Description

Tank-type electric vehicle fire response system

[0001] The present invention relates to a tank-type electric vehicle fire response system, and more specifically, when a fire is predicted or occurs in an electric vehicle, the system delays the temperature rise of a battery as much as possible until firefighters specializing in fire suppression arrive, thereby suppressing the spread of the fire as much as possible.

[0002] In particular, the present invention relates to a tank-type electric vehicle fire response system that can be installed in a non-embedded manner without changing the structure and facilities of a parking space where an electric vehicle is parked, and that is installed and operated in a manner compatible with the structure and facilities of an existing parking space, thereby enabling efficient installation and operation.

[0003] In recent years, as environmental issues caused by fossil fuel-powered internal combustion engine vehicles have become a global issue, demand for eco-friendly vehicles has increased, and in particular, battery-powered electric vehicles are becoming widely popular.

[0004] Early electric vehicles raised issues regarding their driving performance, such as battery performance and lifespan. However, advancements in related technologies have led to improvements in many areas, and electric vehicles with sufficient driving performance to meet consumer needs are currently being developed and sold.

[0005] However, despite these technological advancements, electric vehicles that run on batteries inevitably face the risk of fire due to battery defects, overcharging, external impacts, etc., and in particular, once a fire breaks out, it is very difficult to extinguish the fire before the electric vehicle is completely consumed due to thermal runaway of the battery.

[0006] Meanwhile, due to the increasing popularity of electric vehicles, the installation of electric vehicle chargers is expanding not only in above-ground parking lots but also in underground parking lots of buildings (e.g., apartment buildings).

[0007] However, as previously explained, due to the inherent nature of electric vehicles using batteries, there is always a risk of fire. If a fire were to break out in an electric vehicle charging in an underground parking lot, the damage would be greater than in an above-ground parking lot. Specifically, the following problems exist.

[0008] First, since the fire occurred in a parking lot, there are many parked vehicles, and the distance between vehicles parked next to each other is particularly short, so in the event of a fire, the fire can easily spread to vehicles parked next to it.

[0009] In particular, electric vehicles require separate charging facilities, and these electric vehicle charging facilities are installed in large numbers in a concentrated area of ​​the parking lot. In addition, electric vehicles for battery charging are often parked side by side. Therefore, if a fire breaks out in one electric vehicle, it can spread to the electric vehicles next to it, eventually rapidly spreading to the entire area or even beyond.

[0010] Second, because fires caused by thermal runaway of batteries occur in an instant, it is difficult to report them quickly and respond accordingly.

[0011] Third, because the smoke generated by the fire makes it difficult to determine the exact situation, it is difficult to report the fire accurately, and this may make it difficult to respond smoothly when putting out the fire.

[0012] For example, if the person reporting the fire cannot determine whether the vehicle is a regular vehicle or an electric vehicle due to smoke, the firefighters dispatched to extinguish the fire will carry fire-fighting tools for regular vehicles. However, if they later determine that the vehicle is an electric vehicle, they will have to go out again, prepare fire-fighting tools for electric vehicles, and then re-enter, which can cause problems such as a significant delay in fire response.

[0013] Fourth, although real-time monitoring technology is applied to electric vehicle charging facilities, if a fire breaks out, no special measures can be taken until professional firefighters arrive.

[0014] Of course, most underground parking lots are equipped with sprinklers to suppress fires, but in the case of electric vehicles, it is difficult to suppress fires with sprinklers alone, so in most cases, fires cannot be extinguished until firefighters with specialized knowledge arrive.

[0015] Fifth, since the fire occurred in an underground parking lot, smoke from the fire cannot be discharged, which not only makes it difficult to enter the area to put out the fire, but also causes problems such as suffocation due to smoke.

[0016] To solve these problems, the prior art document, Republic of Korea Patent No. 10-2530655, 'Automobile Fire Suppression System and Method' (hereinafter referred to as 'prior art'), prevents the fire from spreading by causing the target vehicle to be submerged in water to a certain height when a lift buried in the ground rises when a fire occurs.

[0017] However, since the prior art is installed in a way that components such as the elevator are buried in the parking lot floor, additional costs may arise due to structural changes in the parking lot.

[0018] Moreover, in order to install equipment such as prior art, the structure of the underground parking lot or various existing equipment must be changed, and in some cases, installation itself may be impossible due to safety issues in the building, licensing issues related to the construction, or opposition from building owners and residents.

[0019] In addition, even if it is possible to install equipment similar to the prior art, there is a problem that users of the existing underground parking lot will experience inconvenience for a long time during the process of changing the structure of the existing underground parking lot.

[0020] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention aims to provide a tank-type electric vehicle fire response system that can suppress the spread of fire as much as possible by delaying the temperature rise of the battery as much as possible until firefighters specializing in fire suppression arrive when a fire in an electric vehicle is predicted or a fire occurs.

[0021] In particular, the present invention aims to provide a tank-type electric vehicle fire response system that can be installed in a non-embedded manner without changing the structure and facilities of a parking space where an electric vehicle is parked, and that can be installed and operated in a manner compatible with the structure and facilities of an existing parking space, thereby enabling efficient installation and operation.

[0022] In addition, the present invention aims to provide a tank-type electric vehicle fire response system that can effectively suppress the spread of fire by responding quickly with a structure and method optimized for electric vehicles, minimize factors that hinder firefighters during the fire suppression process, and provide significant assistance to firefighters in fire suppression.

[0023] In order to achieve the above object, the tank-type electric vehicle fire response system according to the present invention includes: a fire confirmation unit that confirms the occurrence or prediction of a fire in an electric vehicle parked in a parking space; a fire response water tank unit that is installed so as to be placed on the ground along the edge of the parking space and, when operated, is configured to rise from the floor of the corresponding parking space by a certain height to confine the electric vehicle parked in the corresponding parking space and supply and store fire-fighting water therein; and a fire response control unit that, when the occurrence or prediction of a fire in an electric vehicle parked in the corresponding parking space is confirmed through the fire confirmation unit, operates the fire response water tank unit to flood the battery of the corresponding electric vehicle.

[0024] In addition, the fire response water tank unit may include a pop-up water tank module configured to store the water tank unit so that it is normally placed on the ground and to deploy the stored water tank unit upwards by a certain height from the ground when in operation; and a floor-type sprinkler that supplies fire fighting water into the deployed water tank unit when the pop-up water tank module is in operation.

[0025] In addition, the pop-up water tank module includes a guard frame that is installed to be placed on the ground along the edge of the parking area and configured to store the water tank portion; the water tank portion is formed in a tube shape and is stored on the upper part of the guard frame in a normally folded state, and can be expanded and deployed upward during operation.

[0026] In addition, the guard frame may include a support frame installed to be placed on the ground along the edge of the parking area; and a storage frame configured to extend to the upper portion of the support frame and store a water tank; and the floor-type sprinkler may include a fire-fighting water supply pipe formed to pass through the support frame and continue to the parking area; and an injection port configured at the end of the fire-fighting water supply pipe to spray fire-fighting water into the parking area.

[0027] In addition, the guard frame may further include an inclined frame configured such that the upper end of the storage frame is connected from the floor surface of the parking area in the direction in which the electric vehicle enters and exits the parking area.

[0028] In addition, the storage frame is configured to have an opening portion that opens upward, and the guard frame may further include a protective cover installed to open and close the opening portion of the storage frame.

[0029] In addition, the protective cover is configured to be rotatable relative to the storage frame, and can close the opening of the storage frame by its own weight in normal times and open by the water tank portion that is deployed during operation.

[0030] In addition, the tank may include at least one of: a plurality of flame-retardant vertical tubes configured to be deployed upward during operation; a flame-retardant membrane configured to connect two adjacent flame-retardant vertical tubes among the plurality of flame-retardant vertical tubes; and a flame-retardant side tube configured to connect two adjacent flame-retardant vertical tubes among the plurality of flame-retardant vertical tubes.

[0031] In addition, the fire confirmation unit is linked to an electric vehicle charger that charges the battery of the electric vehicle and a battery management system of the electric vehicle, and when deterioration of the battery is confirmed, predicts that a fire will occur in the electric vehicle, and the fire response control unit operates a fire response tank unit when the fire confirmation unit predicts a fire and simultaneously transmits an evacuation guidance message according to the predicted fire occurrence through a guidance speaker installed in a parking area, and can transmit a notification message to at least one of a user terminal used by an owner of the electric vehicle, an administrator terminal or management server used by an administrator who manages a parking lot including the parking area or a building including the parking lot, and a server of a fire response agency.

[0032] In addition, it further includes a path guidance unit formed to extend from the entrance of the parking lot including the parking area to the parking area; and the fire response control unit can operate the path guidance unit to guide firefighters to the location of the electric vehicle when a fire occurrence or fire prediction is confirmed in an electric vehicle parked in the parking area through the fire confirmation unit.

[0033] By the above-described solution, the present invention has the advantage of being able to suppress the spread of fire as much as possible by delaying the temperature rise of the battery as much as possible until firefighters specializing in fire suppression arrive when a fire in an electric vehicle is predicted or a fire occurs.

[0034] In particular, the present invention has the advantage of being able to promptly provide guidance and report to vehicle owners, building managers, fire departments, etc., and to respond by quickly cooling the battery of the target electric vehicle, etc., since it predicts that a fire will occur and carries out response procedures when a fire cause is detected in the electric vehicle.

[0035] In addition, the present invention can be installed in a non-embedded manner without changing the structure and facilities of a parking space where an electric vehicle is parked, and can be installed and operated in a manner compatible with the structure and facilities of an existing parking space, thereby having the advantage of enabling efficient installation and operation without restrictions on the installation location.

[0036] In particular, the present invention has the advantage of being able to quickly suppress the rise in battery temperature of the electric vehicle through rapid deployment and water supply of a water tank for confining the target electric vehicle.

[0037] In addition, the present invention has the advantage of being able to effectively prevent fire from occurring or, even if a fire does occur, prevent it from spreading to adjacent parked vehicles by submerging the battery of the target electric vehicle in water.

[0038] In addition, the present invention has the advantage of preventing the surrounding environment from being polluted by the fire fighting water used to extinguish a fire by preventing the fire fighting water supplied to the water tank from leaking to the outside.

[0039] In addition, the present invention has the advantage of being able to effectively suppress the spread of fire by responding quickly with a structure and method optimized for electric vehicles, minimizing factors that hinder firefighters during the fire suppression process, and providing significant assistance to firefighters in fire suppression.

[0040] In particular, the present invention has the advantage of enabling rapid rescue of passengers, etc. who may be present, by ensuring a view of the interior of the target electric vehicle even when the water tank is deployed.

[0041] In addition, the present invention has the advantage of effectively assisting the entry of security personnel through a path guidance unit that guides the vehicle from the entrance of the underground parking lot to the parking space where the target electric vehicle is parked.

[0043] Figure 2 is a usage diagram of Figure 1.

[0044] FIG. 3 is a drawing showing one embodiment of the pop-up tank module of FIG. 1.

[0045] Figure 4 is a drawing showing another embodiment of Figure 1.

[0046] Examples of a tank-type electric vehicle fire response system according to the present invention can be applied in various ways, and the most preferred embodiment will be described below with reference to the attached drawings.

[0047] First, there are several conditions for installing the tank-type electric vehicle fire response system of the present invention in an underground parking lot within a building, particularly an underground parking lot within a residential building such as an apartment complex.

[0048] First, existing building fire-fighting equipment must be utilized to the maximum extent possible.

[0049] Second, when installing and operating, the safety and convenience of residents using the underground parking lot must be given top priority.

[0050] Third, the structure of existing facilities, especially buildings, must be maintained as is, and any modifications or alterations must be kept to a minimum.

[0051] Fourth, there should be no obstacles to the firefighters' entry and suppression process when fighting a fire.

[0052] Fifth, the fire spread prevention equipment must not cause damage or destruction to the target vehicle or vehicles parked around it.

[0053] Sixth, the fire spread prevention equipment must not interfere with the operation of existing building fire protection equipment.

[0054] Based on these conditions, we will examine in detail the tank-type electric vehicle fire response system according to the present invention.

[0055] FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing one embodiment of a tank-type electric vehicle fire response system according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a usage state diagram of FIG. 1.

[0056] Referring to Fig. 1, the tank-type electric vehicle fire response system (A) includes a fire confirmation unit (100), a fire response tank unit (200), and a fire response control unit (300).

[0057] The fire confirmation unit (100) confirms the occurrence or prediction of a fire in an electric vehicle parked in a parking space.

[0058] For example, the fire confirmation unit (100) can predict the occurrence of a fire by checking the temperature of the battery, charge / discharge current, etc. during charging in conjunction with an electric vehicle charger (not shown).

[0059] As another example, the fire confirmation unit (100) may include an infrared sensor, a CCD camera, etc., and may determine whether a fire has occurred by analyzing a thermal image measured by the infrared sensor or an image captured by the CCD camera.

[0060] The fire response water tank (200) is installed so as to be placed on the ground along the edge of the parking area (Pa), and when in operation, as shown in FIG. 2, it rises a certain height from the floor of the parking area to confine an electric vehicle parked in the parking area and is configured to supply and store fire fighting water inside it. This will be described in more detail below.

[0061] When the fire response control unit (300) confirms the occurrence or prediction of a fire in an electric vehicle parked in the corresponding parking space through the fire confirmation unit (100), it can control the fire response tank unit (200) to operate so that the battery of the corresponding electric vehicle is submerged. The specific detailed configuration and control method can be applied in various ways according to the needs of those skilled in the art, and thus, it is not limited to a specific one.

[0062] Meanwhile, the fire response tank (200) described above may include a pop-up tank module (210) and a floor-type sprinkler (220) as shown in FIG. 1.

[0063] The pop-up water tank module (210) can be stored so that the water tank part (212) is placed on the ground as shown in FIG. 1 in normal times, and can be configured so that the stored water tank part (212) is deployed upwards from the ground to a certain height as shown in FIG. 2 during operation (when a fire is predicted or a fire occurs).

[0064] The floor-type sprinkler (220) is for supplying fire fighting water into the inside of the water tank (212) that is deployed when the pop-up water tank module (210) is in operation, and may include a fire fighting water supply pipe (221) connected to a tank or fire fighting water pipe in which fire fighting water is stored, and a spray port (222) that sprays fire fighting water supplied through the fire fighting water supply pipe (221) upward.

[0065] Referring to FIG. 2, the pop-up water tank module (210) is installed to be placed on the ground along the edge of the parking area (Pa) and may include a guard frame (211) configured to store a water tank portion (212) on the upper portion.

[0066] In addition, the water tank (212) is formed in a tube shape of a flame-retardant material and can be stored on top of the guard frame (211) in a normally folded state, and can be expanded and deployed upward during operation.

[0067] At this time, the water tank (212) can be expanded by gas supplied from an air tank configured separately outside or inside the guard frame (211), and can also be configured to be expanded by various other methods.

[0068] Additionally, the tank (212) may include a plurality of flame-retardant vertical tubes (212a) configured to be deployed upward when in operation, and the flame-retardant vertical tubes (212a) may be arranged at each corner of the parking area (Pa).

[0069] And, the neighboring flame-retardant vertical tube (212a) can be configured to be connected to a flame-retardant film (212b) or a flame-retardant side tube (not shown).

[0070] Meanwhile, as previously explained, the fire confirmation unit (100) is linked to the electric vehicle charger that charges the electric vehicle's battery and the electric vehicle's battery management system, and can predict that a fire will occur in the electric vehicle when deterioration of the battery is confirmed.

[0071] Accordingly, when a fire is predicted to occur in the fire confirmation unit, the fire response control unit (300) operates the fire response tank unit (200) and simultaneously transmits an evacuation guidance message according to the predicted fire occurrence through a guidance speaker (not shown) installed in the parking area (Pa), thereby warning people in the parking area or nearby that a fire may occur and guiding them to evacuate.

[0072] In addition, the fire response control unit (300) can transmit a notification message about the current situation to a user terminal used by an owner of an electric vehicle in which a fire is expected to occur, an administrator terminal or management server used by an administrator who manages a parking lot including the parking area or a building including the parking lot, a server of a fire response agency, etc.

[0073] Meanwhile, in the case of an underground parking lot, if a fire breaks out, the resulting smoke cannot be discharged to the outside and remains inside the underground parking lot, which can make it difficult to secure visibility.

[0074] Accordingly, the present invention can form a path guidance section (not shown) that extends from the entrance of an underground parking lot including a parking area (Pa) to the parking area.

[0075] The path guidance unit can be installed on the floor or ceiling of an underground parking lot, and can include LED lights that light up when in operation.

[0076] Accordingly, when the fire response control unit (300) confirms through the fire confirmation unit (100) that a fire has occurred or is predicted to occur in an electric vehicle parked in the corresponding parking area, the fire response control unit (300) can operate the path guidance unit to accurately guide firefighters to the location of the electric vehicle.

[0077] Below, we will look at the fire response tank (200) discussed above in more detail.

[0078] FIG. 3 is a drawing showing one embodiment of the pop-up tank module of FIG. 1.

[0079] Referring to FIG. 3, the guard frame (211) may include a support frame (211a) installed to be placed on the ground along the edge of the parking area (Pa), and a storage frame (211b) configured to extend to the upper portion of the support frame (211a) and store the water tank (212), and the storage frame (211b) may be formed to be opened upward.

[0080] Accordingly, when the water tank (212) is operated by the fire response control unit (300), the flame-retardant vertical tube (212a) expands upward as shown on the right side of FIG. 3, and can be deployed in the form of a water tank as shown in FIG. 2.

[0081] In addition, the fire water supply pipe (211) of the floor-type sprinkler (220) described in FIG. 2 can be formed to pass through the support frame (211a) and lead to the parking area (Pa).

[0082] In addition, a spray nozzle (222) configured at the end of the fire fighting water supply pipe (211) to spray fire fighting water into the parking area (Pa) can be configured.

[0083] Figure 4 is a drawing showing another embodiment of Figure 1.

[0084] Referring to FIG. 4, the guard frame (211) may further include a slope frame (211c).

[0085] For example, when an electric vehicle enters a parking area (Pa) for parking or charging, or when a parked electric vehicle starts and moves, it has no choice but to pass through a guard frame (211) installed along the edge of the parking area (Pa), and at this time, deformation, damage, or breakage may occur in the guard frame (211).

[0086] To prevent this, as shown in Fig. 1, by installing an inclined frame (211c) in the direction in which the electric vehicle enters and exits the corresponding parking space (Pa), deformation, damage, or breakage of the guard frame (211) can be minimized.

[0087] For example, the inclined frame (211c) can be configured so that the upper end of the storage frame (211b) extends from the bottom surface of the parking area (Pa).

[0088] And, as described above, the storage frame (211b) can be configured to form an opening (not shown) that is open upward.

[0089] Accordingly, foreign substances, etc. may enter the interior of the storage frame (211b) through the normal opening, and as a result, damage may occur to the flame-retardant vertical tube (212a) of the water tank (212), and a situation may arise where the water tank (212) cannot be deployed during operation.

[0090] Accordingly, the present invention can install a protective cover (211d) to open and close the opening of the storage frame (211b).

[0091] The protective cover (211d) can be configured to be rotatable on the storage frame (211b) as shown in FIG. 4.

[0092] Accordingly, the protective cover (211d) can be kept closed at the opening of the storage frame (211b) by its own weight as shown in the upper part of FIG. 4 in normal times, and can be opened by the flame-retardant vertical tube (212a) of the water tank (212) that is deployed during operation.

[0093] Therefore, the protection of the tank (212) and the opening of the flame-retardant vertical tube (212a) can be smoothly performed without using complex devices.

[0094] The above describes the tank-type electric vehicle fire response system according to the present invention. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that the technical configuration of the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without altering the technical spirit or essential features of the invention.

[0095] Therefore, the embodiments described above should be understood as illustrative in all respects and not limiting.
