A sound and heat insulating blanket is presented comprising: a) a first layer of fabric comprising first fibers; and b) a first sound barrier film comprising a first rubber; wherein the first layer of fabric and first sound barrier film are bound together through a first interpenetrated binding layer wherein the first rubber of the first sound barrier film is interpenetrated by the first fibers of the first layer of fabric; and optionally c) a second layer of fabric comprising second fibers; wherein the second layer of fabric and first sound barrier film are bound together through a second interpenetrated binding layer wherein the first cured composition of the first sound barrier film is interpenetrated by the second fibers of the second layer of fabric. Typically, the sound and heat insulating blanket comprises no adhesive binding the first and second layers of fabric and the sound barrier film.

A blanket providing a plurality of pockets in which to contain fire suppression compound. A blanket can be wrapped around a container of flammable liquid to resist fire resulting from a ballistic attack. Fire suppression compound carried in a pocket may be provided as a plurality of sub-portions individually disposed in a respective pouch. End caps may also be included to further surround a container with fire suppression compound.

Disclosed is a device for protecting a user from smoke or fire, including a sealed dome-like cover. An opening provided in the cover front portion enables emergency oxygen to force smoke present under the cover to be expelled by positive air pressure through a space below the waist. The dome-like cover is overlaid from above the top of the head to at least the waist of the user and connected to a source of oxygen. The device is reversible so that it can also be used as a stretcher. The materials used enable use as a thermal blanket. The device can be provided compactly folded in a bag that can provide lumbar support thereby ensuring that miners will always carry the device with them. A step of vacuum sealing for a predetermined amount of time ensures malleability of the compact device for enhanced lumbar support and device longevity.

Disclosed is a fire extinguisher cover for covering over a motor vehicle, the battery of which has caught fire. The cover comprises a sheet for covering over the vehicle, the sheet comprising an opening disposed thereon, and a casing assembly comprising a plurality of spaced apart casings and a drawstring running through the plurality of casings. The drawstring is arranged to be tightened to achieve a tight abutment between the casing assembly, the ground and the vehicle tires when the vehicle is covered by the sheet, and the fire-extinguishing fluid is run through the at least one opening to be fill up between the vehicle and the sheet resulting in said fluid reaching the battery for extinguishing the fire emanating therefrom.

A collapsible cooking oil fire extinguishing device having a shaft with two rigid support arms for support of a fire resistant material. An automatic locking mechanism with a manual pivot mechanism enables changing the device between a collapsed storage position and an expanded usage position. The rigid support arms extend only partially around the perimeter of the fire resistant material, which enables the fire resistant material to tightly cover a cooking oil fire in a vessel with a handle. The pivot mechanism, automatic locking means, and rigid support arms allow the user to exert downward pressure on the burning vessel, thereby creating an airtight seal, cutting off the supply of oxygen and extinguishing the fire. The spring in the automatic locking mechanism is not under compression in the storage position, which increases reliability and prevents malfunction during long periods of time in the storage position.

A flexible bag includes an inner compartment for receiving a hot and/or burning object, the bag being able to be rolled up and/or folded, and including an opening for insertion of the object into the inner compartment. The flexible bag further includes an outer compartment that can be accessed from the exterior where the outer compartment is provided on the third of the bag lying opposite the opening and where a fire extinguisher is housed in the outer compartment in order to hold and dispense a fire-extinguishing agent.

A fire resistant system comprising a flexible blanket sized to be deployable on or over an edifice, or part thereof, the blanket being flame retardant and heat resistant, the blanket consisting of aromatic polyamide (aramid) fibers defining a knit yarn fabric, the blanket fabric defining distributed vent openings of small size to freely pass air from one side of the blanket to the other, and away from elongated edifice associated objects such as hot embers, the blanket having edges configured to be pulled for distributing the blanket over the edifice.
