Description

What are fire blankets? These are fire-resistant sheets of material that you can use to cover a fire to cut its supply of oxygen or wrap around a person whose clothes are on fire. They are quick to use, easy to maintain and cheaper than fire extinguishers. Fire blankets work by cutting out oxygen so the fabric’s flexibility, thermal coefficient, electrical conductivity and vapour barrier are all taken into consideration. My idea is to place the fire blanket on the ceiling. Material Required 1- Fire Blanket 2- Pole 3- Smoke detector 4- Detachable Alarm system with hook. Application Spread the fire blanket wide on the ceiling to be held by a pole positioned at the length and breath of the room. A detachable alarm system with hook will also be holding the blanket from behind at the middle of the blanket to prevent sliding down. A smoke detector to detect smoke will be attach behind the blanket. Once the smoke detector detects fire through its infrared light flow, it will trigger an alarm and the continuous alarming will cause a detach of the hook to enable the sliding down of the blanket through the pole to cover items on the ground.
