Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fire protection equipment technology, specifically to a multi-dimensional fire cabinet. Background Technology
[0002] A fire cabinet is a specialized cabinet used to store and protect fire-fighting equipment and supplies. It is typically installed in easily accessible locations within buildings, such as public areas and fire exits, to ensure that personnel can quickly access fire-fighting supplies for firefighting and rescue operations in the event of a fire. Fire cabinets are equipped with various critical equipment, including dry powder, carbon dioxide, and water-based fire extinguishers and fire blankets for different types of fires; fire hoses and nozzles for connecting to fire hydrants or water sources; fire axes and crowbars for breaching; protective fire helmets and fire-resistant gloves; and some also include emergency lighting and evacuation signs to provide illumination and guide evacuation routes during a fire.
[0003] According to the patent authorization announcement number (CN114452580B), a fire hydrant box for rapid unwinding of pipes includes a cabinet containing a fire hydrant, fire hose, and outlet connector. In the event of a fire, operators first open the cabinet door. Then, based on the actual available space in front of the cabinet door, a corresponding number of operators can be flexibly arranged to simultaneously enter the work area and quickly retrieve various fire-fighting equipment from the cabinet to meet emergency fire response needs. However, the structure disclosed in this patent has shortcomings in practical application. Specifically, the fire hydrant box has only a single door, and the available space around the cabinet is narrow. In an emergency, only a few firefighters can approach the door to directly retrieve the fire-fighting equipment. Due to space constraints, other firefighters cannot simultaneously approach the door and must wait behind or assist in passing equipment. This situation severely restricts the efficiency of retrieving fire-fighting equipment, with a significant amount of valuable rescue time consumed in personnel waiting and equipment transfer, leading to a significant increase in the overall emergency response time and greatly affecting the timeliness of fire rescue operations, making it difficult to meet the practical needs of rapid and efficient fire suppression. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a multi-dimensional fire cabinet that addresses the problem of existing fire cabinets having a single door layout, which in emergency situations such as fires only allows a few firefighters to approach the cabinet door at the same time to retrieve items, while others have to wait in line, greatly reducing retrieval efficiency and delaying rescue opportunities. The proposed solution is to adopt a unique polygonal cabinet design that completely changes the situation of people waiting in line when retrieving items from traditional fire cabinets, significantly improving overall retrieval efficiency and buying valuable time for fire rescue.
[0005] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0006] A multi-dimensional fire cabinet includes: a fire cabinet body with a fire equipment receiving cavity built inside; multiple cabinet door mounting openings, all of which are opened on the fire cabinet body and are distributed in a polygonal pattern, all of which are connected to the fire equipment receiving cavity to form access channels for the fire equipment; and multiple cabinet doors, which are respectively installed at the multiple cabinet door mounting openings to realize the closing and opening of the fire equipment receiving cavity.
[0007] Furthermore, in this utility model, sliding guides are installed on both sides of the cabinet door assembly opening, and the cabinet door is slidably installed between the two sliding guides. The cabinet door can slide back and forth along the linear extension direction of the sliding guides to realize the opening and closing action of the cabinet door on the cabinet door assembly opening.
[0008] Furthermore, in this utility model, sliders are respectively installed on opposite sides of the cabinet door, and a sliding guide is provided with a groove on the side facing the cabinet door, and the sliders on both sides of the cabinet door are slidably embedded in the groove.
[0009] Furthermore, in this utility model, the aforementioned limiting component includes: a return spring, a locking pin, an assembly slot provided on the sliding guide, and a limiting slot provided on the cabinet door; the locking pin passes through the return spring, and the locking pin and the return spring are arranged coaxially; the return spring is installed in the assembly slot, one end of the return spring is connected to the outer wall of the locking pin, and the other end of the return spring is connected to the inner wall of the assembly slot; the locking pin can be engaged in the limiting slot to form a locking fit, thereby causing the cabinet door to open at the cabinet door assembly opening.
[0010] Furthermore, in this utility model, a central support column is installed inside the fire-fighting equipment housing cavity, and the central support column extends vertically along the geometric central axis of the fire cabinet; multiple radial partitions are installed on the central support column in the circumferential direction; a fan-shaped partition compartment is formed between two adjacent radial partitions, and multiple partition compartments correspond one-to-one with multiple cabinet door assembly openings.
[0011] Furthermore, in this utility model, multiple layered panels are detachably installed sequentially from top to bottom inside the aforementioned compartment.
[0012] Furthermore, in this utility model, multiple mounting slots are sequentially provided on the opposite sides of the partition compartment from top to bottom, and the opposite sides of the layered plate can be inserted into two oppositely arranged mounting slots.
[0013] Furthermore, in this utility model, a receiving groove is provided at the opening of the mounting slot, and a limiting component is assembled in the receiving groove. The limiting component includes an elastic element and a limiting element with a guide slope.
[0014] One end of the elastic element is connected to the bottom wall of the receiving groove, and the other end of the elastic element is connected to the limiting element;
[0015] The guide slope and the insertion path of the layer plate form a preset angle in the vertical direction. When the layer plate is inserted into the mounting slot, the edge of the layer plate fits against the guide slope of the limiting component, and the edge of the layer plate can slide along the guide slope.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages and beneficial effects:
[0017] 1. The fire cabinet in this application adopts a three-dimensional polygonal structure, with its base encompassing regular polygons such as hexagons and octagons. Compared to traditional cuboid fire cabinets, this unique structure exhibits superior spatial adaptability. In narrow spaces such as corridor corners and narrow passageways, or in irregular areas caused by building structures, the polygonal cabinet can be cleverly embedded, effectively avoiding the spatial redundancy caused by the shape limitations of traditional cabinets and maximizing space utilization.
[0018] 2. Each cabinet door assembly is equipped with a sliding door that can be opened and closed. Compared with traditional hinged cabinet doors, sliding doors do not require a large opening and closing space, greatly saving surrounding space resources. This design can perfectly adapt to the complex and ever-changing spatial environment of a fire scene, whether in narrow passages, crowded rooms, or areas blocked by debris.
[0019] 3. The polygonal layout of the fire cabinet enables powerful multi-person collaborative operation. Multiple firefighters can operate it simultaneously from different directions through the cabinet door mounting openings. Actual testing showed that the number of operators can be increased by 5 to 7 times compared to traditional fire cabinets. This means that in emergency fire situations, numerous firefighters can retrieve equipment at the same time, completely eliminating the queuing and waiting phenomena caused by the limited number of operators in the traditional model, achieving highly efficient collaborative work, and significantly improving the overall efficiency of rescue operations.

Detailed Implementation
[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings. The illustrative embodiments and descriptions of this utility model are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model. Example
[0030] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 This utility model provides a multi-dimensional fire cabinet. The fire cabinet body 1 is a three-dimensional polygonal structure, and its base shape includes, but is not limited to, regular polygons such as hexagons and octagons. The three-dimensional interior of the fire cabinet body 1 constructs a cavity for storing fire-fighting equipment. The fire cabinet body 1 has an independent cabinet door assembly port 19 on each bottom edge, and multiple assembly ports are evenly distributed as regular polygons in horizontal projection, all of which are directly connected to the cavity. Each cabinet door assembly port 19 is equipped with a sliding cabinet door 3. The polygonal layout of the fire cabinet body 1 allows multiple firefighters to operate independently from different directions simultaneously, increasing the number of operators by 5 to 7 times compared to traditional single or double-door fire cabinets, eliminating queuing and waiting time; multiple doors can be opened simultaneously to directly obtain the required equipment, eliminating transmission delays, and reducing the initial rescue response time in a 500㎡ fire scene from 45 seconds to within 20 seconds.
[0031] Please refer to Figures 3 to 5In some embodiments of this application, sliding guides 2 are installed on opposite sides of the cabinet door assembly opening 19. The cabinet door 3 is slidably assembled with the sliding guides 2 on both sides, allowing for smooth up-and-down sliding along the guides. Compared with traditional double-door fire cabinets, this design has significant advantages. Traditional double doors extend significantly to both sides when opened, occupying a large amount of fire escape space. This not only seriously hinders firefighters from quickly retrieving fire equipment from the cabinet, prolonging equipment retrieval time, but also greatly affects the actions of other rescue personnel, reducing overall rescue efficiency. In contrast, the cabinet door 3 of this fire cabinet uses an up-and-down sliding mechanism, which minimizes the space occupied by the cabinet door 3 in emergency fire situations, creating a more spacious and unobstructed environment for rescue operations.
[0032] Please refer to Figures 3 to 5 In some embodiments of this application, sliders are mounted on opposite sides of the cabinet door 3. Simultaneously, a suitable groove 8 structure is machined on the side of the sliding guide 2 facing the cabinet door 3. The sliders mounted on both sides of the cabinet door 3 are slidably embedded into the corresponding grooves 8. This ensures that the cabinet door 3, under the constraint of the sliding guide 2, can achieve a smooth, stable, and precise reciprocating sliding motion, thereby meeting the functional requirements of the fire cabinet for flexible opening and closing of the cabinet door 3 during actual use.
[0033] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments of this application, the limiting component mainly consists of a return spring 11, a locking pin 10, an assembly slot 9 formed on the sliding guide 2, and a limiting slot provided on the cabinet door 3.
[0034] Under normal conditions, cabinet door 3 falls naturally under gravity, closing the cabinet door assembly opening 19. When fire equipment needs to be retrieved in the event of a fire, firefighters only need to push cabinet door 3 upwards, moving it along the sliding guide 2 towards the top of cabinet door assembly opening 19. When cabinet door 3 moves to the preset position, that is, when the limiting slot on cabinet door 3 aligns with the assembly through slot 9 on sliding guide 2, locking pin 10 quickly inserts into the limiting slot under the elastic restoring force of return spring 11. After this action is completed, cabinet door 3 is precisely positioned, and firefighters no longer need to continuously lift cabinet door 3, freeing their hands to more easily remove fire equipment from the fire equipment receiving cavity.
[0035] After use, when it is time to close cabinet door 3, firefighters manually pull the locking pin 10, disengaging one end of the locking pin 10 from the limiting slot. At this time, the return spring 11 is compressed within the assembly slot 9. Because cabinet door 3 is no longer restrained by the locking pin 10, it moves under its own weight along the sliding guide 2 towards the lower part of the cabinet door assembly opening 19 until the cabinet door assembly opening 19 is completely closed. With cabinet door 3 closed, the locking pin 10 abuts against the surface of cabinet door 3, and the return spring 11 remains compressed, preparing for the next opening of cabinet door 3. This limiting component design greatly improves the convenience and efficiency of using the fire cabinet.
[0036] Please refer to Figure 2 In some embodiments of this application, a central support column 4 is vertically installed at the core position of the fire-fighting equipment receiving cavity. The central support column 4 is arranged along the geometric central axis of the fire cabinet 1, which greatly enhances the stability and symmetry of the overall cabinet structure. Multiple radial partitions 5 are evenly and orderly installed along the circumference of the central support column 4. The partitions extend radially outward from the central support column 4 as the origin, and each pair of adjacent radial partitions 5 encloses an independent fan-shaped partition compartment 7. These partition compartments 7 correspond one-to-one with multiple cabinet door mounting openings 19.
[0037] From the perspective of fire equipment management and maintenance, firefighters can systematically place similar equipment in the same compartment 7 based on key factors such as equipment type, function, and frequency of use. This scientific and reasonable classification and storage method not only makes the daily management of fire equipment more standardized and orderly, but also significantly improves the convenience of equipment maintenance and greatly reduces management costs and the probability of errors.
[0038] For example, in the event of a sudden fire, firefighters can quickly and accurately determine the type and quantity of fire-fighting equipment needed based on the fire's size, the characteristics of the burning materials, and the surrounding environment. Subsequently, multiple firefighters can simultaneously and efficiently proceed to their respective cabinet access points 19, quickly open the corresponding cabinet doors 3, and accurately retrieve the required quantity of fire-fighting equipment. This significantly reduces time wasted due to difficulties in finding and retrieving equipment, effectively improving the overall efficiency of fire rescue operations and gaining invaluable time to promptly contain the spread of fire and minimize casualties and property damage.
[0039] Please refer to Figure 2In some embodiments of this application, multiple mounting slots 14 are evenly spaced vertically from top to bottom on the opposite side walls of the partition compartment 7. The opposite sides of the layered plate 6 can be precisely engaged into the two oppositely arranged mounting slots 14, thereby achieving a stable installation of the layered plate 6 within the partition compartment 7. Through this design, multiple layered plates 6 are detachably and sequentially installed vertically inside the partition compartment 7.
[0040] Multiple shelving units 6 divide the interior space of the compartment 7 into several relatively independent sub-areas. Firefighters can flexibly categorize and store different types of fire equipment or related accessories in each sub-area based on factors such as the size, shape, and frequency of daily use of the fire equipment. Furthermore, because the shelving units 6 are designed to be easily disassembled and reinstalled, firefighters can conveniently adjust the spacing between the multiple shelving units 6 according to the size of various fire equipment. This feature makes the compartment 7 suitable for storing fire equipment and supplies of various specifications and types, greatly improving the flexibility and efficiency of the internal space utilization of the fire cabinet.
[0041] Please refer to Figures 5 to 6 In some embodiments of this application, a receiving groove 15 is provided at the opening of the mounting slot 14, communicating with it. A limiting component is assembled inside the receiving groove 15, which mainly consists of an elastic element 16 and a limiting member 17 with a guide ramp 18. One end of the elastic element 16 is securely connected to the bottom inner wall of the receiving groove 15, while the other end is tightly connected to the limiting component. When the elastic element is in its natural length state, at least a portion of the limiting component protrudes beyond the receiving groove 15, thus initially blocking an object exiting the mounting slot 14.
[0042] When the layered plate 6 is inserted into the mounting slot 14, the edge of the layered plate 6 comes into contact with the guide slope 18 of the limiting member 17. As the layered plate 6 continues to be inserted, the pressure it applies is decomposed according to mechanical principles, generating a component force in the direction of the receiving groove 15. Under the action of this component force, the limiting member overcomes the elastic force of the elastic member 16 and is completely pushed into the receiving groove 15, opening a channel for the layered plate 6 to smoothly and completely enter the mounting slot 14. Once the layered plate 6 is fully inserted into the mounting slot 14, its pressure on the limiting member 17 immediately disappears. At this time, under the action of the strong elastic restoring force of the elastic member 16, the limiting member 17 will quickly rebound, at least partially extending out of the receiving groove 15 again, returning to its original blocking position, thereby efficiently and stably preventing the layered plate 6 from accidentally detaching from the mounting slot 14.
[0043] When firefighters need to remove the shelving panel 6 to redesign the internal layout of compartment 7, they only need to manually press the limiting member 17 towards the receiving slot 15 to retract it completely into the receiving slot 15. After the limiting member 17 is fully inserted into the receiving slot 15, the shelving panel 6 can be easily and smoothly pulled out from the mounting slot 14, thereby flexibly adjusting the internal layout of compartment 7 to meet the diverse needs of storing and managing different fire-fighting equipment.
[0044] Working principle:
[0045] When a fire breaks out, after arriving at the scene, firefighters quickly locate the multi-dimensional fire cabinet and select the nearest cabinet door mounting opening 19 based on their own position. By pushing the sliding cabinet door 3, they quickly open the cabinet door 3 along the sliding guide 2 to obtain access to the fire equipment storage cavity;
[0046] Multiple firefighters can operate the equipment simultaneously from different cabinet doors, increasing the number of operators by 5 to 7 times compared to traditional fire cabinets. Everyone can retrieve equipment independently without passing it around or waiting, significantly improving efficiency. In the initial stages of a 500㎡ fire, the rescue response time was reduced from 45 seconds to within 20 seconds, effectively controlling the fire and minimizing losses.
[0047] The specific embodiments described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solution, and beneficial effects of this utility model. It should be understood that the above description is only a specific embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
