Abstract:
A networked visual and audible alarm apparatus and method of synchronized alerting provides audible and visual alerts upon detection of events, such as smoke, carbon monoxide and gas. The apparatus adapts to a light bulb socket to provide normal lighting when no event is detected. The apparatuses are systematically disposed through different sections of a structure. Each apparatus independently emits an audible signal, dependent on the type of event detected in the respective section for the apparatus. Further, each alarm apparatus provides a colored high strobe light that illuminates at a color and intensity that varies, dependent on the type of event detected in the section of the alarm apparatus. A microphone enables the alarm apparatus to initiate the audible signal and the high strobe light upon detecting an audible signal from an adjacent alarm apparatus. Also, voice commands can be used to power off the alarming apparatus.
Abstract:
A fire detection system has a system controller (160) with a digital processor and a wireless interface for communicating in a local area within a building (156, 155), and at least one drone (150-152) having a body and at least one rotor (3), a controller, and a wireless interface for communicating with said system controller. Fire sensors (4, 5) are mounted on the drone, and it flies on a flight path within the building and to send fire alert data to the system controller upon sensing of a fire condition by said sensor. At least one smoke sensor (4) is located on a rotor axis on the upstream so that rising smoke (S) is drawn back downwardly past the smoke sensor. The flight path of a drone may be chosen for optimum detection, such as for validation of a fire event if potential incipient fire stage is detected.
Abstract:
An embodiment of a flame detector coverage verification system includes an optical source for generating a light beam, and a control unit configured to point the beam in a direction generally co-aligned with an optical center line of the flame detector and through a range of movement about the direction to visually demarcate an area that falls within the flame detector's field of view. In one embodiment, the control unit includes a movable mirror to deflect the laser beam. The system may include an indicator device configured to determine and visually indicate a pan direction of the detector optical center line with respect to a defined direction, and a declination indicator configured to determine and visually display the tilt angle (angle of declination) of the detector optical center line with respect to a ground plane. Another embodiment of a flame detector coverage verification system includes an optical source for generating a light beam, and a light-path control unit connected to the optical source and configured to direct the beam through a range of movements about a center line direction of the flame detector to visually demarcate an area that falls within the flame detector's field of view. An indicator device configured to visually indicate a pan direction of the detector optical center line. A tilt indicator is configured to determine and visually display the tilt angle of the detector with respect to a ground plane. A hub structure temporarily attaches the control unit to the flame detector, the control unit pivotally connected to the hub structure so that the optical source light beam is oriented perpendicular to a ground plane.

Abstract:
Disclosed is an interconnected smoke detector system of one or more smoke detector(s) wired into a dedicated circuit with a single location housing a DC power backup source, such as a rechargeable DC battery. The DC power backup source may be replaceable or rechargeable with DC current from and AC-DC transformer, a photovoltaic cell, or other means. Electronic relays within the system provide a current to the dedicated circuit by selecting between the line-voltage alternating current source and the DC power backup.
