Description
- The present invention concerns an improved fire damper, in particular the tubular case supporting said fire damper.
- As is known, a fire damper is a device capable of closing a local vent when it is necessary to prevent the passage of fumes and/or flames in case of fire.
- A fire damper of the known type comprises a tubular body, called "case" in technical jargon, generally made of a metallic material, which delimits one section of said vent and makes it possible to fix the fire damper to the rest of the vent.
- Said tubular cases substantially have a rectangular or circular cross section.
- It is also known that a first type of tubular cases of the fire dampers of the known art is provided with two half-cases between which there is an interposed frame in a heat-insulating material, which interrupts the continuity of said case in such a way as to prevent the transmission of heat along the walls of the same case.
- In particular, the frame is provided with a through opening so as to revolvingly support a shutter blade that is configured so that it can rotate between an open position, in which the blade is arranged substantially parallel to the axis of the case in such a way as to allow the passage of air, and a closed position, in which the blade is arranged perpendicular to the axis of the case, so as to prevent said passage of air.
- A second type of fire dampers according to the known art comprises, instead, a case made as a single piece, on which the rotary shaft of the shutter blade is directly hinged in such a way as to allow the latter to rotate from said open position to said closed position and vice versa.
- Two embodiments of the fire dampers of the prior art are described in
documents EP 2 239 014 andEP 1 779 901 . - In particular, the former document describes a fire damper having improved fire resistance, comprising an air flow duct, a damper blade, which is provided in the air flow duct and can be rotated between an open position and a closed position, and a strip of intumescent material which expands under the effect of the heat. Such a strip of intumescent material is also designed to fill the space between the damper blade and the air flow duct after expansion and in the closed position of the damper blade, the damper blade being provided with at least one protruding edge along its periphery.
- Similarly, the document
EP 1 779 901 describes a fire damper composed of a body and an internal blade. - It is also known that fire dampers are installed at the level of the walls that divide the various rooms inside a building.
- In particular, the walls in which the fire dampers have to be installed are provided with holes that are larger than the cross section of the fire dampers, so that the latter can be introduced through the hole without obstacles.
- However, said difference in size clearly causes the presence of clearances between the surfaces of the hole and the external surface of the fire damper. Disadvantageously, said clearances give rise to two important drawbacks.
- The first drawback lies in that the fire damper simply introduced in the corresponding hole is not permanently fixed to the wall.
- The second drawback lies in that said clearances, disadvantageously, do not prevent the flames and/or fumes from passing from one side of the wall to the other in case of fire.
- In order to avoid these drawbacks, once the fire damper has been introduced in the corresponding hole it is necessary to use appropriate fixing elements and materials, such as concrete mixes, for example mortar, or special expanding polyurethane foams, in order to eliminate said clearances between the external surface of the case and the surfaces of said hole.
- Therefore, the use of said fixing elements and materials makes it possible to both permanently fix the fire damper to the respective wall and prevent the passage of flames and/or fumes through said clearances in case of fire.
- This operation for fixing the fire damper to the wall, however, poses the drawback that it takes a certain amount of time and, therefore, increases installation costs.
- In fact, once the fire damper has been arranged so that it passes through the hole made in the wall, the intervention of specialist personnel is required to fix it permanently to the wall with mortar or polyurethane foams.
- In particular, in order to guarantee that the fire damper is safely and permanently fixed to the wall, it is necessary to introduce said fixing materials in both sides of the wall, in order to fill said clearances. In some cases said introduction may disadvantageously represent a problem.
- Furthermore, in the case where the fire damper is installed against the edges of a wall, that is, adjacent to the ceiling or to a further side wall, the introduction of mortar or expanding polyurethane foams by said specialist personnel may be extremely difficult.
- Furthermore, the presence of said clearances and the way in which the fire damper is fixed to the wall, just described above, may involve the drawback of favouring possible errors in the positioning of the fire damper itself.
- In this case, to disadvantage, an incorrect positioning operation may affect the effectiveness of the fire damper and of the entire local vent.
- The prior
art document GB 2 453 950 - In particular, this document describes a fire damper for an aperture in a wall or ceiling formed of a generally cylindrical hollow casing having a first end for mounting into an aperture in the ceiling. Moreover, the casing has a second end for mounting into a ventilation duct extending from the aperture in the ceiling. A first collar of intumescent material is provided on the outside of the casing adjacent the first end for location adjacent an edge of the aperture and a second collar of intumescent material is provided on the inside of the casing adjacent the second end.
- The present invention intends to overcome all the drawbacks of the known art outlined above.
- In particular, it is the object of the present invention to provide a fire damper that can be installed in a simpler and quicker way compared to the fire dampers of the known type.
- Furthermore, it is the object of the invention to provide a fire damper suited to be installed without the aid of special instruments and fixing materials.
- It is also the object of the invention to provide a fire damper that operates more effectively than the fire dampers of the known type.
- It is another, yet not the least object of the invention to provide a fire damper that is more resistant to stresses and therefore less subject to possible damage during its production, transport and installation.
- The above mentioned objects are achieved by a fire damper constructed according to claim 1.
- Further characteristics of the fire damper of the invention are described in the dependent claims.
- The said objects, together with the advantages that will be highlighted below, are illustrated in the description of some preferred embodiments of the invention which are illustrated by way of non-limiting examples with reference to the attached drawings, wherein:
-
Figure 1 shows an axonometric view of a first embodiment of the fire damper that is only illustrative, and helps understanding the subject of the invention; -
Figure 2 shows a side view of the fire damper shown inFigure 1 ; -
Figure 3 shows the cross section of the fire damper ofFigure 2 according to the section plane π; -
Figure 4 shows a variant of the first embodiment of the fire damper shown inFigure 1 ; -
Figure 5 shows an axonometric view of a second embodiment of the fire damper which does show all elements of the invention; -
Figure 6 shows the frame and the shutter blade belonging to the fire damper ofFigure 5 ; -
Figure 7 schematically shows the cross section of the first and of the second embodiment of the fire damper of the invention, respectively shown inFigures 1 and5 , installed on a wall. - A first embodiment of the fire damper that illustrates many elements of the subject of the invention is shown as a whole in Figures from 1 to 3, where it is indicated by 1.
- As shown in
Figure 1 , the fire damper 1 comprises atubular case 2 usually made of a metallic material. - Inside said
tubular case 2 there is ashutter blade 3 revolvingly associated therewith and configured so that it can rotate around a rotation axis X between an open position, in which it is arranged parallel to the longitudinal axis Y of thetubular case 2, and a closed position, in which thesame blade 3 is arranged so that it is incident on the longitudinal axis Y of saidtubular case 2. - Preferably, the rotation of the
blade 3 is obtained through moving means, not illustrated in the figure but known per se, that are activated in case of fire. - According to the invention, the fire damper 1 comprises at least one annular heat-expanding
seal 4 arranged around thetubular case 2 and resting on theexternal surface 21 of the sametubular case 2. - Advantageously, the presence of said annular heat-expanding
seal 4 on theexternal surface 21 of thecase 2 makes it possible to install the fire damper 1 in a wall P of a building through the so-called "dry" techniques, that is, with no need to use fixing elements or materials like for example concrete mixes or expanding polyurethane foams. - In particular, as shown in
Figure 7 , according to the installation procedure the fire damper 1 of the invention must be introduced in a hole F made in said wall P, whose size and shape substantially coincide with the cross section of thetubular case 2. When the section of thetubular case 2 in which said annular heat-expandingseal 4 is arranged is in proximity to the hole F, the same annular heat-expandingseal 4 comes into contact with the perimeter surfaces of the same hole F, fixing the fire damper 1 of the invention to the wall P through interference, as can be seen in the detail shown inFigure 7 . - Furthermore, still advantageously, the presence of the annular heat-expanding
seal 4, which is arranged between theexternal surface 21 of thetubular case 2 and the perimeter surfaces of the hole F when the fire damper 1 is installed, is sufficient to prevent the passage of flames and/or fume in case of fire, as theseal 4 expands and thus seals in an optimal manner any clearances and fissures that may be present between the wall P and the fire damper 1. - As shown in
Figure 2 , the fire damper 1 of the invention preferably comprises two annular heat-expandingseals 4 arranged parallel to each other on theexternal surface 21 of thecase 2. - It cannot be excluded, however, that in different embodiments of the invention there may be a single
annular seal 4 or there may be more than two annular heat-expandingseals 4 arranged parallel to one another. - Furthermore, according to the preferred embodiment of the fire damper 1 of the invention shown in
Figures 2 and 3 , the two annular heat-expandingseals 4 are arranged on theexternal surface 21 of thetubular case 2 in such a way that the planes π and γ on which they lie are two planes that are orthogonal to the longitudinal axis Y of the sametubular case 2. - In the embodiment of the invention shown in
Figure 1 , thetubular case 2 and theblade 3 of the fire damper 1, according to a cross-section plane orthogonal to the longitudinal axis Y, have a rectangular shape, as can be seen inFigure 3 . - Alternatively, the
tubular case 2 and theblade 3, always according to said cross- section plane, may have a circular shape, as can be seen inFigure 4 . Thetubular case 2 is made as a single piece. - A second embodiment of the fire damper that is the subject of the invention, indicated by 101 in
Figure 5 , includes all the characteristics of the first embodiment of the fire damper 1 described above, as well as the possible variants. - However, said second embodiment of the invention can be distinguished from the fire damper 1 due to the fact that it comprises a
frame 105 made in a heat-insulating material, preferably calcium silicate fibre or another refractory material. - Said
frame 105 perimetrically delimits anopening 106 with which theshutter blade 103 is revolvingly associated around the rotation axis X. - For clarity's sake, in
Figure 6 theframe 105 together with theblade 103 are represented isolated from thetubular case 102. - In said second embodiment of the invention, as shown in
Figure 5 , thetubular case 102 is configured in such a way as to internally define arecess 107 suited to permanently accommodate saidframe 105. - Advantageously, the presence of the
recess 107 makes it possible to constrain theframe 105 to thetubular case 102 with no need to use screws, adhesive substances or other analogous fixing means. - Furthermore, the fact that the
frame 105 is arranged on the inner side of thetubular case 102 allows for better protection of thesame frame 105 during both transport and installation, with the advantage of obtaining asturdier fire damper 101. - As far as the two annular heat-expanding
seals 104 are concerned, as shown inFigure 5 , they are arranged in theportion 122 of theexternal surface 121 of thetubular case 102 at the level of which saidrecess 107 is defined. Preferably, between theframe 105 and therecess 107 there is a seal, not represented in the figures but known per se, which advantageously prevents the passage of gas between the two elements. - In particular, preferably but not necessarily, said seal is arranged in a housing obtained on the external perimeter surface of the
frame 105. - Still preferably, the
tubular case 102 comprises a plurality of throughopenings 108 facing therecess 107, visible inFigure 5 , which reduce the average cross section of thetubular case 102 and thus limit its heat conductivity in the direction defined by the axis Y. - Advantageously, the through
openings 108 make it possible to hinder heat transmission by conductivity along thetubular case 102 also in the case where the latter is made from a single piece of conductive material like, for example, a metal plate. - In particular, metal plate advantageously makes it possible to obtain a light, resistant and economic
tubular case 102. - As the through
holes 108 are made at the level of therecess 107, they are advantageously covered by theframe 105 on the inner side and by the annular heat-expandingseals 104 on the outer side, which therefore prevent the gas contained in thetubular case 102 from flowing towards the outside across the throughopenings 108. - Preferably but not necessarily, the
tubular case 102 is made starting from a bent metal plate. - In practice, the
fire damper 1, 101, as shown inFigure 7 , is introduced in a hole F made in a wall P of a building and fixed therein through interference. - In particular, the
fire damper 1, 101 of the invention is introduced in said hole F until the annular heat-expandingseals Figure 7 , therefore with no need to use fixing elements and materials. - In case of fire, the
blade - The annular heat-expanding
seals fire damper 1, 101. - The above clearly shows that the improved fire damper that is the subject of the invention achieves all the set objects.
- In fact, the invention achieves the object to provide a fire damper that can be installed in a simpler and quicker way compared to the fire dampers of the known type.
- In particular, the invention achieves the object to provide a fire damper suited to be installed without the aid of special instruments and fixing materials.
- It also achieves the object to provide a fire damper that operates more effectively than the fire dampers of the known type.
- The invention furthermore achieves the object to provide a fire damper that is more resistant to external stresses during production, transport and even installation.
- Where technical features mentioned in any claim are followed by reference signs, those reference signs have been included for the sole purpose of increasing the intelligibility of the claims and accordingly such reference signs do not have any limiting effect on the protection of each element identified by way of example by such reference signs.
