Vehicle fire fighting system, for commercial vehicles, has computer control using temperature sensors to detect overheating and extinguishers with shock initiation and radio alarm system

摘要

A vehicle fire fighting system has temperature sensors (31 - 34) monitoring the drive systems including engine, axles (41, 43), wheels (41R - 43R), brakes (41F - 43F) and with central controller (11) using a correspondence table (65) in status memory (60) to control extinguishers (20 - 23) through time delay units (19). Includes Independent claims for shock detectors to initiate fire suppression and a radio alarm system linked to a central monitoring station through a radio data or radio telephone system.
