Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of IDC data center security protection technology, and in particular to an IDC data center fire extinguishing control device. Background Technology

[0002] As the core location for data storage and processing, IDC data centers house a large number of critical facilities such as servers and network equipment. These devices are valuable and generate a lot of heat during operation. Once a fire occurs, the losses will be extremely heavy, thus requiring the installation of corresponding monitoring and fire extinguishing devices.

[0003] Currently, existing traditional fire suppression control equipment for IDC (Internet Data Center) server rooms has many problems. On the one hand, the monitoring methods are relatively simple, mostly relying only on smoke sensors or temperature sensors, which cannot comprehensively and timely capture various abnormal signals in the early stages of a fire. For example, some minor electrical faults may cause localized overheating, which traditional equipment may not be able to detect when the temperature and smoke have not risen significantly, thus delaying the fire suppression opportunity. On the other hand, the fire suppression methods are not precise and efficient enough. Common gas fire suppression systems often cover the entire server room area when releasing the extinguishing agent. This not only wastes the extinguishing agent, but may also cause unnecessary damage to equipment in areas that are not on fire. For example, some humidity-sensitive equipment may malfunction due to extinguishing agent residue.

[0004] Therefore, a fire suppression control device for IDC (Internet Data Center) computer rooms is proposed. Utility Model Content

On the other hand, the fire suppression methods are not precise and efficient enough. Common gas fire suppression systems often cover the entire data center area when releasing the extinguishing agent. This not only wastes the extinguishing agent but may also cause unnecessary damage to equipment in areas that are not on fire. For example, some humidity-sensitive equipment may malfunction due to extinguishing agent residue.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0016] 1. This application establishes a fire prevention and control system and fire extinguishing structure. The fire monitoring module integrates multiple sensors, which are installed in various locations throughout the IDC computer room. This enables comprehensive real-time monitoring of fire hazard signals, overcoming the shortcomings of traditional single monitoring methods. It can promptly detect localized overheating caused by minor electrical faults, avoiding delays in fire extinguishing. The fire extinguishing structure of the fire extinguishing execution module is distributed in different locations within the computer room, dividing it into multiple independent fire extinguishing zones. The fire monitoring module feeds data back to the central control chip in the control terminal. After the data is received, processed, stored, and centralized by the control motherboard, it is transmitted to the management display platform for data display through the communication interface of the communication module. Once fire hazard signals such as temperature, smoke, flame, or electrical faults occur in the IDC computer room, the abnormal data will trigger the alarm unit of the alarm module. The alarm module transmits the abnormal information to the management display platform through the communication interface, promptly notifying staff. At the same time, the central control chip precisely controls the independent fire extinguishing structures in different areas to achieve precise fire extinguishing. Compared with traditional full-coverage fire extinguishing methods, this greatly reduces the waste of extinguishing agents and lowers the risk of damage to equipment in non-fired areas.

[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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-5 The present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0026] An IDC (Internet Data Center) server room fire suppression control device includes a housing 1, a fire prevention and control system 2, a fire suppression structure 3, and a management display platform 8. The housing 1 is equipped with a control motherboard 4. The rear of the control motherboard 4 is electrically connected to a communication interface 5, which is electrically connected to the management display platform 8. The top of the control motherboard 4 is equipped with a central control chip 6 and an alarm unit 7.

[0027] The fire prevention and control system 2 includes a control terminal 21. The receiving and output terminals of the control terminal 21 are bidirectionally electrically connected to a fire monitoring module 22. The output and receiving terminals of the control terminal 21 are bidirectionally electrically connected to a communication module 23. The output and receiving terminals of the communication module 23 are bidirectionally electrically connected to a remote management platform 24. The output terminal of the control terminal 21 is unidirectionally electrically connected to a fire extinguishing execution module 25. The output terminal of the control terminal 21 is unidirectionally electrically connected to an alarm module 26. The output terminal of the alarm module 26 is unidirectionally electrically connected to the receiving terminal of the communication module 23. The receiving terminal of the fire prevention and control system 2 is unidirectionally electrically connected to a power supply module 27.

[0028] In this embodiment: By setting up a fire prevention and control system 2, a fire extinguishing structure 3, and a management display platform 8, when the IDC server room is in normal operation, the various sensors of the fire monitoring module 22 constantly monitor all parts of the server room, collect data from all directions, and transmit the data in real time to the central control chip 6 of the control terminal 21. After receiving the data, the central control chip 6 starts to work, first receiving the data, then processing the data, removing noise and interference, etc. The processed data is stored, and at the same time, the data is centrally integrated. The integrated data is transmitted to the management display platform 8 through the communication interface 5 of the communication module 23 for real-time display, so that the management personnel can check the status of the server room at any time. Once a fire hazard occurs in the server room, such as an abnormal increase in temperature in a certain area, the appearance of smoke, the detection of flames, or an electrical fault, the abnormal data captured by the relevant sensors will trigger the alarm unit 7 of the alarm module 26. The alarm module 26 quickly sends the alarm signal through the communication interface 5. Normal information is transmitted to the management display platform 8, which promptly notifies staff. At the same time, the central control chip 6, based on the received abnormal data, precisely controls the independent fire extinguishing structures 3 in different areas. The fire extinguishing structures 3 are distributed in different locations in the computer room, dividing the room into multiple independent fire extinguishing zones. When the fire extinguishing structures 3 are activated, the extinguishing agent achieves precise fire extinguishing through them. This precise fire extinguishing method avoids the waste of extinguishing agent caused by traditional full-coverage fire extinguishing and also reduces the risk of damage to equipment in areas that have not yet caught fire. In addition to receiving and displaying data and receiving alarm information, the management display platform 8 also has remote management functions. Managers can use the management display platform 8 to send commands to the control motherboard 4 through the communication interface 5 to remotely operate and manage the fire extinguishing execution module 25, such as manually starting or stopping the fire extinguishing structure 3 in a certain area. They can also adjust the parameters of the fire monitoring module 22, such as setting alarm thresholds for temperature and smoke concentration, which significantly improves the convenience and intelligence of fire prevention and control management in the IDC computer room.

[0029] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the fire monitoring module 22 includes a temperature sensor 221, a smoke sensor 222, a flame sensor 223, and an electrical fault monitoring sensor 224. The temperature sensor 221 is a high-precision thermistor temperature sensor, which is installed near the server CPU and key heat-generating components, the air conditioning outlet and return air outlet, and the corners of the computer room walls and floor.

[0030] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the smoke sensor 222 is a laser scattering smoke sensor, which is installed inside the server rack above, above the cable tray, and on the ceiling of the computer room.

[0031] Specifically, such as Figure 4As shown, the flame sensor 223 is a dual-band flame sensor with ultraviolet and infrared light, which is installed on the front and back of the server rack, the area where flammable materials are stored in the computer room, and the area with dense electrical equipment, respectively. The electrical fault monitoring sensor 224 is installed inside the power distribution cabinet, at the cable joint, and inside the UPS power supply.

[0032] In this embodiment: by setting up a fire monitoring module 22, its temperature sensor 221 is deployed on key heat-generating parts such as server CPUs, air conditioning vents, and corners of the computer room to accurately capture temperature anomalies in real time. The smoke sensor 222 is installed inside the server rack, above the cable tray, and on the ceiling, which can quickly detect tiny smoke particles with high sensitivity. The flame sensor 223 covers server racks, flammable material storage areas, and areas with dense electrical equipment to accurately identify flame signals. The electrical fault monitoring sensor 224 targets power distribution cabinets, cable joints, and UPS power supplies, which are prone to electrical faults, and monitors current, voltage, and leakage in real time. The various sensors perform their respective functions and transmit the collected data synchronously to the control terminal 21, avoiding the limitations of traditional single monitoring methods and ensuring that fire hazards in the computer room are detected in a timely and accurate manner, providing a reliable basis for subsequent fire fighting decisions.

[0033] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the fire extinguishing structure 3 includes an independent fire extinguishing agent delivery pipeline 31. The receiving end of the independent fire extinguishing agent delivery pipeline 31 is connected to an external fire extinguishing agent storage container. The output end of the independent fire extinguishing agent delivery pipeline 31 is connected to a solenoid valve 32, which is a fire extinguishing execution module 25.

[0034] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the output end of the solenoid valve 32 is connected to an independent fire extinguishing nozzle 33. The independent fire extinguishing nozzles 33 are installed above the server rack, near the cable tray, around the air conditioning equipment, above the computer room passage, and in the UPS power supply area. The spacing can be adjusted and controlled according to different locations, specifically 20-30 cm, 1.5-2 m, 50-80 cm, 3-5 m, and 1.5-2.5 m.

[0035] In this embodiment: By setting up a fire extinguishing structure 3, which adopts a zoned independent control design, precise fire extinguishing is achieved through independent fire extinguishing agent delivery pipelines 31, solenoid valves 32, and independent fire extinguishing nozzles 33. Each independent fire extinguishing nozzle 33 corresponds to an independent fire extinguishing agent delivery pipeline 31 and is connected to a fire extinguishing agent storage container. The opening and closing are controlled by the solenoid valve 32. The independent fire extinguishing nozzles 33 are arranged according to the fire risk areas of the computer room, above server racks, near cable trays, around air conditioning equipment, in computer room corridors, and in UPS power supply areas. The spacing is set differently according to the characteristics of the equipment and space requirements. For example, the spacing above the servers is 20-30 cm, and at the cable trays it is 1.5-2 meters. When the fire monitoring module 22 triggers an alarm, the central control chip 6 of the control terminal 21 accurately controls the opening of the corresponding area's solenoid valve 32 according to the fire location information, so that the fire extinguishing agent can directly reach the fire source through the fire extinguishing agent delivery pipeline and the independent fire extinguishing nozzle 33. This avoids the waste caused by traditional full-area coverage fire extinguishing and damage to equipment in non-fire areas, significantly improving fire extinguishing efficiency and equipment protection effect.

[0036] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, a buzzer alarm 9 is installed on the rear side of the management display platform 8. The buzzer alarm 9 is electrically connected to the alarm unit 7. The buzzer alarm 9 is installed near the entrance and exit of the computer room, above the main passage, and near the personnel work area.

[0037] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, red flashing lights 10 are provided on both sides of the buzzer alarm 9, and the red flashing lights 10 are electrically connected to the alarm unit 7.

[0038] In this embodiment: By setting up a buzzer alarm 9 and a red flashing light 10, the buzzer alarm 9 is installed near the entrance and exit of the computer room, main passage and personnel work area to ensure that the alarm sound covers the entire area. The red flashing light 10 is linked with the buzzer alarm 9 and is installed on both sides of it. It attracts people's attention by flashing at high frequency. When the alarm unit 7 receives an abnormal signal from the fire monitoring module 22, it immediately triggers the buzzer alarm 9 to emit a continuous alarm sound and lights up the red flashing light 10. The dual warning means operate in sync, quickly reminding the personnel in the computer room that a fire has occurred and guiding them to evacuate according to the evacuation route. At the same time, the strong sound and light signal also makes it easier for external rescue personnel to locate the fire location as soon as possible, buy time for emergency response, and improve the overall safety protection capability.

[0039] Working Principle: During the use of the fire control equipment in the IDC server room, firstly, the various modules of the fire prevention and control system 2 work together to build a complete and efficient fire prevention and control system. During normal operation, the temperature sensor 221, smoke sensor 222, flame sensor 223, and electrical fault monitoring sensor 224 in the fire monitoring module 22 are installed at key locations in the server room to collect data such as temperature, smoke, flame, and electrical parameters in real time, and transmit them to the central control chip 6 of the control terminal 21. The control motherboard 4 receives, processes, stores, and integrates the data, and then transmits it to the management display platform 8 through the communication module 23. The management personnel can intuitively view the status of the server room. Once a fire hazard is detected, such as a sudden rise in temperature or excessive smoke concentration, the alarm unit 7 of the alarm module 26 is triggered, and the buzzer alarm 9 and the red flashing light 10 are activated simultaneously to issue an audible and visual warning to the personnel in the server room. At the same time, abnormal information is quickly transmitted to the management system via the communication module 23. The display platform 8 facilitates staff monitoring of the situation. Based on fire data, the central control chip 6 precisely controls the opening of the solenoid valves 32 in the corresponding areas of the fire extinguishing structure 3, allowing the extinguishing agent to be delivered through the independent extinguishing agent delivery pipeline 31 and independent nozzles to target the fire point, avoiding the resource waste and equipment damage caused by traditional full-area spraying. On this basis, the communication module 23 can further expand the system's functions. For example, it can connect with the computer room access control system, which can trigger the access control system to automatically open the relevant area access control when the fire information is triggered, opening up channels for personnel evacuation and fire rescue. It can also be linked with the ventilation system to shut down the ventilation equipment in the fire area in a timely manner, preventing airflow from exacerbating the spread of the fire. In addition, the data encryption function of the communication module 23 runs through the entire information transmission process. It uses a high-strength encryption algorithm to encrypt fire data, control commands, etc., to ensure that the data is not stolen or tampered with during transmission, ensuring the reliability of computer room security information and the stability of system operation.

[0040] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
