Automatic on off fire sprinkler

A fire sprinkler comprising:

• a body having a first end for connection to a water supply, the water supply exerting a pressure on the first end of the body, the body having a passage extending from the first end to a second end, the passage having a first end and a second end corresponding to the first end and the second end of the body, the passage having one of a sealing material or a sealing surface at the first end of the body;
• an actuator disposed in the passage, the actuator having a first end and a second end corresponding to the first end and the second end of the body, the first end of the actuator having an other of the sealing material or the sealing surface, the first end of the passage and the first end of the actuator configuring a water-tight seal;
• a water spreader in fluid communication with the second end of the passage, the water spreader being configured to direct water radially outward from the body;
• and
• a wax motor operatively connected to the second end of the actuator, the wax motor comprising a wax material being actuated by an ambient temperature greater than a predetermined threshold temperature such that actuation of the wax motor, at least indirectly, exerts an actuation force on the second end of the actuator to move the actuator in a first direction to unseal the first end of the actuator from the first end of the passage and open fluid communication between the water supply and the water spreader;
• wherein the second end of the actuator is in engagement with the wax material of the wax motor;
• the actuator is arranged such that the pressure from the water supply tends to move the actuator in a second direction opposite to the first direction to seal the first end of the actuator and the first end of the passage when the ambient temperature falls below the predetermined threshold temperature;
• the actuator and the wax motor are coincidently arranged along a central longitudinal axis of the body such that the actuator and the wax motor are axially aligned;
• and
• the body includes a first portion having the first end of the body and a second portion having an open area to an outside of the body between the first portion and the second end of the body.
