A combination recessed light with a smoke sensor and a carbon monoxide detector to detect for both smoke and carbon monoxide gas in a room. The recessed light can be a wafer style recessed light with an LED light source with a cover plate forming a smoke collection chamber with a smoke detecting sensor located within. A smoke collecting area is located below the LED light source and is connected to the smoke collection chamber thru one or more holes. A box mounted to a wall of the room can have a carbon monoxide sensor, a battery, and speaker, and a test button to sound an alarm for both the smoke sensor and the carbon monoxide sensor. The test button is used to test both the smoke detector and the CO sensor. An array of recessed lights is mounted to a ceiling and a power convertor device converts 110-volt power to 20-volt power that is supplied to each of then LED light sources.

The present invention relates to a system for testing the availability of a detector for detecting smoke. More specifically, the present invention relates to a detector with a testing unit arranged to detect whether the detector has been covered, such that it is unable to perform its function as a smoke detector.

A fire detection apparatus 1A includes a detector cover 70A for inhibiting ambient light from entering a detection space 60A, an inner cover 30A that accommodates the detection space 60A and the detector cover 70A, an outer cover 20A that accommodates the inner cover 30A, a first opening 30aA provided in a side portion on an opposite side from a side portion on an installation surface side among side portions of the inner cover 30A, a second opening provided in a side portion on an opposite side from a side portion on an installation surface among side portions of the detector cover 70A, and a flat plate-shaped insect screen 50A provided on the detector cover 70A and configured to substantially cover the entire second opening.

The present application provides an installation base, and a fire detector or a fire alarm. The installation base includes: a base body, which has a plurality of installation holes; locking assemblies, which are arranged in the installation holes of the base body, and which are switched between a locked position and a released position relative to the installation holes when the locking assemblies are rotated and/or pressed; and conductive assemblies, which hold wires when the locking assemblies are switched to the locked position so that electrical conduction is realized. In the installation base for a fire detector or a fire alarm according to the present application, through a cooperation of the locking assemblies, the base body and the conductive assemblies, quick electrical connection and maintenance of the installation base are realized.

Devices, methods, and systems for a self-testing fire sensing device are described herein. One device includes an adjustable particle generator and a variable airflow generator configured to generate an aerosol density level, an optical scatter chamber configured to measure a rate at which the aerosol density level decreases after the aerosol density level has been generated, and a controller configured to compare the measured rate at which the aerosol density level decreases with a baseline rate, and determine whether the self-testing fire sensing device requires maintenance based on the comparison of the measured rate at which the aerosol density level decreases and the baseline rate.

An example duct detector may include a detection chamber and a control circuitry stacked vertically on top of the detection chamber. A sealing gasket may seal the contact between the substrate of the control circuitry (e.g., the seal may be at the bottom surface of a printed circuit board containing the control circuitry) and the detection chamber such that particles analyzed the detection chamber may not damage the control circuitry. Therefore, by providing a sealed barrier between the control circuitry and the detection chamber, the sealing gasket allows for a reduced footprint of having the stacked control circuitry and the detection chamber. As the seal does not create an barrier (the barrier is for the detection chamber) for a repair personnel to access the control circuitry, repairs to the duct detectors may be easier because the seal may not have to be broken and resealed during the repair process.

An AFE chip for a smoke detector includes a DC/DC boost converter having a boost input, a boost output, and a boost upper power supply input. The boost input is coupled to a first pin that is adapted for coupling to a battery through an inductor and the boost output is coupled to a second pin. The DC/DC boost converter is configured to not switch when a voltage on the second pin is greater than a programmed boost voltage. A set of power regulator circuits have a power input, which is coupled to a third pin, and a power output. The third pin is adapted for receiving an input voltage, the power output is coupled to provide an internal voltage, and the set of power regulator circuits are further coupled to the boost upper power supply input.

Problems:

There is a technology using the reflected light which is emitted from the light-emitting element and reflects without being absorbed in the inside of the optical bench, in order to detect whether the light-emitting element and the light-receiving element normally function. In this case, they do not normally function when there is either too little or too much reflected light in the inside of the optical bench. It is therefore an object of the present invention to achieve a suitable amount of reflected light inside the optical bench.

Means for solving the problems:

A light-receiving element 93 and a first light-emitting element 91 are disposed in a position in which the light-receiving element 93 receives forward-scattered light produced when smoke in the smoke detection part 10 is irradiated with first irradiation light emitted from the first light-emitting element 91. A secondary reflecting plate 716 is provided on a side of the first light-emitting element 91 inside the peripheral wall. The secondary reflecting plate 716 is configured to form secondary reflected light when the smoke detection part 10 without smoke is irradiated with the first irradiation light. The secondary reflecting plate 716 receives primary reflected light resulting from reflection of the first irradiation light from the peripheral wall and reflects the primary reflected light, and then allows the formed secondary reflected light to enter the light-receiving element 93.
