The current invention proposes a Water bomb and fins made from bio polyethylene (bio-PVC) and designed to extinguish fires in hard-to-reach areas, for instance, forests and mountains. The water bombs are dropped from any cargo aircraft and from a height of at least 2 km (for arducam fire detection bomb) and 1 km (passive bomb option). The Water Bomb hits the inferno of the fire as a result of a free fall aided by four panning fins. The bomb consists of three partsthe nose with an arducam fire detection camera, the central section, and the rear section where the four fins, water inlet connector, and mini avionics board with Arduino nano guidance kit are located. The water capacity of the Water Bomb varies from a minimum version of 1400 liters (370 gallons) to a maximum of 2500 liters (600 gallons).

A digitally controlled mobile ground launching fire retardant delivery system. The system is configured to launch fire retardant projectiles at wildfires located in a small fire area that is considered inaccessible by fire personnel, due to the terrain, elevation and/or remote location. The system is also advantageously configured to launch soft-ball size objects at remote wildfires. The soft ball sized objects will contain at least one beneficial fire-retardant substance contained therein.

An apparatus for launching incendiary spheres for prescribed burning is provided. This apparatus receives charged, or injected, spherical incendiaries, then launches them in a controlled direction at a controlled distance. The charged incendiaries are first emitted from a conventional Plastic Sphere Dispenser (PSD) into the intake of the apparatus whereupon they are moved along a lower pathway by a delivering wheel to a launching point relative to a spinning wheel or a plurality of spinning wheels. These spinning wheels convey velocity to each incendiary sphere, which is thereby launched in a trajectory that is determined by the azimuth of orientation, and the rotational velocity, of the spinning wheels.

An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) can be configured for fire suppression and ignition. In some examples, the UAV includes an aerial propulsion system, an ignition system, and a control system. The ignition system includes a container of delayed-ignition balls and a dropper configured, by virtue of one or more motors, to actuate and drop the delayed-ignition balls. The control system is configured to cause the UAV to fly to a site of a prescribed burn and, while flying over the site of the prescribed burn, actuate one or more of the delayed-ignition balls. After actuating the one or more delayed-ignition balls, the UAV drops the actuated one or more delayed-ignition balls from the UAV onto the site of the prescribed burn.

When it comes to extinguishing destructive fires, one of the greatest tragedies of property loss in fires is the damage done by the water during the extinguishing process. It can be extreme. This invention eliminates the water and the resulting damage and greatly reduces the cost of cleanup and repair after the fire is extinguished.

Furthermore, the greatest threat to fire emergency personnel is close proximity to the fire. Often times, in order to put out a fire, such as in a building, a firefighter must enter the building to get access to the fire. This entails great danger and sometimes death or injury. This invention makes it easier and faster for firefighters to apply fire-extinguishing agents to the fire without entering the building.

Current technology does not offer these benefits.

Provided is a dropping-type fire extinguishing body that, in fire extinguishing using a gel-like fire extinguishing agent, can allow the fire extinguishing agent to be smoothly conveyed and dropped. A dropping-type fire extinguishing body 1 to be dropped onto the fire site to extinguish the fire, wherein a gelling agent 3 is contained in a bag body 2 formed of a water-permeable material and water is permeated into the body and is mixed with the gelling agent to prepare a gel-like fire extinguishing agent, thereby filling the gel-like fire extinguishing agent into the inside of the bag body.

The present invention relates to a fire extinguishing firefighting drone which, in case of a fire in a house, a structure, a building, or the like, can be rapidly introduced and extinguish a fire in an early stage of the fire, and can be remotely operated in an unmanned manner through connection with a central control system. The fire extinguishing firefighting drone includes a flight unit configured to include propeller units, a disaster prevention turret unit configured to spray a fire-extinguishing chemical, a plurality of movement units configured to move a body unit, and a disaster prevention means unit configured to be provided with items adapted to spray a fire-extinguishing chemical, to launch a fire-extinguishing bomb, or to save lives.

An artillery shell is fired out of a gun towards a fire. A trigger releases a fire-retarding material from the artillery shell to retard the fire.

A fire retarding missile and method of use having a unitary construction and containing a propulsion system as well as fire treatment materials. Dispersal of the materials can be initiated both actively and passively, with passive dispersal allowing for a fail safe mode of operation. The fire treatment materials are of the oxygen reduction type, and the method of the invention is to target the hot spot of a fire in order to reduce the spread and intensity thereof. An active guidance system may be of the heat seeking type, or may alternatively be remote controlled video. Stabilizer and guidance fins are controlled in response to signals from the guidance system in order to precisely position the device. In one embodiment, the device can be broken down to allow for easy replacement of certain components. The device can be modified for use in fires of specific heat ranges by using nose cones designed to melt in a respective heat range.

Apparatus and method for firefighting includes a containerless core of a fire retardant material, compressed to form a prolate spheroid shape. A shaft with fins and a carrying hook can extend from the core tail. The core can have a core charge of an explosive material within the core channel. An altimeter sensor coupled to the core charge and a triggering mechanism is coupled between the altimeter sensor and the core charge, and causes the triggering mechanism to detonate the core charge when the apparatus reaches an altitude. A delivery apparatus is included with a frame having carry harness, and at least one holding hook on the frame coupled to the carrying hook. The carry harness supports delivery apparatus in transport. Powders of calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, ammonium sulfate, diammonium sulfate, diammonium phosphate, ammonium polyphosphate, or monoammonium phosphate can be intermixed as fire retardant, along with indigenous plant seed.
