Definitions
- the present invention is included within the elements and devices forming part of manual fire extinguishers.
- manual fire extinguishers generally consist of a metallic container to which a valve is screwed, the opening of which valve is manually actuated, a hose with a projection nozzle and a support. An extinguishing agent and a propellant gas are introduced inside the container.
- the assembly complies perfectly with its function when it is used but it is completely useless against fires if there is nobody to activate it and is an additional danger due to its possibility of explosion.
- some high-pressure extinguishers incorporate a pressure/temperature seal releasing the propellant gas thus avoiding the danger of explosion in these situations.
- Patents PO0434168, EP97101877 , EP96401032 , W9734659 and others referring to new valves and devices for fire extinguishers are known but none of them considers the modification or implementation of a new manual valve that further allows its automatic operation when the fire extinguisher is in the presence of high temperatures or other fire-indicating parameters, i.e. in this situation, it not only releases the propellant gas but it operates by projecting the extinguishing product as if its valve were being actuated manually.
- the present invention is focused on improving and modifying current valves and setting forth a new valve allowing the proposed operation.
- the present invention first sets forth modifications further allowing the automatic operation of current valves without interfering in their normal operation.
- the pressure-sealing mechanism or part (4) is located in the neck (7) screwing the valve to the fire extinguisher so any element behind this part (4) is isolated from the internal pressure of the fire extinguisher.
- all fire extinguishers incorporate a probe tube (5) screwed internally in the neck (7) of the valve, preventing the propellant gas from being released without first pushing and sweeping along the extinguishing product when the valve is actuated.
- This probe tube (5) creates an isolated area (8) for the propellant gas and a forced path of the latter such that the gas pushes and sweeps the extinguishing product along in its outlet when the pressure-sealing part (4) of the valve is opened.
- the gas will also follow this path so that the extinguishing agent is swept along.
- Example 2 modification which can achieve the same result (figure 3):
- a conventional valve will simply expel the propellant gas when the fire extinguisher reaches a certain temperature or pressure, the extinguishing agent remaining inside the container of the fire extinguisher and this propellant gas expulsion having no effect against the fire.
- the new valve may or may not maintain the connection by means of bore (3) joining the space of the container with propellant gas (8) and the space (6) in which the manometer is located, because its only purpose is to prevent the duct allowing the manometer to receive the pressure of the propellant gas from being obstructed in the outlet of the extinguishing agent when the fire extinguisher is actuated manually or automatically.
- This new valve has the actuation of opening (20) in a direction that is transverse to that of coupling (7) to the container of the fire extinguisher, i.e. according to the axis of the outlet of the gas from the fire extinguisher to the projection hose and with a pressure seal.
- This arrangement allows creating a space directly connected with the probe tube and if desired, independent or not of the space of the manometer, easily and with minimal machining.
- This space houses: the sealing mechanism of the valve and the automatic triggering mechanism, the manometer if desired, this manometer being able to be connected to a suitable automatic projection nozzle or to the nozzle of the fire extinguisher if the pressure/temperature seal is located in a bridging of the seal of the valve or in the seal itself of the valve.
