    摘要: Methods, apparatuses and systems for detecting a flame zone are provided. The flame zone detecting apparatus includes a controller component; and at least one flame zone detecting component in electronic communication with the controller component. Each of the at least one flame zone detecting component comprises a freeform mirror, a micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) mirror, and a sensor, and the controller component is configured to: reflect an incoming optical signal by a reflecting surface of the freeform mirror; reflect the incoming optical signal reflected by the freeform mirror by a reflecting surface of the MEMS mirror; detect the incoming optical signal reflected by the MEMS mirror by the sensor; and determine a flame zone according to the incoming optical signal.

    摘要: The subject of the invention is a system and method for detecting and predicting fires, in particular wildfires. The system for detecting and predicting fires comprises a set of local detection devices (100) and a central unit (200), the central unit (200) being configured to receive and analyse environmental parameter measurements from the set of local detection devices (100). The system is characterized in that the central unit (200) is further configured to receive an alarm signal indicative of fire detection risk from at least one detection device (100), and to verify the fire detection risk by checking the presence of predefined number of detection devices (100) sending the alarm signal within a common analysis time window, and if the fire detection risk is confirmed then to predict the fire probability and fire localization with the use of an heuristic prediction model (201b).

    摘要: A housing for a scattered light detection unit of a smoke detection device, the housing comprises a base (2) fastened to a mounting plate (1), the base is provided with guiding channels (8) for mounting and directing optical elements, and limiting barriers (9) are attached to the channels (8), the barriers are arranged on an inner end surface (10) of the base (2) and surrounded by an opaque wall (7) that is concentric to a lateral outer wall (6), a casing (3) mounted on the base (2), the casing has a lateral portion (13) that encompasses the base (2) and the mounting plate (1) and a disc portion (15) that is parallel to the base (2), the disc portion is provided with an opening (16) having an edge that is directed towards the base (2) and coaxial to the opaque wall (7), and a cover element (7) that is fastened on the casing (3).
    A configuration of the housing elements enables to create a smoke chamber having a first part that is formed by the base (2) and the casing (3) and a second part that is formed by a central portion (19) provided in the cover element (4), while providing a slit (24) between them, and a gas-air mixture comes into the smoke chamber through the slit and concentrates therein due to making a curved inner end surface of the central portion (19) with a transition to a cone-like protrusion (28). Therewith, paths of incoming and filtration of the gas-air mixture are provided, from outside, by making series of concentrically arranged slit-like openings (21) in a peripheral portion (20) of the cover element (4) and its division into sectors by radial partitions (26).
