Description

Fire detector with light function and fire detection system using the same {Fire detector with light function and fire detection system using the same}

The present invention relates to a fire detector with a superhuman function and a fire detection system using the same, and more particularly, to install a separate additional device by automatically switching to a visitor notification mode and a fire alarm mode according to the presence of a visitor and notifying with an LED. The present invention relates to a fire detector with a superhuman light function capable of alerting outdoor visitors and indoor fires to the hearing impaired or the elderly without the use of the device, and a fire detection system using the same.

As the population ages rapidly, the proportion of the elderly population aged 65 or older is increasing, and the number of people with acquired disabilities is increasing.

In general, an increase in the number of the elderly and the disabled is evidence that the number of people active indoors is increasing, but noise generated indoors prevents visitors from hearing the doorbell when they press the doorbell, or the deaf or visually impaired There is a problem in that a notification device capable of transmitting information about a visitor's visit is insufficient.

In addition, when the elderly are at home, there is a problem in that no matter how loud the doorbell notification sound is set, the sound signal cannot be clearly heard due to noise generated in the room and around the house.

Therefore, the information visited outdoors can be provided to the disabled and the elderly indoors.

The notification device is composed of multiple channels so that it can be located in each indoor space rather than just one installed indoors, and a method to transmit different notification sounds or light sources according to the purpose of the visitor's visit is required. However, technology capable of transmitting visitor information to guardians is also required.

Korean Registered Patent No. 10-1678396 discloses a technology related to a calling system for the hearing-impaired that notifies the hearing-impaired of a visitor's call by flickering the lights.

However, in the prior literature, it is unclear what kind of communication means the wall pad and the light switch are connected to, and when connected by wired communication, there are problems in that installation and maintenance costs are expensive due to a complicated line structure and that it is not visually pleasing.
