Solution Overview

Problem

Current fire explosion suppression systems and CBRN systems lack an integrated, automatic solution to neutralize halogenic acids and chemical warfare agents, leading to potential harm to humans and the environment due to delayed and manual chemical delivery.

Innovation Solution

An automatic discharge system integrated with fire extinguishing, explosion suppression, and CBRN detection and filtration systems, which uses a chemical mixture of metal oxide and sodium bicarbonate to absorb halogenic acid effects and neutralize chemical threats, activated automatically by sensors without manual intervention.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If manual decontamination agents are used, then the system can neutralize halogenic acids, but the delivery is delayed and requires manual intervention

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveneutralization effectivenessVSAvoiddelivery delay
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The decontamination agent is pre-loaded into the fire extinguisher cylinder alongside the extinguishing agent. When the system is activated, the decontamination agent is automatically discharged simultaneously with the extinguishing agent, eliminating the need for manual intervention and reducing delivery delay.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The decontamination agent is integrated into the fire extinguisher system by combining it with the extinguishing agent in the same cylinder. This merging allows both substances to be discharged together through the same delivery mechanism, ensuring simultaneous delivery and eliminating manual steps.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

2Object-affected harmful factors

If decontamination agents are added to extinguishing agents, then halogenic acid effect is neutralized, but the system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvehalogenic acid harmVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The decontamination agent is merged with the extinguishing agent in the same cylinder, allowing both functions to be achieved through a single discharge action. This integration simplifies the overall system by eliminating separate decontamination delivery mechanisms while still providing comprehensive protection against halogenic acid harm.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Reliability

If existing fire extinguishing systems are used, then fire suppression is achieved, but halogenic acids are not neutralized

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvefire suppression effectivenessVSAvoidhalogenic acid emission
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The decontamination agent is combined with the extinguishing agent in the same cylinder, allowing the system to simultaneously achieve fire suppression and neutralization of halogenic acids. This dual-function approach eliminates the need for separate decontamination systems while addressing both fire safety and environmental protection concerns.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)
