The present invention provides a fire extinguishing sheet suitable for productivity, mass production, and large-scale production, wherein the fire extinguishing sheet can be used in places, facilities, structures, etc., where a fire may occur, and has an initial fire extinguishing function. The fire extinguishing sheet according to the present invention contains a fire extinguishing agent that when a predetermined temperature is reached, thermally decomposes to generate a fire extinguishing component.

A battery module has a structure capable of preventing spread of flames when fire breaks out in the battery module, and more particularly a battery module including a plurality of battery cell module assemblies, each of the battery cell module assemblies including battery cells arranged in tight contact with each other, a side plate electrically connected to electrode leads of the battery cell module assemblies, a duct disposed outside the side plate, and a gas cutoff structure disposed in the duct, wherein the plurality of battery cell module assemblies is disposed so as to have a space therebetween.

A fire exposure protection sprinkler assembly provides fire exposure protection for one or more windows and includes a fire exposure protection sprinkler, a sealing assembly configured to unseal in response to a fire such that fire exposure protection fluid may flow from the fire exposure protection sprinkler, and a housing having a pair of legs, with each of the legs having an aperture. The assembly also includes a deflection assembly configured to extend from the housing due to gravity and activation of a cover plate, with a deflector configured to disperse the fire exposure protection fluid over the one or more windows so as to wet the one or more windows.

The invention provides a fire-stopping product, an insulated building façade comprising a fire-stopping product, and a method of making a fire-stopping product. The fire-stopping product comprises a resilient, porous material at least partially impregnated with an intumescent agent and held in compression by a releasable restraint. When exposed to hot gases from a fire, the restraint yields to release the resilient, porous material in an initial expansion, thereby exposing the intumescent agent to the hot gases and allowing rapid intumescence to occur. When implemented in a ventilated building façade, the fire-stopping product is able to close an air gap in a short amount of time.

Conduit through which at least one pipe or cable extends, wherein the conduit has an inner wall and is provided with a system for sealing in the conduit that is unoccupied by the at least one pipe or cable, wherein the system comprises: at least one rubber element for providing in the conduit a support-structure which is clamped-in between the inner wall and the at least one pipe or cable; and a sealant layer against the support-structure and for sealing off at least one end of the conduit between the inner wall and the at least one pipe or cable, wherein each rubber element is made of a fire-resistant vulcanized rubber of a thermally substantially non-expandable type, and wherein the sealant is made of a fire-resistant polymer which is vulcanizable at room temperature under exposure to humidity and which is also of the thermally substantially non-expandable type.

A firestop collar for sealing of openings, especially of line penetrations, that pass through walls or ceilings, has a frame and a block of optionally intumescent material disposed therein.

A powerplant can include a first prime mover configured to turn a propulsor, and a second prime mover operatively connected in parallel with the first prime mover to turn the propulsor together with or separately from the first prime mover. The powerplant can include a firewall disposed around at least one of the first prime mover or the second prime mover to create a first prime mover fire zone and a second prime mover fire zone separate from the first prime mover fire zone such that the first prime mover is protected against a second prime mover fire, and vice versa.
