Definitions
- the invention relates to a fire detector, with a sensor that detects smoke that penetrates into a detection range of the detector, the detector has a device with which can be determined whether the ingress of smoke, other aerosols or gas in the detection area is disturbed.
- the invention relates to a method by which disturbances of the penetration of smoke, other aerosols or gas can be detected in the Er chargedsberelch the detector.
- the measuring light transmitter is aligned with an optical sump.
- the optical sump is set in mechanical vibration during a smoke measurement with a frequency in the inaudible frequency range.
- the light transmitted by the transmitter is partially reflected at the sump on a measuring receiver and generates there an alternating signal, while light that is scattered on existing (background) aerosols on the receiver, generates a DC signal.
- no new background aerosol can penetrate into the detection area, while the existing aerosol settles. Therefore, when the aerosol-related background signal disappears, soiling of the smoke inlets is inferred.
- a smoke detector is described, which is installed in the exhaust duct of an aircraft tollet.
- at least two pressure sensors are used here.
- One of the pressure sensors is located in the detector, another behind the ventilation grille of the toilet and possibly a third person in the toilet room. If z. As the detector covered, so creates a pressure difference between the pressure sensor in the detector and the sensors outside the detector. This pressure difference is detected and evaluated for the detection of a cover.
- the EP 0 503 167 A1 and the JP 222 78 00 describe scattered light smoke detectors with a detection area in a measuring chamber, which is protected by a grid from the entry of insects. Outside the grating a test light source is mounted, which shines through the grating and whose light can be detected inside the detector at a receiver. If the grid becomes dirty, the smoke entering the detection area is disturbed and less light can pass through the grid. The resulting reduced reception of the test light inside the detector is interpreted as an indication of contamination of the insect screen.
- a scattered light smoke detector is described with a detection area in a measuring chamber, which is surrounded by an impurity filter.
- a light guide is laid annularly, which collects light that passes through the pollution filter and passes to a receiver. The strength of the light passing through the contaminant filter is evaluated as a measure of contamination of the contaminant filter.
- the detector has an ultrasonic sensor that monitors the area around the scattering point (detection area).
- the ultrasonic sensor is used to examine the area around the detector for foreign bodies, which impair the flow conditions for fire detection, thus impairing the entry of smoke into the detection area of the detector.
- a smoke detector with a detection area in a measuring chamber and a method has become known with which the blockage of an insect protection net with openings that allow the entry of smoke into the detection area of the detector can be detected.
- the resonance frequency of a sound body which is located in the interior of the detector, tuned to the resonant frequency of the measuring chamber with unpolluted insect grid.
- the resonance frequency of the measuring chamber results from the volume of the measuring chamber and the area and depth of the openings by means of the Helmholtz equations.
- a blockage of the insect net is to show that the resonant frequency of the measuring chamber relative to the resonance frequency of the sound body shifts and the vibration of the sound body stops.
- the DE 10 2006 023 048 A1 a smoke alarm device with a sensor that optically and / or acoustically scans at least one of the openings in the housing of the detector.
- a sensor that optically and / or acoustically scans at least one of the openings in the housing of the detector.
- the distance sensor is mounted inside the housing and directed towards the housing opening of the smoke detector. If the monitored opening is open, the distance z. B. measured to the next wall, while in a cover of the opening, only the distance is measured to the cover. A cover of the opening can thus be detected.
- the invention is therefore an object of the invention to provide a smoke detector and a method of the type mentioned above, with which even with a mounted directly to the housing openings protection against dirt or insects impairment of the penetration of smoke, other aerosols or gas in the detection area can be recognized, or provide alternatives to the known prior art.
- the invention is based on the following findings: All components of a smoke detector such. As the housing, the openings, insect protection, circuit board and measuring chamber have different acoustic impedances.
- the acoustic impedances of individual components depend on their material properties and their geometry.
- the invention relates to a method for detecting disturbances of penetration of fire characteristics such as smoke in a detection range of a fire detector with a housing.
- the housing has openings for the occurrence of the fire characteristics in the detection area, which in the interior of the housing z. B. is within a scattered light measuring chamber.
- dirt or covers of the housing openings and / or insect protection are recognized by, on the one hand, a characteristic acoustic field is generated within the smoke detector by exciting a sound transducer.
- the characteristic acoustic field is created by superposition of sound waves that are emitted directly from the transducer and sound waves that are at least partially reflected at acoustic interfaces inside and outside of the detector.
- At least one physical variable of the acoustic field such as amplitude and / or phase, is measured at at least one location within the acoustic field and the measured value (s) is compared with at least one reference. If in this case the at least one measured value deviates from the reference by a predeterminable amount, contamination or covering of the smoke intrusion openings or of the insect protection is ascertained.
- fire characteristics especially aerosols such.
- smoke and gases that arise during combustion meant.
- all other measurable phenomena which occur in the event of a fire penetrate into the housing of a detector and can be measured in its detection range are also considered fire characteristics.
- fire characteristics means which simulate the aforementioned fire characteristics to z. B. to test a fire alarm.
- a detection area is an area with which a fire parameter must come into contact or a room area in which a fire parameter must penetrate, so that it can be detected by the corresponding sensor system.
- the detection area is the space in which the light beam of a measuring light transmitter and the field of view of a scattered light receiver overlap.
- the insect screen in turn is a grid or tissue, which is permeable to the measured fire characteristic, but disturbances such. B. insects and coarse particles from the detection area keeps away.
- the sound transducer is excited with at least one discrete frequency.
- the frequency, the location of the transducer and the locations of one or more microphones are mutually matched.
- the tuning can be experimental or based on a simulation of the characteristic sound field and its interference by contamination or coverage of the fire alarm, z. B. by means of a finite element simulation done. For reasons of symmetry, it may make sense that the transducer is placed in the middle of the housing.
- a temperature dependence of the characteristic sound field can, for. B. be compensated with a frequency selected in dependence on the temperature, resulting in a reliable detection of contamination over a wide temperature range.
- the sound transducer is excited with a plurality of different discrete frequencies, wherein for the measured values of the sound field for each frequency a comparison is made with a respective reference belonging to this frequency.
- the additional frequencies may cause soiling or debris in areas of the housing that are at a single frequency, e.g. B. due to Schallabschattungen, less well recognized, have been detected better.
- the different measurement frequencies can be selected depending on the temperature.
- a variant of the method according to the invention is that the sound transducer with a frequency sweep (frequency sweep) is excited in a defined frequency interval with a sequence of frequencies and a resulting spectrum is measured at least one location in the acoustic field.
- Deviations of the measured spectrum to a reference spectrum can, for. B. by means of a rule-based analysis and / or pattern recognition z.
- B. by means of a fuzzy log or neural networks and / or cross-correlation of both spectra are detected. Since a measured spectrum has a characteristic pattern for each measuring location, which shifts substantially unchanged along the frequencies in the case of temperature changes, a further temperature compensation can be dispensed with here, especially if the changes in the pattern are evaluated.
- this variant of the method, as well as the variant with a plurality of discrete frequencies allows conclusions to be drawn about the location or the respective housing opening at which there is a cover or contamination.
- the invention also relates to a method for detecting disturbances of the penetration of fire characteristics into a detection area of a fire detector with a housing having openings for the occurrence of the fire characteristics in the detection area, the method detects soiling or covering the housing openings and / or insect protection in which it is not the effects of changes in impedance on a characteristic sound field that are measured, but the acoustic impedances themselves. Accordingly, the acoustic impedances of the complete fire detector and / or the housing openings and / or the insect protection are measured in this method. A contamination or a cover is detected when one or more of the measured acoustic impedances deviates from a reference corresponding to the respective impedance by a predeterminable amount.
- a compensation of temperature dependencies of the measurements can be made by references selected as a function of the temperature from a table.
- this table is completed during the operation of the detector.
- All recorded measured values are stored in the table at the currently prevailing temperature as the reference value. Amplitudes or phases are assigned to their respective frequencies.
- a new contamination measurement is carried out. If a plausibility check of these values shows that the detector is still not soiled or uncovered, these values are entered as reference values in the table for the respective temperature.
- temperatures are reached that already have reference values in the table, then the values already entered are used as references for the contamination detection.
- the values already entered are used as references for the contamination detection.
- the rows of the table are assigned different temperatures, while the columns are assigned different frequencies.
- a fire detector according to the invention comprises a detection area for fire parameters in a housing which has openings for penetration of the fire characteristics and means for detecting soiling or covering of the housing openings and / or an insect screen.
- the means for detecting contaminants or covers of the housing openings and / or the insect screen comprise a sounder that generates a characteristic acoustic field preferably in a non-audible frequency range in the housing of the fire detector, at least one microphone at least one suitably chosen location, the changes in amplitude and / or the phase of the characteristic acoustic field detected at each location and a Control and evaluation unit, which closes on exceeding the changes of amplitude and / or phase by a predeterminable amount to a contamination or cover.
- the changes in amplitude and / or the phase of the acoustic field at the location of the measurement are caused by a changed reflection behavior, ie by changes in the acoustic impedance of the housing openings and / or insect protection.
- the means for detecting contaminants or covers of the housing openings and / or insect protection of a fire detector according to the invention comprise a unit for measuring the acoustic impedances of the complete fire detector and / or the housing openings and / or the insect protection.

- Smoke that enters the measuring chamber must first pass through the housing openings 10a, 10b and the insect screen 11.
- the smoke detector 1 Since it happens again and again that smoke detectors z. B. are masked during renovation and then forgotten to remove the cover or pollute the insect screen 11 over time and then smoke can not penetrate unhindered in the detection area 18, the smoke detector 1 has a device according to the invention with which such covers or dirt can be recognized and displayed.
