Provided is a fire-fighting system that has a very simple structure with only a hose and a water discharge nozzle mounted on a vehicle, can bring the vehicle close to the fire site by automatic operation or remote control, and minimizes the occurrence of a water hammer when water is supplied. A hose reel is installed on a base which is installed on a vehicle, so as to be rotatable around a rotary shaft extending vertically, a hose having shape retaining property is spirally wound around the hose reel and around the rotary shaft, the lower end of the hose is connectable to a water discharge pump installed behind the vehicle, and the upper end of the hose passes through the rotary shaft of the hose reel and is connected to a water discharge nozzle installed at the upper position of the vehicle.

A battery arrangement with a battery housing in which at least one battery element is arranged. The battery arrangement includes an extinguishing device which has at least one extinguishing unit which is also arranged in the battery housing. The extinguishing unit includes a housing element and an extinguishing agent which is arranged in a cavity in the housing element. The extinguishing unit has a detonation mechanism which is designed to cause a detonation of the housing element and a release of the extinguishing agent in the form of an aerosol when a predetermined fire condition, which results from a fire in the at least one battery element, is present.

The invention relates to a device (10) for providing mist to a surrounding environment, the device (10) comprising a housing unit (12) having an inlet opening (18), an outlet opening (20), and a chamber (22) extending between the inlet opening (18) and the outlet opening (20) along a central axis (24); a nozzle unit (14) including at least one orifice (26); wherein the nozzle unit (14) is arranged in the chamber (22), the nozzle unit (14) being slidable along the central axis (24) between a closing position, in which the nozzle unit (14) closes the outlet opening (20), and an opening position, in which the at least one orifice (26) connects the chamber (22) to the surrounding environment in fluid communication; wherein the nozzle unit (14) transfers from the closing position to the opening position if a fluid pressure at the inlet opening (18) exceeds a predefined threshold; wherein the nozzle unit (14) comprises a deflector part (28) for deflecting fluid in the opening position and for closing the outlet opening (20) in the closing position, wherein the at least one orifice (26) is arranged offset to the central axis (24) between the inlet opening (18) and the deflector part (28); wherein the at least one orifice (26) is configured to guide fluid flowing through the at least one orifice (26) and to lead the fluid towards the deflector part (28). The invention provides an improved device (10) for providing mist to a surrounding environment, which reduces the required amount of fluid and increases the efficiency of the fluid distribution.

An automated telescopic water cannon and nozzle gun apparatuses that function by variable water pressure controlled by actuator and gear motor. Water pressure extends the water cannon nesting tubes and distance is restrained by center tube retainer cap connected to a winch cable. The water cannon handle bars are positioned for balancing allowing the firefighter to control the apparatus when tubes are extended and the winch reversed pulls the tubes back to the home position.. The bipod elevates, lowers, extends and retracts with actuators for positioning of the apparatus. The external tube has a an attachable polycarbonate heat and blast resistant shied connect at the end. The apparatus connected to the water tank may be transported by a helicopter to fight all types of fires, for an aerial attack. The water nozzle gun has an extended tube stock connection for control assistants and nozzle extension for direct and angle application.

A dispensing unit that consists of two or more dispensing solutions, at least one being a fluorine-free foam solution, and at least one hydrogel-based solution, and which involves the dispensing of each solution through one or more compressed air foam system (CAFS), where the CAFS may use compressed air, nitrogen, or other inert gas. The individual solutions may be mixed prior to the CAFS, or one or more solutions mixed after the CAFS, or they may be mixed in separate CAFS chambers. The resulting foam may be dispensed through a single line or through multiple lines, applied simultaneously and/or at different times, and may be controlled manually and/or through automatic controls, or through a combination of the above.

An exemplary fire suppression system includes a sprinkler nozzle. At least one conduit is connected to the nozzle for delivering a fire suppression fluid to the nozzle. The conduit and the nozzle establish a discharge path. A pneumatically driven pump is connected with the conduit for pumping fluid into the conduit. A gas source provides pressurized gas to the pump for driving the pump. The gas source also provides gas to the discharge path for achieving a desired discharge of the fluid from the nozzle. A controller selectively controls at least one of (i) the gas provided to the pump, which controls the fluid pressure in the conduit, or (ii) the gas provided to the nozzle or the conduit, which controls the gas pressure delivered to the nozzle.

A fire suppression system includes a Coolant Infusion Spray Nozzle (CISN) and a Coolant Introduction Adapter Cap (CIAC). The CISN includes a water inlet and a coolant inlet. The CISN also includes a coolant infuser with infusion aperture(s) for injecting coolant into the water as it is bypassing the coolant infuser. This CISN generates a fire suppressing stream of coolant and water mixture. The CIAC supplies water and coolant to the CISN. The CIAC is coupled to a water source, and is also coupled to the CISN via hoses. The CIAC can includes an elbow for directing coolant toward the CISN.

A fan assembly, and associated methods are shown. Fan assemblies and methods shown include nozzles within a housing of the fan. Fan assemblies and methods shown may provide water and/or fire suppression chemicals within a fan housing that provide characteristics such as increased thrust and motor cooling effects.
