Description
Ventilation-duct fire damper and method
FIELD OF INVENTION
The invention relates to a fire damper of a ventilation duct according to the preamble of claim 1.
The invention also relates to a method according to the preamble of claim 7.
PRIOR ART
Fire dampers are usually located in a ventilation duct between two different fire compartments. Fire dampers aim at preventing fire from spreading from one fire compartment to another fire compartment.
Patent FI55767 describes a fire damper to be connected to a supply or exhaust air duct of a ventilation installation. The fire damper has an operation which forces a valve regulating element to close the valve in the event of fire in a flow duct. The valve comprises a conical collar and a conical disc fitted in the conical collar. Between the conical collar and the conical disc is formed a flow duct the cross- sectional area of which can be adjusted by moving the disc in relation to the collar in the axial direction. The disc has a threaded hole in which is fitted a first end of a threaded stem. The second end of the threaded stem is connected to a bail the ends of which are fastened in the conical collar. Within the disc is arranged a trigger and closing mechanism of the fire damper which in the event of fire performs an automatic quick-closing of the disc against the conical collar. Via the bail, the valve can be fastened in a frame by rotating. The frame comprises a cylindrical section to be installed in the supply or exhaust air duct and an outer flange which comes directly against a wall surface. It is possible to use a fire
insulating seal between the outer flange of the frame coming against the wall surface and the conical collar of the valve.
Patent EP 1095672 also describes a fire damper of a ventilation installation. The principal structures of the valve and the frame are here equivalent to the ones of the valve and frame of the above patent FI55767. The valve is fastened to the frame via an annular piece of heat-resistant material, being castable. Said annular piece forms the only mechanical connection between the conical collar of the valve and the frame surrounding it.
SUMMARY OF INVENTION
The aim of the arrangement according to the invention is to minimise disadvantages related to prior-art arrangements or to eliminate them totally.
The principal characteristics of a fire damper of a ventilation duct according to the invention are presented in the characterising part of claim 1.
The principal characteristics of a method according to the invention are presented in the characterising part of claim 7.
Other characteristics of the invention are presented in the dependent claims.
The fire damper according to the invention comprises a frame extending through a hole in a wall structure installable at the end of a ventilation duct and a valve installable in the frame. The frame comprises a substantially cylindrical inner section and a substantially flange-shaped outer section. The valve comprises a closing cone and a counter cone between which is formed a flow duct and a trigger mechanism with which the closing cone is triggered against the counter cone for closing the flow duct in the event of fire. The counter cone has a conical inner section and a split annular outer section. The fire damper utilises two fire
insulating seals. The first fire insulating seal is located between the outer section of the counter cone of the valve and the outer section of the frame. The second fire insulating seal is located between the outer section of the frame and the outer surface surrounding the hole in the wall structure and the end of the ventilation duct.
The fire damper according to the invention is inexpensive and simple to manufacture as well as easy to install and maintain. The use of elastic, heat- resistant fire insulating seals to seal leakages is a simple and cost-effective way to prevent fire from spreading via the fire damper to other spaces.
The arrangement according to the invention is applicable to all wall structures.
The use of the second fire insulating seal between the outer section of the frame and the outer surface surrounding the hole in the wall structure and the end of the ventilation duct protects the outer surface of the wall surrounding the hole in the wall structure from chipping. For instance, the surface of a plasterboard is easily chipped when the outer section of the frame in time rubs against the plasterboard.
Then, a leakage can be created between the frame and the plasterboard, due to which the fire damper will not form a fire blockage as tight as required.
The invention will now be described with reference to the figures of the accompanying drawings.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF FIGURES
Fig. 1 shows a schematic view of a fire damper of a ventilation duct according to the invention.
Fig. 2 shows a trigger mechanism applicable to the fire damper according to Fig. 1 in its excited state.
Fig. 3 shows the trigger mechanism of Fig. 2 as triggered.
DESCRIPTION OF ADVANTAGEOUS EMBODIMENTS
Fig. 1 shows a schematic view of a fire damper of a ventilation duct according to the invention.
The fire damper consists of a frame 10 which in connected to a ventilation duct 30 extending through a hole 40a in a wall structure 40 and of a valve 20 connected to the frame .10. The valve 20 comprises a closing cone 21, a counter cone 22, a bail 23 which is fixedly connected to the counter cone 22 in a connection point A, and a stem 24 with which the closing cone 21 is movably connected to the bail 23.
The frame 10 of the fire damper comprises a substantially cylindrical inner section 10a and a substantially flange-shaped outer section 10b which has an inner surface and an outer surface. The inner section 10a of the frame 10 sets against the inner surface of the ventilation duct 30 and the outer section 10b of the frame sets against an outer surface 40b surrounding the hole 40a in the wall structure 40 and the end of the duct 30. The wall structure 40 here comprises an outer panel 41 and an inner panel 42 and an insulating layer 43 between them. The frame 10 is fastened of its inner section 10a in the duct 30 with fastening means 70, e.g. screws.
The counter cone 22 of the valve 20 of the fire damper consists of a truncated conical inner section 22a and a split annular outer section 22b. The inner section 22a sets in the ventilation duct 30 and the outer section sets against the side surface 40b surrounding the hole 40a in the wall structure 40. Between the closing cone 21 and the counter cone 22 is formed a conical flow duct 26 from which air can enter the ventilation duct 30 or exit it. The stem 24 advantageously consists of a threaded tap, whereby the closing cone 21 includes a nut 25 in which the
threaded tap 24 sets. The closing cone 21 is thus movable in the axial direction S in relation to the counter cone 22, whereby the area of the duct 26 between the closing cone 21 and the counter cone 22 is adjustable.
Between the outer section 22b of the counter cone 22 and the outer surface of the outer section 10b of the frame 10, there is a first fire insulating seal 50. Between the inner surface of the outer section 10b of the frame 10 and the side surface 40b surrounding the hole 40a in the wall structure 40 and the end of the duct 30, there is a second fire insulating seal 51. These seals 50, 51 are located in the axial direction S opposite each other on both sides of the outer section 10b of the frame 10. Both fire insulating seals 50, 51 consist of an elastic material resistant to high temperatures, an example of which is the insulating material marketed with trademark Kerafix 2000 owned by a company called Trader-Koo Oy. The wall lead-in of the ventilation duct 30 is also sealed properly against the spreading of fire.
The valve 20 can be fastened in the frame 10 by rotating such that slightly outwards deflected ends 23 a of the bail 23 set against stoppers 10c in the inner section 10a of the frame 10. The stoppers 10c are advantageously designed such that rotating the valve 20 to the frame 10 simultaneously presses down the first fire insulating seal 50 within the outer section 22b of the counter cone 22 tightly against the outer section 10a of the frame 10. The valve 20 thus supports itself to the frame 10 via two support locations at a distance from each other in the axial direction S. The first support location is formed of two support points between the ends 23a of the bail 23 and the inner section 10a of the frame. The second support location is formed via a circular support point formed by the first fire insulating seal 50 between the outer section 22b of the counter cone 22 and the outer section 10b of the frame 10.
Fig. 2 shows a trigger mechanism applicable to the fire damper according to Fig. 1 in its excited state, and Fig. 3 shows the trigger mechanism as triggered. This
trigger mechanism is known as such from the above patent FI55767. The trigger mechanism 60 comprises a diaphragm spring 61 installed around the threaded tap 24, which supports itself of its one end to the end of the threaded tap 24 in a washer 62 fastened e.g. with a pin and of its other end on the inner surface of a bottom 21a of the closing cone 21. The trigger mechanism 60 also comprises a flange 63 fastened onto the outer surface of the bottom 21a of the closing cone 21 e.g. with rivets 65, which includes a formed part 64 closing the nut 25 within itself. The nut 25 is fastened in the formed part 64 of the flange 63 with a solder joint 66 which forms a fuse melting in a specific temperature. In the situation of Fig. 2, the diaphragm spring 61 is pressed down and ready to trigger the fire damper as soon as the fuse 66 has melted.
In the event of fire and temperature rising in the flow duct 26 to a temperature which melts the fuse 66, the locking between the nut 25 and the formed part 64 of the flange 63 is released, whereby the spring 61 forces the freely-movable closing cone 21 to close the flow duct 26 totally, as shown in Fig. 3.
Figs. 2 and 3 show a trigger mechanism applicable to the fire damper according to the invention but, from the viewpoint of the invention, it is possible to use any trigger mechanism known by those skilled in the art.
Above was described an advantageous embodiment of the fire damper according to the invention, to which the invention is not intended to be solely limited.
