Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrical fire monitoring technology, and in particular to a novel electrical fire monitoring system. Background Technology

[0002] Electrical fires are a major threat to public safety, primarily caused by electrical faults such as short circuits, overloads, leakage, and poor connections. Traditional electrical fire monitoring systems mainly rely on temperature detection and residual current detection, but these suffer from problems such as slow response, high false alarm rates, and limited coverage, making them ill-suited for complex electrical environments. With the development of smart grids and IoT technologies, existing systems can no longer meet the fire protection requirements of modern buildings and industrial sites in terms of real-time performance, accuracy, and intelligence. Furthermore, the insufficient collaborative monitoring capabilities of multi-source electrical parameters (such as arcs, harmonics, and abnormal current and voltage waveforms) make it difficult to effectively identify early-stage hazards.

[0003] Traditional electrical fire monitoring systems suffer from several drawbacks: they only monitor residual current and temperature, cannot identify arcs caused by insulation damage and poor contact, have low fault location accuracy, lack intelligent analysis capabilities, are complex to install, and cannot be adapted to different power distribution scenarios.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a new type of electrical fire monitoring system. Utility Model Content

[0005] The present invention aims to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art and provide a new type of electrical fire monitoring system.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a novel electrical fire monitoring system, comprising a detection module, a control module, a management module, a communication module, an alarm module, and a power supply module. The control module is connected to the detection module, management module, communication module, alarm module, and power supply module via electrical signals. The power supply module is also connected to the control module, detection module, management module, communication module, and alarm module via electrical signals. The detection module includes an arc detection unit, a multi-parameter sensing unit, and a toggle switch unit. The arc detection unit is used to detect arc discharge phenomena in the circuit, enabling timely detection of potential fire hazards. The multi-parameter sensing unit is responsible for monitoring various electrical parameters such as current, voltage, and temperature to comprehensively assess the safety status of the electrical system. The toggle switch unit serves as a safety control device, capable of quickly cutting off the power supply when an abnormality is detected, preventing fire accidents.

[0007] Preferably, the control module includes an edge computing unit and a linkage contact design module. The edge computing unit can process and analyze the data collected by the detection module in real time to quickly identify potential fire risks, while the linkage contact design module can be linked with other safety devices, such as fire sprinkler systems and gas extinguishing systems, to automatically trigger corresponding fire extinguishing measures when a fire occurs.

[0008] Preferably, the management module includes a remote monitoring unit and a data analysis unit. The remote monitoring unit allows operators to remotely monitor the status of the entire electrical system and obtain fire monitoring data in real time. The data analysis unit can analyze historical data to identify potential fault modes and trends, providing data support for the maintenance and optimization of the electrical system.

[0009] Preferably, the communication module includes a wireless communication unit and a wired communication unit. The wireless communication unit adopts advanced wireless communication technologies such as LoRa, NB-IoT, and 4G / 5G to ensure stable data transmission and long-distance coverage. Even in cases of network instability and infeasibility of wired connections, it can guarantee the normal operation of the monitoring system and data upload. The wired communication unit provides a high-speed and reliable data transmission channel through wired methods such as fiber optics and Ethernet, which is particularly suitable for scenarios with high requirements for data transmission speed and stability.

[0010] Preferably, the alarm module includes an audible and visual alarm unit and an SMS alarm unit. The audible and visual alarm unit can immediately emit a strong audible and visual signal when a fire risk is detected, attracting the attention of people in the vicinity and enabling them to take timely emergency measures. The SMS alarm unit can send fire warning information to a preset mobile phone number via SMS, so that the operator can receive the warning information immediately regardless of their location, ensuring that the fire risk is dealt with in a timely manner.

[0011] Preferably, the power module includes an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) unit and a backup power switching device. The UPS unit can automatically take over the power supply when the main power supply fails, ensuring the continuous operation of the monitoring system and avoiding the loss of monitoring capability at critical moments. The backup power switching device can seamlessly switch between the main power supply and the backup power supply, ensuring that the power supply of the monitoring system is stable and reliable, and that monitoring will not be interrupted due to power failure.

[0012] This utility model provides a novel electrical fire monitoring system. It has the following beneficial effects:

This novel electrical fire monitoring system integrates a detection module, a control module, a management module, a communication module, an alarm module, and a power supply module, thus realizing a new type of electrical fire monitoring system with comprehensive and intelligent fire monitoring functions, forming an efficient and reliable electrical fire monitoring system.

[0014] 2. This novel electrical fire monitoring system incorporates a detection module and a control module. The detection module, as the system's front end, can monitor various abnormalities in the circuit in real time and accurately, especially arc discharge phenomena—a capability unmatched by traditional monitoring systems. The high sensitivity of the arc detection unit allows the system to detect and address fire hazards as soon as they appear, significantly reducing the probability of fires. The control module, the system's core, rapidly processes and analyzes the data collected by the detection module, identifies potential fire risks, and takes corresponding measures. The collaboration between the edge computing unit and the linkage contact design module enables the system not only to respond quickly to fire risks but also to link with other safety devices, achieving intelligent fire suppression measures.

[0015] 3. This novel electrical fire monitoring system incorporates a management module and a communication module. The management module provides remote monitoring and data analysis capabilities, enabling operators to monitor the electrical system's status anytime, anywhere, and promptly identify and address potential problems. The data analysis unit can analyze historical data, providing strong data support for the maintenance and optimization of the electrical system. The communication module ensures stable data transmission and long-distance coverage. Both wireless and wired communication units guarantee the normal operation and data upload of the monitoring system in various environments. Simultaneously, the alarm module immediately issues an alarm signal upon detecting a fire risk, attracting the attention of surrounding personnel and prompting emergency measures. The combined use of audible and visual alarm units and SMS alarm units ensures that operators receive early warning information regardless of their location, ensuring timely handling of fire risks. Furthermore, the power module guarantees continuous operation and a stable and reliable power supply for the monitoring system. Even in the event of a main power failure, a seamless switchover to a backup power supply is achieved through a backup power switching device, ensuring the normal operation of the monitoring system.
