Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to a bi-directional emergency evacuation guidance system using a fiber optic light source combined with a fire detection sensor,

The present invention relates to an optical fiber light source type bi-directional emergency evacuation system combined with a fire detection sensor, and more particularly, to a bi-directional emergency evacuation system using an LED set as a light source, So that it is easy to maintain and repair the device, and the LED set included in the LED light source distributor is electronically controlled by the control unit, thereby simplifying the configuration of the entire apparatus and guiding it in a bidirectional or constant direction .

In particular, the present invention includes a control unit for controlling the LED set using a detection sensor for detecting the occurrence of fire and smoke, a sensor receiving unit for receiving the detection result from the detection sensor, and a control content calculated by calculating the detection result of the sensor receiving unit To a two-way emergency evacuation system with a fiber optic light source coupled with a fire detection sensor, which is advantageous in guiding a safe evacuation route in an emergency situation where evacuation is needed in a short period of time and reducing the damage caused by a disaster.

For underground facilities or large buildings where external light is difficult to enter, it is essential to indicate the direction of the exit. In many cases, an emergency evacuation device is used in addition to the general illumination device.

Generally, the emergency evacuation device is turned on in conjunction with the general illumination device or individually in an emergency state, but it is difficult to exert its function when smoke or smoke is filled inside the building due to fire or natural disaster.

In order to solve the above problem, Korean Patent Registration No. 1216225 ("Emergency evacuation illumination device using multiple optical fibers, 2012.12.20.") Has been proposed, and the above- And the plurality of optical fiber light emitting parts induce the direction of the exit direction of the rotary filter by rotation.

The emergency evacuation induction device using the plurality of optical fibers has a relatively simple structure because a plurality of optical fibers that emit light by receiving light through one light source are used to guide the emitters of the optical fibers in parallel, have.

However, in the emergency evacuation guiding device using the plurality of optical fibers, there is a risk of failure if interfering with the fire detector and foreign substances such as dust are stuck in the rotating filter guiding the exit through flickering in an emergency.

In addition, if the rotating filter is broken, it is difficult to repair and maintain it, and it is difficult to repair the rotating filter, and the corresponding management cost increases.

Of course, the conventional emergency evacuation flow apparatus using a plurality of optical fibers has an advantage that the direction of the emergency exit can be easily grasped and evacuated in the event of a disaster.

However, underground shopping malls, department stores, skyscrapers and other buildings have a large area and a large number of emergency exits.

In more detail, flames and smoke may occur in the event of a disaster, and situations may arise where the piloted exits do not pass through flames and smoke.

If the area facing the above situation is a narrow or low-rise building, there is a high probability that it will escape from the building through another exit on the opposite side of the building or evacuated by a fire truck equipped with a high-grade ladder, Since buildings are difficult to evacuate using elevated ladders and skyscrapers have a large area corresponding to their height, it is not only difficult to find other emergency exits, but also has a problem that the traveling time becomes long, .

In the case of a fire, the direction of the fire varies according to the flow of air by the flow of air, and the moving direction of the smoke differs according to the flow of the air. Therefore, in the skyscraper having many emergency exit stairs and the number of floors, And in response to this, there is a demand for a guidance system capable of safely evacuating flames and smoke when a disaster occurs in a skyscraper.
