Abstract—With the constantly development of large space, the fire prevention of large space building is also increasingly important, but the traditional fire extinguishing system can not satisfy the requirements of fire extinguishing of interior large space. An intelligent fire extinguishing system of interior large space that using the single chip microcomputer SPCE061A as the main controller was designed. The fire location was detected with two-level flame sensors, and the detecting signal was transmitted to the single chip microcomputer SPCE061A. Two perpendicular stepper motors which was driven by the single chip microcomputer drive the fire extinguishing system rotating to achieve the space location of the fire. The test results shows that the system had low rate of false alarm, and the detection method is also simple and stabel, which can satisfy the requirements of early fire prevention in large space.

find, accurately locate and initiatively spray. So it is suitable for the fire prevention of interior large space [1-2].

INTRODUCTION

With the rapid development of interior large space building, the fire prevention of interior large space building has been more and more important. Because of the structural characters of interior large space, its fire prevention is different from the conventional architecture. Now the main equipments of fire prevention are interior sprinkling system, the fire water monitor, automatic sprinkling system, and so on, however, the spraying direction and area of interior sprinkling system is fixed and scattered, it also hasn’t the function of auto-targeting, so it doesn’t make full use of water and not have the ideal fire fightting results. Fire water monitors of interior large space need to be under the control of the fire person, it takes long time to prepare that it can not put out the fire in time. The structure of the automatic sprinkling system is much more complicated, and the sprinkler need to be replaced in case of the next fire protection tasks. Therefore, they are also unable to meet large space requirements of fire prevention. Aiming at the problems mentioned above, an intelligent fire extinguishing system of interior large space that using the SPCE061A as the main controller was designed; its mechanical structure and the hardware and software of electrical control system were analyzed in detail. This fire extinguishing system could initiatively monitor, automatically

A. Design requirements and parameters (1) Protection height ”10m; (2) Protection Radius ”15m; (3) Spraying flow 5L/s; (4) Working pressure 0.25~0.6MPa;(5) Interface diameter 25mm; (6) Nozzle diameter Ø16mm; (7) Input voltage AC220V; (8) The time of searching fire ”30s; (9) Operating temperature 10oC~55oC. B. Working Principle According to the design requirements, the designed mechanical structure of the fire extinguishing system is shown in Figure 1, and the 3d model of the system is shown in Figure 2. As shown in the two figures, the horizontal auto-targeting system and the vertical auto-targeting system are driven by involute worm wheel and worm and spur-gear. Because of the self-locking performance of involute worm wheel and worm, the system would not be affected by the opposite forces of water flow and maintained the original positioning accuracy. The horizontal auto-targeting system and the vertical auto-targeting system are separately driven by two stepper motors that the rotation centers of the two stepper motors are perpendicular to each other. The horizontal stepper motor drive the worm by the key, thus the worm wheel 1 and the small gear 2 are driven, so the large gear 15 and the whole system rotate back and forth for 360o in the horizontal direction. After the horizontal position of fire is located, the worm 10 is driven by the vertical stepper motor 11, thus the worm wheel 12 and the small gear 6 are driven, so the large gear 5, the water outlet pipe 4 and the nozzle 8 swing for 90o in the vertical direction. The horizontal auto-targeting system and the vertical auto-targeting system are installed limited mechanism The limited rods which are installed on the large gear 15 and the large gear 5 touch the limited switchs which are installed on the roof 18 and the connecting water pipe 13 to limit the position of the horizontal and vertical direction.The nozzle 8 is connected with the water outlet pipe 4 by thread, the water outlet pipe 4 is connected with the inlet pipe 15 by the connecting water pipe 13, the water flow from the inlet pipe 15 to the nozzle 8.

D. Sensor and its driving circuit Sensor and its driving circuit are the important parts of the control system of intelligent fire extinguishing system. The main function of senor and its driving circuit is that they collect the signal of the fire timely and accurately and convert the signal to the electric signal and deliver it to SPCE061A. R2868 is a UV TRON ultraviolet detector that makes use of the photoelectric effect of metal and the gas multiplication effect, so it can find the distant flame and even can detect the flame of a cigarette lighter at a distance of more than 5m. It has a narrow spectral sensitivity of 185 to 260 nm, being completely insensitive to visible light. Unlike semiconductor detectors, it does not require optical visible-cut filters, thus making it easy to use.

DESIGN OF THE SOFTWARE OF ELECTRICAL CONTROL SYSTEM

Software which was designed to be modular and used C language mainly consists of the main program and the subprograms. Main program initializes the system and call subprograms. The subprogram such as port initialization, stepper motor reset, sensor detection, the left and right rotation of horizontal stepper motor, the up and down rotation of vertical stepper motor, manual romote control, alarm and delay time severally complete the control processes. Program is compiled and debugged by the integrated Development Environment of μ’nSP IDE which have a kind interface to make programming and debugging easy and efficient.

C3704

The senor driving circuit is C3704, as shown in Figure 6. C3704 series UV TRON driving circuits are low current consuming, signal processing circuits for the UV TRON, well known as a high sensitivity ultraviolet detecting tube. C3704 can be operated when it is provided 10V to 30V DC voltage and connect with R2868, as they have both a high voltage power supply and a signal processing circuit on the same printed circuit board. So it can provide 350V supply voltage to R2868 [3]. E. Alarm Circuit The way of alarm is buzzer alarm, its alarm circuit is shown in Figure 7. IOB11 as the signal input port of alarm circuit connect with alarm circuit. The buzzer is driven to alarm by the alarm signal amplified by the NPN-type transistor.

the flow chart of main program

Figure 8 is a flow chart of main program. When the system start working, the main program firstly initializes the system, then stepper motors reset and the detecting sensor is open. If there is not the detecting signal, the detecting sensor continue to monitor, otherwise, if the manual remote control is open, the main program call the subprogram of manual remote control, if there is not, the main program orderly call the alarm, horizontal scanning, vertical scanning, fight fire, close valve subprograms to complete the process of fighting fire and use *P_Watchdog_Clear=0x0001 to cleal watchdog.

on the roof high above the ground 5m, and a fire was set up about 5m away from it. When the power open, the system could timely and accurately detect, find, and locate the fire according to the requirement of the programs. The locating time was about 10s, so the system met the design requirement.
