Flame-Based Fire Extinguishing Control for Laser Machine Protection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing devices prone to fire, such as laser cutting and engraving machines, require constant human supervision to prevent fire spread due to the risk of significant property loss if not extinguished promptly.
Innovation Solution
A fire extinguishing system with flame feature detection and a controller that determines a processing mode based on flame characteristics, enabling automatic fire extinguishing or alarm generation to minimize human intervention and prevent fire spread.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Extent of automation
If automatic fire detection and extinguishing systems are implemented, then human supervision requirements are reduced, but system complexity and cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The device is divided into multiple preset portions with detectors placed at different locations. Each detector independently monitors its specific area, and the controller identifies the fire location based on which detector triggers first. This segmentation reduces the complexity of a single comprehensive system while achieving comprehensive coverage.
Solution Approach 2:
Fire extinguishing agents are pre-stored in the fire extinguishing apparatus, and the system is pre-configured with multiple detectors at preset portions. When fire is detected, the system immediately activates the pre-positioned extinguishing agents without requiring human intervention for preparation, enabling rapid automatic response.
2Reliability
If multiple detectors are placed at different portions of the device, then fire detection coverage is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The monitored space is divided into multiple preset portions, each equipped with a detector. This segmentation allows comprehensive fire detection coverage across different locations while maintaining manageable system complexity through modular detector units that can be independently positioned and configured.
