Title:
GRANTHAM MECHANICAL VENTILATOR FOR USE IN PREVENTING FLASHOVER WHEN FIGHTING FIRES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/072759
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Disclosed is a mechanical firefighting device capable of operating unattended once it has been configured from the outside of a burning structure. With no firefighter presence required in the burning structure, the device removes heated air and smoke from the structure and allows the application of materials to douse the fire, thereby minimizing the occurrence of flashover, the simultaneous combustion of the contents of a burning compartment which causes a fire to burn out of control.
