The flame detector 20 and the connecting device 7 are both electrically connected to the control module 4. The connecting device 7 has a locked state and a released state. In the locked state, the connecting device 7 connects the fire blanket 6 to the top wall of the compartment 2. In the released state, the connecting device 7 releases the fire blanket 6, causing the fire blanket 6 to fall and cover the burning vehicle to isolate the vehicle from the outside world. The control module 4 controls the connecting device 7 to switch between the released state and the locked state.

[0028] In this embodiment, the connecting device 7 is normally in a locked state. When a vehicle parked in the shed 2 catches fire, the flame detector 20 detects the flame on the vehicle and transmits the signal that a flame has been detected to the control module 4. The control module 4 then controls the connecting device 7 to switch to a release state, thereby causing the connecting device 7 to release the fire blanket 6. The fire blanket 6 falls and covers the burning vehicle, isolating it from external oxygen and thus achieving the effect of extinguishing the fire. This reduces losses and improves the safety of the shed.

[0029] In this embodiment, the control module 4 is a control switch, which is installed on the side wall of the shed 2. The control switch is electrically connected to the flame detector 20, and the connection device 7 is electrically connected to the control switch. When the flame detector 20 detects that a flame is generated, the control switch receives the signal transmitted by the flame detector 20 and controls the connection device 7 to switch to the release state.

[0030] In this embodiment, the control module 4 is connected to the flame detector 20 via a cable, and the control module 4 is electrically connected to the connection device 7 via a cable. In other embodiments, the control module 4 can wirelessly communicate with the flame detector 20 and the connection device 7.

[0031] In one embodiment, multiple connecting devices 7 are provided, and the multiple connecting devices 7 are arranged at intervals on the circumferential edge of the fire blanket 6.

[0032] In this embodiment, multiple connecting devices 7 are spaced apart along the circumferential edge of the fire blanket 6, so that the fire blanket 6 is horizontally positioned in the shed 2, improving the stability of the fire blanket 6 when it is not released. All connecting devices 7 are electrically connected to the control module 4. When a flame is generated, the control module 4 controls all connecting devices 7 to simultaneously switch to the release state, thereby releasing the fire blanket 6. Multiple connecting devices 7 can improve the stability of the fire blanket 6 in the normal state.

[0038] The fire blanket 6 includes a blanket body 8 and a connector 9.

[0039] The lower end of connector 9 is connected to fire blanket 6.

[0040] Along the first direction, the drive member 22 can drive the support rod 12 to move between the locked position and the unlocked position. In the locked state, the support rod 12 moves to the locked position, the upper end of the connector 9 is sleeved on the support rod 12, and the support rod 12 supports the connector 9. In the released state, the support rod moves to the unlocked position, the connector 9 falls off the support rod 12, and the blanket 8 covers the burning vehicle.

[0041] In this embodiment, the first direction is the length direction of the support rod 12.

[0042] In this embodiment, the upper end of the connector 9 is sleeved on the support rod 12, and the support rod 12 supports the connector 9. When a fire appears inside the shed 2 during operation, the drive unit 22 drives the support rod 12 to move to the unlock position, and the upper end of the connector 9 loses the support of the support rod 12. The connector 9 and the blanket 8 fall off, so that the blanket 8 covers the burning vehicle.

[0043] In one embodiment, the drive unit 22 is a linear motor electrically connected to the control module 4, the cylinder of the linear motor is connected to the mounting base 14, and the bearing rod 12 is connected to the piston rod of the linear motor.

[0045] In one embodiment, the mounting base 14 has a mounting cavity 17, the guide hole 13 communicates with the mounting cavity 17, one end of the support rod 12 extends out of the mounting cavity 17, the other end of the support rod 12 extends into the mounting cavity 17, and the linear motor is installed in the mounting cavity 17.

[0046] In this embodiment, the linear motor is installed in the mounting cavity 17, and the support rod 12 passes through the guide hole 13. The outer peripheral surface of the support rod 12 contacts the inner wall of the guide hole 13, and one end of the support rod 12 extending into the mounting cavity 17 is connected to the mover of the linear motor. The linear motor, located in the mounting cavity 17, can protect the drive component 22 from rainwater damage.

[0047] In one embodiment, the mounting base 14 includes a driving part 16, a connecting part 18, and a stopping part 15. The connecting part 18 is connected to the top wall of the shed 2 and extends along a first direction. Along the first direction, the stopping part 15 and the connecting part 18 are spaced apart. The mounting cavity 17 and the guide hole 13 are located on the driving part 16. In the locked position, the end of the bearing rod 12 away from the driving member 22 abuts against the side of the stopping part 15 facing the driving part 16.

[0048] In this embodiment, the stop portion 15 and the connecting portion 18 are spaced apart so that the stop portion 15, the connecting portion 18 and the driving portion 16 form an installation space. In the locked state, the end of the bearing rod 12 away from the driving member 22 abuts against the side of the stop portion 15 facing the driving portion 16, so that the upper end of the connector 9 is connected in the space formed by the stop portion 15, the connecting portion 18, the driving portion 16 and the bearing rod 12, so that the connector 9 cannot fall off in the locked state.

[0049] In one embodiment, the connecting part 18 is detachably connected to the top wall of the shed 2.

[0050] In this embodiment, along the first direction, the two ends of the connecting part 18 are provided with extension plates, the extension plates are provided with first connecting holes 19, and the top wall of the shed 2 is provided with second connecting holes.

[0051] In one embodiment, the connector 9 is a hanging rope 10, which is looped. The lower end of the hanging rope 10 is connected to the blanket body 8. In the locked state, the upper end of the hanging rope 10 is sleeved on the support rod 12.

[0052] In this embodiment, in the locked state, the upper part of the hanging rope 10 is looped around the support rod 12.

[0053] In this embodiment, the blanket body 8 has two spaced-apart through holes 11 that penetrate the blanket body 8 along its thickness direction. The lower end of the hanging rope passes through the two through holes 11, thereby connecting the hanging rope 10 to the blanket body 8. The structure is simple and easy to design.

[0054] In this embodiment, the strip rope can be passed through the two through holes 11 and then the two ends of the strip rope can be connected together by heat fusion to form a loop hanging rope 10.

[0055] In this embodiment, the carport also includes a canopy 3 disposed above the canopy body 1. The canopy 3 is inclined to guide rainwater and also to block sunlight.

[0056] The working principle of the carport provided in this embodiment of the utility model is as follows:

[0057] Under normal circumstances, the connecting device 7 is in the locked state. When the smoke detector 21 detects smoke in the shed 2, the smoke detector 21 transmits a signal to the control module 4. The control module 4 controls the alarm 5 to sound an alarm to alert the staff or people in the shed 2. When the flame detector 20 detects a flame in the shed 2, the flame detector 20 transmits a signal to the control module 4. The control module 4 controls the connecting device 7 to switch to the released state. The driving component 22 drives the support rod 12 to move to the unlocked position. The upper end of the connecting component 9 loses the support of the support rod 12, and the connecting component 9 and the blanket 8 fall off, so that the blanket 8 covers the burning vehicle, isolating it from the outside oxygen, thereby achieving the effect of extinguishing the fire.

[0058] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0059] According to the carport provided in this embodiment of the utility model, when a vehicle parked in the shed 2 catches fire, the flame detector 20 detects the flame on the vehicle. The flame detector 20 transmits the signal that a flame has been detected to the control module 4, which controls the connecting device 7 to switch to the release state, thereby causing the connecting device 7 to release the fire blanket 6, which falls and covers the burning vehicle, isolating it from external oxygen, thereby achieving the effect of extinguishing the fire, reducing losses, and improving the safety of the carport.

[0060] In other embodiments, the drive element 22 may be a cylinder.

[0061] In other embodiments, the bottom of the hanging rope 10 can be directly and integrally connected to the blanket body 8.
