A conduit fitting is provided herein. The conduit fitting may be configured to couple to an electrical mechanical tubing (EMT) often used in a fire suppression system. The conduit fitting may include an upper cylindrical section and a lower conical section. The upper cylindrical section and the lower conical section can both include a slit extending partially through the conduit fitting.

A fire-resistant cover is configured for placement over a stove top. The cover is composed of three sections, which can be autonomous of or conjoined to each other. This allows for facile cleaning, removal, and placement of the cover on the surface of the stove top. The cover comports to uneven surfaces and heterogeneities on the surface to form a leveled environment.

An approach for identifying mitigation solution based on critical situations is disclosed. The approach includes detecting one or more critical situations associated within a structure and detecting one or more location of one or more users in the structure. The approach retrieves a user-knowledge corpus based on one or more smart IoT devices or from existing database. Furthermore, the approach retrieves a critical situation knowledge corpus from various servers and creates risk mitigation action plans to address the one or more critical situations. The approach selects an optimal plan, by leveraging machine learning through combinatorial optimization technique, from the existing risk mitigation action plans and executing the optimal plan.

Systems and methods for remote monitoring of mechanical fire suppression systems are provided. For example, some embodiments generally provide for a smart fire suppression system with integrated sensors and communication technology to monitor the current state of the fire suppression system and notify various monitoring platforms, service providers, equipment manufacturers and/or others of the current state. In some embodiments, various sensors (e.g., micro switches) can be used to detect and report the status of the cartridge, activation status of the system, and/or the status of the detection line. Additional sensors and actuators may be also be included within the smart fire suppression system to allow monitoring of different states (e.g., temperature) and control the appliance and/or building utilities.

The present invention relates to a fire extinguishing system for a commercial kitchen. The fire extinguishing system comprises a canister containing a fire extinguishing agent and a gas expellant. In the event of a fire or conditions that pose a threat of a fire, the internal pressure in the canister is utilized to actuate a main control valve of the canister which releases the fire extinguishing agent from the canister.

A fire suppression system for stoves is shown and described. The fire suppression system for stoves includes a first pressurized tank filled with a fire suppression material. The first pressurized tank is fluidly connected to a first side of a piping system. A second pressurized tank filled with a fire suppression material. The second pressurized tank is fluidly connected to a second side of a piping system. The piping system has a plurality of nozzles pointing at burners of a stove. A first temperature gauge is connected to a first release device. The first release device will dispense the fire suppression material from the first pressurized tank. A second temperature gauge is connected to a second release device. The second release device will dispense the fire suppression material from the second pressurized tank.

An initiator with fuse device for an automatic self-contained fire suppressor and method are provided herein. Stovetop fires are a well-known residential and commercial hazard. An initiator with fuse device provides a reliable activation of an automatic stovetop fire suppressor. A device and method which provides a secure and robust attachment of an initiator to a fire suppressor, while reducing required component parts, manufacturing time, and labor, is provided herein. An initiator cup with integral cylindrical extension affords a thermoform attachment of the cup to the fire suppressor container while providing a secure mechanical attachment of the fuse to the initiator cup.

Described herein is a kitchen ventilation system, comprising: a kitchen hood communicative with a kitchen exhaust duct; a fan communicative with the hood to create an air flow through the hood and to the exhaust duct; a fire barrier air filter mounted to the hood to receive and filter the air flow, the fire barrier air filter comprising a plurality of elongate extruded bodies in parallel alignment; each extruded body bound by first and second opposing concave surfaces and first and second baffle surfaces, the first and second baffle surfaces oriented transverse to the air flow; and at least one of the of the first and second concave surfaces oriented in facing opposition to a neighboring concave surface provided by a neighboring extruded body to form a cooperating pair of facing concave surfaces, the pair of facing concave surfaces defining a narrow longitudinal inlet gap, a narrow longitudinal outlet gap, and a longitudinal tubular chamber communicating therebetween. A kit providing at least a fire barrier air filter of the system and instructions for its installation is also described. A method of fire prevention using components of the system or kit is also described.

An apparatus is disclosed for extinguishing a stovetop fire over a stovetop having a first burner, the apparatus including a container detachably mountable to a microwave positioned above the stove top. A supply of fire suppressant material is retained within the container. A heat responsive actuator is disposed on the container. When the container is mounted to the microwave over the first burner, and the fire actuates the heat responsive actuator, at least a portion of the supply of fire suppressant material falls from the container toward the first burner.
