It relates to fire-resistant composite curtain systems. The invention is particularly suitable for industrial facilities, energy production areas, and similar applications. Fires occurring in the environment and noise generated under normal operating conditions 10 Modular, portable, demountable and reassemblable designed for the purpose of controlling their effects. It includes reusable curtain structures. The system can withstand temperatures up to 600 °C. Continuous, silicone-coated metal wire resistant to momentary flame contact up to 1200 °C. Made from reinforced glass fiber-based materials, suitable for indoor and outdoor use. It can be used as a fire barrier and noise insulation element. 15 State of the Art Nowadays, fire safety in industrial facilities is generally achieved through fixed walls and doors. This is provided by systems. However, such systems do not provide a permanent solution for the field. This leads to fragmentation and provides flexibility in production and maintenance activities. This reduces the cost and time of constructing fixed fire protection and isolation structures. It is a receiver. Furthermore, existing systems adapt to curved or variable geometries. It is unable to provide this. The current technology includes a section titled "Fire-proof acoustic curtain for containing noise," Patent EP 3 379 006 A1 concerns glass used in underground or industrial areas.

Smooth winding and unwinding is ensured thanks to the combined gap areas. It also functions as a barrier against fire and smoke spread. All three systems above offer high fire resistance and acoustic or partitioning functions. 15 Firstly, these types of systems have limitations in terms of weight and portability. There are (especially in the context of modular / portable use). Secondly, this type due to the assembly, connection, sealing and certification requirements of the systems In field implementation, complexity and cost may increase. Thirdly, modularity or Even if designed with reuse in mind, fire resistance and acoustic performance are 20. A balance must be struck between ease of mechanical assembly and safety; this balance must be achieved in every This may not be fully achieved in this situation. On the other hand, fire-resistant drywall is frequently used for this purpose in industry. systems, indoor environments with high humidity and vapor, and outdoor air with precipitation. It is not resistant to the conditions. Monoblock structures used in active fire systems 25 Because it is rigid, it requires space-consuming housings and heavy mechanical systems. This The invention is a portable, modular, flexible, and acoustically performing fire-resistant device. It offers solutions to these problems with durable curtain systems. 3 Purpose of the Invention The purpose of the invention is fire safety and noise control in industrial areas.

Detailed Description of the Invention The invention aims to provide fire safety and noise control in industrial facilities. a modular, portable, detachable and flexible structure used for this purpose. It is a composite curtain system. The system consists of a touch-sensitive connecting strip (hook-and-pile). fastener) (1), wire reinforced, silicone coated glass fiber woven layer (2), ceramic wool and glass fiber felt layer (3) and optional heavy sound barrier It includes layer (4). Figure 1 shows the layered structure and clamping elements of the invention. 20 As shown in Figure 1, each curtain element is multi-layered. It has a composite structure. Its outer surface is resistant to high temperatures and direct flames. Silicone-coated, metal wire reinforced glass resistant to contact and mechanical stresses. There is a fireproof woven layer (2) made of fiber. The woven layer (2) is in the form of fabric. The metal wire (2) in this fabric layer is 25 Reinforcement provides high resistance to mechanical shocks and friction.
