That is, when the lid 34 is closed, the smoke generating part 30 is located in the vicinity of the third wall part 13.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the smoke detector test apparatus 1 includes a fan 70 on the bottom 15. The fan 70 is disposed between the bottom 15 of the storage unit 10 and the pedestal 18, and is disposed closer to the center of the storage unit 10 than the smoke generation unit 30. Thereby, the pseudo smoke generated by the smoke generator 30 is efficiently circulated in the test space S by the fan 70.

Further, when viewed from the side, the smoke intrusion port 2a into which the smoke of the smoke detector 2A attached to the second attachment base 62 enters is located in the gap G.
As shown by an arrow F in FIG. 5, the pseudo smoke generated by the smoke generating unit 30 passes through the lower portion of the base 18, rises along the first wall portion 11, passes through the first mounting bases 60 a and 60 b, Heading toward the second mounting base 62. That is, the second mounting base 62 is on the downstream side of the pseudo smoke. An upper bottom 61 is disposed on the downstream side of the pseudo smoke.

The height L1 (dimension in the direction from the bottom 15 toward the upper side of the accommodating portion 10) and the width L2 (dimension in the direction from the second wall 12 to the fourth wall 14) of the communication port 13b are as follows. The outer dimension of the fan 70 is formed larger.
The slide amount D of the lid 34 is set to be larger than the outer dimension of the fan 70 as shown in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the upper lid portion 50 has an accommodation space P, and a display portion 40, an input operation panel 41, and a control portion 42 are provided in the accommodation space P.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the upper lid portion 50 is rotatably supported by the housing portion 10 by the restriction member 51. Further, the upper lid portion 50 is opened by the regulating member 51 so that an angle α formed on the opening 16 side between the end surface 50a of the upper lid portion 50 and the upper surface 10a of the accommodating portion 10 is less than 180 ° in a side view. It is configured to rotate as shown by an arrow in FIG. 8 and to be in a closed state (a state indicated by a one-dot chain line in FIG. 8) in which the upper lid portion 50 is placed on the upper surface of the accommodating portion 10. That is, when carrying the smoke detector test apparatus 1 before or after the inspection, it is possible to make it compact by closing the inner lid portion 20 and closing the upper lid portion 50.

  In addition, the angle α formed on the opening 16 side between the upper lid portion 50 and the accommodating portion 10 is not particularly limited, but is preferably in the range of 105 ° to 120 °. In the present embodiment, the angle α is 110 °. It is.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the operation panel 41 is disposed in the accommodation space P rather than the end surface 50 a of the upper lid portion 50 in a side view. That is, since the operation panel 41 is located inside the end surface 50a of the upper lid portion 50, it is possible to prevent the operation panel 41 from being pushed when the upper lid portion 50 is closed.

  The control unit 42 is electrically connected to the first mounting bases 60a and 60b, the second mounting base 62, and the inner lid mounting bases 21a and 21b via the wiring 43, and operates the operation panel 41. Thereby, it is possible to supply electric power to each attachment base 60a, 60b, 62, 21a, 21b.

  The control unit 42 is connected to the smoke generation unit 30 via the wiring 43, and can operate to operate the operation panel 41 to supply power to the smoke generation unit 30. When electric power is supplied to the smoke generator 30, the smoke generating agent is heated and pseudo smoke is generated.

  The control unit 42 is electrically connected to the fan 70 via the wiring 43, and can operate to operate the operation panel 41 to supply power to the fan 70. The fan 70 is driven to rotate when electric power is supplied.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the wiring 43 extends from the lower portion of the operation panel 41 toward the housing portion 10. When closing the upper lid part 50, the wiring 43 is accommodated in the gap 10 b in the vicinity of the third wall part 13 in the accommodating part 10, so that the wiring 43 is not sandwiched between the upper lid part 50 and the accommodating part 10.

  FIG. 9 shows a block diagram of the smoke detector test apparatus 1 of the present embodiment. The smoke detector test apparatus 1 includes smoke detectors 2A to 2E, a concentration detection unit 64, a display unit 40, a smoke generation unit 30, a fan 70, and a control unit 42. The control unit 42 includes a reception unit 44, a storage unit 45, and a determination unit 46.

When the smoke detectors 2 </ b> A to 2 </ b> E detect and notify the pseudo smoke, the reception unit 44 receives number information for identifying the smoke detectors 2 </ b> A to 2 </ b> E, and stores the received number information in the storage unit 45. As this number information, a number corresponding to the position of the mounting base may be used. When ID information for individually identifying the smoke detector is obtained, this ID information may be used.
In the number information of the present embodiment, the smoke detector 2A corresponds to the number “1”, the smoke detector 2B corresponds to the number “2”, the smoke detector 2C corresponds to the number “3”, The smoke detector 2D corresponds to the number “4”, and the smoke detector 2E corresponds to the number “5”. That is, the position of the mounting base and the number are associated with each other. As described above, when the smoke detectors 2A to 2E are notified, the number information 1 to 5 for identifying the smoke detectors 2A to 2E is sent to the receiving unit 44.

The storage unit 45 receives the density detection signal from the density detection unit 64. Since the unit of smoke density used in the operation test of the smoke detector is expressed in terms of the light extinction rate per meter, it is more preferable to store a value obtained by converting the density detection signal into the current rate. Hereinafter, unless otherwise specified, it is assumed that the density detection value is converted into a light reduction rate. The storage unit 45 stores the number information 1 to 5 identifying the smoke detectors 2A to 2E sent from the receiving unit 44 and the density detection value sent from the density detection unit 64 in association with each other. Specifically, the density detection value is read as needed from the density detection unit 64 and can be displayed on the display unit 40 as the current density. The control unit 42 writes the current density detection value and the number information for identifying the smoke detectors 2A to 2E that have been reported in association with each other at the timing at which the smoke detectors 2A to 2E have reported, and writes them in the storage unit 45. The density detection value stored in the storage unit 45 and associated with the number information can be displayed on the display unit 40 by the control unit 42.
In addition, the number information and the concentration detection value associated with the number information can be stored in a recording medium or output to the outside of the smoke detector test apparatus 1. The control unit 42 can also store the inspection date, the inspector, and the like in the storage unit 45.

The determination unit 46 compares whether or not the concentration detection value when the smoke detectors 2A to 2E detect and report the pseudo smoke is within the reference range with the determination reference value, and determines the smoke detectors 2A to 2E. It is determined whether or not the sensitivity is normal. That is, the determination unit 46 performs automatic determination.
The determination unit 46 determines that the smoke detectors 2A to 2E are normal when the density detection value is within the determination reference value, and determines that the smoke detectors 2A to 2E are not normal when the density detection value is smaller or larger than the determination reference value. In addition, there are 1 type, 2 types, and 3 types of smoke detectors, and the nominal operating concentrations are 5%, 10%, and 15%, respectively, and the judgment reference value for each type is stored in the storage unit 45. ing.

  Based on the determination result of the determination unit 46, the display unit 40 displays a determination result as to whether or not the smoke detectors 2A to 2E detect pseudo smoke within a predetermined range. As shown in FIG. 10, the display section 40 is provided with a display field 40 a in which the density detection values of the smoke detectors 2 </ b> A to 2 </ b> E corresponding to the numbers are displayed. In addition, a pass / fail indicator lamp (light emitting unit) 65 is provided in the position corresponding to each number, that is, in the determination result display area. In the display unit 40, only the display column 40a may be a screen where the display is switched, for example, a liquid crystal display or a segment display, or the entire display unit 40 including a number may be a liquid crystal display or a segment display. .

The pass / fail indicator lamp 65 is normally turned off, but lights when the sensitivity of the smoke detectors 2A to 2E is normal, and blinks when the sensitivity of the smoke detectors 2A to 2E is not normal.
When the density detection value when each smoke detector 2A to 2E is issued is within the reference range, the control unit 42 lights the pass / fail indicator lamp 65. On the other hand, when the density detection values when the smoke detectors 2A to 2E are issued are out of the reference range, the control unit 42 blinks the pass / fail indicator lamp 65. For example, the pass / fail indicator lamp 65 may be a lamp (bulb) or a liquid crystal display.

  When all the smoke detectors 2 </ b> A to 2 </ b> E are notified, the control unit 42 stops the supply of electric power to the mounting bases 60 a, 60 b, 62, 21 a, 21 b, the smoke generation unit 30, and the fan 70.

Next, a method for inspecting a smoke detector using the smoke detector test apparatus 1 will be described with reference to a flowchart shown in FIG.
First, the inspector T removes the five smoke detectors installed on the ceiling or the like in the building. As shown in FIG. 12, the inspector T hangs the shoulder belt 5 on the shoulder so that the display unit 40 is positioned in front of the smoke detector test apparatus 1. As shown in FIG. 1, five smoke detectors are attached to the first attachment bases 60a and 60b, the second attachment base 62, and the inner lid attachment bases 21a and 21b, respectively (step S1). Further, each of the attached smoke detectors inputs using the operation panel 41 of one type, two types, or three types.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 4, when the inspector T closes the inner lid 20, the magnet switch 22 is turned on, and the controller 42 determines that the inner lid 20 has been closed. The inspector T operates the operation panel 41, and the control unit 42 supplies power to each of the mounting bases 60a, 60b, 62, 21a, 21b, the smoke generation unit 30, and the fan 70 (step S2). ). When the smoke generating unit 30 is heated, the water-soluble liquid as a smoke generating agent is vaporized. As shown by an arrow F in FIG. 5, the vaporized pseudo smoke passes along the lower portion of the base 18 toward the first wall portion 11 and rises along the first wall portion 11 by the rotation of the fan 70. The raised pseudo smoke passes through the mesh-shaped rectifying plate 19, a part of the pseudo smoke enters from the smoke intrusion port 2a of the smoke detectors 2B, 2C, 2D, and 2E, and the remaining pseudo smoke passes through the gap G. And enters from the smoke intrusion port 2a of the smoke detector 2A.

  When the smoke detectors 2A to 2E detect the pseudo smoke, they output an alarm signal. At this time, the number information for identifying the smoke detectors 2A to 2E that have been issued is sent to the storage unit 45 via the reception unit 44, and the concentration detection value detected by the concentration detection unit 64 is sent to the storage unit 45. . Then, the number information for identifying the smoke detectors 2A to 2E and the density detection value are associated with each other and stored in the storage unit 45 (step S3).

  Specifically, when the smoke detector 2A outputs a notification signal, the control unit 42 stores the smoke detector signal of the smoke detector 2A and the concentration detection value when the smoke detector 2A has reported. Write to 45. Thereby, the smoke detector 2A, that is, the number “1” and the density detection value 5 are associated with each other and stored in the storage unit 45. The control unit 42 determines whether all five smoke detectors 2A to 2E have been issued (step S4).

  When the control unit 42 determines that all five smoke detectors 2A to 2E have not been issued (NO in step S4), the control unit 42 returns to step S3.

  Subsequently, when the smoke detector 2C outputs a notification signal, number information for identifying the smoke detector 2C and a density detection value when the smoke detector 2C has issued are sent to the storage unit 45. The smoke detector 2C, that is, the number “3” and the density detection value 9 are associated with each other and stored in the storage unit 45.

  Subsequently, when the smoke detector 2B issues a report, the number “2” and the density detection value 11 are associated with each other and stored in the storage unit 45. Subsequently, when the smoke detector 2D issues a report, the number “4” and the density detection value 15 are associated with each other and stored in the storage unit 45. Subsequently, when the smoke detector 2E issues a report, the number “5” and the density detection value 16 are associated with each other and stored in the storage unit 45. In this way, all the five smoke detectors 2A to 2E are notified, and the number information for identifying the notified smoke detectors 2A to 2E corresponds to the concentration detection value detected by the concentration detector 64. Attached and stored in the storage unit 45.

  Next, when the control unit 42 determines that all five smoke detectors 2A to 2E have been issued (YES in step S4), the control unit 42 causes the mounting bases 60a, 60b, 62, 21a, and 21b to be detected. Then, the supply of electric power to the smoke generator 30 and the fan 70 is stopped (step S5).

  Next, the control unit 42 compares the detected density value with the determination reference value sent by the density detector 64 (step S6). For example, one reference judgment value is set in a range from 3 to 7 and two reference judgment values are set in a range from 6 to 14 and three reference judgment values are set in a range from 8 to 22 Yes. When there are two types of smoke detectors 2A to 2C and three types of smoke detectors 2D and 2E, the control unit 42 detects the concentration detection values of the smoke detectors with numbers “1”, “2”, and “3”. Is in the range of 6 to 14, and it is determined whether the concentration detection values of the smoke detectors with numbers “4” and “5” are in the range of 8 to 22 or less. As a result, it is determined that the sensitivity of the smoke detectors 2B, 2C, 2D, and 2E with the numbers “2”, “3”, “4”, and “5” is normal (pass) (YES in step S6). As shown in FIG. 13, the control unit 42 displays the density detection values corresponding to the numbers 2, 3, 4, and 5 in the display column 40a and lights the pass / fail indicator lamp 65 (step S7-1).

  On the other hand, since the density detection value of the number “1” is 5, the control unit 42 determines that the sensitivity of the smoke detector 2A is not normal (failed) (NO in step S6), and corresponds to the number 1. The pass / fail indicator lamp 65 is blinked (step S7-2). In addition, the control part 42 may memorize | store the pass / fail determination result of smoke detectors 2A-2E in the memory | storage part 45, and can record it on a recording medium as needed, or can output it outside.

  When the pass / fail result of the smoke detectors 2A to 2E is displayed, the inner lid portion 20 is opened, the smoke detectors 2A to 2E are removed from the mounting bases 60a, 60b, 62, 21a, and 21b, and returned to a predetermined position. Thus, the inspection of the sensitivity of the smoke detectors 2A to 2E is completed.

Furthermore, it is possible to perform an inspection or move to the next inspection place with the upper lid 50 opened.

Note that the first belt mounting portion 3 on the inner lid portion 20 side may not necessarily be disposed on the near side of the second belt mounting portion 4, and the first belt mounting portion 3 may be the second belt mounting. It may not be arranged on the bottom 15 side from the part 4. That is, if the first belt attaching portion 3 is fixed to the first wall portion 11 and the second belt attaching portion 4 is fixed to the third wall portion 13, the inspector T is shouldering the shoulder belt 5. The smoke detectors 2A to 2E can be inspected smoothly.
Although the smoke detector testing apparatus 1 is configured to include the inner lid portion 20 and the upper lid portion 50, only one of them may be provided. When the upper lid part 50 is not provided and the middle lid part 20 is provided, the position of the display part 40 is not particularly limited. In the above embodiment, the display unit 40 is attached to the upper lid unit 50, but the display unit 40 may be provided in the storage unit 10. For example, the display unit 40 may be provided on the upper part of the inner lid part 20, or the inner lid part 20 may be configured as a double door so that a smoke detector can be attached to the back side of the first inner lid. The display unit 40 may be provided on the inner lid. After the inner lid portion 20 is configured to be approximately half the length of the above embodiment, a top plate is provided on the upper surface of the test space S where the inner lid portion 20 is not closed, and the display unit 40 is provided thereon. You may do it.
Moreover, although the accommodating part 10 was made into the rectangular shape in planar view, it is not restricted to this, A trapezoid or a polygon more than a pentagon may be sufficient.

The 2nd belt attaching part 4 should just be provided.

  Further, as the smoke detectors 2A to 2E, smoke detectors that can be connected to the respective mounting bases 60a, 60b, 62, 21a, and 21b are to be tested. In addition to smoke detectors that can be connected to a general mounting base, there are small smoke detectors called petite types. Since the shape of the mounting base is different for the petite type smoke detector, it cannot be tested as it is, but the inner lid base panel to which the inner lid mounting bases 21a and 21b are attached is removed from the inner lid and installed for the petite type. By attaching a base panel for the petit type inner lid to which the base is attached to the inner lid, the petit type smoke detector can be tested. In addition, although the shape of the smoke detector mounting base varies from manufacturer to manufacturer, it is possible to test smoke detectors with different mounting base shapes by replacing the base panel with the mounting base with a mountable shape. It becomes.

In addition, when the density detection value when the smoke detectors 2A to 2E are issued is within the reference range, the pass / fail indicator lamp 65 is turned on, and the concentrations when the smoke detectors 2A to 2E are issued are displayed. When the detected value is outside the reference range, the pass / fail indicator lamp 65 is blinked, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the pass / fail indicator lamp 65 may be left off when the concentration detection value when the smoke detectors 2A to 2E are issued is outside the reference range.
In addition, the test ends when it is determined that all five smoke detectors have been issued. However, the test may be ended by determining whether all smoke detectors attached to the mounting base have been issued. good. The determination as to whether or not the smoke detector is attached is performed as follows, for example. After installing the smoke detector, before starting the test, operate the operation panel 41 to input whether it is attached to the attachment base, or to input the type when the smoke detector is attached. It is determined that it is not installed. Alternatively, after the start of the test, the attachment base to which the smoke detector is not attached may be disconnected, so that a disconnection detection is performed to determine whether or not the smoke detector is attached.

  Moreover, although the display on the display unit 40 is configured to display the determination results of all the smoke detectors 2A to 2E collectively, the determination results of the smoke detectors 2A to 2E may be displayed one by one. In this case, the determination result of a desired smoke detector may be displayed by operating the operation panel 41. In addition, the determination result of the smoke detector may be sequentially displayed at predetermined time intervals in order from the smoke detector 2A.

  When the magnet switch is in the OFF state, that is, when the inner lid portion 20 is not closed, even if the operation panel 41 is operated, the control unit 42 causes the mounting bases 60a, 60b, 62, 21a, and 21b to be smoked. The generator 30 and the fan 70 may be configured not to be supplied with electric power.

  Further, in order to associate the smoke detector being inspected with the displayed number, a number may be assigned near the mounting base.

In addition to the above embodiment, a fixing portion may be provided in the upper lid portion 50 and the accommodating portion 10 and a mechanism for applying a force in the opening direction to the upper lid portion 50 may be provided. For example, a torque hinge that applies a force in the opening direction to the hinge portion between the upper lid portion 50 and the accommodating portion 10 may be employed. By providing such a mechanism, it is possible to prevent unintentional closing of the upper lid portion 50, and smoke detection caused by closing the upper lid portion 50 while the inner lid portion 20 is opened and the smoke detector is attached. It is possible to prevent contact between the container and the upper lid 50. Further, a wall surface may be erected from the back side of the inner lid part to function as a protective plate. The protective plate is in the downward direction when the inner lid portion 20 is closed and is accommodated in the test space S, is in the upward direction when the inner lid portion 20 is opened, and is present on the closing path of the upper lid portion 50. It is possible to prevent contact between the smoke detector and the upper lid 50 that is generated when the upper lid 50 is closed while the sensor is attached.
