Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vehicle fire prevention system having both passive and active fire prevention systems working coordinately. <P>SOLUTION: A vehicle fire prevention system comprises: a passive fire prevention system 26, such as a powder panel, associated with a fuel tank 22 on a vehicle 20; an active fire prevention system 30 associated with a crew compartment 24 in the vehicle 20; and a control link for transmitting a signal to actuate the active fire prevention system. The passive fire prevention system 26 is connected to a sensor 42 through a control line 40. Once any abnormality in the crew compartment is detected by the sensor 42, the active fire prevention system 30 is activated. After a discharged object 25 penetrates a shell 21, the passive prevention system 26, a fuel tank 22, and the crew compartment 24, the passive prevention system provides the crew compartment 24 and the fuel tank 22 with powder 28, while the active prevention system provides the crew compartment 24 with powder 32. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT

Description

本発明は、車両燃料タンクに対応する受動防火システムと、乗員室に対応する能動防火システムと、を組み合わせた車両用防火システムに関する。   The present invention relates to a vehicle fire prevention system that combines a passive fire prevention system corresponding to a vehicle fuel tank and an active fire prevention system corresponding to a passenger compartment.

軍事用途に利用される地上車両および航空機は、通常、防火（火炎制御）システムを備える。車両のシェル（外殻）を発射体が貫通した場合、ダメージを最小限に抑えるために防火システムが作動する。   Ground vehicles and aircraft used for military applications typically include a fire protection (flame control) system. When a projectile penetrates the vehicle's shell, the fire protection system is activated to minimize damage.

他の形式の防火システムとしては、燃料タンクを取り囲むように配設される受動システムがある。一形式の受動システムは、パウダパネルとして周知である。この種のシステムには、抑制剤が充填されて周囲を取り囲むように配置される周囲エレメントが含まれる。発射体が燃料タンクを貫通するときパウダパネルも貫通する。これにより、貫通した燃料タンク内にパウダ剤が供給される。   Another type of fire protection system is a passive system disposed around the fuel tank. One type of passive system is known as a powder panel. This type of system includes a peripheral element that is filled with an inhibitor and arranged to surround it. When the projectile penetrates the fuel tank, the powder panel also penetrates. Thereby, the powder agent is supplied into the fuel tank that has penetrated.

他の防火システムは、いわゆる能動システムである。能動システムは、ある種のセンサを備え、かつパウダなど火災制御物質を車両の乗員室内へ供給するように用いられる。   Another fire protection system is a so-called active system. Active systems are equipped with certain sensors and are used to supply fire control materials such as powder into the passenger compartment of a vehicle.

発射体が燃料タンクを貫通した後、乗員室を貫通する事態が生じることがある。しかし、今日まで、能動システムおよび受動システムは互いに作動するように対応していない。   After the projectile has penetrated the fuel tank, it may happen that the projectile penetrates the passenger compartment. However, to date, active and passive systems have not been adapted to work with each other.

車両防火システムは、車両の燃料タンクに対応する受動防火システムを備える。さらに、車両防火システムは、車両の乗員室に対応する能動防火システムを備える。コントロールリンクは、能動防火システムを起動するように信号を送信する。さらに、防火システムを備えた車両について開示する。   The vehicle fire prevention system includes a passive fire prevention system corresponding to a fuel tank of the vehicle. Furthermore, the vehicle fire prevention system includes an active fire prevention system corresponding to the passenger compartment of the vehicle. The control link sends a signal to activate the active fire protection system. Further, a vehicle equipped with a fire prevention system is disclosed.

以下の詳細な説明および添付の図面から本発明の上記および他の特徴を理解されるであろう。以下に図面の簡単な説明について記載する。   These and other features of the present invention will be understood from the following detailed description and accompanying drawings. The following is a brief description of the drawings.

車両用の防火システムの概略図。Schematic of a fire protection system for a vehicle. パウダパネルを有する燃料タンクの概略図。Schematic of the fuel tank which has a powder panel.

図１に車両２０を概略的に示す。燃料タンク２２は、車両シェル２１の種々の位置に配置される。図示の燃料タンク２２は、パウダパネルなどの受動防火システム２６を備える。図２に燃料タンク２２に対応する受動防火システム（パウダパネル）２６をより詳細に示す。本範囲から逸脱することなく、燃料タンクに対応する他の形式の受動防火システムを用いることができる。   FIG. 1 schematically shows a vehicle 20. The fuel tank 22 is arranged at various positions on the vehicle shell 21. The illustrated fuel tank 22 includes a passive fire prevention system 26 such as a powder panel. FIG. 2 shows the passive fire prevention system (powder panel) 26 corresponding to the fuel tank 22 in more detail. Other types of passive fire protection systems corresponding to fuel tanks can be used without departing from this scope.

図１を参照すると、乗員室２４にはシート（座席）５０が配置されている。概略的に示すように、コントロールライン４０により、受動防火システム２６とセンサ４２とが接続される。能動防火システム３０は、種々の付加的な他の目的のために作動する付加的なコントローラを備えていてもよい。本発明では、センサ４２によって乗員室に対する侵害が判定されると、能動防火システム３０が起動する。センサ４２は、速動式の光学火炎センサなど周知のセンサとしてもよく、他の形式のセンサを用いてもよい。   Referring to FIG. 1, a seat (seat) 50 is disposed in the passenger compartment 24. As shown schematically, the control line 40 connects the passive fire protection system 26 and the sensor 42. The active fire protection system 30 may include additional controllers that operate for a variety of additional other purposes. In the present invention, the active fire protection system 30 is activated when the sensor 42 determines an infringement on the passenger compartment. The sensor 42 may be a known sensor such as a fast-acting optical flame sensor, or other types of sensors may be used.

車両２０は、例えば、戦車などの地上用車両、あるいは航空機である。さらに、他の種類の車両であっても本発明の範囲内に属する。   The vehicle 20 is, for example, a ground vehicle such as a tank or an aircraft. Furthermore, even other types of vehicles are within the scope of the present invention.

発射体２５は、符号６０に示す箇所においてシェル２１を貫通するとともに、受動防火システム２６、燃料タンク２２および乗員室２４を貫通する。これにより、符号２８で示すように、受動防火システム２６によって乗員室２４および燃料タンク２２にパウダが供給される。さらに、符号３２で示すように、能動防火システム３０よって乗員室２４にパウダが供給される。   The projectile 25 penetrates the shell 21 at a location indicated by reference numeral 60, and penetrates the passive fire prevention system 26, the fuel tank 22, and the passenger compartment 24. As a result, as shown by reference numeral 28, the passive fire prevention system 26 supplies powder to the passenger compartment 24 and the fuel tank 22. Further, as indicated by reference numeral 32, the active fire prevention system 30 supplies powder to the passenger compartment 24.

種々の種類の材料を火炎抑制剤として用いることができる。例えば、乗員室に利用される火炎抑制剤としては、ハロン１３０１などの気化液、あるいはハイドロフルオロカーボン（ＨＦＣ）やペルフルオロケトンなどのハロン置換剤が挙げられる。他の種類の火炎抑制剤として、ＦＭ−２００、ＨＦＣ−２２７ｅａ、ヘプタフルオロプロパン、Ｎｏｖｅｃ１２３０、ＦＫ−５−１−１２、ドデカフルオロ−２−メチルペンタン−３−オン、水、および水と酢酸カリウムなどがある。   Various types of materials can be used as flame suppressants. For example, the flame suppressant used in the passenger compartment includes a vaporized liquid such as halon 1301, or a halon substitute such as hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) or perfluoroketone. Other types of flame suppressants include FM-200, HFC-227ea, heptafluoropropane, Novec 1230, FK-5-1-12, dodecafluoro-2-methylpentan-3-one, water, and water and potassium acetate and so on.

本発明の実施例を図示、説明したが、当業者であれば、本発明の範囲から逸脱しない変更形態を認識されるであろう。そのため、本発明の真の内容および範囲を決定するために以下の請求項の範囲を検討されたい。   While embodiments of the invention have been illustrated and described, those skilled in the art will recognize modifications that do not depart from the scope of the invention. For that reason, the following claims should be studied to determine the true content and scope of this invention.
