FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEM AND METHOD

A fire suppression system includes a transport refrigeration unit configured to cool a transport container. Also included is a tubular container having a fire suppressant stored therein, the tubular container disposed within the transport refrigeration unit. Further included is a predetermined fracture location of the tubular container, wherein the predetermined fracture location is configured to rupture upon reaching a critical temperature to expel the fire suppressant.

CONCEALED EXTENDABLE NOZZLE FOR GASEOUS FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEMS (VARIANTS)
20170304663 · 2017-10-26 ·

The invention relates to a component of a gaseous fire suppression system. A concealed extendable nozzle for gaseous fire suppression systems is mounted on a distribution pipe of a gaseous fire suppression system. The nozzle consists of a body with discharge openings and a cap. A rod of a nipple is mounted inside the body of the nozzle. The nipple rod has a variable outside diameter: at one end, the rod narrows and ends in a connecting thread, whereas at the other end, the rod widens. Meanwhile, the body has an opening of variable diameter, which permits movement of the nipple rod inside the body; the body of the nozzle has a widening on the outside. A cap is fastened to the body of the nozzle, and this connection is tightly sealed by a washer. The technical result is the even dispersal of a gaseous fire extinguishant inside a room.

METHOD FOR PRODUCING THROUGH HOLE IN FLOOR SYSTEM FOR PIPE PENETRATION AND FLOOR SYSTEM USING THE SAME
20170335996 · 2017-11-23 ·

The present invention provides a method for producing a through hole in a floor system for pipe penetration. The method includes providing a deck system with ridge portions and valley portions; creating a hollow on the deck system; providing a ring with at least one securing ear formed on a perimeter thereof; mounting the ring onto the deck system by jointing the at least one securing ear of the ring and the at least one of the ridge portions such that the ring is fixedly received in the hollow of the deck system; and fixedly receiving a pipe casing in the ring mounted on the deck system, wherein the pipe casing defines a path for the pipe penetration. The method further includes forming a concrete layer on the deck system to obtain a composite slab.

Battery cooling method and system

An apparatus may store at least one object including at least one top end and at least one bottom end. The apparatus may include a container configured to store the at least one object and a pouch containing a liquid. The pouch may be configured to substantially cover the at least one top end of the at least one object when stored inside the container. The pouch may be configured to contact the at least one top end of the at least one object and to open when contacted by contents expelled from the at least one object due to thermal runaway.

Fire protection device and method for fire protection of an industrial oil cooker

Fire protection mist nozzles for industrial oil cookers, oil cookers with fire protection systems, and method of oil cooker fire protection are provided. The mist nozzles operate at pressures between 170 and 250 psi, and provide a unique distribution pattern that allows for variable installations for protection in certain operative environments including oil cookers with various hood configurations. The fire protection nozzles includes a base defining an inlet and an outlet along an axis. The base includes an orifice having an inlet diameter and an outlet diameter. The outlet diameter is preferably greater than the inlet diameter; and the orifice defines a K-factor of less than 1.0 gpm/psi½. The nozzle includes a diffuser aligned with the orifice. The diffuser has a preferably substantially domed portion with a maximum diameter that is less than the summation of the inlet diameter and the outlet diameter of the orifice.

Device for limiting the consequences of a widespread fire in premises

A device for limiting consequences of a fire, in a room, including a reservoir including a vessel containing a liquid, the reservoir including one or more chambers in communication with a storage cell and one or more other chambers. The reservoir also includes at least a first overflow tank and at least a second overflow tank, both integral, placed on either side of the reservoir, each tank configured to receive the liquid when the liquid exceeds a predetermined given height in the vessel.

Extended coverage dry pendent storage sprinkler for a large storage freezer

A dry sprinkler has a casing tube having an inlet orifice and an outlet orifice. When the sprinkler is in a non-actuated state, an inlet seal assembly operatively seals the inlet orifice and an outlet seat assembly operatively seals the outlet orifice. A translating member extends through the casing tube between an inlet and an outlet. The translating member axially translates from a first position, in which the translating member retains the inlet seal assembly in a sealed state, to a second position, in which the translating member releases the inlet seal assembly, toward the outlet when the outlet seat assembly is released. The sprinkler has a nominal K-factor greater than 17 gpm/(psi).sup.1/2. In addition, a difference between a cross-sectional area of the casing tube and a cross-sectional area bounded by an outer perimeter of the translating member is more than 30% of the cross-sectional area of the casing tube.
