Fire Escape Guidance System and Method}

The present invention relates to a fire evacuation guidance system and method, and more particularly, to receive a fire fact from a P-type receiver and deliver it to the manager terminal, while guiding the evacuation by checking the location of a user (evacuee) in the building from the manager terminal It relates to a system and method for

In general, a fire is a disaster that causes large-scale human and material damage, and in order to effectively prevent such damage to human life and material damage, preventing the occurrence of a fire is the top priority.

However, it is practically impossible to prevent all fires because they occur due to various causes.

Therefore, in the event of a fire, it is important to quickly detect it and evacuate it quickly.

A fire detector is a device that can automatically detect the occurrence of a fire and send an alarm to a receiver, and the transmitter is a device for notifying a person when a person directly discovers a fire.

Among the various transmitters, the P-type class 1 transmitter has a response lamp that can confirm that a person has made a call and has a telephone function so that communication between the receiver and the transmitter is possible. .

There are five types of receivers: P-type, R-type, M-type, GP-type, and GR-type. Among them, the P-type receiver receives a signal from a detector or transmitter directly or through a repeater as a common signal and generates an alarm. is the receiver

A common signal line in any one monitoring area runs from the detector and transmitter to the P-type receiver.

If the number of monitoring areas is large, the number of signal lines is also large, but the wiring is simple and inexpensive, so it is widely used in small buildings.

On the other hand, in case of a fire, emergency exits provided in buildings so that people in the building can evacuate quickly are required to be installed in buildings where many people are active, such as schools, companies, theaters, and apartments.

In order to quickly and safely exit the building through these emergency exits, emergency guidance lights are installed in the emergency exits and in the passages leading to the emergency exits.

However, due to the structural characteristics of modern buildings that are becoming increasingly complex and large, if power is cut off due to an explosion in case of an actual fire, or if it is difficult to identify emergency guidance lights due to smoke, it is not possible to quickly find an emergency exit or even if an emergency exit is found, it is not a safe escape route. The number of fatal accidents is increasing due to the inability to exit the building.

As such, when a fire occurs inside a building, the victims are confused and their judgment is clouded, making it difficult to find the proper location of the entrance. .

However, among them, since the P-type receiver receives the fire detection signal as a common signal, the fire monitoring system built with the P-type receiver does not know the exact location of the fire and the location of the evacuee, so there was a problem in that it was not possible to evacuate the evacuees urgently and safely. .

In addition, when a part "includes" a certain component, this means that other components may be further included, rather than excluding other components, unless otherwise stated.

1 is a block diagram of a fire evacuation guidance system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in Figure 1, the fire evacuation guidance system 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention is a P-type receiver (200a, 200b, ..., 200n) (hereinafter '200'), the manager terminals (300a, 300b, ... ,300n) (hereinafter '300'), indoor repeaters (500a, 500b, ..., 500n) (hereinafter '500'), control server 600 and user terminals 700a, 700b, ..., 700n (hereinafter '700') ) is connected through the network 400, and in particular, the indoor repeater 500 and the user terminal 700 perform short-range wireless communication.

Here, the manager terminal 300 and the user terminal 700 download and install the fire evacuation guidance app, respectively, but the manager terminal 300 and the fire evacuation guidance app installed with the fire evacuation guidance app and the fire evacuation guidance app installed on the user terminal 700 are Its function is different, and it operates in administrator mode and user mode respectively.

In particular, the fire evacuation guidance app installed in the user terminal 700 scans the QR code displayed on the indoor repeater 500 in the building 10 and downloads it, and through this, the manager terminal 500 or the control server 600 ) can be registered.

In addition, the fire evacuation guidance app of the manager terminal may be executed by the manager, or may be automatically executed when receiving a fire detection signal from the P-type receiver or the user terminal.

In addition, the fire evacuation guidance app of the user's terminal may be executed by the user or may be automatically executed when a fire signal is received from the manager terminal.

As shown in FIG. 2 , the P-type receiver 200a has a plurality of detectors 211 and transmitters 212 and a single common signal line 213 provided for each monitoring area 210 in the building 10 through one common signal line 213 . Connected.

The P-type receiver 200a may identify the alarm signal received through the common signal line 213 and display the identified situation to the outside.

In addition, the P-type receiver 200a may generate a disaster prevention facility control signal corresponding to the identified situation.

And the P-type receiver 200a registers and stores a location table for generating a remote transmission message therein, and the location information of the monitoring area 210 to which the detector 211 or the transmitter 212 that generated the alarm signal belongs. A remote transmission message is generated including, and the remote transmission message is transmitted to the manager terminal (300a).

Again in FIG. 1 , the manager terminal 300 stores the floor plan of the building under the jurisdiction of the fire evacuation guidance system 100 , evacuation route information, emergency exit location information, and the like, and shares it with the control server 600 .

In addition, the manager terminal 600 stores terminal information (phone number, etc.) of the user of the building having jurisdiction, so that, in the event of a fire, the user terminal 700 is notified of the fact of the fire, so that users outside the building as well as inside the building can cope with it.

For example, a user outside the building is notified of the occurrence of a fire and informs the manager terminal 300 of important facts (for example, the location of an infant or patient or the location of flammable materials) through the user terminal 700 to extinguish the fire. This should be referred to during rescue.

When the fire evacuation guidance app is executed in the manager terminal 300, the floor plan of the building is output, and at this time, the current location information of the user in the building is identified through communication with the indoor repeater 500 and displayed on the floor plan, and the fire point ( location) and the user's current location, an evacuation route is created, and based on the evacuation route, evacuation is induced to the user's terminal through a phone call, text message, video, or image (a floor plan showing the evacuation route).

In addition, the manager terminal 300 may determine the number of users (number of persons) in the building through communication with the indoor repeater, and notify the fire department or 119 center so that they can be used during rescue or fire suppression.

The control server 600 manages a plurality of P-type receivers 200 and a plurality of manager terminals 300 within a jurisdiction over the network 400 and shares information with the plurality of manager terminals 300 .

In addition, the control server 600 stores geographic information of the jurisdiction and location information of the detector 211 or transmitter 212, the indoor repeater 500, and the user terminal 700 in the jurisdiction.

In addition, the control server 600 detects the current location of the user in the building 10 like the manager terminal 300 and displays it on the floor plan, and determines the evacuation route in the building based on the location (point) of the fire and the current location of the user. Based on this evacuation route, it is possible to induce evacuation to the user terminal through a phone call, text message, video or image (a floor plan showing the evacuation route).

In addition, the control server 600 stores and manages various information, communication contents, fire history, etc. of each manager terminal 300 , the P-type receiver 100 , and the indoor repeater 500 .

The indoor repeater 500 uses a short-distance wireless communication method such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, or IoT (Internet of Thing) wireless equipment, etc. The location information of an indoor repeater, such as a repeater, is provided to the user terminal 700 located in the service (jurisdiction) area of the indoor repeater.

For example, in normal times, the indoor repeater 700 generates a beacon signal and transmits it to the user terminal 700 to extract the location information of the user from the user terminal 700 and send it to the manager terminal 300 or the control server 600 . to be able to register.

In addition, the indoor repeater 500 allows the user terminal 700 to communicate with the manager terminal 300 , the control server 600 or the P-type receiver 200 through the network 400 .

For example, when the user detects a fire before the detector 211 in case of a fire, the user terminal 700 may transmit a fire report signal to the P-type receiver 200 or the manager terminal 300 .

As shown in FIG. 3 , the indoor repeater 500n stores its own installation location information and is installed in the building 10 .

When the indoor repeater 500n is, for example, a Wi-Fi repeater, it is connected to the network 400 through the modem 510a and generates a beacon signal in the Wi-Fi module 520a having an antenna to generate a beacon signal for a plurality of user terminals within the service area ( 700) to transmit a beacon signal.

In addition, a QR code is displayed on the indoor repeater 500n, and by scanning the QR code in the user terminal 700, the fire evacuation guidance app can be downloaded and installed.

Again in FIG. 1 , the user terminal 700 normally registers its own location by communicating with the indoor repeater 500 , and transmitting it to the manager terminal 300 or the control server 600 .

When the fire evacuation guidance app installed in the user terminal 700 is executed, the floor plan of the building to which the user belongs together with a plurality of buttons is output on the screen. is selected (displayed), a fire report signal is transmitted to the P-type receiver 200, the manager terminal 300, or the control server 600 together with the location information of the fire point.

In addition, if the user's current location is selected (displayed) in the plan view after clicking the current location button among the plurality of buttons, the user's current location information is transmitted to the manager terminal 300 or the control server 600, and based on this, the user's current location information is transmitted. The manager terminal 300 or the control server 600 may generate an evacuation route and transmit it to the user terminal 700 in the form of an image, for example, and the user terminal 700 may receive it and display the evacuation route on the floor plan.

The user can evacuate by looking at the evacuation route displayed on the floor plan.

In addition, when the evacuation button is directly clicked without clicking the current location button among the plurality of buttons, an evacuation route may be generated and transmitted to the user terminal based on the location information normally registered in the manager terminal 300 or the control server 600 . .

4 is a flowchart illustrating a fire evacuation induction method according to an embodiment of the present invention.

When a fire occurs in a building, etc., the detector 211 detects the fire and transmits it to the P-type receiver 200 through the transmitter 212 and the common signal line 213 (S402).

In addition, when the user in the building detects the occurrence of a fire rather than the detector 211, run the fire evacuation guidance app of the user terminal 700 and press the report button to send the fire point and the fire report signal, for example, to the P-type receiver ( 200) (S412).

The P-type receiver 200 that has received the fire detection signal through the detector 211 generates an alarm signal while generating a fire report signal. Location information of the monitoring area 210 to which the detector 211 or the transmitter 212 belongs. A remote transmission message (fire report message) including

In addition, the P-type receiver 200 receiving the fire detection signal through the user terminal 700 in step S404 generates a remote transmission message (fire report message) including location information of the fire point, and the remote transmission message may be transmitted to the manager terminal 300 or the control server 600 .

That is, the P-type receiver 200 receives a fire report signal from the detector 211 or the user terminal 700 and transmits a fire report message to the manager terminal 300 or the control server 600 .

The manager terminal 300 that has received the fire report message automatically runs the fire evacuation guidance app in the manager mode to notify all user terminals registered to them of the fact that a fire has occurred, and users (evacuees) registered in the fire building. ) is checked (S406).

Here, the user's location may be a normal location registered by the user through the user terminal 700, or may be a current location in case of a fire.

A method of confirming the user's usual location or current location in case of fire will be described later with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6 .

Subsequently, the manager terminal 300 generates an evacuation route based on the location information of the monitoring area to which the detector or transmitter belongs or location information of the fire point, and the user's usual location information or current location information in case of a fire confirmed in step S406. (S408).

In this case, when there are multiple users (evacuees), a different evacuation route may be created for each user.

And the manager terminal 300 induces the user in the building to evacuate through the user terminal 700 based on the evacuation route.

At this time, the evacuation guidance method may be induced by calling the user terminal and explaining it in words, sending it through a text message, or transmitting a floor plan image or evacuation route data indicating the evacuation route.

5 is a flowchart showing a schematic method for checking the location of a user in a building in normal times.

First, the indoor repeater 500 acquires its installed location information from a location information providing device (not shown) (S502).

Next, the indoor repeater 500 generates a beacon signal of a short-range wireless communication method including the location information it has acquired, and then transmits it to the user terminal 700 located within the service area of the indoor repeater 500 through an antenna. (S504).

The user terminal 700 receives the beacon signal transmitted from the indoor repeater 500, extracts location information, and transmits the extracted location information to the manager terminal 300 (S506).

At this time, when a beacon signal is transmitted from the indoor repeater 500, the user terminal 700 provides short-distance wireless communication such as WiFi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, or Internet of Things (IoT). It automatically turns on the communication module of the method and receives the beacon signal of the short-range wireless communication method transmitted from the surroundings.

Next, the manager terminal 300 searches the database (DB) established based on the location information received from the user terminal 700 (S508), and the user terminal 700 belongs to a service area of a certain indoor repeater 500. By determining whether there is a user terminal 700, it is possible to check and register the normal location of the user terminal 700 (S510).

6 is a flowchart illustrating a method for displaying the location of a user (evacuee) in a building in case of a fire.

When a fire occurs, the user runs the fire evacuation guidance app of the user terminal 700, or the fire evacuation guidance app is automatically executed upon notification of the occurrence of a fire from the manager terminal 300, so that the floor plan and multiple A button is output to the screen (S602).

Next, when the user clicks a current location button among a plurality of buttons and marks (selects) his/her current location on the floor plan, the user's current location information is transmitted to the manager terminal 300 (S604).

The manager terminal 300 checks the user's current location information transmitted from each user terminal 700 and displays it on the floor plan of each floor (S606).

At this time, the location information of the fire point or the monitoring area where the fire report signal is generated is also displayed on the floor plan.

Although the technical idea of the present invention has been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, the preferred embodiment of the present invention is exemplarily described and does not limit the present invention.

In addition, it is a clear fact that anyone with ordinary skill in the art can make various modifications and imitations within the scope of the technical idea of the present invention.
