Fire Detector Base Terminal Integration
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional fire detectors require a relatively large space for connecting internal and external terminals due to their separate placement.
Innovation Solution
The fire detector base is designed with closely positioned external and internal terminals, where each internal terminal is connected to a corresponding external terminal, reducing the necessary space and allowing for a more compact design that can accommodate additional components or wiring.

If external connection terminals and internal terminals are provided separately from each other, then electrical connection function is achieved, but the space required for connecting terminals increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the external connection terminal and internal terminal into a single integrated terminal structure. The external connection terminal and internal terminal are positioned adjacent to each other on the same side of the base, allowing them to be electrically connected through a short connection path without requiring separate spaces, thereby reducing the overall space required for terminal connections while maintaining electrical connection functionality
Solution Approach 2:
The patent arranges terminals in a planar configuration on the base surface rather than distributing them in three-dimensional space. By positioning both external and internal terminals on the same plane (the lower surface of the base), the connection path is minimized and the space required is reduced compared to conventional vertical or distributed arrangements

AI summary
An object of the present invention is to provide a fire detector base and a fire detector, which can reduce a space to be needed for connecting an internal terminal and an external connection terminal. Respective internal terminals (60) correspond to external connection terminals (50) in one-to-one. Each of the internal terminals (60) is electrically connected to a target external connection terminal (50) that is one corresponding to each internal terminal (60) noted, of the external connection terminals (50). In each of the internal terminals (60), a distance from each internal terminal (60) noted to the target external connection terminal (50) is shorter than a distance from the each internal terminal (60) noted to any other one of the internal terminals (60), and shorter than a distance from the target external connection terminal (50) to any other one of the external connection terminals (50).
