20230264058 · 2023-08-24 ·

A fire protection system includes a fire extinguisher including a housing. The housing includes an extinguisher outlet and a burst disk. The burst disk configured to retain a volume of fire suppressant material in the housing. A firing cartridge is operably connected to the housing. The firing cartridge includes an output charge, and an ignition charge that, when detonated, causes release of the output charge to rupture the burst disk and release the volume of fire suppressant material through the extinguisher outlet. An optical fiber is configured to transmit a light signal toward the ignition charge to heat and detonate the ignition charge. A light source is operably connected to the optical fiber to transmit the light signal along the optical fiber.

A fire protection system includes two or more fire extinguishers. Each fire extinguisher includes a housing, the housing including an extinguisher outlet and a burst disk. The burst disk is configured to retain a volume of fire suppressant material in the housing. A firing cartridge is operably connected to the housing and includes an output charge, and an ignition charge that, when detonated, causes release of the output charge to rupture the burst disk and release the volume of fire suppressant material through the extinguisher outlet. An optical fiber is configured to transmit a light signal toward the ignition charge to heat and detonate the ignition charge. A light source is operably connected to the optical fiber to selectably transmit a first light signal to selectably activate a first fire extinguisher or a second fire extinguisher of the two or more fire extinguishers.

Fire extinguishing device and method
11213706 · 2022-01-04 · ·

A fire extinguishing device comprising liquid nitrogen filled canister-tank attached to a device to release the LN contents; wherein, the release mechanism comprises a small explosive to tear open the canister and rapidly disperse the LN. The bombs are opened at desired locations and are delivered by any means comprising the aerial, vehicle, drone, robotic systems and hand operated by firemen. The device is used for the purpose of extinguishing forest fires or structure fires.

FIRE EXTINGUISHING SYSTEM FOR TIRE OF VEHICLE
20230310911 · 2023-10-05 ·

In an embodiment a fire extinguishing system includes a plurality of fire extinguishing injectors filled with fire extinguishing chemicals, the fire extinguishing injectors configured to be installed in a vehicle to be able to inject the fire extinguishing chemical to a tire and a fire detection line installed to connect between the plurality of fire extinguishing injectors, wherein each of the fire extinguishing injectors comprises a pressure generator in which a pressure generation chemical is installed and a tank is filled with the fire extinguishing chemical, the tank having a plurality of injection holes, wherein the fire detection line is connected to each pressure generator to generate injection pressure due to the pressure generation chemical when a fire is detected through the fire detection line, and wherein each tank is coupled to the pressure generator to allow the fire extinguishing chemical in the tank to be injected through the injection holes due to action of the injection pressure generated by the pressure generator.

Fire suppressant device and method, including expansion agent
11752378 · 2023-09-12 · ·

A device for suppressing and/or extinguishing a fire associated with a container may include a housing defining a hollow sleeve and a column configured to be received within the hollow sleeve. The column may define a first chamber, a second chamber, at least one aperture, and a piercing end configured to pierce a barrier. The first chamber may be configured to receive an expansion agent, and the second chamber may be configured to receive a fire extinguishing agent. The device may be configured such that upon activation of the expansion agent, the column extends from the housing so as to enable the piercing end to penetrate the container and to enable the fire extinguishing agent to be delivered into an interior of the container via the at least one aperture.

Stovetop fire suppressor with shuttle actuator and method
11648428 · 2023-05-16 · ·

An automatic stovetop fire suppressor is activated by a shuttle actuator. The self-contained and closed container device provides a gradual release of a fire suppressing agent in a desired distribution pattern. A method of reliable and spatial agent release are provided herein. A plastic cone shaped lid seals on the bottom of a can and forms a closed container. The closed container is filled with a fire suppressing agent. An initiator charge is housed external to the container of fire suppressing agent and is fuse activated. The activated charge displaces the shuttle. As the shuttle displaces, vertical support for the bottom cone lid is removed and a compression spring breaks a circumferential seal between the bottom lid and container cylindrical sidewall and lowers the bottom lid exposing a radial opening. Fire suppressing agent flows out of the radial opening, suppressing a stovetop fire.
