Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Feuerlöschanlage für ein Passagierflugzeug unter Verwendung eines, im Flugzeugrumpf angeordneten Rohrleitungssystems, welches Löschmittel enthaltende Vorratsbehälter mit mehreren Rauchwarnhauben mechanisch verbindet, wobei jede Rauchwarnhaube mindestens einen Rauchwarnsensor und eine mit diesem Rauchwarnsensor zusammenwirkende Löschmittel-Ausströmdüse aufweist, wobei Auslaßventile der Vorratsbehälter und die Löschmittel-Ausströmdüsen vom Cockpit des Flugzeuges aus steuerbar sind, und wobei die Rauchwarnhauben im Unterflurbereich des Flugzeuges, vorzugsweise im vorderen Frachtladeraum und/oder im hinteren Frachtladeraum und/oder im Gepäckladeraum des Flugzeuges angeordnet sind.The invention relates to a fire extinguishing system for a passenger aircraft using one located in the fuselage Pipe system, which contains extinguishing agent Storage container with several smoke warning hoods mechanically connects, with each smoke warning hood having at least one smoke warning sensor and one that interacts with this smoke alarm sensor Extinguishing agent discharge nozzle has, wherein outlet valves the storage container and the extinguishing agent discharge nozzles from The cockpit of the aircraft are controllable, and the being Smoke warning hoods in the underfloor area of the aircraft, preferably in the front cargo hold and / or in the rear cargo hold and / or arranged in the luggage compartment of the aircraft are.

Aus der DE 36 15 415 C2 ist eine Feuerlöscheinrichtung mit zwei Feuerlöschmittelbehältern für unter Überdruck flüssige Löschmittel zur Erzeugung eines ersten und eines zweiten Feuerlöscheinsatzes für Frachträume von Verkehrsmitteln bekannt, insbesondere von Luftfahrzeugen. Hierbei wird das bei atmosphärischen Druck gasförmige Feuerlöschmittel der zwei Feuerlöschmittelbehälter über ein gemeinsames Rohrleitungsnetz mit gemeinsamen Feuerlöschmittelausströmdüsen zu den Frachträumen des Luftfahrzeuges befördert. Die vom Cockpit des Flugzeuges aus steuerbare Feuerlöscheinrichtung kann zum Beispiel über insgesamt vier Ausströmdüsen verfügen, von denen zwei Ausströmdüsen im vorderen Frachtladeraum und je eine Ausströmdüse im hinteren Frachtladeraum und im Gepäckladeraum angebracht sein können.DE 36 15 415 C2 includes a fire extinguishing device two fire extinguishing agent containers for liquid under pressure Extinguishing media for generating a first and a second Fire extinguishing insert known for freight compartments of means of transport, especially of aircraft. This is the case with atmospheric pressure gaseous fire extinguishing agent of the two Fire extinguishing agent container via a common pipeline network with common fire extinguishing agent outflow nozzles Air cargo holds. The one from the cockpit the aircraft from controllable fire extinguishing equipment can Example have a total of four outflow nozzles, from which two outlet nozzles in the front cargo hold and each an outflow nozzle in the rear cargo hold and in the luggage hold may be appropriate.

Zur Zeit sind sogenannte LD-MCR Container (Lower Deck-Mobile Crew Rest Container) bei einigen Flugzeugen im Einsatz, die in Unterflurbereichen installiert werden. Diese Container bieten der Besatzung und den Passagieren der Flugzeuge die Möglichkeit zum Ausruhen während eines Fluges. Die nur temporär benutzten Ruheräume werden bisher mit separaten Feuerlöscheinrichtungen ausgestattet. Dieses gilt auch für ähnliche Räume, die im Unterflurbereich als Festeinbauten konzipiert werden, wie zum Beispiel BCRC-Räume (Bulk Crew Rest Compartments) und andere LDF-Räume (Lower Deck Facility Räume). Die separaten Feuerlöscheinrichtungen führen nachteiligerweise zu einem erhöhten Aufwand an Feuerlöschflaschen, Rohrleitungen, Halterungen sowie elektrischen Systemanbindungen und somit zu unerwünschten Gewicht, Kosten und Wartungsaufwand.So-called LD-MCR containers (Lower Deck-Mobile Crew rest containers) are used on some aircraft that be installed in underfloor areas. These containers offer the crew and the passengers of the aircraft the Possibility to rest during a flight. The only temporary used relaxation rooms are so far with separate fire-fighting equipment fitted. This also applies to Similar rooms in the underfloor area as fixed installations be designed, such as BCRC rooms (Bulk Crew Rest Compartments) and other LDF rooms (Lower Deck Facility Rooms). The separate fire extinguishing devices lead disadvantageously to an increased expenditure on fire extinguishing bottles, Pipelines, brackets and electrical system connections and thus to undesirable weight, costs and Maintenance effort.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, unter Wegfall von separaten Feuerlöscheinrichtungen eine Einrichtung der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, mit der ein für das Leervolumen des gesamten Frachtladeraumes ausgelegtes Frachtraumfeuerlöschsystem ohne großen zusätzlichen Aufwand für die oben beschriebenen Ruheräume im Flugzeugunterflurbereich nutzbar gemacht wird.The invention is therefore based on the object, with elimination of separate fire-fighting equipment of the type mentioned at the beginning, with which one for the Empty fire extinguishing system designed for the entire cargo hold without much additional effort for the relaxation rooms described above in the aircraft underfloor area is made usable.

Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß sich die Feuerlöschanlage auf im unteren Flurbereich angeordnete Passagierbereiche derart erstreckt, daß eine oder mehrere in den Passagierbereichen angeordnete Löschmittel-Ausströmdüsen über Rohrleitungen und Abzweigelemente an dem Rohrleitungssystem angeschlossen sind. The object is achieved in that the fire extinguishing system on the lower corridor area Passenger areas extends such that one or more Extinguishing agent outflow nozzles arranged in the passenger areas via pipes and branch elements on the pipe system are connected.

Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen 2 bis 4 beschrieben.Embodiments of the invention are in subclaims 2 to 4 described.

Ein erfindungsgemäßer Vorteil besteht darin, daß nach dem Aktivieren des Frachtraumfeuerlöschsystems das Löschmittel über die Abzweigelemente zu den Löschmittel-Ausströmdüsen in den Passagierbereichen strömt und dort zu Löschzwecken in den vom Feuer betroffenen Passagierbereich gelangt. Vorteilhafterweise erfolgt eine gleichzeitige Löschung von Frachtraum und Kabinenunterflurraum, d.h. beide Räume sind unabhängig vom Brandherd brandtechnisch abgesichert. Weitere Vorteile der Erfindung sind darin zu sehen,

  • daß keine zusätzliche manuelle Feuerbekämpfung im Kabinenunterflurraum bzw. -container erforderlich ist,
  • daß nur ein geringer Abdichtungsaufwand am Kabinenunterflurraum bzw. -container notwendig ist, da die Frachtraumverkleidung den wesentlichen Anteil zur Dichtigkeit beisteuert, und
  • daß die Schnittstellen zu den angrenzenden Räumen und Systemen, wie Zutrittsöffnungen, Klimazu- und -abluft, außerhalb der Frachtraumverkleidung im Brandfall den Dichtigkeitsanforderungen unterliegen und daher abgeschottet sein müssen.
An advantage according to the invention is that after the cargo hold fire extinguishing system has been activated, the extinguishing agent flows through the branching elements to the extinguishing agent outflow nozzles in the passenger areas and there reaches the passenger area affected by the fire for extinguishing purposes. Advantageously, a simultaneous extinguishing of the cargo hold and the underfloor cabin space takes place, ie both rooms are fire-protected regardless of the source of the fire. Further advantages of the invention can be seen in
  • that no additional manual fire fighting in the underfloor cabin or container is required,
  • that only a small amount of sealing is required on the underfloor space or container, since the cargo space paneling contributes the essential part to the tightness, and
  • that the interfaces to the adjacent rooms and systems, such as access openings, air supply and exhaust air, outside the cargo compartment cladding in the event of a fire are subject to the tightness requirements and must therefore be sealed off.
