DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a fire extinguisher installation location display device which indicates the installation location of a fire extinguisher and can determine whether a fire extinguisher is present at the installation location from a distance.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Fire extinguishers are required to be installed in apartment houses and the like, but they are often installed in places where they do not obstruct traffic and are difficult to see. In addition, even if it is installed in a corridor or the like, residents and the like are not usually aware of that fact. Therefore, in the event of a fire, residents who need a fire extinguisher often do not know the location of the fire extinguisher. In addition, even those who know the installation location have not confirmed whether there is a fire extinguisher at that location. For this reason, when it becomes necessary, it is often the case that the installation location is rushed or the user does not go there.

[0003]

As a solution to this problem, there is a fire extinguisher itself having a function of displaying its existence by light (Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 56-6460,
Utility Model Registration No. 3029858). However, they cannot be known unless they are nearby, and they are nothing less in the daytime.

On the other hand, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei 8-266666 discloses a device which emits light and sound in conjunction with a fire alarm to display its location. Is displayed only when a fire breaks out, and does not usually enhance awareness. According to the present invention, an installation location of a fire extinguisher is displayed so as to enhance recognition, and it is possible to see at a glance whether or not a fire extinguisher is present at the location.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Under the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a flag pole attached to a wall or the like so as to be rotatable up and down and a fire extinguisher placed under the wall or the like according to the first aspect. It consists of a tray on which a vessel can be placed, and a rope connecting the flagpole and the tray.When the fire extinguisher is placed on the tray, the flagpole is raised sideways through the rope. A fire extinguisher installation location display device is provided, wherein the plate is lifted by a rope and the flagpole is rotated downward by its own weight.

[0006] According to this, a flag is raised remarkably at the place where the fire extinguisher is placed, so that the recognition can be strengthened usually. In particular, the flagpole, the tray,
If there are multiple sets of cords arranged in line with the number of fire extinguishers, it will be noticeable. For this reason, even if a fire extinguisher is installed in a place that is a little difficult to see, residents who need a fire extinguisher in an emergency will always recognize the installation location of the fire extinguisher on a regular basis. On the other hand, if there is no fire extinguisher in this place, the flag is lowered, so that it can be seen at a glance even from a distance, eliminating the useless operation of going to a place without a fire extinguisher.

According to the present invention, there is further provided a means for forming an insertion tube portion into which a fire extinguisher can be inserted on an upper surface of a tray, as set forth in claim 2. There is an advantage that the fire extinguisher is hard to fall down even if the plate is shaken. Further, the present invention provides a means according to claim 3 in which the insertion tube portion and the placing plate are separated from each other, and the placing plate is fixed to the floor surface. Even if the dish is shaken by an earthquake or the like, the fire extinguisher is not easily fallen down, and the dish is not moved or fall down.

[0008]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 and 2 are side views showing an example of a fire extinguisher installation location display device according to the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a front view. The fire extinguisher installation location display device (hereinafter, referred to as a display device) includes a wall or the like. 1, a flag pole 2 that can rotate horizontally and downward, a flag plate 3 that can be placed under the wall or the like and on which a fire extinguisher can be placed, and connects the flag rod 2 and the plate 3 It consists of rope 4.

The flag pole 2 has a flag 6 attached to the tip of a pole 5, and a pin 8 is attached to a bracket 7 fixed to a wall or the like 1.
Is mounted so as to be rotatable around. The flag 6 may be about 50 cm square because the larger the flag 6 is, the easier it is to be noticed. Also, it is desirable to attach appropriate characters, or to apply luminous paint or the like so that recognition can be performed even at night. However, when it is provided in an outdoor corridor or the like, it is preferable that the length of the rod 5 be hidden by the eaves 9 so as not to be wet by rain or the like. Furthermore, since people pass under the flag pole 2 in many cases, it is appropriate to provide it at a height of about 2 m which does not hinder the passage.

The tray 3 is placed on a corridor, floor, or the like 10 below the flagpole 2, and has a size such that a fire extinguisher 11 can be placed thereon. At this time, it is suitable that the tray 3 has a bowl shape with a high edge so that the fire extinguisher 11 does not come off. Although the material of the placing plate 3 does not matter, a metal or resin which is lightweight and does not rot is suitable. The rope 4 is made of a wire, a rope, or the like, and connects the rear end of the rod 5 (on the side of the wall or the like 1 with respect to the pin 8) and the tray 3.

[0011] Explaining how to use this display device, the fire extinguisher 11 is always placed on the tray 3 at the place where the fire extinguisher 11 is installed. At this time, fire extinguisher 1
The weight of the flag pole 2 and the length of the rope 4 are adjusted so that the rope 4 is pulled downward by the weight of 1 and the flag pole 2 projects horizontally, that is, the flag 6 is raised. At a place where a plurality of fire extinguishers 11 are provided, the set of the box pole 2, the tray 3, and the string 4 are provided in a state where they are arranged in the same number. Accordingly, the resident of the building or the like always sees this state, and potentially recognizes the installation location of the fire extinguisher 11.

Therefore, if there is a fire or the like, go to that place first and take out the fire extinguisher 11 to extinguish the fire. Fire extinguisher 1
When 1 is removed from the tray 3 (the same is true when the liquid inside is refilled, etc.), the flagpole 2 pulls the rope 4 upward by its own weight (the tray 3 is also lifted) and moves downward. It turns and the so-called flag 6 goes down.
Since this state can be recognized from a distance, even those who are searching for the fire extinguisher 11 do not go to the place where the flag 6 has descended (search for another place), so that useless operation is eliminated. In particular, the initial fire extinguishing is important for fire extinguishing, so that by eliminating unnecessary operations at this time, it is possible to contribute to fire extinguishing.

FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of a main part showing the relationship between the flag pole 2 and the bracket 7. When the flag 6 is lowered, it is not necessary to hang the flag 6 directly below. If the fire extinguisher 11 is used as a stopper, the tray 3 will not be lifted extremely, and it is easy to put the fire extinguisher 11 again. Also, it is appropriate to attach guides 12 to the wall or the like 1 at appropriate intervals so that the ropes 4 do not bend, and to pass through the guides 12.

FIG. 5 is a sectional view of a main part showing another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, an insertion tube portion 13 into which a fire extinguisher 11 can be inserted is protruded from the upper surface of the tray 3. It is. Although the fire extinguisher 11 is hard to fall down due to the wind or the like, the fire extinguisher 1 is particularly effective even when the tray 3 is shaken by an earthquake or the like.
1 has an advantage that it is hard to fall down. In this regard, if the tray 3 is made of heavy iron or the like, this effect is higher. At this time, if a weight or the like is appropriately attached to the tip of the flag pole 2 and the fire extinguisher 11 is pulled out of the insertion tube portion 13, it goes without saying that the placing plate 3 is lifted and the flag 6 is lowered. Further, according to this, when a plurality of fire extinguishers 11 are placed, only a predetermined number of insertion tube portions 13 can be provided with a common portion of the placing plate 3, so that the distance between adjacent fire extinguishers 11 can be shortened and the whole can be made compact. There are advantages too.

FIG. 6 is a sectional view of a main part showing another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the above-described insertion tube portion 13 and the placing plate 3 are separately provided. 3 has a cylindrical portion 3a formed on the upper surface thereof, and an insertion cylindrical portion 13 is inserted into the cylindrical portion 3a (cord 4).
Is connected to the insertion tube 13). According to this, fire extinguisher 1
When 1 is removed from the insertion tube portion 13, the insertion tube portion 13 comes out of the tube portion 3a. In this case, since the placing plate 3 can be fixed to the floor or the like 10 with the screw 14 or the like, there is an advantage that the place does not move or fall down even if there is strong shaking.

[0016]

As described above, according to the display device of the present invention,
Since the flag is always raised where the fire extinguisher is installed, residents who need a fire extinguisher at an emergency will be aware of this fact. That is, it is possible to eliminate a situation where the user does not know where the fire extinguisher is located. On the other hand, when the fire extinguisher is removed, the flag will be in a down state, and this state can be immediately identified from a distance,
You won't go to that place (go to another place), and you'll eliminate unnecessary wasting, especially for initial firefighting.
