FIREFIGHTING TRANSPORT TROLLEY

Mobile Firefighting Device with whole Equipment mounted onto a Trolley

Description

Starting point: A permanently installed firefighting system has the disadvantage that it is not mobile when needed. So I suggest a Mobile Firefighting Device with whole Equipment mounted onto a Trolley, which can be placed at machines, storage rooms and so on, with high potential fire risk. Hence it is available where it is really needed. Often it is necessary in the factories to move machines to other places or new built working halls. The Firefighting Transport Trolley follows where ever needed. Design of FIREFIGHTING TRANSPORT TROLLEY: Idea is to use the design similar to an industrial vacuum cleaner. They have a platform with three or four wheels with mounted dust collector bin. Suction hose is extractable and rollable by a spring mechanism. At the end of hose there is a suction nozzle added. So let us interchange * dust collector bin with an extinguishing agent tank * suction hose with spray hose * suction nozzle with end pipe with a spray nozzle Additional features * extractable rod with extension arm mounted to trolley * click mechanism at the end of extension arm to fix spray nozzle, or several nozzles, above machines Detection_Activation: Manually by human * Activation of whole system by toggleswitch at firefighting transport trolley * Activation spraying by pressure switch at end pipe with spray nozzle Automatically * known smoke-, fire detector gives alarm and starts.... * ....electric activation and release of spray system without influence of worker * therefore an independent power supply is added to trailer Scalability of whole system * available with different size, but still movable * basic version for manual operation * extended version with extension for several nozzles * independent automatic operation with fire detector and electric activation/release of extinguishing process Scalability of extinguishing agent tank * tanks, +pressure tanks, with different extinguishing agents applicable Scalability of spray nozzle * full jet * circular jet * flat * double Protection Effectiveness: * available at hotspots * direct fire fighting * quickly movable to an upcoming fire * also for escape route securing * temperature is reduced quickly Advantages: * ready to use * easy to handle * no special training necessary * extendable * independent from other systems * easy technical design * movable So such system offers: * fast response * cost efficiency * minimum installation effort * few maintenance * scalability Disadvantage: Limited operation site with one system ...but upgradable with more systems
