Abstract

In the case of small-scale building sprinkler devices using tap water, the securing of tap water pressure and quantity is a prerequisite. However, in most cases, water pressure and quantity are insufficient. In the case of existing buildings, spaces for installing such devices are also insufficient. Furthermore, in the event of large-scale disasters, essential utilities are cut off. Provided is a sprinkler device such that efficient use is made of tap water and first-aid firefighting capability, and that diversity is given to an installation space and the securing of potable water. A sprinkler pipe is connected in such a way as to make use of a control valve for a pertinent tap water pipe among those laid into two or more houses, with the result that a required water quantity is secured. A tap water storage tank is installed. A water quantity required for first-aid firefighting is secured by means of a water storage type water supply device wherein inert gas or compressed air is pressurized. Variability is provided to the installation space by a means for performing dual-purpose supply of tap water, by joint ownership of a water tank by the houses, and by the installation of a piping type water storage tank. This variability is accommodated for by this apparatus. Furthermore, the apparatus provided works even in the case of a single house, and is capable of performing a potable water storage function and holding a water quantity required for first-aid firefighting.

Description

Fire extinguishing equipment for small buildings

The present invention relates to a small-scale building sprinkler and tap water storage.

Conventionally, there is a sprinkler device that uses water (see Patent Document 1). Among these, a building with a primary pipe diameter of 40A or more branched from the water main is practically sufficient, but there is a possibility of water theft. In addition, when tap water of the same system branched from the water supply pipe is used for bath water supply from other branch taps, a shortage of water occurs. (See Patent Document 2)
Further, when the meter aperture is 25 A or less, there is a drawback that the amount of water is insufficient even if a pressure increasing pump is added.
In small buildings, apartment buildings and multi-purpose buildings, there are problems such as the fact that meters are individually installed, the water diameter is small, and there is no power supply for the booster pump.
As a measure to improve this, there is a method to improve the power supply for the pressure booster pump by setting the water pipe and water meter to 40A or more, and if the water pressure is not enough. Each equipment cost occurred.

There is no need for a power supply for pressurization, ensuring the amount of water required for the sprinkler equipment, ensuring stable water pressure, and securing a sprinkler device and potable water that can be extinguished in the initial stage even if the water supply and electricity are interrupted (interruption of the lifeline). Let it be an issue.

The present invention takes into account the case where tap water is interrupted, such as in the event of a disaster, and has a water storage structure for tap water, which is solved by a device that does not require electric power by supplying water by the pressure of inert gas or compressed air. . When using tap water, drinking water can be secured with a structure in which tap water does not come into contact with air or gas. In addition, the water storage structure can be shared by connecting and collecting the sprinkler pipes of each door, and even if the water meter of each door is small, a device that can secure the required water amount and water pressure by the collection of sprinkler pipes is provided.

The sprinkler device of the present invention has the advantage that the greater the number of collective units, the easier it is to secure the amount and water pressure of tap water, and the equipment cost of each unit is reduced. In addition, in the case of an apparatus using a tube used for pressurization of the water storage structure, since new tap water is always secured, there is an advantage that potable water can be secured in an emergency.

Even if the water amount or water pressure of tap water is small due to the fluctuation of the pressure of the sensing pipe, the sprinkler device is started and tap water is always newly stored or used as a fire extinguishing liquid, and the tap water is low or the water supply is cut off. The purpose of enabling initial fire extinguishing was realized by preventing the occurrence of water (stagnant water) and backflow in the tap water. In the fire fighting equipment, the fire extinguishing equipment and the alarm equipment need to have linked functions. However, since the main body of the present invention is the method for implementing the drinking water storage and the sprinkler device, the alarm equipment of (each example) other than (Example 14) The description of the linkage function and sensor is omitted.
There are dry and wet methods for maintaining pressure in the sprinkler piping. In this method, pressure or vacuum is maintained with compressed air or inert gas. It is difficult to make a wet determination. It represents not pressure maintenance by tap water or a sprinkler pump but pressure maintenance by pressure of compressed air or inert gas regardless of the presence or absence of residual water in the sprinkler piping.
Even if the sprinkler piping is filled with water and the pressure is maintained with compressed air or inert gas, the equipment configuration is the same and no difference occurs in the operating situation. In the description of the embodiments,

numerals

13 and 14 in the figure are integrated and expressed as a decompression device.
In addition, there are five types of storage tanks that always store new water, spherical and pipe-type. If not specified, it is expressed as a storage tank. In FIGS. 14 and 15, since there is no tube structure, there are a spherical shape and a piping type, but they are expressed as tanks.
Moreover, although there are four types of control valves, they are expressed as control valves when not designated and expressed.

(FIG. 1) is a system diagram of the fire extinguishing apparatus of the present invention. 3 shown in (FIG. 1) is a water meter of each house branched from the water pipe. Normally, tap water from 3 passes through 31 and is supplied to 4 through control valve 2 in a state where stagnant water does not occur while passing through 7 to 8 and stirring in 8. Details of 8 are shown in FIG.
In the cross-sectional view of 8, there are 19 inside 17 and the tap water from 7 is stored. The state in which the tap water is filled and the 19 sticks to the inner wall of the 17 by the pressure is normal, and the 19 is held at the withstand pressure of 17 and becomes equivalent withstand pressure. The flow of the tap water inside 19 is provided in the middle part 22, the amount corresponding to the water pressure difference flows to 20, rotates while stirring inside 19, returns to 18, merges with the tap water passing through 22, and flows in the direction of 2. This flow is generated by the hydraulic resistance by 22.
The fire extinguishing operation will be described for 46 building A in FIG. 1 is arranged in 46 indoor ceilings, and the pipes are connected to 2 through 29 and 10. Reference numeral 12 denotes a replenishing device that feeds a small amount of compressed air or inert gas and copes with a small amount of piping leakage. Compressed air or an inert gas is held at a constant pressure inside 29, and the same pressure is applied to 32, and the backflow is closed by 10 to perform a sensing operation. A pressure fluctuation is released in which the pressure is released by the opening operation of 1, and 2 and 5 are controlled through 32 by a pressure drop in the pipe. Reference numeral 2 denotes a control valve that is activated by a change in the sensed pressure and operates to switch tap water from the indoor water supply side to the sprinkler side. Reference numeral 5 denotes a valve for controlling the activation of the gas cylinder by fluctuation of the sensed pressure.
Normally, the sensing pressure is 10 and closed. A pipe connected from 10 to 2 is connected to 11 via 2 and is held in a constant unpressurized state by a small amount of vacuum by 11. This eliminates the backflow to tap water at the time of water leakage due to the failure of 2 and detects water leakage. Details of 2 are shown in FIG. In the

operation

5, 9 is filled with an inert gas, an inert liquefied gas, or compressed air, and the amount of gas that maintains the pressure required to discharge the water storage amount 8 is measured in advance. When the pressure is reduced to 32, it is opened, and from 44 (internal structure figure 4) 17 and 19, a gas or compressed air of an inert gas or an inert liquefied gas is released and a constant pressure is applied to 19 If the tap water pressure drops or the absolute amount of water is insufficient, the amount of water stored can be assisted.
In addition, the initial fire extinguishing can be performed with the amount of water stored in 19 even when the water is shut off. At this time, it is closed at 7 so that no reverse flow occurs due to the pressure difference of tap water. Adjustment of the gas pressure discharged from 9 is shown in FIG. 9 will be described assuming a liquefied carbon dioxide gas among the types of inert gas. When liquefied carbon dioxide is filled and 5 is opened, if the liquid is sent directly to 8, pressure control may become difficult. The constant pressure is adjusted by arranging 13 and 14 (pressure reducing devices).
13 is a capillary tube that is air-cooled or water-cooled and has the ability to reduce the pressure of liquid vaporization and gas cylinder discharge, and is characterized by a two-stage pressure reduction that prevents freezing and stabilizes the pressure. Further, even when 9 is filled with gaseous nitrogen, if only 14 is used, the temperature may be lowered due to the decompression operation and malfunction may occur. However, 13 is provided on the primary side of 14 to collect heat by the decompression operation. Thus, the gas temperature is prevented from lowering and 14 is stabilized. No. 13 can perform vaporization heat collection and pressure reduction at the same time, and is easy to downsize. (Constant pressure is the pressure required for fire extinguishing operation and the pressure calculated for pipe loss calculation) (Capillary tube is a decompression tube using a thin tube, water-cooled and air-cooled, and used in refrigeration cycles. (The pressure does not become constant because the pressure is not constant depending on the amount of heat.) (The pressure reducing valve has a constant pressure set by the pressure regulating valve.)
19 will be described in FIG. 19 compresses tap water from the outside with a constant pressure of gas, but when the amount of inflow water from 31 becomes insufficient, 19 becomes a shape that squeezes out the stored water, and finally shrinks to wrap around 18 The tap water is supplied through 22 though the flow of 20 is blocked.
Reference numeral 2 denotes a four-way valve (shown in FIG. 9) in which two axes move in conjunction with each other, and is a schematic diagram showing the operation. Normally, tap water enters from 8 to 37, passes through 28 and is supplied from 38 to 4. At this time, the insides of the pipes 10 to 39 and 35 are evacuated through 27 through 40 to 11, and are kept at a constant non-pressure. In this state, when water is mixed into the pipes 10 to 11 and the inside 35, the water is discharged by 11 and dried by a non-pressure state, and is kept dry with time. At the time of fire extinguishing, the shafts 28 and 27 are connected and rotated 90 degrees, and tap water is passed from 37 to 28 through 35 to 27 through 39. At this time, 40 and 38 are closed. The feature of the biaxial four-way valve is that no residual water remains in the valve body by the combination of the L-shaped port and the T-shaped port. Further, the valve drive system includes spring force, pneumatic pressure, non-pressure, water pressure, oil pressure, electric type, and gravity type. (Startup consists of pressure fluctuations due to the opening of 1. However, for example, there are a method of compressing the spring force and fixing it with a lock pin, catching the pressure fluctuation with a diaphragm and releasing the lock pin, and a direct drive method)
The operations 47 and 48 in FIG. 1 will be described. 47 and 48 are the same structure and share 8 by connecting with 29 of 46. First, if one of the doors becomes a fire and 1 becomes an opening operation, 2 of each door is switched to the sprinkler side, and water supply from each meter starts at the same time. As a result, even if a single meter is small, the amount of water and the water pressure increase, making it easy to secure the amount of water necessary for fire extinguishing. The amount of water stored in 8 can be reduced by the amount that can be used for initial fire extinguishing.
Normally, the sensing pressure is held from 1 to 29, 32, and 10, and the pressure is held from 11 to 11 through 10 and 2. Tap water is supplied to 3 through 3 and 7 and 2. At the time of fire extinguishing due to the occurrence of a fire, first, 1 is opened, 2 is activated by depressurization of 29 and 32, switching to the sprinkler side, and tap water is discharged from 1 opened through 29 and 29. For example, if water is passed to 29 due to a test or failure, drainage treatment will be performed from 15 to recover, but the remaining water in the pipes 10 to 2 will be drained and dried so that no residual water remains due to 11 and maintains no pressure To do. Even if the tap water leaks into the pipe 10 to 2 due to the failure of No. 2, it is prevented from flowing back due to the pressure difference due to non-pressure, and drains and becomes dry.
Moreover, the valve of (FIG. 11) is a biaxial four-way valve, but according to the structure of the structure which combined two three-way valves (refer patent document 4), as shown in (FIG. 11), residual water accumulates in 35 parts, It is necessary to drain by providing a valve in the middle. In addition, when two three-way valves are arranged, separate control is required.
If water supply from a plurality of water meters is connected and simultaneous water supply is possible, 9, 5, 44, 8, and 6 can be omitted, and fire extinguishing operation can be performed with only the amount of tap water. For example, if the water meter is not from the water main, but a high-rise apartment building with a water tank and an emergency power generation facility, it will function even if the lifeline is shut off.
The difference from existing equipment is that the fire pump is omitted and the water supply pump is also used, and the equipment is simplified. Also, in areas where there is little water outage or water reduction, even buildings where water meters are drawn from the water mains will function and will be advantageous in price diversity.

(FIG. 2) is a system diagram of the fire extinguishing apparatus of the present invention. 3 shown in the figure is a water meter of each house branched from the water pipe. Normally, tap water from 3 passes through 31, passes from 7 to 8, and is supplied to the faucet 4 through the control valve 2 in a state where stagnant water does not occur while stirring in 8. (Details of 8 are shown in FIG. 4).
Description of the sectional view of FIG. 8 is omitted since it is described in (Example 1).
The fire extinguishing operation will be described for 46 building A in FIG. 1 is arranged on 46 indoor ceilings, and the pipe is connected to the control valve 50 through 29. Reference numeral 11 denotes a vacuum apparatus that evacuates a minute amount and copes with a minute amount of pipe leakage. 50 is changed and the inside of 29 is kept dry and kept constant. Similarly, no pressure is applied to 32 connected to 29, and it is a dry type non-pressure pipe that detects pressure fluctuations in which no pressure is released to the atmosphere by the opening operation of 1. ing.
Details of 50 are shown in FIG. In the

operation

5, 9 is filled with an inert gas, an inert liquefied gas, or compressed air, and the amount of gas that maintains the pressure necessary for discharging the water storage amount 8 is measured in advance, and the pressure fluctuation of 32 It becomes an open state at 44, and the pressure of tap water decreases or the absolute water amount is insufficient by releasing a vaporized gas or compressed air of inert gas or inert liquefied gas between 44 and 17 and 19 and applying a constant pressure to 19 If you do, you can assist depending on the amount of water stored. In addition, the initial fire extinguishing can be performed with the amount of water stored in 19 even when the water is shut off. At this time, it is closed at 7 so that no reverse flow occurs due to the pressure difference of tap water.
The adjustment of the gas released from 9 has been described in (Example 1) and will be omitted.
In FIG. 4, the description of 19 is omitted since it is described in (Example 1).
(FIG. 10) is a four-way valve in which two axes move in conjunction with each other, and is a schematic diagram showing the operation. Normally, tap water enters from 8 to 37, passes through 28 and is supplied from 38 to 4. At this time, the pipes 1 to 29, 39, and 35 are evacuated through 27 through 40 to 11, and are kept at a constant non-pressure. In this state, when water is mixed in the pipes 1 to 29, 50, and 11 and inside 35, the water is discharged by 11 and is dried by a non-pressure state, and is kept dry over time. At the time of fire extinguishing, the shafts 28 and 27 are connected and rotated 90 °, and tap water is fed from 37 to 28 through 10 and 35 to 27 and 39. At this time, 40 and 38 are closed. Although 10 is provided in the middle part of 35, it is added for the pressure test of the sprinkler pipe, but it is not necessary to add it as a thing unnecessary for a series of operations. The feature of the biaxial four-way valve is that no residual water remains in the valve body by the combination of the L-shaped port and the T-shaped port.
Further, the valve drive system includes spring force, pneumatic pressure, non-pressure, water pressure, oil pressure, electric type, and gravity type. (Startup consists of pressure fluctuations due to the opening of 1. However, for example, there are a method of compressing the spring force and fixing it with a lock pin, catching the pressure fluctuation with a diaphragm and releasing the lock pin, and a direct drive method)
The operations 47 and 48 in FIG. 2 will be described. 47 and 48 are one house of the same structure and share 8 by connecting with 29 of 46.
First, when one of the doors becomes a fire and 1 becomes an opening operation, 2 of each door is switched to the sprinkler side, and water feeding starts from each meter at the same time. Thereby, even if one meter is small, the amount of water and the water pressure increase so that it becomes easy to secure the amount of water necessary for fire extinguishing, and the amount of water stored in 8 can be reduced. First, in the normal state, from 1 to 29, 32, 10, and 52 sprinkler ports, the sensing dry type non-pressure is held by 46-11. Tap water is supplied to 3 through 3 and 7 and 52. When fire extinguishes, 1 first opens, 1 and 29 and 32 sensed pressures are released to the atmosphere, 52 starts and switches to the sprinkler port side, and tap water is released from 1 through 29 and opened through 29 The For example, if water is passed to 29 due to testing or failure, drainage treatment will be performed from 15 and recovery will be made, but the remaining water in the pipes 29 to 10, 52 will be drained and dried by 46-11 so that no residual water will remain. Holds no pressure. Even if tap water leaks into the pipes 10 to 52 due to the failure of 52, it is prevented from flowing back due to the pressure difference due to the non-pressure holding, and it becomes a dry state by draining and drying.
52 is shown in FIG. This is a control valve (three-way valve) that operates in a non-pressure open atmosphere to the control valve described in (JP-A-2004-97503) of the present invention.
Since the connection of water supply from a plurality of water meters is described in (Example 1), it is omitted.

(FIG. 3) is a system diagram of the fire extinguishing apparatus of the present invention. In FIG. 3, common operations are omitted except for differences from FIG. 1.
The difference from FIG. 1 is that eleven pressureless devices are omitted, and the pipes 10 to 2 are normally opened to the atmosphere by 33 drain pipes. The 40 vacuum pump port (drainage port) in FIG. 9 is connected to 33 and is open to the atmosphere. Therefore, the remaining water is drained naturally. In addition, although the compressed compressed air or inert gas is maintained at 29, leakage due to the failure of 10 is also discharged, so that the mixture into the tap water can be prevented. During fire extinguishing, 40 and 38 are closed, and the drainage of tap water is closed. In the case of (Fig. 1), the leakage of 10 and 2 can be detected by the function of holding the pressure of the non-pressure device, so that the leak detection can be detected. Although it is difficult to detect leaks, the structure is simplified.
Since the connection of water supply from a plurality of water meters is described in (Example 1), it is omitted.

(FIG. 4) is a spherical water tank of the present invention. (Claim 1) (FIG. 4) is a cross-sectional view, with 19 inside 17 and the tap water from 31 is stored in 19. When the tap water is filled, 19 sticks to the inner wall of 17 by the pressure, and 19 is held at the pressure resistance of 17 and has the same pressure resistance. Reference numeral 6 denotes a safety valve for allowable pressure resistance with pressurized gas.
The flow of the tap water in 19 flows from 31 to 18 and 22 provided in the middle portion, the amount corresponding to the difference in water pressure flows to 20, returns to 18 while stirring the interior of 19 and merges with the tap water passing through 22 in the direction of 2 Flowing. This flow is generated by the hydraulic resistance by 22. 22 may be a valve that expands the flow path if the hydraulic resistance increases. Descriptions of 5, 9, 13, and 14 are omitted since they are described in (Example 1). (22 is a valve that expands the flow path if the orifice or hydraulic resistance increases)
The tap water in 19 has a structure in which new water is always stored. By providing 15 and 16, it can be separated from each pipe and can be used for drinking water in an emergency. In addition, since it can be moved, it can be used as stored drinking water in the event of a disaster. It is also possible to take tap water from the lower piping flange.

(FIG. 5) is a spherical water tank of the present invention. (FIG. 5) is a cross-sectional view, with 19 inside 17 and the tap water from 31 is stored in 17. The tap water is full, and the pressure 19 contracts in a state of sticking to the inner wall of 17.
18 is provided with a number of holes for agitation, and the flow of tap water in 17 flows from 31 to 18 and is provided in the middle part 22 so that the water pressure difference equivalent to 20 flows back to 18 while agitating the inside of 17. It merges with tap water passing through 22 and flows in the direction of 2 control valves. This flow is generated by the hydraulic resistance by 22. The difference from FIG. 4 is that gas pressure is applied from the outside of the 19 pressurizing tube, while FIG. 5 pressurizes tap water by applying gas pressure inside 19. At this time, the 19 pressure tube swells from the upper part due to buoyancy, and finally, there is no water storage inside 17. 19 sticks to 18 and 17, and the tap water from 31 passes through 22. 22 may be a valve that expands the flow path if the hydraulic resistance increases.

(FIG. 6) is a pipe-type water storage tank of the present invention. (FIG. 6) is a cross-sectional view, and there are 19 inside 21, and tap water from 31 is stored in 19. When the tap water is filled, 19 sticks to the inner wall of 21 by the pressure, and 19 is held by the withstand pressure of 21 and becomes an equivalent withstand pressure.
19 has a forward path and a return path, and 22 is provided in the vicinity of the 31 connection port. The flow of tap water inside 19 flows from 31 to 19 and then returns to the return path at the end of 19. As a result, there is no stagnant water and water supply is provided. 22 may be a valve that expands the flow path if the forward hydraulic resistance increases.
During fire extinguishing, pressurized gas is supplied from the end of 21 and 19 is pressurized and contracted to feed water. At this time, the reciprocating path in 19 is crushed and water cannot be passed through, but 22 has a structure in which the pressure difference causes the bypass circuit to work, and tap water and water storage water are supplied to 2 in proportion to the pressure difference. At this time (FIG. 6), the attachment position of 22 is arranged in the immediate vicinity of the water supply inlet inside the partition wall in 21, but a bypass pipe may be attached outside the partition wall and 22 may be arranged in the middle part of the pipe. Is possible. The piping structure shown in FIG. 6 can be applied at the installation location and facilitates internal inspection. Moreover, there exists an advantage which can accommodate a control apparatus in piping inside like (FIG. 15).

(FIG. 7) is a pipe-type water storage tank of the present invention. (FIG. 7) is a plan view in which 17 in FIG. 4 is replaced with 21 piping types, and the operation is the same as in (Example 4), and is therefore omitted. The advantage of the piping type is that the installation location can be applied and the internal inspection is easy. Moreover, there exists an advantage which can accommodate a control apparatus in piping inside like (FIG. 15).

(FIG. 8) is a pipe-type water storage tank of the present invention. (FIG. 8) is a sectional view, in which 17 spherical tanks in (FIG. 5) are replaced with 21 piping types, and the operation is the same as in (Example 5), and will be omitted. The advantage of the piping type is that the installation location can be applied and the internal inspection is easy. Moreover, the point which can accommodate a control apparatus inside piping like (FIG. 15) is an advantage.

(FIG. 12) is a one-shaft one-port six-way valve which is a control valve of the present invention. (FIG. 12) is a cross-sectional view, and normal-time tap water is passed from 37 to 38. At this time, 26 is shielded by 36. Even if residual water is generated in the sprinkler piping at the time of inspection or the like, it is drained from 39 to 40 or evacuated so that it does not enter tap water. Further, even if 36 leaks due to a failure, it is a double shield structure that drains from 49.
At the time of fire extinguishing, 26 rotates and tap water is passed from 37 to 39, and 38, 40 and 49 are closed by 26 and 36. Thereafter, when 26 is restored to the normal position, the remaining water in the 26 valve body is drained from 49. 49 has two mouths, but even one mouth can function. In the case of a uniaxial one-port five-way valve, it is necessary to drain by gravity. This one-shaft one-port six-way valve can be replaced with 2 or 50. Further, the valve drive system includes spring force, pneumatic pressure, non-pressure, water pressure, oil pressure, electric type, and gravity type. (Startup consists of pressure fluctuations due to the opening of 1. However, for example, there are a method of compressing the spring force and fixing it with a lock pin, catching the pressure fluctuation with a diaphragm and releasing the lock pin, and a direct drive method)

(FIG. 13) is a slide rotation shaft five-way valve which is a control valve of the present invention. (FIG. 13) is a cross-sectional view and a vertical cross-sectional view of the control valve, and is normally expressed as (0 degree). 41 and 51 are provided in 26 valve bodies, and tap water is passed from 37 to 38. At this time, 51 is closed at 25, 49 is closed at 26, and 39 is evacuated or drained from 40.
When draining, it is described as (90 degrees). 26 (90 degrees) rotates and slides sideways, 41 moves sideways. At this time, if there is residual water in the sprinkler pipe, it is drained from 39 to 51, 41, 49. In addition, residual water in the valve body is also drained. At this time, 37, 38, and 40 are closed by 26.
When the fire is extinguished, it is described as (180 degrees). 26 moves sideways with rotation (180 degrees). Tap water is passed from 37 to 39, 38, 40, and 49 are closed by 26, and 51 is closed by 25. After that, when returning to the normal position, stop at the position of (90 degrees), drain the remaining water, drain the water in the valve body, and then recover to (0 degree). Therefore, even if residual water is present in a part of the sprinkler pipe, it is dried over time by evacuation. This slide rotation shaft five-way valve can be replaced with 2 or 50. Further, the valve drive system includes spring force, pneumatic pressure, non-pressure, water pressure, oil pressure, electric type, and gravity type. (Startup consists of pressure fluctuations due to the opening of 1. However, for example, there are a method of compressing the spring force and fixing it with a lock pin, catching the pressure fluctuation with a diaphragm and releasing the lock pin, and a direct drive method)

(FIG. 14) is a system diagram of the fire extinguishing apparatus of the present invention. (FIG. 14) is a sectional view and is characterized by having a water discharge space in a spherical fire extinguishing liquid water tank (tank). The tap water is supplied indoors from 31 through 3, 23, 2 or 50. 12, 32, 5, 2, or 50, branch from 50 and 32, pass through 10, 29 to 55, and hold pressure with compressed air or inert gas. In 42, tap water or fire extinguishing liquid is stored up to the water discharge space line, and this water level is controlled by a sensor. Pressurized gas piping is installed from 5 to 13, 14, and 44, and the protruding port is provided in the upper part of the water discharge space, but no pressure is applied. 6 is a safety valve. From 42 to 45, 54 the vent pipe is open to the atmosphere. 42 to 24 are piped to 55 and connected to 29. At this time, 42 tap water or fire extinguishing liquid is flowing in 24. A pipe is connected to the upper part of the water discharge space of 42 through 53, 7, 23 from the sprinkler pipe port of 2 or 50.
Reference numeral 12 denotes a compressor or an inert gas device that feeds a small amount of compressed air, and is a device that compensates for a decrease in the sensed pressure due to pipe leakage and has a built-in check.
Explanation of operation during fire extinguishing, 1 is opened by fire detection, and the sensing air or sensing inert gas inside 29, 32 is released from 1, and the pressure fluctuates. 5, 45, 2 or 50 operates by this pressure fluctuation (pressure drop). 45 closes and 2 or 50 supplies tap water to the sprinkler side. Tap water is supplied to 42 through 53, 7 and 23 and the inside of 42 is gradually compressed, and tap water or fire extinguishing liquid is discharged from 1 through 24 to 55 and 29. At the same time, 9 is opened by 5 and the inert gas or liquid inert gas is reduced in pressure, vaporized and collected through 13 and the pressure is adjusted at 14 and discharged through 44 to the water discharge space to pressurize the fire extinguishing liquid or tap water. 6 is branched from 44. The pressure of tap water and the pressure of pressurized gas are applied to 42 at the same time, but are supplied at a ratio based on the pressure balance.
As a result, the amount of stored water is radiated from the sprinkler head while tap water is being supplied, and the amount of stored water in 42 can be set as small as the amount of supplied tap water. In addition, fire extinguishing liquid can be installed in the water storage, not limited to tap water. This is to prevent the fire extinguishing liquid from flowing back into the tap water because there is a water discharge space, and 7 is provided as a mechanism for preventing the pressurized gas from being mixed into the tap water. At this time, when the pressurized gas flows backward due to the failure of 7, the gas is released by the float mechanism 53. 53 may be eliminated in terms of operation, but is provided for safety.
Also, if 50 is used for the control valve, a check valve is mounted inside, so that double check is used and safety is increased. 45 is a shut-off valve that is activated when 1 is opened. (Pressure balance is determined by the area or building floor of tap water. The pressure of compressed air or inert gas from 14 is set by the sum of the pressure required for the fire extinguishing operation and the calculated value of pipe loss. Balance state In this case, the gas pressure is constant, but the tap water means that it changes due to regional pressure reduction or water breakage, which is the same as the case of simultaneous pressurization in each example)

(FIG. 15) is a system diagram of the fire extinguishing apparatus of the present invention. (FIG. 15) is a cross-sectional view, characterized by having a water discharge space in a pipe-type fire extinguishing liquid water tank (tank). The operation is the same as in Example 11, and the description is omitted because 42 is replaced with 56. The advantage of the piping type is that the installation location can be applied and the internal inspection is easy. Moreover, there exists an advantage which can accommodate a control apparatus in piping inside.

(FIG. 16) is a system diagram of the fire extinguishing apparatus of the present invention. (FIG. 16) is a drawing showing an implementation method when the system of (Examples 1, 2, 3, 11, 12) is connected to the end of an indoor water pipe. The system (Examples 1, 2, 3, 11, 12) uses the supply of tap water to the maximum extent by connecting the system directly under the water meter, and the indoor water supply branched in the middle of the piping connecting 3 and the system If there is a fire extinguishing operation, for example, when bath water is supplied, the supply capacity of tap water is reduced and the amount of water is reduced. (FIG. 16) is characterized in that a mechanism for preventing a reduction in water supply capacity is added by providing a shut-off valve 45 that operates by sensing pressure control by opening 1 in a pipe portion branched from 31 connecting system 3 and system. In addition, this system can be installed in a separate building such as a warehouse away from the system, and can prevent a drop in the water pressure of indoor water supply.

FIG. 18 is a system diagram of the fire extinguishing apparatus of the present invention. 3 shown in the figure is a water meter arranged at 31 of each door branched from the water pipe.
Normally, tap water from 3 is passed through 3 to 63, 7, and 64, branching from the middle of 71, and supplied to indoor water supply through 66, 70, and 72. This indoor water supply pipe can be branched from 71 places and can correspond to the shape of the building. The water supply by this branch pipe is also effective in preventing the pressure loss of the pipe resistance. Further, this branch pipe need not be provided. The tap water passes through 71 and connects from 65 to 18 in the water tank, and always stores new tap water. 70 is arranged in the middle of 73 via the water storage tank and water is passed to 4. 1 is arranged in 71 places.
In the description of the water storage tank, 19 is provided in 17, and tap water from 71 is stored in 19 by 18. When the tap water is filled, 19 sticks to the inner wall of 17 by the pressure, and 19 is held at the pressure resistance of 17 and has the same pressure resistance. Reference numeral 6 denotes a safety valve for allowable pressure resistance with pressurized gas. The flow of tap water in 19 flows from 71 to 18 and 22 provided in the middle portion, the equivalent of the water pressure flows to 20, returns to 18 while stirring the tap water in 19, and merges with the tap water passing through 22. It flows in the direction of the shut-off valve 70. This flow is generated by the hydraulic resistance by 22. 22 may be a valve that expands the flow path if the hydraulic resistance increases. 44 is connected to 17 and 44 is branched and connected to 68 and 69. Further, 44 is connected to 14 and 13 and connected to 67.
The control method is controlled by electricity and communication. Electric power is supplied from a building power source to 61 and electricity is stored at 61 and supplied to 62 by 74 and controlled. 62 to 60 are connected to 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 69, 70 of each device. 61 is an uninterruptible power supply and has a capacity capable of supplying electricity necessary for a fire extinguishing operation in the event of a power failure.
The normal explanation is given. The tap water passes through each device and is supplied to the four faucets when the shut-off valve 70 is opened. However, the pressure sensor 63 generates a pressure reduction signal and the control control device 69 has a structure corresponding to temporary pressure reduction or water cutoff of the water supply. , And a means for supplying compressed air through 68 and supplying the tube 19 to each 4 according to the amount of water stored by pressurizing the tube 19 at a constant pressure. (Constant pressure is the minimum pressure at which tap water can be supplied. The minimum pressure can be determined by the local water supply law.) This device prevents temporary water outages and secures drinking water in the event of an emergency disaster (except during a fire). Yes. (The difference between FIG. 18 and FIG. 19 will be described. FIG. 19 is a diagram in which two separate water tanks are provided in series. In the event of a fire and drinking water can be secured simultaneously, water tanks are provided in parallel. In this case, it is necessary to consider the balance of the circulating water volume of the two water storage tanks, and in the case of series connection, it is necessary to consider the pressure loss of tap water. Connected to the added water tank from the omitted 69.) The pressure sensor 63 plays a role of starting 69, reducing water, and outputting a water cutoff signal. (The tube 19 is made of material that does not enter tap water, and is subject to the provisions of the Water Supply Act. There are stretched or sheet-like materials such as Teflon, silicone, and vinyl chloride that are pasted or coated on the surface of other materials. Yes, there are materials containing Teflon, silicone, and vinyl chloride)
Explain at fire extinguishing.

Reference numerals

64, 65, and 66 denote flow sensors (flow meters) (65 is a forward / reverse bidirectional measurement type). The control control device compares the sum of the values of 65 and 66 from the flow rate value of 64, and detects the opening operation of 1 by the difference. Since the amount of water due to the opening of 1 is 15 l / min or more, some piping leaks and errors in the flow rate sensor are not comparable, so control control can be afforded to prevent malfunction.
Even when 72 branches from 71 are provided at a plurality of places, if one of 66 and 70 is arranged, it is possible to detect one opening by calculation of control control. Further, even when no branch is provided, the comparison of 64 and 65 can be performed to detect the opening of 1.
The sprinkler device of the existing equipment uses an alarm valve to detect the opening of 1 (ON, OFF), but it cannot be replaced with the flow sensor of this system corresponding to various water volumes.
When the control control device detects the opening of 1, the power is transmitted to 70 arranged at 72 and 73 at 60 and shut off, and the electromagnetic lock is also released and 9 inert gas or compressed air is released to release 13, 14, 44. Compresses 17 to 19 with a predetermined pressure via. At this time, if the pressure at 44 is higher than the pressure from 69, the back flow is blocked by 68. The tap water in 19 is fed from 18 to 71, and if water is not cut off, the water supply from 31 is also discharged from 1 by the amount of water due to the pressure balance with the water feed from 71. (Predetermined pressure is a pressure that is equal to or greater than the flow rate and pressure required for fire extinguishing)
Although not shown in the figure, valves, flanges, and flexible joints are provided for electrical insulation, earthquake resistance, and water tank installation / removal.
As described above, the water storage tank in each embodiment can be added after the construction. In this way, the building can be expanded and renewed in the future, and if the amount of stored water is increased, it is possible to cope with small children's facilities (schools, etc.) in the event of a water outage or in the event of a disaster. This is because existing sprinkler equipment has a water tank, but is not sealed circulating water, so it cannot handle drinking water in a sanitary manner. In addition, the water supply pressure of the present invention allows water in the water tank to be supplied at a constant pressure to the end, preventing malfunctions of equipment connected to the water supply, and a backup function that does not inconvenience the user if water is shut off or decompressed for a short time. It is. (The compressor for storing water pressure can also be supplied by a manual air pump and can respond to replenishment of drinking water when water is shut down.) (Malfunction device, instantaneous water heater, etc.)

In Japan, the penetration rate of water supply facilities is high. Many fires are concentrated in houses and occupying buildings, and many victims are elderly and vulnerable. Large facilities have fire extinguishing equipment but small buildings do not. In fact, fire extinguishing equipment has begun to be installed in small facilities such as nursing homes and day service homes. If widespread use at low cost, fire accidents will be reduced, and social needs will increase as more equipment forms are marketed. In the event of a disaster, especially in the case of an earthquake disaster, the number of fires is greatly related to human life, and since it can be installed as a simple facility in factories as well as houses and occupying buildings, the industrial utility value is great. In addition, since the water storage structure is compatible with drinking water, the meaning is significant from the viewpoint of disaster prevention.
