Bidirectional self-supply type fire extinguishing system of helicopter
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of power grid forest fire prevention and control, in particular to a bidirectional self-supply type fire extinguishing system for a helicopter.
Background
The adoption of the helicopter for fire extinguishment is an important fire extinguishment mode for forest fires, the helicopter has high flying speed, the air flight is not limited by road traffic conditions, and the fire extinguishment can be carried out more timely. The helicopter is usually required to carry water and fire extinguishing agents for fire extinguishing so as to improve the fire extinguishing efficiency and prevent the reignition of the mountain fire, and the large-area mountain fire can be effectively extinguished.
However, helicopter addition of fire extinguishing agents is limited by the following conditions: (1) when the helicopter is hovered, the power is maximum, the generated strong wind easily causes the light objects on the ground to fly and roll up, and the broken stones are lifted, and the station personnel below the large helicopter is strictly prohibited to operate and add water; (2) the bucket has strict requirement on the depth of a water taking point for water taking (3) the requirement is that the water taking point is close to a fire scene, and the flight clearance condition is better.
The existing scheme adopts a built-in fire extinguishing agent automatic adding device of a helicopter, namely, a dissolved liquid fire extinguishing agent is directly carried by the helicopter and then is conveyed to a bucket to be mixed with water for fire extinguishing. However, there are the following problems:
(1) the fire extinguishing agent has conductivity and certain corrosivity, and can cause short circuit or corrosion of a helicopter control circuit connector when the fire extinguishing agent drops into a helicopter cabin, so that the safety risk is high. It must be ensured that the whole addition process is completely leak-free;
(2) helicopter load resources and space resources are precious, and the fire extinguishing agent is added in a manner of dissolving in water, so that the weight is heavy. Due to the weight and space constraints, the amount of fire suppressant that can be carried into the helicopter nacelle is quite limited. The helicopter bucket consumes the extinguishing agent after extinguishing for 1-2 times, needs to be stopped on the ground to add the extinguishing agent, consumes long time and cannot continuously and quickly extinguish fire.
Helicopter fire extinguishing technical personnel have adopted schemes such as interim excavation, assembled water tank, all have great not enough:
(1) digging a pit on the ground to take water. The fire scene is uncertain in position, can only be used as a measure after a mountain fire occurs, needs temporary site selection, excavator scheduling and the like, and is long in time; the ground is required to be repaired after excavation, so that the helicopter has better take-off conditions and anti-leakage measures and poor practicability;
(2) the assembled fire extinguishing water agent mixing device directly takes mixed fire extinguishing water agent from a bucket in the assembled device, but has limited size, is difficult to apply to large buckets, has large assembling workload and long time, and can cause fire extinguishing delay.
(3) Because the bucket requires a large water depth and a large size for taking water, the capacity of the temporary device of the two schemes is more than 50 tons, but when the bucket takes water to the lowest water taking depth, a large amount of residual fire extinguishing water agents cannot be directly taken from high altitude by the bucket for extinguishing fire, the utilization rate of the fire extinguishing agent is low, and the problems of waste and recovery of the fire extinguishing agent are caused.
In conclusion, the existing mode of temporarily adding the fire extinguishing agent has the problems of poor practicability, poor universality of buckets with different sizes and low utilization rate of the fire extinguishing agent, and the development of the built-in fire extinguishing agent adding device of the helicopter are urgently needed.

Referring to fig. 1-2, the present embodiment provides a helicopter bidirectional self-supplied fire suppression system comprising: a bucket 10, a first water pumping system 20, a fire extinguishing agent dissolving tank 30 and a second water pumping system 40 which are hung on a helicopter; the first water pumping system 20 is communicated with the fire extinguishing agent dissolving tank 30, and is used for conveying the water in the bucket 10 into the fire extinguishing agent dissolving tank 30; the fire extinguishing agent dissolving tank 30 is used for containing and dissolving solid fire extinguishing agent raw materials to form liquid fire extinguishing agent; the two-pump water system 40 is communicated with the fire extinguishing agent dissolving tank 30, and is used for conveying the liquid fire extinguishing agent in the fire extinguishing agent dissolving tank 30 into the bucket 10.
When putting out a fire, the well-bucket 10 hangs on the helicopter, and fire extinguishing agent dissolves case 30 and puts in the helicopter cabin, and after filling water in the well-bucket 10, first pumping system 20 carries some water to the fire extinguishing agent dissolves the case 30 in, and fire extinguishing agent dissolves case 30 and places solid-state fire extinguishing agent raw and other materials (powdered) that add in advance, after dissolving in water, forms liquid fire extinguishing agent, and then second pumping system 40 carries liquid fire extinguishing agent to the well-bucket 10 in to mix evenly in well-bucket 10, the helicopter flies to the position of catching fire, emptys the water in the well-bucket 10 at the scene of a fire, puts out the fire.
In the scheme, the fire extinguishing agent dissolving tank 30 does not need to contain liquid fire extinguishing agent in advance, so that a large amount of load and space resources of the helicopter are saved, and the fire extinguishing efficiency of the helicopter is improved; and after the liquid fire extinguishing agent is formed in the fire extinguishing agent dissolving tank 30, the liquid fire extinguishing agent does not contact other facilities in the engine room, so that the condition that the helicopter is corroded due to the leakage of the fire extinguishing agent is avoided.
In a specific embodiment, the first water pumping system 20 includes a liquid return pipe 21 and a first water pump 22, the first water pump 22 is disposed in the bucket 10 and is communicated with the liquid return pipe 21, and the liquid return pipe 21 leads to the fire extinguishing agent dissolving tank 30. The first water pump 22 is used for pumping the water in the bucket 10 to the fire extinguishing agent dissolving tank 30, and the first water pump 22 can also be arranged in the helicopter cabin according to actual conditions so as to supply power. It should be noted that, the first water pump 22 herein does not need to transport all the water in the bucket 10 to the fire extinguishing agent dissolving tank 30, and the transported water amount can satisfy the requirement of dissolving the solid fire extinguishing agent raw material, and certainly, in order to fully dissolve and promote the uniformity of mixing the fire extinguishing agent in the bucket 10, more water can be properly transported to the fire extinguishing agent dissolving tank 30, so as to flush the fire extinguishing agent dissolving tank 30 clean and avoid corrosion.
The first water pump 22 may be powered from the cabin of the helicopter by a power line 23 of the first water pumping system, or may be powered by a power source stored in the bucket 10. Since the power supply of the first water pump 22 does not belong to the main improvement point of the present application, it will not be described in detail.
In a specific embodiment, the fire extinguishing agent dissolving tank 30 comprises a tank body 31, a water inlet 32 and a water outlet 33 provided on the tank body 31, and a stirring device 34 provided in the tank body 31; the liquid return pipe 21 communicates with the water inlet 32. The stirring device 34 is used to promote dissolution and improve work efficiency. The tank 31 is provided with a special closing door (not shown in the drawings) for filling the raw material of the fire extinguishing agent in a solid state into the tank 31, and then the closing door is closed to ensure sealing.
In a specific embodiment, the two-pump water system 40 includes a pump body connecting pipe 41, a second water pump 42 and a lower liquid pipe 43; one end of the pump body connecting pipe 41 is communicated with the water outlet 33, the other end is communicated with the water inlet of the second water pump 42, one end of the lower liquid pipe 43 is communicated with the water outlet of the second water pump 42, and the other end is communicated with the interior of the bucket 10. Wherein, the second water pump 42 selects a high-pressure diaphragm pump, so that the liquid fire extinguishing agent flowing into the bucket 10 from the lower liquid pipeline 43 has a certain flow velocity, thereby accelerating the mixing with water and ensuring the uniform mixing.
Preferably, a flow meter 44 is disposed on the lower liquid pipe 43, and the flow meter 44 is used for detecting the conveying flow rate. A liquid level meter is further arranged in the box body 31 so as to know the surplus of the liquid fire extinguishing agent in the box body 31. The control of each functional component of the bidirectional self-supply type fire extinguishing system for the helicopter provided by the embodiment can be directly controlled by a person, and a special control unit can also be arranged to facilitate the control of the person.
In a preferred embodiment, the first water pumping system 20 further comprises a float pipeline 24 and a float valve 25, one end of the float pipeline 24 is communicated with the bottom of the tank 31, and the other end is communicated with the liquid return pipeline 21, and a three-way structure is formed; the float valve 25 can move up and down by the buoyancy of the liquid surface in the float pipe 24, and blocks the liquid return pipe 21 when moving to the three-way structure. When the liquid level in the box 31 is low, the position of the float valve 25 is also low, and the float valve 25 blocks the three-way structure along with the rise of the liquid level, so that the liquid return pipeline 21 cannot continuously convey water into the box 31, and the first water pump 22 is automatically closed along with the rise of the pressure in the liquid return pipeline 21, and stops working. The arrangement of the structure can avoid the situation that the fire extinguishing agent overflows and leaks in the box body 31 or the pressure is too high to cause structural damage in the box body 31 due to the fact that the liquid supplementing is too much.
In a specific embodiment, the helicopter bidirectional self-supplied fire suppression system further comprises an integrated tank 50, and the fire suppressant dissolution tank 30 and the second water pump 42 are both disposed within the integrated tank 50. The integrated case 50 functions to integrate various components into one case, to be portable, and to further prevent leakage of the fire extinguishing agent. Further, a partition frame 51 for fixing the fire extinguishing agent dissolving tank 30 and the second water pump 42 is provided in the integrated tank 50. The partition frame 51 is determined according to the sizes of the fire extinguishing agent dissolving tank 30 and the second water pump 42 and the sizes of other related components, and functions to fix the respective components within the integration tank 50.
In a specific embodiment, the liquid return pipe 21 and the pump body connecting pipe 41 are both rubber pipes; the lower liquid pipe 43 is a flexible pipe with wear resistance, high temperature resistance and high pressure resistance.
Trial production trials prove that the scheme can avoid corrosion of the helicopter caused by leakage of the fire extinguishing agent; through setting up two-way self water supply agent, need not to carry the liquid fire extinguishing agent of mixture and go up the helicopter, only need carry the very light solid fire extinguishing agent raw and other materials of quality, directly mix the back on the helicopter, the backward flow goes into well-bucket 10, has practiced thrift a large amount of loads and space resource, has improved helicopter fire extinguishing system's efficiency. The device has the characteristics of good field application effect, simple structure, safety, reliability and convenience in operation and use.
