US Patent:

20150297924, Oct 22, 2015
Filed:

Oct 14, 2011
Appl. No.:

14/351206
Inventors:

May L. Corn - Manchester CT, US
Guido Poncia - Glastonbury CT, US
Enrico Manes - Feeding Hills MA, US
Jeffrey M. Cohen - Hebron CT, US
Michael R. Carey - East Hampton CT, US
Joshua A. Sheffel - Manchester CT, US
Assignee:

UTC Fire & Security Corporation - Farmington CT
International Classification:

A62C 5/00
A62C 35/68
B05B 7/04
Abstract:

An exemplary sprinkler system includes a liquid supply conduit and a gas supply conduit. A mixing device is coupled to the liquid supply conduit and the gas supply conduit. The mixing device is configured to establish a mixture of liquid from the liquid supply conduit and gas from the gas supply conduit. The mixture has a selected gas-to-liquid ratio. A sprinkler supply conduit is coupled with the mixing device for carrying the mixture downstream from the mixing device. A sprinkler coupled with the sprinkler supply conduit is configured to receive the mixture and to discharge a fire suppression mist.

Filed:

Jun 22, 2011
Appl. No.:

14/128157
Inventors:

May L. Corn - Manchester CT, US
Michael R. Carey - East Hampton CT, US
Jeffrey M. Cohen - Hebron CT, US
Bryan Robert Siewert - Clinton CT, US
Thierry Carriere - Littleton CO, US
Joshua A. Sheffel - Manchester CT, US
International Classification:

A62C 35/68
US Classification:

169 14
Abstract:

An exemplary fire suppression system includes a nozzle body configured to carry a fire suppressing fluid to be discharged from a first orifice array and a second orifice array. Gas bubbles can be introduced through a bubbler into the fire suppressing fluid to establish a bubbly mixture in the nozzle. Each first orifice in the first orifice array has a first flow property and is configured to receive the bubbly mixture and through effervescent atomization yield a first fire suppression mist from the first orifice array. Each second orifice in the second orifice array has a second different flow property and is configured to receive the bubbly mixture and through effervescent atomization yield a second fire suppression mist from the second orifice array. The first fire suppression mist and the second fire suppression mist are configured to provide a selected fire suppression nozzle discharge.
