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.
Unmanned glider system for payload dispersion
A disposable unmanned aerial glider (UAG) with pre-determined UAG flight capabilities. The UAG comprises a flight module comprising at least one aerodynamic arrangement; and a fuselage module comprising a container configured for storing therein a payload and having structural integrity. The container is pressurized so as to maintain structural integrity thereof at least during flight, so that the UAG flight capabilities are provided only when the container is pressurized.
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.
DRONE SYSTEM
The present invention relates a drone system for transporting liquid or gas from a remote area to a demand area. The drone system (100) includes: a transport pipe (10) for flowing the liquid or the gas; a pump device (201) for suppling the liquid or the gas to the transport pipe (10); a top drone (1) for holding a nozzle (11) coupled to a tip end of the transport pipe (10); a plurality of pump drones (6A, 6B), each of which incorporates a pump (40A, 40B); and a power supply unit (3) for suppling a power to the top drone (1) and the pump drones (6A, 6B) through power cables (5). Each of the pump drones (6A, 6B) has a coupling mechanism (35) for tiltably and rotatably coupling the pump (40A, 40B) to a pump drone body (30).
Firefighting gas releasing apparatuses and methods
Firefighting gas releasing apparatuses may include a trigger housing. A containment shell may have a plurality of shell sections pivotally carried by the trigger housing. The plurality of shell sections may be positional in a closed shell configuration and an open shell configuration. A shell interior may be formed by the containment shell in the closed shell configuration. The shell interior may be configured to contain a supply of at least one fire-suppressing gas. A selectively-actuatable shell releasing assembly may be carried by the trigger housing. The shell releasing assembly may be configured to engage the plurality of shell sections and maintain the containment shell in the closed shell configuration and disengage the plurality of shell sections for deployment of the containment shell to the open shell configuration. Firefighting gas releasing methods are also disclosed.
ENVIRONMENTALLY-CLEAN DRY POWDER CHEMICAL COMPOSITIONS FOR EXTINGUISHING FIRES INVOLVING FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS
Dry powder chemical compositions for extinguishing fires involving flammable hydrocarbon liquids such as, oils, fuels and non-polar solvents such as ketones and alcohols. The dry powder chemical compositions are made by mixing, blending and milling to suitable powder particle sizes, the following components: a fire extinguishing agent in the form of at least one alkali metal salt of a nonpolymeric saturated carboxylic acid; a powder fluidizing agent to help provide the dry powder composition with excellent fluid flow characteristics; and a surfactant that promotes the formation of anhydrous semi-crystalline metal mineral salt film onto the surface of flammable hydrocarbon liquids, involved in the fire outbreaks to be extinguished and preferably absorbed by the dry powder chemical compositions.
Fire resistant aerial vehicle for suppressing widespread fires
A concentric, double hull, damage tolerant airframe vehicle double clad with a lightweight, impact resistant ceramic matrix composite for heat shielding and flame resistance, and fitted with insulation, to provide thermal protection from 35° C. to 1,650° C. of the internal fuselage areas for an extended period of time within an extreme heat environment, that will serve as a semi or fully autonomous vehicle, manned or unmanned, preferably an unmanned aerial vehicle designed as the delivery means to suppress or extinguish flames by repeatedly discharging pressure waves against flames without having to exit the fire environment.
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.
FIRE RESISTANT AERIAL VEHICLE FOR SUPPRESSING WIDESPREAD FIRES
A concentric, double hull, damage tolerant airframe vehicle double clad with a lightweight, impact resistant ceramic matrix composite for heat shielding and flame resistance, and fitted with insulation, to provide thermal protection from 35° C. to 1,650° C. of the internal fuselage areas for an extended period of time within an extreme heat environment, that will serve as a semi or fully autonomous vehicle, manned or unmanned, preferably an unmanned aerial vehicle designed as the delivery means to suppress or extinguish flames by repeatedly discharging pressure waves against flames without having to exit the fire environment.
System and Method for Resonant Acoustic Fire Suppression via Linear Driver or Thermoacoustic Generation
A novel fire control and extinguishing method intended for a Fire Suppression System. This system can be mounted statically, deployed from a vehicle, or incorporated into a complete unmanned vehicle (autonomous or remotely operated) using an electrical system or thermoacoustic means to generate acoustic waves to accomplish fire control and/or fire suppression. This approach eliminates the need for a vehicle to carry chemical flame retardants/extinguishers, or other traditional fire combating means, resulting in an impactful environmental footprint reduction and a marked specific efficiency improvement. The acoustic wave is generated through thermoacoustic or mechanical means using a linear actuator of magnet-and-coil, piezoelectric, or magnetostrictive construction and operating near mechanical, electrical, and acoustic resonance to reduce system power and mass.
