Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif à double fonction: -détection et avertissement (alarme) de la présence de fumée et/ou de gaz dangereux (CO2, CO) dans un logement; -éclairage d'une pièce avec une ampoule à économie d'énergie. Elle est dotée d'une alimentation énergétique (batterie) de secours. Le dispositif se compose en un bloc compact contenant les deux fonctions. L'alimentation de ces dispositifs se fait traditionnellement avec des piles jetables ou rechargeables, ce qui pollue ou demande une vigilance particulière de la part de l'utilisateur. Par ailleurs, ces dispositifs sont uniquement conçus pour la détection et l'avertissement et par conséquent, sont installés en supplément des dispositifs d'éclairage. Ces installations ne sont donc pas appréciables d'un point de vue esthétique et écologique. En plus des détecteurs indépendants et autonomes spécifiques à seulement un type de gaz ou fumée, le futur détecteur introduit une détection complète de gaz potentiellement toxiques dans le logement. A l'aspect technique est introduit un aspect esthétique (un design) ainsi qu'un luminaire économique. Il dispose d'une gamme de détecteurs de fumée, à avertisseur sonore de type alarme décibel (dB). La fonction de détection propose une gamme selon le type de fumée (fumée noire et blanche) et se diffusant à l'intérieur d'un local. La gamme s'adapte selon le type de local. Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention: La figure 1 représente le dispositif de l'invention en vue de gauche, face extérieure et vue de droite. La figure 2 représente en coupe intérieure et en plan intérieur de répartition électronique, une variante de ce dispositif. En référence à ces dessins, le dispositif comporte un socle en PVC (1) ininflammable ou en une matière biodégradable (exemple : plastique en maïs biodégradable) recouvert par un capot en PVC (2) ininflammable ou en une matière biodégradable (exemple : plastique en maïs biodégradable). Il a un diamètre de 30 cm, à titre d'exemple non limitatif. La surface extérieure du capot est constituée en son centre, d'un orifice (4) entouré de grilles de ventilations (3). Ces grilles permettent d'une part, l'absorption d' éventuels fumées et gaz toxiques (CO2, CO) et d'autre part, la ventilation des systèmes électroniques (8). L'orifice est de diamètre ajustable selon le type d'ampoule (à économie d'énergie) utilisée. The present invention relates to a dual-function device: -detection and warning (alarm) of the presence of smoke and / or hazardous gas (CO2, CO) in a housing; -lighting a room with an energy saving light bulb. It has a power supply (battery) backup. The device consists of a compact block containing both functions. The power of these devices is traditionally made with disposable or rechargeable batteries, which pollutes or requires special vigilance on the part of the user. Furthermore, these devices are only designed for detection and warning and therefore, are installed in addition to lighting devices. These facilities are therefore not appreciable from an aesthetic and ecological point of view. In addition to independent and autonomous detectors specific to only one type of gas or smoke, the future detector introduces a complete detection of potentially toxic gases in the housing. At the technical aspect is introduced an aesthetic aspect (a design) and an economic lighting. It has a range of smoke detectors, with audible alarm type decibel (dB). The detection function offers a range depending on the type of smoke (black and white smoke) and spreading inside a room. The range adapts according to the type of room. The attached drawings illustrate the invention: FIG. 1 represents the device of the invention in left view, outside face and right view. Figure 2 shows an inner section and inner plane of electronic distribution, a variant of this device. With reference to these drawings, the device comprises a non-flammable PVC base (1) or a biodegradable material (example: biodegradable corn plastic) covered by a non-flammable PVC cover (2) or a biodegradable material (example: plastic in biodegradable maize). It has a diameter of 30 cm, by way of non-limiting example. The outer surface of the hood is constituted in its center, an orifice (4) surrounded by ventilation grids (3). These grids allow, on the one hand, the absorption of possible toxic fumes and gases (CO2, CO) and, on the other hand, the ventilation of the electronic systems (8). The orifice is adjustable in diameter depending on the type of bulb (energy saving) used.

Selon la figure 2, la lampe à économie d'énergie se trouve à l'intérieure d'un cylindre en PVC (5) isolé physiquement et thermiquement des systèmes électroniques portant les capteurs (optiques) (6) afin d'éviter une surchauffe de ces derniers. Elle est commandée par un interrupteur qui permettra de l'éteindre ou de l'allumer en cas de besoin. L'ampoule est vissée sur un culot (femelle) de type E27 ou GU10 (7). Le boîtier électronique qui régit l'ensemble du système est placé à l'intérieur du socle. Le système d'éclairage de secours (9) est relié à la batterie de secours. Le dit système d'éclairage de secours est composé de un ou plusieurs LED. La fixation du capot (2) au socle (1) est réalisée par un système de fixation un quart de tour avec un buté d'arrêt et une vis de sécurité. Lorsque ce système est en position fermée, les capteurs du socle font face aux grilles de ventilation du capot. Le socle est fixé au plafond grâce à 4 vis. Le dispositif sera alimenté par un secteur (220V) provenant directement du tableau électrique. Il dispose d'une batterie de secours assurant son alimentation en cas de coupure du courant (1/2 heure). Elle alimentera uniquement les circuits électroniques concernant la détection et l'avertissement sonore, ainsi que le ou les LED (9) du système d'éclairage de secours. Un type de tonalité spécifique (avertisseur sonore) est attribué à chaque capteur. L'affaiblissement de la batterie sera également averti par un témoin lumineux (11) et une tonalité sonore différente de celles des capteurs. Chaque capteur a également son « bouton test » (10) qui permet de vérifier si l'avertisseur sonore fonctionne. Le nombre de capteurs peut varier en fonction des besoins de l'utilisateur. Une sortie RJ45 (12) est intégrée au dispositif afin de relier le détecteur à un modem pour avertir l'utilisateur, en son absence, de la présence de gaz ou fumées toxiques par message électronique (« texto » ou e-mail). According to FIG. 2, the energy-saving lamp is located inside a PVC cylinder (5) physically and thermally insulated from the electronic systems carrying the (optical) sensors (6) in order to avoid overheating. these latter. It is controlled by a switch that will turn it off or on when needed. The bulb is screwed on a base (female) type E27 or GU10 (7). The electronic box that governs the entire system is placed inside the base. The emergency lighting system (9) is connected to the backup battery. The said emergency lighting system is composed of one or more LEDs. The attachment of the cover (2) to the base (1) is achieved by a quarter-turn fastening system with a stopper and a safety screw. When this system is in the closed position, the pedestal sensors face the hood ventilation grilles. The base is fixed to the ceiling with 4 screws. The device will be powered by a sector (220V) directly from the electrical panel. It has a backup battery ensuring its power supply in case of power failure (1/2 hour). It will supply only the electronic circuits concerning the detection and audible warning, as well as the LED (9) of the emergency lighting system. A specific tone type (buzzer) is assigned to each sensor. The weakening of the battery will also be warned by a light (11) and a sound tone different from those of the sensors. Each sensor also has its "test button" (10) which makes it possible to check whether the buzzer is working. The number of sensors can vary according to the needs of the user. An RJ45 output (12) is integrated in the device to connect the detector to a modem to warn the user, in his absence, the presence of toxic gases or fumes by electronic message ("texting" or e-mail).

Le dispositif s'applique aux locaux d'habitation et aux locaux industriels ou espaces de travail, pour la sécurité des personnes. The device applies to residential premises and industrial premises or workspaces, for the safety of persons.
