Abstract: A fire extinguishing or fire prevention device comprises an extinguishing agent conduit arrangement. The extinguishing agent conduit arrangement comprises a plurality of longitudinal conduit elements each adapted to conduct a fire extinguishing agent therethrough, and a plurality of transverse conduit elements each adapted to conduct a fire extinguishing agent therethrough. Each of the longitudinal conduit elements is connected to one of the transverse conduit elements by at least one connecting element, the connecting elements each being suitable for further conducting the fire extinguishing agent from a longitudinal conduit element into a transverse conduit element or from a transverse conduit element into a longitudinal conduit element. Further, the fire extinguishing or fire prevention device comprises at least one extinguishing agent supply line; which is arranged at the extinguishing agent conduit arrangement and adapted to provide the fire extinguishing agent into at least one of the longitudinal conduit elements or the transverse conduit elements. Further, the fire extinguishing or fire prevention device comprises a plurality of outlets disposed on the extinguishing agent conduit arrangement and adapted to discharge the fire extinguishing agent from the extinguishing agent conduit arrangement. At least one flight-capable carrier device is disposed on the extinguishing agent conduit arrangement and adapted to lift and at least temporarily keep the extinguishing agent conduit arrangement with the outlets and at least a part of the fire extinguishing agent supply line in a distance from the ground surface. The extinguishing agent supply line of the fire extinguishing or fire prevention device is connected to an extinguishing agent reservoir adapted to provide the fire extinguishing agent to the extinguishing agent conduit arrangement while the extinguishing agent conduit arrangement is lifted or kept by the at least one flight-capable carrier device.

The eductor has an outlet and inlets including a water inlet, a fire suppressant material inlet, and an air inlet. In certain embodiments, the eductor has mixing, rinse, and air purge configurations. In the mixing configuration, the eductor has both: i) a primary water flow path extending from the water inlet, through the outer channel, and into the manifold region, and ii) a fire suppressant flow path extending from the fire suppressant inlet, through the inner channel, and into the manifold region. In the rinse configuration, the eductor has a secondary water flow path extending from the water inlet, through the inner channel, and into the manifold region. In the air purge configuration, the eductor has an air flow path extending from the air inlet, though the inner channel, and into the manifold region.

Abstract: The aircraft fire extinguishing system and method applies to helicopters having suspended or built-in liquid reservoir. The innovation lies on the transformation of the firefighting liquid into artificial rain in the form of an umbrella having diameter approximately equal to the diameter of the helicopter's propeller, with adjustable density and duration. The rain creation mechanism in both cases consists of a hollow propeller with two wings where the liquid is guided hydraulically. The liquid jets through nozzles which are in counterpoised arrangement causing the initial revolution of the hollow propeller. This rotation is accelerated and stabilized from the downstream of the helicopter's propeller. The reservoir is suspended from a helicopter's hook by a stretcher using four chains. The built-in reservoir includes an inclined or retractable metallic pipe which the hollow propeller is adapted through a free rotation mechanism. The hollow propeller is set into motion by means of a pressure pump.

Abstract: An aerial retardant delivery system comprising a retardant tank mountable in the fuselage of an aircraft. The tank includes a pressure opening in fluid communication with the fuselage such that pressure in the fuselage may act on retardant contained in the tank. The tank includes an outlet extending through a sidewall of the aircraft's fuselage, through which retardant may be delivered to a target. The system also includes a discharge gate operative to open and close the outlet. An actuation mechanism is disposed on the exterior of the tank and operatively coupled to the at least one discharge gate. A variable flow controller controls the discharge gate open position in order to provide retardant over a desired area of terrain. A one-way flapper is disposed in the pressure opening and is operative to allow pressure in the fuselage to enter the tank while inhibiting retardant from spilling from the tank.

Abstract: An aerial application dispersal system that comprises an aerial vehicle and an aerial dispersal unit. The aerial dispersal unit provides an insect control substance, a flake auger, and a motor to drive the flake auger for transporting the insect control substance to a dispensing chamber. The aerial dispersal unit also provides a glue substance, a pump, and a motor to drive the pump for transporting the glue substance from a storage container to the dispensing chamber for mixing with the insect control substance. The dispensing chamber is provided with a motor for forcing the insect control substance mixed with the glue substance out an exit portal for disbursement over the designated area. A control box, control switches, global positioning satellite system, and dispersal unit operator interface are also provided for automatically regulating the mixing and dispensing rate of the insect control substance and glue substance in relation to the ground speed of the aerial vehicle for maintaining a constant, uniform disbursement of a bonded substance over a designated area.
