Abstract
Disclosed are a fire detection apparatus and an operating method thereof. The present invention relates to a fire detection apparatus and an operating method thereof, which can detect a fire which occurs in an indoor space by using multiple sensors such as a temperature sensor and a smoke sensor.
Claims11
A fire detection apparatus including a temperature fuse designed to be disconnected when a temperature exceeds a predetermined reference temperature, a temperature sensor detecting the temperature and generating a temperature measurement value, a first smoke sensor detecting a smoke and generating a notification signal when a current smoke concentration exceeds a predetermined smoke concentration threshold, and a second smoke sensor detecting the smoke and generating the smoke concentration measurement value, the fire detection apparatus comprising:
- a notification event generating unit generating a fire occurrence notification event for notifying a fire occurrence fact when it is confirmed that the disconnection of the temperature fuse is detected or the notification signal is generated through the first smoke sensor;
- a first output unit outputting a first indication signal for announcing a fire warning through a signal indicator previously provided in the fire detection apparatus when the fire occurrence notification event is generated;
- and
- a composite transmission unit collecting a first temperature measurement value currently measured through the temperature sensor and a first smoke concentration measurement value currently measured through the second smoke sensor, generating a fire occurrence warning message for warning that the fire occurs, and then transmitting the first temperature measurement value, the first smoke concentration measurement value, and the fire occurrence warning message to a predetermined control system connected to the fire detection apparatus through a network, when the first indication signal is output through the signal indicator.
An operating method of a fire detection apparatus including a temperature fuse designed to be disconnected when a temperature exceeds a predetermined reference temperature, a temperature sensor detecting the temperature and generating a temperature measurement value, a first smoke sensor detecting a smoke and generating a notification signal when a current smoke concentration exceeds a predetermined smoke concentration threshold, and a second smoke sensor detecting the smoke and generating the smoke concentration measurement value, the operating method comprising:
- generating a fire occurrence notification event for notifying a fire occurrence fact when it is confirmed that the disconnection of the temperature fuse is detected or the notification signal is generated through the first smoke sensor;
- outputting a first indication signal for announcing a fire warning through a signal indicator previously provided in the fire detection apparatus when the fire occurrence notification event is generated;
- and
- collecting a first temperature measurement value currently measured through the temperature sensor and a first smoke concentration measurement value currently measured through the second smoke sensor, generating a fire occurrence warning message for warning that the fire occurs, and then transmitting the first temperature measurement value, the first smoke concentration measurement value, and the fire occurrence warning message to a predetermined control system connected to the fire detection apparatus through a network, when the first indication signal is output through the signal indicator.
A non-transitory computer readable recording medium having a program recorded therein for allowing a computer to execute an operating method of a fire detection apparatus including a temperature fuse designed to be disconnected when a temperature exceeds a predetermined reference temperature, a temperature sensor detecting the temperature and generating a temperature measurement value, a first smoke sensor detecting a smoke and generating a notification signal when a current smoke concentration exceeds a predetermined smoke concentration threshold, and a second smoke sensor detecting the smoke and generating the smoke concentration measurement value, the operating method comprising:
- generating a fire occurrence notification event for notifying a fire occurrence fact when it is confirmed that the disconnection of the temperature fuse is detected or the notification signal is generated through the first smoke sensor;
- outputting a first indication signal for announcing a fire warning through a signal indicator previously provided in the fire detection apparatus when the fire occurrence notification event is generated;
- and
- collecting a first temperature measurement value currently measured through the temperature sensor and a first smoke concentration measurement value currently measured through the second smoke sensor, generating a fire occurrence warning message for warning that the fire occurs, and then transmitting the first temperature measurement value, the first smoke concentration measurement value, and the fire occurrence warning message to a predetermined control system connected to the fire detection apparatus through a network, when the first indication signal is output through the signal indicator.
