Description

{Apparatus for spraying water on the underside of an electric vehicle including support assembly}

The present invention relates to a bottom sprinkler device for an electric vehicle including a support assembly, and more specifically, to a bottom sprinkler device for an electric vehicle including a support assembly that can enter the bottom of an electric vehicle and spray water directly onto a battery in a fire. It's about devices.

Generally, unlike gasoline vehicles, electric vehicles include a battery, a power conversion device (inverter), and an electric motor.

Among these, the battery is an energy storage device that stores electricity to drive the electric motor and drive the vehicle, and the power conversion device is a device that converts the electric energy of the battery to generate the necessary driving force, and the electric motor is operated by the power conversion device. It is rotated and driven by converted electrical energy, allowing the electric vehicle to run.

These electric vehicles have the advantage of being eco-friendly, but they have the fatal disadvantage of making it difficult to extinguish fires. Batteries, which are energy storage devices applied to electric vehicles, have high-capacity battery cells densely arranged in accordance with space and weight constraints and are installed in a sealed form to minimize physical shock from the outside, so penetration of fire extinguishing agents in the event of a fire Evolution is relatively difficult.

Therefore, if a fire occurs in the battery of an electric vehicle due to pressure, overheating, vibration, shock, short circuit, overcharging, or discharging, the separator, which is a safety device, is damaged, resulting in a thermal runaway phenomenon in which the temperature rises by thousands to tens of thousands of degrees, and the battery is damaged. As the fire has the characteristic of not being extinguished until it is completely burned out, there is no choice but to extinguish the external flames with fire extinguishing water until the fire is completely burned out. Due to the thermal runaway fire characteristics of these electric vehicles, after the fire is activated, It is impossible to extinguish the fire until it is completely destroyed.

Additionally, it is known that when a fire occurs in an electric vehicle, more than 10 times more water is required than that required to extinguish a fire in an internal combustion engine vehicle.

As an example of a method to facilitate fire extinguishment of electric vehicles, Republic of Korea Patent Registration No. 10-1998280 (Public Notice 20190709) includes multiple lithium-ion batteries stored in the lower space of the vehicle body of an electric vehicle, and multiple nozzles on one side. and an electric vehicle battery unit in which a fire detection sensor is installed; A compressed gas cylinder installed in the electric vehicle and storing compressed inert gas; A plurality of fire extinguisher containers installed in the electric vehicle and storing fire extinguishing powder; It consists of one main pipe connected to the gas injection port of the compressed gas cylinder and branch pipes branching from the main pipe and having the same number as the number of fire extinguisher cylinders, and a main pipe and a branch pipe first branching from the main pipe. A compressed gas pipe installed with a compressed gas valve that opens and closes the main pipe; A fire extinguisher pipe at one end connected to the fire extinguishing powder injection port of the fire extinguisher cylinder, at one side of which a branch pipe of the compressed gas pipe is connected to form a T shape, and at the other end connected to each nozzle of the electric vehicle battery unit; and a control unit that keeps the compressed gas valve closed in normal times and opens the compressed gas valve when a fire detection signal is received from a fire detection sensor to inject compressed gas from the gas injection port. .

Republic of Korea Patent Publication No. 10-2021-0057278 (published 20210521) discloses a volume expansion detection sensor mounted on each cell to detect expansion of a cell of an energy storage system of an electric vehicle, and expansion detected by the volume expansion detection sensor. A cooling means for spraying a fire extinguishing agent to cool the temperature of the cell, a fire detection means for detecting a fire inside the energy storage system, and a fire detection means for extinguishing the fire when the fire detection means detects a fire inside the energy storage system. A fire extinguishing device for an energy storage system for an electric vehicle is disclosed, which includes a fire extinguishing means for spraying a fire extinguishing agent.

However, the conventional fire extinguishing device for electric vehicles as described above only prevents battery fires from being activated by detecting and extinguishing battery fires at an early stage, and does not include a component for extinguishing fires in already activated electric vehicles. There is a problem that does not exist.

The 2-1 support cylinder 522 is formed in a cylindrical shape, the upper end (522a) is bent radially outward and locked with the second injection pipe 220 in the vertical direction, and the lower end (522b) is bent inward. It is bent to provide locking with the 2-2 support cylinder 524 in the vertical direction.

The 2-2 supporter cylinder 522 is formed in a cylindrical shape, and the upper end 524a is bent radially outward and locked with the 2-1 supporter cylinder 522 in the vertical direction, and the second supporter friction Member 526 is coupled to the lower end 524b.

The second supporter friction member 526 may have a plurality of protrusions 526a disposed downward, and the protrusions 526a may increase friction with the ground.

Since the locking assembly 400 limits the relative movement of the vehicle and the lower sprinkler device, and the support assembly 500 limits the relative movement of the lower sprinkler device and the ground, even if the hydraulic pressure of the fire extinguishing fluid is strongly sprayed, the fire is extinguished. It has the advantage of firmly preventing movement from the installed position.
