Definitions
- This idea relates to a heat detector using an optical fiber as heat sensing wire.
- these heat detectors use an optical fiber which is composed of only a plastic core fusing at a low temperature (some 60 300° C ), an optical fiber with its core and clad layer made of plastic fusing at a low temperature, or an optical fiber with its core made of quartz glass which does not fuse at a low temperature and its clad layer made of plastic fusing at a low temperature.
- the ones composed of the plastic core alone or the core and clad layer, both being made of plastic fuse and open with heat from or flame of fire while in the case of the one composed of the quartz glass core and the plastic clad layer, only the clad layer fuses and the core does not open.
- optical fibers have an open or partial fusion caused by heat or flame in case of fire, all or part of the light from the light source leaks out through the damaged portion, and consequently the photoelectric element receives no light or only a part of the light from the light source.
- the photoelectric element receives the environmental lights and the light from flame entering through the damaged portion in lieu of the light from the light source, and accordingly there is scarecely any change in light intensity reaching the photoelectric element before and after the optical fiber is damaged, and it was quite difficult to discriminate the fire.
- the present idea aims at offering a heat detector which uses an optical fiber as heat sensing wire and is capable of readily discriminating a fire by detecting, without fail, such decrease of light from the light source as caused by damage in the optical fiber in case of fire.
- 1 is an optical fiber with its core and clad layer made of plastics having different refraction rates and which fuses at a low temperature (some 60 300°C)
- 2 is a light emitting element such as a light emitting diode provided at one end of optical fiber
- 3 is a light emitting current feed circuit to feed light emitting current to light emitting element
- 4 is a modulation circuit to modulate the light emitting current from light emitting current feed circuit 3 by signal with specific frequency f from oscillator 5 and to feed the modulated light to light emitting element
- 6 is a photoelectric element such as solar cell provided at the other end of optical fiber
- 7 is an amplifier to amplify the output of photoelectric element
- 8 is a bandpass filter through which only the output modulated by specific frequency f out of the amplified output from amplifier 7 can pass
- 9 is a fire discriminating circuit comprising a comparator which gives out a fire signal when the output through the bandpass filter has fallen below the
- the heat detector of this composition operates as follows.
- the light emitting current from light emitting current feed circuit 3 is normally modulated by modulation circuit 4 and fed to light emitting element 2. With this modulated light emitting current, light emitting element 2 emits modulated light to optical fiber 1.
- photoelectric element 6 receives the modulated light from light emitting element 2 through optical fiber 1.
- the output of photoelectric element 6 is amplified by amplifier 7, and then fed to fire discriminating circuit 9 through bandpass filter 8. Fire discriminating circuit 9 does not give out a fire signal as long as the modulated light output is above the predetermined level.
- the light emitting current from light emitting current feed circuit 3 is made as pulse output, to modulate the light emitting current pulse by output of oscillator 5 in modulation circuit 4 and to feed the modulated light emitting current pulse to light emitting element 2.
- operation of amplifier 7 or fire discriminating circuit 9 is synchronized with light emitting current output of light emitting current feed circuit 3.
- an optical fiber which is composed of only plastic core fusing at a low temperature or an optical fiber with its core made of quartz glass which does not fuse at a low temperature and its clad layer made of plastic fusing at a low temperature.
- occurence of a fire is discriminated by emitting modulated light to the optical fiber from the light emitting element and checking if there is attenuation in the modulated light intensity reaching the photoelectric element. Therefore, it offers a heat detector using an optical fiber as heat sensing wire which is capable of readily discriminating fire by detecting, without fail, such attenuation of light from the light source as caused by damage in the optical fiber in case of fire.
- the drawing is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of the heat detector according to this idea.
