Hydration turbine
A tower and a wind turbine and be able to shoot water from the center point of a three to five blade wind turbine in a concentrated direction and from the blades to disperse water/fire retardant in a light to heavy spray from the tips of the blades covering a wider area for creating clean energy and suppressing wildfires.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PREVENTING THE SPREAD OF FIRE
System and methods of protecting against the spread of fire. A method includes receiving data from at least one sensor. The method determines whether the data satisfies risk criteria for a first zone and/or a second zone of a plurality of zones of a structure. The first zone is associated with a first set of nozzles of a plurality of nozzles and the second zone is associated with a second set of nozzles of the plurality of nozzles. In accordance with a determination that the data satisfies the risk criteria for the first zone and not the second zone, the method provides first instructions to a pump to distribute a fire suppressant from a reservoir via a supply line fluidically coupled to the plurality of nozzles. The method further provides second instructions to a manifold to distribute the fire suppressant via the first set of nozzles and not the second zone.
FIRE-RETARDANT DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
A system for fire suppression comprising: a container; an agitator; a pump; a distribution head; and a control module; wherein the container is configured to store a fire retardant; wherein the agitator is housed within the container; and wherein the pump is configured to draw the fire retardant to the distribution head; wherein the agitator is configured to periodically agitate the fire retardant.
Precision Aerial Firefighting and Deluge System for Helicopters and Unmanned Aerial Systems
The precision aerial firefighting and deluge system for helicopters and unmanned aerial systems is a device to attack fires inaccessible to firefighters due to altitude or other obstructions by streaming water or other fire retardant into or onto a specific location on the ground, on the water, or at altitude. The system employs a medium or heavy lift helicopter or unmanned aerial systems one or more tanks or bladders for water and/or fire retardant chemicals, a compressed air foam system, a pump, rigid plumbing lines for outflow of water/fire retardant; a rigid, telescopic boom that extends beyond rotor tip path plane, flexible lines/hoses inside boom; a crew switched electronic boom controller, a boom management system, a flange adapter, an electric, variable direction, crew-controlled fire monitor, a drop-hose, and a dart with inertial feathers.
WIRELESS COMMUNICATION NETWORK, GPS-TRACKED MOBILE SPRAYING SYSTEMS, AND A COMMAND SYSTEM CONFIGURED FOR PROACTIVELY SPRAYING ENVIRONMENTALLY-SAFE ANTI-FIRE CHEMICAL LIQUID ON COMBUSTIBLE PROPERTY SURFACES TO PROTECT PROPERTY AGAINST FIRE IGNITION AND FLAME SPREAD IN THE PRESENCE OF WILD FIRE
A GPS tracking and mapping wild fire defense system network configured for defending homes and neighborhoods against threat of wild fire by proactively spraying environmentally-safe anti-fire (AF) chemical liquid on property surfaces to inhibit fire ignition and flame spread in the presence of wild fire. The GPS tracking and mapping wild fire defense system network includes: a command center in operable communication with a wireless communication network; and one or more GPS-tracked mobile anti-fire liquid spraying systems, each having an integrated supply tank and a spray pump deployable at properties having building structures, for spraying the properties with environmentally-clean anti-fire chemical liquid using a spray nozzle assembly connected to said spray pump by way of a fluid connection. The system network further includes: a GPS system for transmitting GPS reference signals from a constellation of GPS satellites deployed in orbit around the Earth, to a GPS transceiver installed aboard each GPS-tracking mobile anti-fire liquid spraying system, for GPS processing and GPS-coordinate location; and one or more mobile computing systems, each for use by a registered user including property parcel owners, spray contractors, and other stakeholders on the system network, to request and receive services supported by said system network. Each mobile computing system has a display screen supporting: messaging services; display of maps indicating where wild fires have been identified and mapped, tracked and ranked in terms of risk to the user and GPS-specified property; and scheduling of spray task to be performed, and recording tasks that been completed, and which are in progress, on the GPS tracking and mapping wild fire defense system network.
WIldfire Home Protection System
A system and method for providing a wildfire home protection water blanket is disclosed. The system includes a plurality of water blanket distributors attached to and integrated into the fascia of a building, a water source and control components for connecting the plurality of water blanket distributors to a water source, and a water line connecting the plurality of water blanket distributors to the water valve, the water line receives water from the water valve upon receiving a user command. The plurality of water blanket distributors comprise an enclosure attached to and integrated into the fascia of the building under the eaves, a plurality of water distribution nozzles and a water line. The water source and control components comprise the water valve and a WIFI-enabled controller.
NETWORKS, SYSTEMS AND METHODS HAVING A HYDRATION PLAN CONTROL SYSTEM FOR WILDFIRE MITIGATION
There is provided networks, systems and displays for providing derived data and predictive information for use in emergencies; and in particular for use in wildfire emergencies. More particularly, there is provided systems, equipment and networks for the monitoring and collecting of raw data regarding fire emergencies, both real time and historic. In embodiments, this raw data is then analyzed to provide derived data, predictive data, virtual data, and combinations and variations of this data, which depending upon the nature of this data may be packaged, distributed, displayed and used in various setting and applications to mitigate, avoid and manage the emergency, including a wildfire emergency. In an embodiment the external fire management system has a control system that has hydration plan control commands.
FIRE GUARD
An apparatus for protecting structures against wildfires by means of thermal insulation.
PROTECTING BUILDINGS AGAINST WILDFIRE AND STRONG WIND
Apparatuses and methods for protecting buildings which are likely to fall in the path of wildfire and/or strong wind are disclosed. The apparatus comprises two main parts: the first part comprises a set of rigid poles pre-installed in the ground surrounding a building to be protected, and, the second part comprises a set of frames, each frame supporting a mesh that, when extended over the building to be protected, shields at least a portion of the building underlying the mesh from the destructive force of fire and/or strong wind. The set of frames with its corresponding meshes, when assembled together, forms a continuous protective pyramid-shaped net that covers the entire building. The set of frames and the set of rigid poles have complementary mechanical receptacles to lock with one another so that the rigid poles collectively provide ground support when the frames are deployed over the building.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR USING A FIRE RESISTANT BLANKET FOR FIRE SUPPRESSION
An airborne fire suppression system comprising a flying device, a deployment apparatus and folded fire suppressing blanket configured to allow quick and smooth deployment on or as a barrier to a forest fire or a building or other object on fire.
