FIG. 13 is a diagram schematically showing the configuration of a conventional smoke detection device 9 of a type connected to an intake pipe and an exhaust pipe. 13(A) shows the appearance of the smoke detection device 9, and FIG. 13(B) shows the state where the lid 911 forming the front portion of the housing 91 of the smoke detection device 9 is removed. 13(C) is a top view of the smoke detection device 9, and FIG. 13(D) is a bottom view of the smoke detection device 9. As shown in FIG.

The smoke detection device 9 includes a housing 91 and a display unit 92 as components visible from the outside. The display unit 92 has a touch screen, for example, and serves as a user interface that displays various types of information to the user and receives touch operations from the user. The lid 911 is provided with an opening (window) corresponding to the position of the display unit 92. Even with the lid 911 attached, the display unit 92 can be visually recognized from the outside of the housing 91, and the display unit 92 can be touched. Manipulation is also possible.

The smoke detection device 9 includes an intake pipe 7, which is a pipe that guides air from the space S1 to be monitored to the smoke detection device 9, and an exhaust pipe, which is a pipe that guides air from the smoke detection device 9 to the space S2 of the exhaust destination. 8 is connected.

A housing 91 accommodates a smoke detection unit 93 , a power supply unit 94 and a data processing unit 95 in addition to the display unit 92 . The display unit 92 , the smoke detection unit 93 , the power supply unit 94 and the data processing unit 95 are each held at predetermined positions by the housing 91 . As a method for holding these components by the housing 91, any method such as screwing, fitting, hooking with hooks, connection with hook-and-loop fasteners, and adhesion with double-sided tape or the like may be adopted.

The smoke detection unit 93 has a sensor 931 , an intake section 932 and an exhaust section 933 . Sensor 931 detects smoke in the air. The sensor 931 includes, for example, a light-emitting portion, a light-receiving portion, and a determination portion. Light emitted from the light-emitting portion and reflected by particles in the air is received by the light-receiving portion. This is a photoelectric smoke sensor that determines the presence or absence of smoke. However, the method by which the sensor 931 detects smoke is not limited to this. The sensor 931 is arranged within a housing space formed within the housing of the smoke detection unit 93 .

The intake part 932 is a member that is connected to the intake pipe 7 and forms an air flow path from the smoke monitoring target space S1 toward the housing space of the sensor 931 . The exhaust part 933 is a member that is connected to the exhaust pipe 8 and forms an air flow path from the accommodation space of the sensor 931 to the exhaust destination space S2.

The power supply unit 94 supplies power to components of the smoke detection device 9 that require power, including the smoke detection unit 93 .

The data processing unit 95 performs processing using the data generated by the smoke detection unit 93. The processing performed by the data processing unit 95 includes, for example, data storage, data transmission to an external device, determination of the presence or absence of smoke based on the data, and notification of a warning or the like according to the determination result of the presence or absence of smoke. Although control of the display unit 92 and the like can be mentioned, it is not limited to these.

In addition to the display unit 92, the smoke detection unit 93, the power supply unit 94, and the data processing unit 95, the housing 91 includes, for example, a power transmission cable for supplying power from the power supply unit 94 to the smoke detection unit 93 and the like, and a data processing unit. A communication cable or the like for data communication between the unit 95 and the smoke detection unit 93 or the like is accommodated, but these components are omitted in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 13(B), the housing 91 has a piping hole H1 that allows the intake pipe 7 to pass therethrough while the smoke detection unit 93 is held at a predetermined position of the housing 91. , and a piping hole H2 which is a hole through which the exhaust pipe 8 can pass.

When smoke occurs in the space S1 to be monitored, the smoke detection device 9 having the above configuration detects particles of smoke in the air that are guided by the intake pipe 7 and arrive at the smoke detection device 9. For example, the display unit 92 issues a warning of smoke generation, or transmits a warning message to a terminal device or the like used by the administrator. Note that the method by which the smoke detection device 9 issues a warning or the like is not limited to these methods. may be provided with a warning light, and the warning may be issued by lighting the warning light or the like.

As shown in FIG. 13, the smoke detection device 9 configured as described above has the intake pipe 7 located above the smoke detection device 9 and the exhaust pipe 8 located below the smoke detection device 9. However, if the positions of the intake pipe 7 and the exhaust pipe 8 are reversed, they cannot be used as they are. FIG. 14 shows the state where the intake pipe 7 is located below the installation position of the smoke detection device 9 and the exhaust pipe 8 is located above the installation position of the smoke detection device 9. is installed in an arrangement direction that is upside down from the arrangement direction shown in FIG.

In this case, as shown in FIGS. 14A and 14B, the information displayed on the display unit 92 is upside down. Further, for example, by providing the display unit 92 with a function of displaying information rotated 180 degrees, the information displayed on the display unit 92 can be prevented from being upside down as shown in FIG. 14(C). Even so, the position of the user interface is located below the smoke detection device 9, which may reduce the operability. Further, when the manufacturer's name (for example, "XYZ" shown in FIG. 14) is printed on the lid 911 of the housing 91, the information formed on the lid 911 may be upside down. is inevitable.

In order to solve the above problem, for example, as shown in FIG. 15, it is possible to manufacture a smoke detection unit 93 in which the positions of an intake portion 932 and an exhaust portion 933 are opposite to those of the smoke detection unit 93 shown in FIG. Conceivable. In this case, it is necessary to separately prepare two types of smoke detection units 93 having different configurations.

Further, for example, as shown in FIG. 16, a smoke detection unit 93 having the same configuration as the smoke detection unit 93 shown in FIG. 13 can be attached to the housing 91 in the arrangement direction shown in FIG. It is conceivable that In this case, it is necessary to separately prepare a housing 91 in which the positions of the piping hole H1 and the piping hole H2 are different from those of the housing 91 shown in FIG.

In view of the above circumstances, the present invention provides a smoke detection device that can be used without major parts replacement even if the positional relationship between the connected intake pipe and exhaust pipe is different.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a sensor for detecting smoke in the air, and an intake section connected to an intake pipe forming an air flow path from a space to be monitored to a space containing the sensor. , a smoke detection unit having an exhaust part connected to an exhaust pipe forming an air flow path from the accommodation space of the sensor to a space of an exhaust destination; a housing that can be selectively held and accommodated in one of the arrangement directions, the housing passing through the intake part or the intake pipe while holding the smoke detection unit in the first arrangement direction. a second piping hole that allows the exhaust section or the exhaust pipe to pass through while the smoke detection unit is held in the first arrangement direction; and the smoke detection. a third piping hole through which the intake portion or the intake pipe can pass while the unit is held in the second arrangement direction; and the smoke detection unit while the smoke detection unit is held in the second arrangement direction. A smoke detection device is proposed which has an exhaust portion or a fourth pipe hole through which the exhaust pipe can pass.
