Description

Technical Field

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The technical solution of this utility model will be further explained and described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, but this utility model is not limited to the embodiments described below.

[0025] Current power plant fire-fighting water spray systems have their main water supply pipe located on the roof of the power plant building. When the outdoor temperature is below 0°C, the water in the main pipe easily freezes, preventing effective water delivery and thus hindering the normal operation of the fire-fighting system. This results in an inability to respond quickly and extinguish fires, causing severe economic losses and casualties. This invention aims to provide a power plant fire-fighting water spray system that connects the fire-fighting water supply pipe to the fire-fighting water supply pipe and draws water from an underground fire-fighting water tank. This effectively avoids the problem of the main water supply pipe freezing due to low outdoor temperatures, ensuring that the fire-fighting system can respond quickly and deliver water effectively even in low-temperature environments, thereby extinguishing fires promptly and significantly reducing potential economic losses and casualties from fires.

[0026] Example 1:

[0027] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 This utility model discloses a fire-extinguishing water spray system for power plants, comprising a water supply pipeline, a fire-fighting water pipeline, and a fire-fighting water tank. The inlet end of the fire-fighting water pipeline is connected to the underground fire-fighting water tank via an underground pipeline, utilizing the relatively stable underground temperature to prevent the water in the fire-fighting water pipeline from freezing. The inlet end of the water supply pipeline is connected to the fire-fighting water pipeline, which provides fire-extinguishing water to the water supply pipeline. The outlet end of the water supply pipeline is connected to a nozzle to ensure that the water in the water supply pipeline does not easily freeze in low-temperature environments.

[0028] Specifically, the water mist system also includes a central control platform and fire detectors; the fire detectors are electrically connected to the central control platform and to the water supply pipeline. Under normal circumstances, the water in the water supply pipeline is not flowing, and the water mist system is in standby mode; when a fire occurs, the fire detectors detect the fire and send a signal to the central control platform. After receiving the signal, the central control platform quickly adjusts the water flow in the water supply pipeline to achieve fire extinguishing operations.

[0029] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The water supply pipeline includes a main water supply pipeline 1, a first water supply branch pipe 2, and a second water supply branch pipe 3. The main water supply pipeline 1 is connected to the fire-fighting water supply pipeline located inside the factory building. The first water supply branch pipe 2 and the second water supply branch pipe 3 are connected in parallel at the outlet end of the main water supply pipeline 1. The first water supply branch pipe 2 and the second water supply branch pipe 3 serve as backups for each other to ensure a rapid response and water supply operation in the event of a fire.

[0030] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2The main water supply pipeline 1 is equipped with a first regulating component 4, which includes a gate valve 41, a pressure reducing valve 43, a filter 42, and a pressure gauge 44. Through the cooperation between the gate valve 41, the pressure reducing valve 43, the filter 42, and the pressure gauge 44, the water flow can be precisely regulated.

[0031] The gate valve 41 is installed on the main water supply pipeline 1, which allows operators to adjust the flow of water as needed.

[0032] The pressure reducing valve 43 is installed on the main water supply pipeline 1 and is located between the gate valve 41 and the first water supply branch pipe 2. It is used to regulate the water pressure in the main water supply pipeline 1 to ensure that the water flow maintains a stable and appropriate pressure during the transportation process.

[0033] The filter 42 is installed on the main water supply pipeline 1, and is located between the gate valve 41 and the pressure reducing valve 43. It is used to remove impurities from the water to protect the subsequent first and second water supply branch pipes 2 and 3 from blockage and damage. Specifically, the filter 42 can be a basket filter, bag filter, or Y-type filter, etc., to filter impurities in the water within the main water supply pipeline 1. Preferably, the filter 42 is a Y-type filter, which has a simple structure, good filtration effect, and is easy to maintain.

[0034] The pressure gauge 44 is installed on the main water supply pipeline 1 and is located between the pressure reducing valve 43 and the first water supply branch pipe 2. The pressure gauge 44 is electrically connected to the central control platform and is used to monitor the water pressure in the main water supply pipeline 1 in real time to ensure that the water spray system operates under safe and stable pressure.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A second regulating component 5 is provided on the first water supply branch pipe 2. The second regulating component 5 includes a first signal valve 51, a deluge valve 52, a second signal valve 53, and a check valve 54. Through the cooperation between the first signal valve 51, the deluge valve 52, the second signal valve 53, and the check valve 54, the precise regulation and safety protection of the water flow in the first water supply branch pipe 2 can be achieved.

[0036] The first signal valve 51 and the deluge valve 52 are both installed on the first water supply branch pipe 2, and the first signal valve 51 is located between the main water supply pipe 1 and the deluge valve 52. The first signal valve 51 is electrically connected to the central control platform and is used to adjust the opening and closing of the deluge valve 52.

[0037] The second signal valve 53 is installed on the first water supply branch pipe 2, and the deluge valve 52 is located between the first signal valve 51 and the second signal valve 53. The second signal valve 53 is electrically connected to the central control platform to provide an additional safety control point.

[0038] The check valve 54 is installed on the first water supply branch pipe 2, and the second signal valve 53 is located between the deluge valve 52 and the check valve 54 to prevent backflow of water in the first water supply branch pipe 2 and protect the stability of the water spray system.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The second water supply branch pipe 3 is provided with a third adjustment component, and the structure of the third adjustment component is the same as that of the second adjustment component 5, so as to ensure the consistency and interchangeability of the functions of the first water supply branch pipe 2 and the second water supply branch pipe 3, and improve the reliability and flexibility of the water spray system.

[0040] This utility model discloses a water spray system for fire extinguishing in power plants. Its working principle is as follows: Under normal circumstances, both gate valve 41 and pressure reducing valve 43 are closed. When a fire occurs, gate valve 41 and pressure reducing valve 43 are opened, allowing water to flow through the main water supply pipe 1 into the first regulating component 4. After regulation and filtration by gate valve 41, pressure reducing valve 43, and filter 42, the water flows into the first water supply branch pipe 2 or the second water supply branch pipe 3. On the first water supply branch pipe 2 or the second water supply branch pipe 3, after receiving a fire signal, the second regulating component 5 or the third regulating component opens the deluge valve 52 and the check valve 54, allowing water to flow through the first water supply branch pipe 2 or the second water supply branch pipe 3, spraying water mist from the nozzles to the fire location, thus achieving fire extinguishing through spray.
