Abstract

1,243,633. Axial-flow fans. WALTER KIDDE CO. Ltd. Nov.15, 1968 [Nov. 16, 1967], No.52305/67. Heading F1C. [Also in Divisions A5 and B1] In a fire foam generator of the type comprising a wind tunnel 11 having means 23 for depositing foam forming solution on a mesh 12 through which air is blown by a fan 22 (see also Fig. 2 not shown), the fan is driven by a Pelton wheel 30 or impact water turbine. The Pelton wheel and axial nozzle 23 share a common water supply 41, the nozzle supply passing through a venturi 29 where foam forming agent is induced through a tube 32. The water supply to the Pelton wheel is independently controllable by valve 38.
