Description

Method and system for providing fire alarm including fire location information {Intelligent Fire Alarm System and Management Method based on Fire Location Information}

The present invention relates to providing a fire notification alert, and more particularly, to a system and a method for enabling rapid and safe evacuation to tenants by informing a fire including location information of a fire occurrence when providing a fire notification alert.

It is essential to cope with the risk of fire in apartment buildings including high-rise residential buildings, and to provide accurate and prompt fire alarm notifications. Everyone agrees on the necessity of a fire alarm and management system, and the conventional alarm method using a home device or a fire receiver informs the fire of a fire alarm signal transmitted from the fire detector by a simple method of alarm or lighting of a lamp. In the prior art, the fire occurrence notification to the manager or the fire station by the fire receiver operation is relatively well accomplished. However, more and more tenants need intelligent and effective fire warning.

On the other hand, in order to block the inflow of external noise in each household, it is considered that the quality of the residential environment is high due to the recent development of the building soundproofing technology, but this is a characteristic of the apartment houses where each household forms an enclosed space due to the shape of the space. In addition, in case of fire, it may be difficult to recognize the fire in terms of evacuation safety.

As discussed above, in case of fire, it is necessary to solve the problem of delayed fire recognition in terms of evacuation safety.In the meantime, in the multi-family house, which is characterized by noise blocking and enclosed space, it transmits accurate fire occurrence and fire location information to the tenant for efficient and safe evacuation. It must be induced. In addition, by providing the fire location information, it is possible to solve the problem of the existing countermeasures that cause unnecessary anxiety for the tenant who is not related to the fire occurrence location or less. To this end, the present invention provides a differential alarm system according to the fire location.

The prior art corresponding to the first object of the present invention that relates to a fire alarm system for providing location information is shown in Figures 1a and 1b. Patent Documents 1 and 2, which are representative of FIGS. 1A and 1B, relate to a fire alarm system including a detector provided as a set in a generation and a corridor of an apartment, and a video phone installed in the generation.

FIG. 1A relates to a high-tech apartment fire alarm system and operation method proposed in Patent Document 1, which detects a fire occurrence using a set of detectors installed in an apartment generation and a corridor, and detects a fire occurrence position at an alarm management unit. It is possible to notify and have a portable terminal notification function through a mobile communication network. However, the configuration and function of simply notifying each fire occurrence detector to use an individual position identification type detector, notifying the alarm management unit installed in the management room, etc., and notifying each tenant of the fire occurrence position information is provided. There is no efficient evacuation.

In order to solve this problem, Patent Document 2 of FIG. 1B uses fire occurrence location information in an alarm system, but an alarm that varies depending on the fire occurrence position is simply (1) fire generation generation (2) right and left of fire generation generation (3 Since it is simplified in the order of generation above and below the generation of fire, there is no consideration of constructing an effective evacuation route considering the structural characteristics of MDU and relieving anxiety of other households.

Therefore, the present invention proposes an intelligent fire alarm system to provide efficient detection and guidance of differential evacuation by generation using location information together with accurate detection of the location of fire.

On the other hand, the prior art corresponding to the second object of the present invention that the fire alarm by applying the priorities differentially according to the location information is shown in Patent Document 3 of FIG. Although not related to the fire alarm system, Fig. 1C has a similarity in that it relates to a broadcasting system incorporating priorities in emergency situations such as fires. However, if a fire occurrence is detected, the priority of the emergency broadcast and alarm is configured to increase its priority, and thus, the fire occurrence position suggested by the present invention is detected and the priority is differently differentiated for each generation according to the position to alert or guide the evacuation route. The composition is not presented at all.

As described above, even if a fire occurs due to the characteristics of a multi-unit house that is well soundproof and has a confined space, it is difficult to transmit information inside each household, and a simple fire alarm only increases anxiety for each household and is safe. There is a problem that makes evacuation more difficult. At the present time, when high-rise residential complexes are generalized, it is urgently necessary to provide accurate information using location detection and location information of fire occurrence. However, the related arts described above do not suggest a solution for such a problem at all, and the present invention proposes a generational differential warning considering the location information and the structural characteristics of a multi-family house together with the accurate detection of the occurrence of fire. do.
