A fire extinguishing assistance system and a method for assisting in extinguishing an ongoing or imminent fire in a modular vehicle

摘要

A fire extinguishing assistance system (10), arranged in a modular vehicle (1), for assisting e.g. a fire extinguishing vehicle (400) in extinguishing an ongoing or imminent fire in the modular vehicle (1). The modular vehicle (1) comprises at least one drive module (30) and a functional module (40) that are releasably connected. The extinguishing assistance system (10) comprises a plurality of ports (11, 12, 13) accessible from the outside of the modular vehicle (1); wherein each port (11, 12, 13) is configured for receiving a fire extinguishing agent from e.g. the fire extinguishing vehicle (400). The system (10) also comprises an individual manifold (61, 62, 63) connected to each port (11, 12, 13), wherein each individual manifold (61, 62, 63) is arranged to guide the fire extinguishing agent received via the port (11, 12, 13) and further to at least one nozzle (71) directed in the inside of the modular vehicle (1). The system (10) further comprises a control device (200, 300) configured to detect an ongoing or imminent fire in the vehicle (1), and configure at least one of the plurality of ports (11, 12, 13) selected for receiving a fire extinguishing agent to the ongoing or imminent fire, to assist in suppressing the fire
