Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fire protection equipment technology, specifically a fire monitor device. Background Technology

[0002] Fire monitors are fire-fighting devices that convert pressurized water into energy and spray it at high speed from the nozzle to form a water jet, thereby extinguishing fires at a certain distance. With the rapid development of the national economy, the factors leading to fires have increased significantly, and fire situations have become increasingly complex. Fire monitors can extinguish fires quickly and efficiently, preventing the spread of fires, and therefore play an increasingly important role in fire fighting.

[0003] The prior art patent document CN220309651U provides a fire monitor mounting and adjusting device, including an adjusting water cannon assembly, a rotating fixing assembly, and a hand-held fixing assembly. By using a rotating handrail, a rotating rod is rotated, which drives a turntable to rotate within the mounting frame, thereby rotating the mounting pipe connected to the turntable. This allows for angle adjustment of the cannon barrel mounted on the mounting pipe, facilitating the adjustment of water spraying according to the fire source location. It is convenient to use and has a simple structure. The rotating block drives the connecting rotating pipe to rotate, adjusting the position of the support rod downwards so that the grooved groove contacts the ground, increasing friction with the ground. The mounting frame and the support rod form a V-shape. By stepping on the rod, stability is increased, and the device is fixed in place, preventing the water cannon from moving due to strong kinetic energy, which would reduce the effectiveness of fire fighting.

[0004] Although the device has many beneficial effects, it still has the following problems: During the use of the device, the diameter of the cannon tube is fixed and the flow rate and velocity of the water jet are fixed, which is not convenient to adapt to different fire situations; secondly, the device requires manual adjustment of the angle during use, which is time-consuming and laborious, and it is not convenient to extinguish fires in time when no one is present. Improvements are needed. In view of this, we propose a fire monitor device. Utility Model Content

[0034] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0035] This utility model provides an overall structural diagram of an embodiment of a fire monitor device, including:

[0036] Please see Figures 1-6 This embodiment of a fire monitor device includes a fixed box 1. A nozzle 2 is welded to the side wall of the fixed box 1, and an adjusting component 3 is welded to the other end of the nozzle 2. The adjusting component 3 includes a sleeve 301. A first motor 302 is fixedly mounted on the outer circumference of the sleeve 301. A gear 303 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the first motor 302. The gear 303 meshes with a turntable 304. A plurality of sliding grooves 305 are formed on the side wall of the turntable 304. A slider 306 is slidably connected to the side wall of each of the plurality of sliding grooves 305. A rotating plate 307 is fixedly mounted on the side wall of each of the plurality of sliders 306. A moving block 308 is fixedly mounted on the other side wall of the rotating plate 307. A limit groove 309 is formed on the inner side wall of the sleeve 301. The other side of the fixed box 1... A water supply pipe 4 is fixedly installed on the wall. An aiming component 5 is welded to the bottom of the fixed box 1. A fixed base 6 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the aiming component 5. The first motor 302 is electrically connected to an external power source. By turning on the first motor 302, the gear 303 is driven to rotate, thereby causing the turntable 304 to rotate and driving multiple slides 305 to rotate. Then, the slider 306 moves in the slide 305, driving the rotating plate 307 to move. The moving block 308 moves along the limiting groove 309 to limit the movement direction of the rotating plate 307, preventing the rotating plate 307 from rotating with the turntable 304. The simultaneous movement of multiple rotating plates 307 makes it easy to adjust the nozzle 2 orifice diameter, thereby shooting out water columns with different flow rates and volumes, which is convenient to adapt to different fire situations.

[0037] It is worth noting that, in order to automatically aim at the fire source, the aiming component 5 specifically includes a first rotating seat 501. A fire detector 502 is snapped into the bottom of the inner cavity of the first rotating seat 501. A rotating shaft 503 is fixed to the side wall of the first rotating seat 501. A second rotating seat 504 is rotatably connected to one end of the rotating shaft 503. A second motor 505 is fixed to one end of the rotating shaft 503 through the side wall of the second rotating seat 504. A third motor 506 is fixed to the bottom of the second rotating seat 504. The second motor 505 and the third motor 506 are electrically connected to an external power supply. After the fire detector 502 detects a fire signal, it controls the third motor 506 to rotate and begin horizontal scanning to find the location of the fire source. It controls the second motor 505 to rotate, driving the rotating shaft 503 to rotate, thereby causing the first rotating seat 501 to drive the fire detector 502 to perform vertical scanning and positioning. After determining the location, it controls the nozzle 2 to spray water to extinguish the fire. This facilitates automatic aiming, saves manpower, and makes fire extinguishing more timely.

[0038] Next, in order to limit the position of the turntable 304, specifically, a limiting ring 310 is fixedly provided at one end of the inner circumference of the sleeve 301, and multiple toothed grooves are opened on one side of the outer circumference of the turntable 304. The turntable 304 is rotatably connected to the inner circumference of the sleeve 301. The limiting ring 310 is used to limit the position of the turntable 304 and prevent the turntable 304 from falling.

[0039] Meanwhile, in order to make the movement of the rotating plate 307 more stable, the multiple rotating plates 307 are arranged in a ring, and the size and position of the moving block 308 are matched with the size and position of the limiting groove 309. The multiple rotating plates 307 arranged in a ring facilitate the closure of the nozzle 2 hole, and the moving block 308, which matches the size and position of the limiting groove 309, makes the movement of the rotating plate 307 more stable.

[0040] Furthermore, to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the fire detector 502 for maintenance, specifically, a receiving groove 507 is provided at the bottom of the inner cavity of the first rotating seat 501. Multiple springs 508 are fixed at the bottom of the receiving groove 507, and a baffle 509 is fixed at the top of the springs 508. By pressing the baffle 509 to move it to the bottom of the receiving groove 507, the fire detector 502 can be taken out for maintenance. After reinstallation, the baffle 509 is released, and the rebound force of the springs 508 drives the baffle 509 to move upward, thereby limiting the position of the fire detector 502 and preventing it from slipping.

[0041] It is worth noting that, in order to improve stability, a fixing plate 510 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the second motor 505. The fixing plate 510 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the second rotating seat 504. The fixing plate 510, which is fixedly connected to the side wall of the second rotating seat 504, facilitates the improvement of the stability of the second motor 505 and prevents it from falling.

[0042] Finally, to facilitate the installation of the third motor 506, specifically, the top of the fixed base 6 is provided with a mounting groove 7, the bottom of the third motor 506 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting groove 7, and the bottom of the second rotating base 504 is rotatably connected to the top of the fixed base 6. The mounting groove 7, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the third motor 506, facilitates the installation of the third motor 506 and improves the protection effect.

[0043] In addition, the circuits, electronic components, and modules involved in this utility model are all existing technologies, which can be fully implemented by those skilled in the art, and need not be elaborated upon. Furthermore, the scope of protection of this utility model does not involve improvements to the internal structure and methods.

[0045] First motor 302: Y90S-2;

[0046] Second motor 505: Z90S-2;

[0047] Third motor 506: Z90S-2.

[0048] Combination Figures 1-6 The fire monitor device of this embodiment is used in the following specific process:

[0049] 1: When this device is needed to be used as a fire monitor, the fire detector 502 detects the fire situation, controls the first motor 302 to make the gear 303 rotate, which drives the turntable 304 to rotate, thereby causing multiple slides 305 to rotate and drive the slider 306 to move along the slides 305. Then, multiple rotating plates 307 move simultaneously to adjust the nozzle 2 orifice diameter and shoot out the water column with the corresponding flow rate and flow rate required for the fire.

[0050] 2: After the fire detector 502 detects a fire signal, it controls the third motor 506 to rotate and start horizontal scanning to find the location of the fire source. It controls the second motor 505 to rotate and drive the rotating shaft 503 to rotate, so that the first rotating seat 501 drives the fire detector 502 to perform vertical scanning and positioning. After the location is determined, it controls the sprinkler head 2 to spray water to extinguish the fire.
