Abstract: A remotely controlled twin-jet monitor apparatus is mounted on the end of an articulated water-conducting boom or arm, and is so constructed that the two jets emanating therefrom never create any resultant torque about the vertical axis through the mast for the boom. Accordingly, the boom may be made extremely large yet light in weight, and may be manipulated by small and low-power motor means. Means are provided to effect simultaneous rotation of both jets, and to change the angles of the jets relative to a predetermined plane, but without creating the indicated resultant torque.

Abstract: A remote controlled fire-fighting apparatus which remains completely below the ground surface when not in use. When the apparatus is to be used, a hatch covering the unit is opened and the nozzle raised to its operating position. The discharge nozzle can then be rotated in horizontal and/or vertical planes and directed at the source of the fire. After the fire has been extinguished, the apparatus is retracted into its underground housing and the hatch above it replaced. Numerous units of the apparatus are disposed along the runway and are remote controlled to form an integrated fire-fighting system.
