Energy Storage Cabinet Firefighting Layout for Space-Saving Fire Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing outdoor energy storage systems face issues with firefighting systems that occupy large space, are prone to failure, and cannot effectively control fires, leading to significant losses.
Innovation Solution
The outdoor energy storage system cabinet incorporates a water firefighting system and a gas firefighting system arranged at the top of the cabinet, with a gas firefighting system being preferentially used to minimize device damage, and a water firefighting system as a backup, along with a top-mounted integrated air conditioner for temperature control, and a controller for automatic or manual firefighting activation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a traditional firefighting steel tank and main machine are used, then firefighting capability is provided, but the space occupied in the cabinet is large
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the firefighting function from the traditional steel tank and main machine configuration, integrating it directly into the cabinet structure. The firefighting pipe is arranged at the top part of the cabinet body interior, eliminating the need for separate large-volume steel tanks while maintaining firefighting capability.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transitions from a ground-level or separate-location firefighting system to a top-mounted system. By arranging the firefighting pipe at the top part of the cabinet body interior, it utilizes vertical space efficiently, reducing the footprint area occupied while maintaining effectiveness.
2Ease of operation
If a simple firefighting form is used, then the system is easy to operate, but the system is prone to failure and cannot control the fire
Solution Approach 1:
The patent incorporates a controller that can receive fire signals and activate the firefighting system automatically. The system is pre-configured with the controller and firefighting pipe, enabling automatic response when fire is detected, improving reliability without complicating operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent establishes a feedback loop where the controller receives fire signals (from detectors or manual input) and automatically activates the firefighting system. This closed-loop control ensures the system responds appropriately to actual fire conditions, improving fire control effectiveness while maintaining ease of operation through automation.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
The system ensures reliable firefighting, reduces space occupancy, enhances safety, and maintains system operation by prioritizing less damaging gas firefighting, while allowing for efficient space utilization and component protection.
Implementation Method 1
The gas firefighting pipe is provided with an air nozzle for ejecting firefighting gas generated by the firefighting fire extinguishing agent
Implementation Method 2
The water firefighting pipe is arranged at a top part of an interior of the cabinet body and is provided with a water nozzle
Implementation Method 3
an external air inlet of the top-mounted integrated air conditioner is connected to the cabinet body air outlet, and an external air outlet of the top-mounted integrated air conditioner is connected to the cabinet body air outlet
