WO 82/04032A1 NL 8201637A US 2005/217871 disclose solutions where bins are equipped with fire extinguishing means, which however may be insufficiently effective. - The present invention aims at providing a solution for eliminating or alleviating the above-mentioned drawbacks. In particular, the invention aims at solving how to extinguish an ongoing bin fire as quickly as possible and with minimal damage.
- The firesafe bin according to the invention is characterized in what is set forth in the characterizing part of the
independent claim 1. - A firesafe bin according to an embodiment of the invention comprises a vessel and fire-extinguishing means which are provided at or near the vessel and which may comprise fire-extinguishing devices and fire-extinguishing systems as well as means provided at the fire-extinguishing means for detecting a fire in said bin and for activating the fire-extinguishing means. The fire-extinguishing means can be placed, for instance, at the top of the bin, on the inside of it, or near the bin, on the outside of it. Besides, a fire alarm can be provided at the bin and/or the fire-extinguishing means, having a siren or horn, for example, to emit an acoustic alarm signal to the surroundings.
- A fire broken out in a bin can possibly be effectively extinguished by using fire-extinguishing means based on aerosol technology, for example. It is preferable to use an aerosol fire-extinguishing agent because the aerosol fire-extinguishing agent has a good fire-extinguishing performance for a number of different fire types and, compared to gaseous fire-extinguishing agents and inert gases, the amount of it that is needed can be 3 to 4 and 30 to 40 times smaller, respectively, with the result that the aerosol fire-extinguisher can be smaller in size and cause less disturbance to the use of the bin. Further, the fire-extinguishing means may comprise a dry-powder extinguisher, and, the fire-extinguishing means is based on impulse technology. Further, the fire-extinguishing means can be based on a liquid fire-extinguishing agent.
- According to an embodiment, the fire detection means comprise a temperature sensor for sensing the temperature of the bin. The temperature sensor connected to the fire-extinguishing means can be any temperature sensor suitable for the purpose, reacting fast enough to the temperature and any change in the temperature. The temperature sensor can also be adapted to only sense when a set temperature is exceeded.
- According to an embodiment, the also comprises a loading-aperture door adapted to close by gravity, a spring, motor or some other closing means without any user action. A loading aperture like this may allow the amount of air flowing into the bin to be reduced, possibly decreasing the supply of oxygen to the fire.
- According to the invention, the bin is adapted for collecting used batteries and/or accumulators, such as lithium accumulators. According to the invention, the fire-extinguishing means provided at the bin comprise an impulse extinguisher. For some bins, it may be preferable to use an impulse extinguisher because the impulse extinguisher forms a fire-insulating barrier on the surface of a material, allowing glowing combustion to be suppressed as well. Besides, being non-conductive, the impulse extinguisher may, especially in battery collection bins, prevent a fire from breaking out again due to a short circuit caused by the batteries. Preferably, aerosol technology involving some other extinguisher than an impulse extinguisher is applied to collection bins intended for accumulators, such as lithium accumulators.
- The utility of the bin according to the invention arises from a number of facts. The extinguishers based on aerosol technology are pressure-free, possibly reducing the danger to people from the extinguisher as such. The present extinguishers are nontoxic, i.e. the use of the extinguisher does not contribute to the greenhouse effect, does not destroy the ozone layer, it does not have a lifespan in the atmosphere, the extinguisher does not contain CFC or HFC compounds, chlorine or bromide, it does not pose an environmental burden or danger, the use of the extinguisher does not pose a risk of choking, and it does not displace oxygen.
- Moreover, the extinguishers based on aerosol technology have a high discharge energy and effective mass, which, combined with the bins, may allow for effective fire extinction as the fire-extinguishing agent also is capable of piercing through a large front of flames and directly into the burning matter. The extinguishers may also comprise a dry-powder extinguisher. The extinguishers can be one, two or more in number.
- In this application, "a bin" or "a vessel" refers to vessels, boxes, closets etc. in different shapes. The lid and/or door can be provided on the top or on the side of the bin/vessel.
- In this application, the term "a collection bin" refers widely to vessels for collecting and/or storing municipal waste in different forms, such as household trash, used clothing, newspapers, batteries and accumulators as well as post packages, which may vary in size and shape depending on the goods to be collected. The bin can be installable outdoors or indoors.
