Fire detection system
TECHNICAL FIELD
The invention relates to a fire detection system, and particularly, but not limited to, use with a
kitchen rangehood extractor system.
BACKGROUND ART
The majority of fires starting in the kitchen originate at the cooking t (or hob), according
to recent tical information ble in New Zealand.
Such fires typically begin from ignition of cooking oils during the g process, rtent
placement of tea towels on a hot element, or from ts/ovens accidentally being left on
which then can result in food eventually combusting. The ty of these fires are caused
when the cooking station has been left unattended.
In order to circumvent such fires with often disastrous consequences, rangehoods with built in
fire suppression systems have been developed. These are intended to control the fire at the
source well before the fire has had a chance to spread and be identified through distantly
located smoke/fire detectors. Often by this stage the fire has grown out of control.
For example, many commercial kitchens have been custom built with self extinguishing
rangehoods. They operate using glass fuses which are set to melt at a specific temperature,
releasing mechanical rubber belts and springs which then ultimately remove a pin from a fire
extinguisher to e the suppressant therein. Such systems have also been retrofitted to
residential oods. However, due to the mechanical nature of such systems they can be a
also to maintain, replace or repair.
very expensive process not only to set up, but
In other cases, hanging fire uishers have been developed to be used with rangehoods.
Such devices are small cans with a loop at the top for hanging the can from the rangehood.
The bottom of the can is mechanically ed so that in the event of a fire, the base of the
can drops away, releasing suppressant which is stored inside.
A further system described in US 5,335,026 is a fire suppression system whereby increased
heat from a fire results in melting of an insulator material which is present around two twisted
wires, resulting in a short-circuit condition being ed. This event can result in an alarm
being sounded as well as increased voltage across the actuator to the effect that the actuator
cuts a tension wire leading to fire suppression fluid being released on to the fire.
However, there are considerable disadvantages to the systems discussed above.
James & Wells ref: /76
y, they all rely y on mechanical devices to initiate a response. Such activation
through devices such as rubber belts has a tendency to loose their iveness, especially in
the kitchen environment. rly, springs are known to loose their recoil ability when held
under tension for long periods.
These disadvantages result in lower trust from the user, potential lower reliability and higher
maintenance requirements to ensure safety.
A further disadvantage of such systems is that due to faulty parts or inaccurate readings, false
alarms or release of suppressant may eventuate when not ed, not required or not
necessary. This is generally enient as it requires replacement and maintenance of parts,
well as
as well as potentially damage to the stove top, cooking appliances such as pots, as
spoiling the food potentially being prepared at the time of the incident.
rmore, it can be ult to detect fires within a rangehood because steam can trigger
most fire detectors in a domestic kitchen environment.
It is an object of the present invention to address the foregoing problems or at least to provide
the public with a useful choice.

ADVANTAGES OF THE PRESENT INVENTm
- Avoids the need to constantly measure for smoke in an area that often will present
smoke but potentially without the risk for fire.
- If a temperature threshold is d that indicates a potential for fire, the smoke
detector is then only activated to confirm presence of fire or potential for fire. Therefore,
alarm activation and/or deterrent effect may only be ted if and when a serious threat
of fire is present.
- Lower requirement for smoke detector activation means higher quality smoke ors
1o (e.g. laser detectors) are practical to use. Otherwise, continual use of such detectors
would be costly and/or may soon break down.
- An signal output (or ion”) indicating a) no fire, b) fire, or 0) potential for fire from the
smoke or may be significantly more accurate (illustrating a synergistic effect) than
just one type of sensor. This is because the “decision” on a fire being present has
passed criteria for both temperature and smoke indicative of a fair.
- Downstream s (as discussed hout the specification) therefore present a
plethora of advantages over known systems.
- For example, one can avoid:
0 false alarms more often,
o faulty smoke detectors due to overuse,
o unnecessary deployment of fire ssant, leading to wasted suppressant,
ruined food and damage to stove, requirement to replace spent canisters or new
systems following false /unnecessary ment.
0 Failure of identifying a true fire.
Further advantages of the present invention will become apparent with the ensuing description
and discussion of the preferred embodiments.
PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
Fire detection system
Throughout the present invention the phrase fire detection system (herein termed FDS) should
be ered any device, apparatus (either singular or multiple) that provides a system to allow
the detection of a fire or potential for fire (e.g. through detection of increased heat and smoke).
James & Wells ref: 133365/76
Preferably, the FDS is in communication with a ood located in the vicinity of a cooking
element. For example, the inventor sees the significant commercial application wherein the
invention forms part of a typical rangehood located directly above a stovetop, where kitchen
fires most often arise. Therefore, ation directly at the source of the fire gives an ed
chance of stopping the fire early, avoiding damage and saving lives.
Throughout the remainder of the specification, reference to the FDS is made particularly in
relation to use in or with a rangehood. However, this should not be considered limiting, as the
present invention is envisaged to have other applications beyond rangehoods, such as in heavy
machinery engine bays, yachts/large vessels that may not have a rangehood but the fire
detection system may be placed in an enclosure above the g area, vans, etc.
Rangehood
Preferably, the ood includes a master control board.
The master l board may include a circuit able to identify a temperature activation point
suggestive of a fire or potential for fire.
For instance, the circuit may be able to take readings to calibrate each rangehood (e.g. during
installation or during a service) to identify normal baseline temperature and therefore calculate a
“moving" activation point (for instance a set temperature above the base line). Therefore, the
invention may be easily ble to ent rangehood models (which may vary on aspects
such as fan strength or dimensions), as well as fluctuations in climate temperatures etc.
Also, fan speed may lead to automatic adjustment of the activation points. Potentially, if the fan
stops working (or is faulty), this could also change the airflow - this, and other variants of
temperature, may be accounted for through ment (manual or automatic) of the activation
point.
Preferably, the master control board is configured to t for fan speed in the rangehood
when setting and/or ing the activation point.
The rangehood may include any one or combination of functions below:
- Fan speed up/ fan speed down controls,
- Multiple speed fan settings
— Lighting
- User display panel
James & Wells ref: 133365/76
- Fire suppressant canisters or suppressant delivery system tially as part of the
FDS). Such canisters may be replaceable. Substantially any fire suppressant may be
used and should not be considered outside the scope of the invention
Preferably, the FDS is configured to integrate into an existing hardwired or wireless fire alarm
system.
This may be advantageous to bring the attention of the fire/potential fire to the appropriate
person/people faster and more effectively. For instance, the FDS may be integrated with an
external communication system, such as the Fire Department or friend’s / relative’s house. This
may be particularly beneficial for the elderly.
The fire detection system may also n a wired or wireless control system allowing the
isolation of either the gas or electrical supply to the cooking device.
Motion sensor
Preferably the FDS includes a motion sensor.
The motion sensor has us applications and works synergistically with the ature
and smoke detectors to provide significant ages.
For example, the motion sensor may be activated upon use of the stovetop, such as turning on
a heating element. In one embodiment, if no movement is observed from the motion sensor
within a given period of time, an alarm may be activated to remind the user that cooking is in
if negligence continues. Such negligence is
progress, and there is a danger of a fire developing
a leading cause of n fires.
The motion sensor may even be configured to issue a command signal to the master control
board to vate the g element if no movement is seen within a given period of time.
The motion sensor has further applications. For example, if no movement is observed within a
given period of time after cooking has begun, the FDS may be configured to activate the smoke
detector without an activation point being reached. This ment could represent a
significant age to help detect and register a fire/potential fire sooner than if just a
temperature sensor is being used to reach the activation point.
Temperature sensor
Preferably, the FDS includes a plurality of ature sensors.
Most preferably there are three temperature sensors spaced apart in the underside of a
rangehood. In an alternative embodiment, the temperature sensors are incorporated into the
splashback.
James & Wells ref: 133365/76
The inventors envisage the temperature sensor may be a positive temperature coefficient (PTC)
thermistor or negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor.
The PTC/NTC may be preferable due to their low cost, high bility and reasonable
accuracy.
For example, the temperature sensors may be configured to detect temperatures as follows:
a) primary sensor to detect temperature above 40°C;
b) secondary sensor to detect temperature above 65°C; and
c) ry sensor to detect temperature above 100°C.
In such an embodiment, the primary sensor may be sufficient to detect that the stovetop is in

this embodiment are possible and should not be considered outside the scope of the invention.
The atures exemplified above are merely for examples, and could be adjusted to
substantially any temperature, as discussed below.
Such variations may be due to differences in setup. For example, one rangehood may be
located opposite a large window with full sun all day long and another may be in a cool part of
the house. This may result in temperature readings to vary on every install.

For example, the inventors have observed that the ork inside and near the main
the rangehood may warm to approximately 65-75°C when a fire is present. However, this
change in temperature is dependent on the fan speed, and ially many other variables.
The tertiary sensor may be used to determine significant risk of fire and, potentially in
combination with verification from the smoke detector once activated, send a signal to the
master control board resulting in a command signal to lead to dispersion of a suppressant on
a fire (discussed in more detail below).
Furthermore, the temperature sensors may be configured to measure certain components of
rangehood structure opposed to the air ling through the rangehood.

As discussed above, the inventors ge the temperature sensors may be configured to
into account such variables such as ound temperature, size/configuration of the
James & Wells ref: 133365/76
rangehood, sensor position and the airflow cooling effect provided from the fan in the
rangehood.
In another embodiment. readings from multiple temperature sensors may improve accuracy of
the readings by providing an average. An average can ent a more accurate reflection on
whether a fire is present or imminent. The average temperature reading may be used to initiate
an activation of the smoke or instead of a single temperature sensor.
Activation point
The inventors envisage that once the tion point of the temperature sensor(s) has been
reached, the FDS may be configured to send a signal to the master control board, which then
results in a command signal to activate the smoke detector.
As discussed above, the activation point may be ent on numerous variables. The
activation point may be fixed, adjustable, or be constantly changing dependent on key inputs
from the surrounding environment (e.g. room temperature) or FDS (e.g. fan speed).
The tion point may be an e of multiple temperature sensors. Alternatively, it may
be a temperature of just one specific temperature sensor, for instance the secondary
temperature sensor.
Smoke or
Preferably, smoke detector is a high quality smoke detector. For example, a smoke detector
employing a laser may be well suited to the present invention. Of course, other smoke or
types such as traditional ionization or photoelectric styles may be used. The present invention
should not be limited to the type of smoke detector used.
One advantage of the present ion is that e the smoke detector is not required to be
continuously activated, a higher quality detector may be used to increase sensitivity and
accuracy without significant concern about overuse etc.
Once the smoke detector has been activated, different ments of the present invention
are envisioned by the inventors.
Preferably, if the smoke detector detects smoke the FDS may include any one or combination of
the ing functions (in any order):
a) warn audibly h an alarm; or

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
Further aspects of the present invention will become apparent from the ensuing description
which is given by way of example only and with reference to the accompanying drawings in
which:
Figure 1 shows a schematic representation of the F08 integrated into a rangehood;
BEST MODES FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
As rated in the schematic representation in Figure 1, the fire detection system (FDS) is to
be integrated into the underside of a rangehood (not shown). Typically the rangehood (2) will
be placed above a cooking element such as on a conventional oven (not .
1O The rangehood (2) includes a main control board (4) with a circuit board (not shown). The main
control board (4) is configured to receive signals from ent elements of the FDS, and then
issue command signals to result in the appropriate action being taken, as sed further
below.
The rangehood (2) includes, as part of the FDS, three PCT/NTC thermistor temperature
sensors (3 A-C) which are spaced apart. A primary sensor (3 -A) is ured to detect
temperatures above 40°C, a secondary sensor (3 -B) is configured to detect atures
above 65°C, and a third sensor (3 -C) is configured to detect temperatures above 100°C.
When a temperature sensor (3) detects a temperature at or above the “activation point” it sends
a signal to the main control board (4).
A signal ation point being reached) from primary sensor (3-A) results in the main control
board (4) sending a command signal to a motion sensor (5) to activate. This indicates the
cooking element is in use.
The motion sensor (5) will then scan for movement. If no movement is fied within two
minutes, an audible alarm will issue to remind the user that the cooking element is in use to
avoid fires from beginning. This will continue until movement is again seen.
In one embodiment, if the motion sensor (5) identifies no movement within a five minute period,
it will automatically bypass the activation point of from the secondary sensor (3-B) to result in
the smoke or (6) activating to detect the presence of smoke.
A signal (activation point of 180°C being reached) from the secondary sensor (3-B) results in
the main l board (4) sending a command signal to result in the smoke detector (6) to
activate to detect the presence of smoke.
If smoke is detected by the smoke detector (6), an alarm will sound to alert the user (and/or
third party) that there is a fire or potential for fire.
James & Wells ref: 133365/76
A signal (activation point of 200°C being reached) from the tertiary sensor (3-0) will result in the
main l board (4) sending a command signal to result in release of suppressant from a
canister (not shown) on to the fire.
Signals from either the smoke detector or temperature (s) may also result in any one of
the following actions olled through the main control board):
a) Re-activate motion sensor (5) to detect presence of the user addressing the fire; or
b) Stopping the rangehood fan (if operating) to prevent excess oxygen flow to the potential
fire; or
c) Dispensing of suppressant (which could be halted due to manual override by user or as
a result of movement detected by motion sensor (5); or
d) Turning off the cooking elementjoven.
The activation points of the temperature sensors (3 A-C) are able to be calibrated at any time to
allow them to account for alterations in variables such as differences in rangehood models,
base line temperature, fan speed, filter efficiency etc. These are software functions which
someone skilled in the art would understand how to ent. Furthermore, the activation
points are configured to be automatically adjusted due to variations over the short term period,
such as when a user adjusts the fan speed.
The FDS of the present invention may be retrofitted into a ood (2) or built in during
manufacturing.
Aspects of the present invention have been described by way of e only and it should be
appreciated that modifications and ons may be made thereto without departing from the
scope f as defined in the appended claims.
