COOPERATIVE FIRE EXTINGUISHING SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240189637 titled 'COOPERATIVE FIRE EXTINGUISHING SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a fire extinguishing system for vehicles that enables cooperative control between a vehicle on fire and surrounding vehicles to extinguish the fire effectively.

  • The system includes a fire detector in the vehicle, a controller to transmit fire occurrence information to surrounding vehicles, and a control process for fire extinguishment.
  • Surrounding vehicles receive the information, determine whether to participate in fire extinguishment, and supply fire extinguishing water to the vehicle on fire.
  • A tank in the surrounding vehicle stores the fire extinguishing water for supply to the vehicle on fire.

Key Features and Innovation

  • Fire extinguishing system for vehicles with cooperative control between vehicles.
  • Fire detector to detect fires in vehicles.
  • Communication between vehicles for sharing fire occurrence information.
  • Determination of participation in fire extinguishment by surrounding vehicles.
  • Supply of fire extinguishing water from surrounding vehicles to the vehicle on fire.

Potential Applications

The technology can be applied in various types of vehicles, including cars, trucks, and buses, to enhance fire safety measures.

Problems Solved

The system addresses the challenge of effectively extinguishing fires in vehicles by enabling coordinated efforts between the vehicle on fire and surrounding vehicles.

Benefits

  • Improved fire safety in vehicles.
  • Efficient and coordinated fire extinguishment process.
  • Enhanced protection for passengers and property in case of a fire.

Commercial Applications

Title: Vehicle Fire Extinguishing System for Enhanced Safety and Efficiency The technology can be utilized in the automotive industry, public transportation sector, and emergency response vehicles to enhance fire safety measures and protect lives and assets.

Prior Art
