Abstract
A fire suppression apparatus for fighting fires from a vehicle configured for flight is disclosed, comprising a foam and water held in separate containers aboard the vehicle that when mixed forms a fire retardant, a pump driven by an electric motor to pressurize the fire retardant, the pump including an air induction valve where air is drawn into a suction end of the pump and pressurized together with the fire retardant, and an aimable boom connected to the pump by a conduit, the boom including a nozzle on a distal end of the boom from which the pressurized fire retardant and air is dispensed toward a target.
Claims (23)
1. A fire suppression apparatus for fighting fires from a helicopter, comprising:
a water tank for housing water, the water tank configured for attachment to the helicopter;
a foam tank for housing a foam, the foam tank housed inside the water tank, wherein the water tank is configured to receive the foam from the foam tank that when mixed with the water in the water tank forms a batch of a liquid fire retardant in the water tank, and
a centrifugal pump supportable by the helicopter, the pump including a radial outflow impeller and driven by an electric motor, the pump including an air induction valve with an electrically variable valve opening disposed at and connected to a suction end of the pump so as to form an air inlet, wherein air and the fire retardant are drawn into the suction end and pressurized by the pump for discharge toward a target.
2. The fire suppression apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the foam tank is defined by a bladder for housing the foam and the bladder is inside the water tank.
3. The fire suppression apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the water tank is replenishable with water.
4. The fire suppression apparatus of claim 2 , comprising a retractable pump system to replenish the water tank with water, the retractable pump system including a collapsible hose connected on a first end to a reversible, motorized reel for deploying and retrieving the hose, and a submersible water pump positioned on a second end of the hose for pumping water from a water source to the water tank.
5. The fire suppression apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the foam tank is replenishable with foam.
6. The fire suppression apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the foam when housed in the foam tank is a foam concentrate.
7. The fire suppression apparatus of claim 1 , including an aimable boom supportable by the helicopter, the aimable boom including a nozzle configured to expel the pressurized air and fire retardant toward the target.
8. The fire suppression apparatus of claim 7 , wherein a foam to water ratio of the fire retardant introduced to the boom is the same foam to water ratio of the fire retardant leaving the water tank.
9. The fire suppression apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the boom is configured to extend at least one meter beyond an outer tip of a rotor of the helicopter.
10. The fire suppression apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the boom is supported by the water tank opposite the pump and electric motor to counterbalance the pump and electric motor.
11. The fire suppression apparatus of claim 1 , including a foam pump configured to pump foam from the foam tank to the water tank.
12. The fire suppression apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the centrifugal pump is supported on a flat upper surface of a base, and the base is cantileverly mounted to the water tank via a pair of brackets.
13. The fire suppression apparatus of claim 12 , wherein at least one of the brackets includes a surface defining a plurality of recesses for reducing weight of the at least one of the brackets.
14. The fire suppression apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the centrifugal pump is configured to rotate at a rated speed of approximately 9400 rotations per minute.
15. The fire suppression apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the centrifugal pump has an axial inlet.
16. The fire suppression apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the air reaching the centrifugal pump via the air induction valve does not pass through an air compressor.
17. The fire suppression apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the electrically variable valve opening of the air induction valve receives unpressurized ambient air.
18. The fire suppression apparatus of claim 1 , including one or more electronic controllers in operative communication with the electric motor and the air induction valve, wherein the one or more electronic controllers are configured to automatically open the air induction valve upon activation of the centrifugal pump.
19. The fire suppression apparatus of claim 1 , wherein each of the foam tank and the water tank have an interior volume for holding fluid and the interior volume of the foam tank is five to ten percent of the interior volume of the water tank.
20. The fire suppression apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the water tank includes an anti-cavitation device mounted inside the water tank at a lowest point of the water tank.
