Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a fire monitoring system including a residential information panel installed in a plurality of rooms and a residential building receiver installed in a management office. [Background technology]

[0002] An example of a facility that includes a control room and multiple rooms is an apartment building where many residents live. In such a facility, a home information panel connected to a fire detector is installed in each of the multiple rooms. In addition, a residential building receiver that controls the home information panels installed in each of the multiple rooms is installed in the control room.

[0003] When the residential building receiver receives a fire signal from one of the residential information panels in each room, it sends an alarm control signal to the residential information panel in a neighboring room, causing a fire alarm to be output. Therefore, even if the resident in the room where the fire was detected is not present, centralized monitoring is performed by the residential building receiver in the control room, and it is also possible to issue a fire alarm to residents in rooms other than the one where the fire was detected (see, for example, Patent Document 1). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2007-172101 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] In Patent Document 1, if a fire is detected in a room while the caretaker is away, a fire alarm is sent to neighboring rooms. However, ideally, the resident of the room in question should be the one to respond to the fire. In a fire monitoring system that monitors such facilities, the system is designed so that in the event of a fire, the lock to the control room is opened with a panic open, allowing the contents of the alarm to be confirmed by the residential building receiver installed in the control room.

[0006] However, residents may not be aware that the control room will be unlocked in the event of a fire, and may have no way of knowing how to read the building receiver. As a result, unless the resident who detected the fire calls 119 and the fire department arrives, a situation may arise in which a prompt response cannot be made, and there is a risk that the fire will spread due to a delayed response.

[0007] Therefore, in facilities that include a management office and multiple rooms, it is desirable to create a system that allows anyone, other than the manager and the resident where the fire was detected, to quickly take appropriate action when a fire occurs.

[0008] The present disclosure has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and aims to provide a fire monitoring system that has the functionality to allow anyone to quickly take appropriate action when a fire alarm is issued when a facility including a control room and multiple rooms is the target of fire monitoring. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] The fire monitoring system disclosed herein is a fire monitoring system that monitors a facility including a control room and multiple rooms, and sends an alert to rooms among the multiple rooms other than the room in which the fire is detected, prompting them to check the content of the alert sent by a residential building receiver installed in the control room. In addition, the fire monitoring system disclosed herein is a fire monitoring system that monitors a facility including a control room and multiple living rooms for fires, in which a home information panel connected to a fire detector is installed in each of the multiple living rooms, and a residential building receiver that controls the home information panels installed in each of the multiple living rooms is installed in the control room, and when a room among the multiple living rooms in which a fire detector that has detected a fire is installed is designated as the fire detection room, the residential building receiver issues an alert via a home information panel installed in a room other than the fire detection room, prompting the user to check the content of the alert from the residential building receiver installed in the control room. [Effects of the Invention]

[0010] According to the present disclosure, when a facility including a management office and multiple rooms is the target of fire monitoring, a fire monitoring system can be obtained that has the functionality to allow anyone to quickly take appropriate action when a fire alarm is issued. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[Figure 2] 1 is an explanatory diagram showing the layout of a first section regarding a fire monitoring target by the fire monitoring system according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG. [Figure 3] FIG. 10 is an explanatory diagram showing a state in which a fire has broken out in room 2 of the first section in the layout of FIG. 2 shown above as a specific example of embodiment 1 of the present disclosure. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0012] Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the fire monitoring system of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. The fire monitoring system disclosed herein has a technical feature in that, when a fire detector detects a fire in a certain room, it has the function of sending an alert to people in rooms other than the one where the fire was detected, prompting them to check the content of the alert sent by a residential receiver installed in the management room, thereby realizing a configuration that allows anyone to quickly take appropriate action when a fire alarm is issued.

[0013] Embodiment 1 Fig. 1 is an overall configuration diagram of a fire monitoring system according to a first embodiment of the present disclosure. The fire monitoring system shown in Fig. 1 monitors a facility including a control room and multiple rooms for fires. Fig. 1 illustrates a case where the multiple rooms are divided into multiple sections, section 1 to section N.

[0014] In the first embodiment, a specific example will be described in which a fire monitoring system is constructed by dividing an N-story facility into a first section, the first floor, and an Nth section, the Nth floor.

[0015] Each of the multiple rooms is equipped with an indoor fire prevention system 10. Figure 1 illustrates an example of indoor fire prevention system 10 in which a home information panel 11 connected to a fire detector 12 is installed in each room.

[0016] However, the indoor fire protection system 10 may also be configured to include other devices such as sprinklers, emergency broadcasting systems, bells, etc. Also, the fire detectors 12 and other devices may be installed not only in the indoor space but also in public areas such as corridors, but are not shown in FIG.

[0017] Meanwhile, a dwelling unit receiver 21 is installed in the control room to centrally control the home information panels 11 installed in each of the multiple rooms. The home information panels 11 installed in each room within the nth section (n is an integer from 1 to N) are connected to the dwelling unit receiver 21 via a signal line L(n). In the following explanation, when there is no need to particularly distinguish between sections, the signal line will simply be referred to as signal line L.

[0018] The dwelling unit receiver 21 is also configured to be able to centrally control an electric lock 22 that switches the door of the control room between open and closed, and a response action instruction panel 23 installed outside the control room. Note that the response action instruction panel 23 is not an essential requirement for the fire monitoring system according to the first embodiment.

[0019] The housing information panel 11 provided in each room is configured with an input / output control unit 11a, an output unit 11b, and an operation input unit 11c. When a fire in a room is detected by the fire detector 12, the input / output control unit 11a notifies the resident in the room of the fire detection via the output unit 11b by audio output, display output, etc., and also transmits a fire signal to the dwelling building receiver 21 via the signal line L.

[0020] By operating the operation input unit 11c, the resident can stop the sound output or check the detailed content while updating the display output.

[0021] Meanwhile, the dwelling unit receiver 21 is configured with an input / output control unit 21a, an output unit 21b, and an operation input unit 21c. The input / output control unit 21a comprehensively monitors the status of multiple rooms. In the following explanation, a room among the multiple rooms in which a fire has been detected by the fire detector 12 is referred to as a fire-detected room.

[0022] When the input / output control unit 21a in the dwelling unit receiver 21 receives a fire signal from the fire-detected room via signal line L, it notifies the output unit 21b of which room the fire has been detected in by audio output, display output, etc. In addition, the input / output control unit 21a switches the electric lock 22 in the management room from a closed state to an open state, allowing anyone to check the content of the notification from the dwelling unit receiver 21 installed in the management room.

[0023] Furthermore, the input / output control unit 21a of this embodiment 1 has a technical feature in that, when it receives a fire signal from a room where a fire has been detected, it can issue an alert via a housing information panel 11 installed in a room other than the room where the fire has been detected, prompting the user to check the content of the alert via the residential building receiver 21 installed in the management room.

[0024] Specifically, the input / output control unit 21a transmits an alarm signal via the signal line L to each housing information panel 11 installed in a room other than the room where the fire was detected, i.e., a room other than the room where the fire was detected, to prompt the panel to check the content of the alarm sent by the dwelling unit receiver 21 installed in the management room.

[0025] In response to this, when the input / output control unit 11a in each housing information panel 11 installed in a room other than the room where the fire was detected receives an alarm signal via the signal line L, it can issue an alarm via the output unit 11b to people in the rooms other than the room where the fire was detected, urging them to check the alarm content being implemented by the output unit 21b in response to the fire signal being received at the residential building receiver 21 installed in the management room.

[0026] Regarding the function of issuing an alarm via the residential information panel 11 installed in a room other than the fire detection room to prompt confirmation of the alarm content by the residential building receiver 21 installed in the management room, it is also possible to perform step-by-step control by the input / output control unit 11a so that an alarm sound is first sounded, and then detailed alarm information is notified by audio output, display output, etc. when operation is performed by the operation input unit 11c.

[0027] Furthermore, with regard to the notification from the dwelling unit receiver 21 that prompts confirmation of the notification content, it is possible to output audio instead of displaying the notification, or to use both displaying and audio output.

[0028] In addition, instead of sending an alarm signal to each residential information panel 11 installed in all rooms other than the source of the fire detection to prompt them to check the content of the alarm using the residential building receiver 21 installed in the management room, the input / output control unit 21a may send an alarm signal only to the rooms of predetermined people, such as members of the facility's board of directors.

[0029] Furthermore, if the door to the management room remains unable to be opened even after a predetermined time has elapsed, the input / output control unit 21a can infer that a predetermined person is absent and send an alarm signal to rooms other than those occupied by the predetermined person.

[0030] In addition, when an alarm is sent via the housing information panel 11 installed in a room other than the fire detection room to prompt the occupant to check the content of the alarm sent by the residential building receiver 21 installed in the management room, it can also notify the occupant that the electric lock in the management room is open and that entry into the management room is possible.

[0031] As described above, by realizing the function of transmitting an alarm signal, people in rooms other than the room where the fire was detected can quickly learn that a fire has been detected in the facility and that they should rush to the control room and check the content of the alarm from dwelling building receiver 21. Therefore, a system can be realized that allows anyone, other than the manager in the control room and the resident in the room where the fire was detected, to quickly take appropriate action in accordance with the content of the alarm from dwelling building receiver 21.

[0032] Next, the mechanism by which anyone can quickly take appropriate action in accordance with the content of the alert from the residential building receiver 21 in the fire monitoring system according to this embodiment 1 will be explained in detail based on the specific layout of the facility that is the target of fire monitoring.

[0033] 2 is an explanatory diagram showing the layout of the first section of the facility that is the subject of fire monitoring by the fire monitoring system according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure. The first section in FIG. 2 corresponds to the first floor of the facility that is the subject of fire monitoring, and includes a control room and seven rooms, Room 1 to Room 7.

[0034] Although the second to Nth sections on the second to Nth floors are not shown in the figure, each of the rooms in the second to Nth sections is connected to the dwelling unit receiver 21 installed in the control room of the first section via signal lines L(2) to L(N), as shown in Figure 1 above, and is centrally controlled by the dwelling unit receiver 21.

[0035] A residential information panel 11(n) and a fire detector 12(n) connected to the residential information panel 11(n) are installed in each room n (n is an integer between 1 and 7) in the first section. Meanwhile, a residential building receiver 21 is installed in the control room.

[0036] The dwelling unit receiver 21 is connected to the home information panels 11(1) to 11(7) in the first section via signal line L(1), and can perform overall control of the home information panels 11(1) to 11(7). Therefore, when a fire is detected by the fire detector 12(n), the dwelling unit receiver 21 can perform overall control by receiving a fire signal transmitted from the home information panel 11(n) via signal line L(1).

[0037] Fig. 3 is an explanatory diagram showing a state in which a fire has broken out in room 2 of the first section in the layout of Fig. 2 shown above as a specific example of embodiment 1 of the present disclosure. In Fig. 2, room 2 in the first section corresponds to the fire detection room, and when a fire is detected by fire detector 12(2) in room 2, a fire signal is transmitted from the home information panel 11(n) to the dwelling unit receiver 21 via signal line L(1).

[0038] When the dwelling unit receiver 21 receives a fire signal from the fire detector 12(2), it transmits an alarm signal via the signal line L(1) to rooms 1 and 3-7 other than the room where the fire was detected, to prompt them to check the content of the alarm sent by the dwelling unit receiver 21 installed in the management office.

[0039] As shown in Fig. 1, the dwelling unit receiver 21 can also perform centralized control over the home information panels 11 installed in each of the residences in the second to Nth sections in addition to the first section via signal lines L(2) to L(N). Therefore, the dwelling unit receiver 21 can transmit an alarm signal to prompt confirmation of the content of the alarm from the dwelling unit receiver 21 installed in the management room to the home information panels 11 installed in all of the rooms other than the one where the fire was detected.

[0040] As a result, even if no one is present in room 2 of the first section, people in other rooms can quickly know that a fire has been detected in another room in the room in which they are present and that they should check the content of the alarm sent by the dwelling unit receiver 21 installed in the management room.

[0041] When the dwelling unit receiver 21 receives a fire signal from the fire detector 12(2) in the living room 2, it opens the electric lock 22 by panic opening, and anyone can enter the control room and check the contents of the alarm sent by the dwelling unit receiver 21. However, there is a risk that people may not be aware that the electric lock 22 opens when it is panic opened.

[0042] Therefore, by further installing a response action instruction panel 23 outside the management room that can be controlled by the dwelling unit receiver 21, the dwelling unit receiver 21 can notify the dwelling unit of the work that should be carried out upon receiving a fire signal via the response action instruction panel 23, including the fact that the electric lock 22 is in the open state.

[0043] Therefore, anyone who rushes to the control room can easily see the display content notified by the response action instruction panel 23 installed outside the control room, and will know that they can enter the control room.They can also quickly take appropriate action according to the situation, such as checking the notification content using the dwelling unit receiver 21 and calling 119.

[0044] The notification content from the dwelling building receiver 21 may include the following display output. "Please check the residence that reported the fire." Please check the location of the fire using the fire receiver (building receiver) and report it to the fire department. "Please shout loudly to evacuate the residents."

[0045] Specific procedures such as how to confirm the location of the fire and how to report it to the fire department are also announced by the dwelling building receiver 21. Therefore, anyone can easily check the contents of the announcement from the dwelling building receiver 21, and a system is realized that allows anyone, other than the manager and the resident who detected the fire, to quickly take appropriate action.

[0046] In addition, a countermeasure action instruction panel 23 may also be installed around the dwelling unit receiver 21 in the control room, and the response content may be displayed on the countermeasure action instruction panel 23 instead of the dwelling unit receiver 21.

[0047] The features of the fire monitoring system according to the first embodiment described above can be summarized as follows: Feature 1: The system has a function to send an alert via a residential information panel installed in a room other than the one where the fire was detected, prompting the user to check the content of the alert sent by the residential receiver installed in the management office. This allows anyone in the facility to take a swift initial response to a detected fire based on the content of the alert sent by the residential receiver.

[0048] Feature 2: By installing an additional response action instruction panel outside the control room that can be controlled centrally by the residential building receiver, an optional function is realized that notifies the user of the work that needs to be done when a fire signal is received.

[0049] Therefore, when a fire signal is sent from any room, anyone outside the control room can easily and quickly determine what action to take, and can take quick initial action in response to a detected fire, such as checking the content of the alarm on the residential building receiver in the control room or calling 119.

[0050] In particular, in facilities where there is no manager on-site, even if a fire is detected when the resident who detected the fire and the manager are not present, anyone will be able to quickly take appropriate action, and a system can be established to quickly respond to fires and implement measures to prevent the fire from spreading.

[0051] Here is a supplementary explanation for when the residential building receiver is a P-type residential building receiver. When the residential building receiver is a P-type residential building receiver, a configuration combining an intercom system and a P-type residential building receiver is used. In this configuration, in the event of a fire, the P-type residential building receiver sends a fire signal to the intercom system, which then opens the electric lock in the control room.

[0052] The P-type residential building receiver displays fires in multiple residences in a single alert zone (district window), making it impossible to identify the residence where the fire occurred. On the other hand, the intercom master unit (control room master unit) of the intercom system displays the room where the fire occurred. Therefore, the P-type residential building receiver can not only confirm the alert zone, but also display a message urging the user to check the intercom master unit and provide specific instructions on how to check it. The alert zone may coincide with the nth division mentioned above, or it may be a different range.

[0053] In addition, when the P-type residential building receiver notifies the user to confirm the alert area, it may display a diagram of the alert area, or it may prompt the user to check a diagram (paper medium) of the alert area installed near the residential building receiver.

[0054] The fire monitoring system of the first embodiment, which has the above-mentioned feature 1 or has feature 2 in addition to feature 1, can also be applied to a configuration that combines an intercom system and a P-type residential building receiver.

[0055] In other words, even in a configuration that combines an intercom system and a P-type residential building receiver, it is possible to incorporate feature 1, which realizes the function of issuing an alarm in each room to encourage confirmation of the alarm content from the residential building receiver installed in the management room, and feature 2, which realizes the function of notifying of the details of the work that should be done when a fire signal is received, by further installing a response action instruction panel outside the management room that can be controlled in an integrated manner by the residential building receiver.

[0056] Furthermore, in a fire monitoring system in which fire detectors are connected to wiring extending from a P-type or R-type fire receiver, which is a residential building receiver installed in a control room, to each room, and centralized monitoring is performed by the fire receiver, a display panel may be installed in each room instead of the residential building receiver, and an alarm signal may be sent to prompt confirmation of the content of the alarm from the fire receiver installed in the control room. In this case, the fire receiver also switches the electric lock in the control room to the open state. [Explanation of symbols]
