[0001] DESCRIPTION
[0002] TEMPERATURE REDUCING MECHANISM WITH GYROID STRUCTURE FOR AEROSOL BASED FIRE FIGHTING SYSTEMS
[0003] FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0004] The present invention relates to a mechanism that reduces the high temperature occurring during explosion by integrating into aerosol-based fire extinguishing systems.
[0005] In particular, the present invention relates to a temperature reducing mechanism with gyroid structure that reduces the aerosol temperature from 450°C to 90°C in the event of an explosion in aerosol-based fire extinguishing systems, eliminating the safety risk.
[0006] PRIOR ART
[0007] In current applications, aerosol-based fire extinguishing systems are used to quickly detect and suppress fire in closed areas. These systems are used in the defense industry (military vehicles and ammunition depots), industrial plants (machine rooms and production lines), in-vehicle fire extinguishing systems (land, air and sea vehicles) and electrical panel rooms. These systems detect fire with a thermal sensor / activation mechanism and spread the aerosol-based extinguishing agent into the environment with an explosion reaction. This agent effectively extinguishes the fire by cutting off the source of the fire from contact with oxygen.
[0008] In existing systems, the temperature of the aerosol often reaches up to 450°C, which poses a serious risk for both equipment and personnel safety. Figure 1 is the view of the aerosol-based fire extinguishing device used in the state of the art. In this system, additional components such as cardboard coating, cooling pills and perforated structures are used to reduce the temperature. However, these components cause both cost increase and system complexity. However, the temperature reduction performance cannot reach the desired level.The shortcomings of the current technique are briefly as follows:
[0009] High temperature problem of aerosol:
[0010] - At the moment of explosion, the aerosol temperature reaches up to 450°C.
[0011] This high temperature harms the personnel around during fire extinguishing. - It poses a significant security risk, especially in environments where personnel may be directly exposed, such as military vehicles and closed areas.
[0012] Complexity of additional components:
[0013] - In order to reduce the temperature, additional mechanical solutions such as cardboard coating, elevation layers, ball cooling pills and perforated elevation sections are used in existing systems.
[0014] - Additional components make the system complex, heavy and costly.
[0015] - Despite the use of additional components, the temperature reduction performance remains insufficient and the risk of personnel safety is still not eliminated.
[0016] Energy independence:
[0017] - Although existing systems generally provide energy independence with mechanical activation, safety problems continue because they do not provide temperature control.
[0018] As a result, the abovementioned problems and the problems that cannot be solved in the light of the state of the art have made it necessary to make an improvement in the relevant technical field.
[0019] BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0020] The present invention relates to a temperature reducing mechanism with gyroid structure for aerosol-based fire extinguishing systems in order to eliminate the abovementioned disadvantages and to bring new advantages to the relevant technical field.The main object of the present invention is to eliminate the safety problems caused by high temperatures by reducing the aerosol temperature that rises at the time of explosion.
[0021] Another object of the present invention is to reduce the complexity of the system and reduce costs by eliminating the use of additional components that are used to reduce the temperature in existing systems but are insufficient.
[0022] Another object of the present invention is to reveal an energy-independent structure with a mechanical activation mechanism.
[0023] In order to achieve all the aforementioned and all the objectives that will arise from the detailed description below, the present invention is a temperature reducing mechanism developed for aerosol-based fire extinguishing systems, characterized by comprising a temperature reducing element, which comprises a Gyroid structure that provides high surface area and air flow optimization, and which enables the aerosol temperature to be reduced to a safe level by directing the aerosol in a controlled manner within the said Gyroid structure during liquid-gas explosion.
[0024] In order to understand the advantages of the present invention with its structure and additional elements, it shall be evaluated with the following defined figures.

[0042] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0043] In this detailed description, the inventive novelty is described by means of examples only for clarifying the subject matter such that no limiting effect is created.
[0044] The present invention relates to a mechanism (10) that reduces the high temperature occurring during explosion by integrating into aerosol-based fire extinguishing systems. Figure 2 shows the view of said temperature reducing mechanism (10). The mechanism (10) comprises a closed chamber (11) providing pressure and flow management for controlled dispersion of the aerosol extinguishing agent into the environment, a solid fuel (12) for producing the aerosol extinguishing agent in the closed chamber (11), a temperature reducing element (13) comprising a Gyroid structure (131) which reduces the temperature of the aerosol from 450°C to 90°C, a thermal sensor (14) that mechanically activates the mechanism (10) when the ambient temperature exceeds a certain threshold, and a mechanical activator (15) that activates the mechanism (10) in case of fire by providing electrically independent mechanical operation.
[0045] The gyroid structure (131) of the temperature reducing element (13) provides effective cooling as it passes through the aerosol, with its high surface area and optimized air flow. At the moment of liquid-gas explosion, the aerosol is directed in a controlled manner within the gyroid structure (131) and heat is rapidly dissipated. Inthis way, the temperature of the aerosol is reduced from 450°C to 90°C, completely eliminating the risk of harm to surrounding personnel.
[0046] Gyroid structure (131) is a type of geometry that has a mathematically designed, three-dimensional, periodic surface structure. This structure, created by the rotation of a specific curved surface, offers a form optimized in both mechanical and physical properties. Gyroid structures (131) have a much larger surface area compared to flat surfaces. The high surface area allows for more effective heat dissipation and energy efficient temperature transfer.
[0047] Gyroid structure (131) ensures continuous and regular air flow. This provides a great advantage in directing the liquid-gas mixture. This structure helps distribute the aerosol evenly, preventing clogging or inefficient flow problems.
[0048] Since the gyroid structure (131) eliminates the need for other additional components used for temperature reduction in traditional systems, the structure has become more compact and lightweight. Removing complex additional components reduces production cost and shortens assembly time.
[0049] With the help of the mechanical activation mechanism (15), no energy source is needed. Gyroid structure (131) optimizes the cooling of the aerosol that comes into play after mechanical activation.
[0050] Detection of fire and activation of the system:
[0051] The thermal sensor (14) triggers the mechanical activator (15) when one of the determined temperature thresholds is reached. Since this activation occurs independently of electricity, the system does not need power supplies.
[0052] Chemical reaction and aerosol formation:
[0053] After activation, the solid fuel (12) enters into a chemical reaction and forms a fire extinguishing aerosol agent. A closed chamber (11) is used to spread the aerosol agent into the environment in a rapid and controlled manner. This chamber provides pressure and flow management.Passage of the aerosol through the Gyroid structure (131) and temperature reduction: The resulting aerosol is directed through the gyroid structure (131). With the high surface area of the gyroid structure (131) and air flow optimization, the temperature of the aerosol is reduced from 450°C to 90°C.
[0054] Spread of aerosol into the environment:
[0055] The cooled aerosol spreads into the environment in a controlled manner through the closed chamber (11) and the fire is quickly extinguished.
