Abstract
The present invention features a portable, modular on-site breathable fire control system which can make an unlimited amount of cooled, oxygen-depleted air that can still be consumed by humans while extinguishing fire and reducing smoke. This system may be incorporated into an already existing heating and A/C unit for enhanced fire safety in a home or building. The system may also be used as a mobile unit attached to a fire safety vehicle wherein a transmission conduit transfers the processed air directly to the area on fire. Additionally, a fire-resistant tarp-like structure of sufficient size may be used to enclose a burning structure while the process air is transmitted thereto via a transmission conduit.
Claims19
A portable, breathable fire control system for extinguishing flames and reducing smoke in a burning structure, said system comprising:
- a) a housing, said housing adapted to receive external, unprocessed air from the atmosphere, said housing having contained therein
- 1) an input fan
- 2) a gas combustion chamber operably connected to said input fan for receiving said external unprocessed air,
- 3) a series of radiators coupled to said combustion chamber,
- 4) an output fan for disposing cooled, oxygen-reduced air out of the system to extinguish flames and reduce smoke,
- b) gas tank means for containing flammable fuel, said gas tank means having fuel transmission means connected thereto and coupled to said gas combustion chamber, for transmitting fuel from said tank to said gas combustion chamber,
- c) fluid cooling means for circulating cooled fluid through said series of radiators to significantly lower air temperature of said oxygen-reduced air.
