverted on the fire extinguishing agent bottle body, the lower end of the valve core 11 is not in contact with the liquid fire extinguishing agent. The resistance to the downward movement of the valve core 11 is small. The high-pressure gas produced by the gas production assembly can easily push open the valve core 11.

A clamping groove is provided on the inner wall of the fire extinguishing agent channel 101. The first opening retaining ring 16 is clamped in the clamping groove. The first opening retaining ring 16 is used to axially position the valve core 11. The first opening retaining ring 16 is located above the support block 12. The first elastic return member 13 passes through the first opening retaining ring 16 and is connected to the support block 12. The first opening retaining ring 16 precisely axially positions the valve core 11. This allows the valve core 11 to move only in the specified axial direction during upward and downward movement, avoiding problems such as poor sealing and smooth opening due to deviation, ensuring the reliability and stability of the valve operation.

During installation, the tool can be more easily and accurately installed in the specified position by cooperating with the lower positioning groove 122

[0046] The second open check ring 17 is installed at the upper end of the gas delivery channel 103, and the gas delivery channel 103 is also provided with a clamping groove, and the second open check ring 17 is clamped in the clamping groove. The third elastic reset member 18 is installed between the second open check ring 17 and the plug 14, and the third elastic reset member 18 is a spring. On the one hand, the third elastic reset member 18 prevents the plug 14 from being blown into the fire extinguishing agent bottle by high-pressure gas, and on the other hand, the third elastic reset member 18 enables the gas production assembly to reset in time after the gas production is completed, thereby avoiding the fire extinguishing agent from entering the gas production cavity 102. The lower end of the plug 14 is sealed to the lower end of the gas delivery channel 103 by the sealing ring 19.

[0047] The gas production assembly includes an igniter 15 and gunpowder, and the gunpowder is filled in the gas production cavity 102. The igniter 15 is threadedly fastened to the port of the gas production cavity 102, and the ignition end of the igniter 15 extends into the gas production cavity 102. When the container valve needs to be started, the igniter 15 is powered to generate an electric spark, the electric spark ignites the gunpowder, and the gunpowder explodes to produce high-pressure gas.
