Abstract

Et alarmanlæg omfattende detektering af personer m.v. til en bygningskonstruktion, såsom et hotel eller et skib, der har flere rum, er der i de enkelte rum installeret alarmer og detektorer, hvor i tilfælde af at en alarmsituation opstår, bevirker at detektorerne aktiveres. Med henblik op, at sikre, at de rum, hvor der findes personer eller dyr, er detektorerne indrettet til at detektere tilstedeværelsen af personerne eller dyrene uanset om personerne eller dyrene bevæger sig, og således at detekteringen sker diskret, uden at de enkelte personer eller dyrs identitet afsløres. Alle alarmer og detektorer styres fra en overvågningscentral. Desuden er det muligt at tilvejebringe en alarmmeddelelse til en indsatsleders mobiltelefon, smartphone tablet, såsom en Ipad eller lign.An alarm system comprising detection of persons, etc. alarms and detectors are installed in each room for a building structure, such as a hotel or a ship that has multiple rooms, which in the event of an alarm situation causes the detectors to be activated. In order to ensure that the rooms where there are persons or animals, the detectors are arranged to detect the presence of the persons or animals irrespective of whether the persons or animals are moving, and so that the detection is done discreetly, without the individual persons or animal identity is revealed. All alarms and detectors are controlled from a monitoring center. In addition, it is possible to provide an alarm message to an insert manager's mobile phone, smartphone tablet, such as an Ipad or the like.

Description

Frembringelsen angår et alarmanlæg omfattende detektering af personer m.v. i en bygningskonstruktion, der har et antal individuelle rum, hvor de enkelte rum har en alarm samt mindst en detektor, og hvor alarmerne og detektorerne er forbundet til en overvågningscentral, således at overvågningscentralen, i tilfælde af en alarmafgivelse fra et eller flere rum, eller fra en udefrakommende trussel til overvågningscentralen, opretter forbindelse til detektorerne.The production relates to an alarm system comprising detection of persons, etc. in a building structure having a plurality of individual compartments wherein each compartment has an alarm as well as at least one detector and wherein the alarms and detectors are connected to a monitoring center such that the monitoring center, in the event of an alarm emitting from one or more rooms, or from an outside threat to the monitoring center, connect to the detectors.

Desuden angår frembringelsen en anvendelse af alarmanlægget.In addition, the production relates to the use of the alarm system.

I US 2010/0164732 A1 beskrives et evakueringssystem af automatisk type.US 2010/0164732 A1 describes an automatic type evacuation system.

Ved dette system etableres flugtruter i et bygningskompleks ved, at der i tilfælde af alarmafgivelse fra knudepunkter der afgiver alarm overføres information til beslutningsknudepunkter, som via en beregningsenhed angiver flugtruter til personerne i de alarmberørte rum.In this system, escape routes are established in a building complex by transmitting information in case of alarms from alarms to decision nodes, which, via a calculation unit, indicate escape routes to the persons in the alarm rooms.

I publikationen er det også beskrevet at der kan kommunikeres med et response center, som modtager information om tilstanden afgivet fra beslutningsknudepunkterne,The publication also discloses that a response center can be communicated which receives information about the state delivered from the decision nodes,

Det er således ikke beskrevet, at egentlige intelligente flugtruter kan tilvejebringes i samme øjeblik der afgives alarmer, fra en bemandet overvågningscentral.Thus, it is not disclosed that actual intelligent escape routes can be provided at the same moment that alarms are issued, from a manned monitoring center.

Et andet alarmanlæg kendes eksempelvis fra US patent nr. 4,851,823. Ved dette kendte alarmanlæg etableres der en mikrofon/højttaler kommunikation mellem en overvågningscentral og personer der befinder sig i rum, hvor der er iværksat alarm.Another alarm system is known, for example, from US Patent No. 4,851,823. At this known alarm system, a microphone / speaker communication is established between a monitoring center and persons located in rooms where an alarm has been triggered.

Det er således nødvendigt, at personerne deltager aktivt ved deres tilkendegivelse. Imidlertid er det en ulempe, at hvis personer, som f. eks sover eller endog er besvimet, vil der ikke blive etableret forbindelse, med det resultat af redningspersonale helt kan overse nogle personer, der derefter kan indebære en katastrofal situation.Thus, it is necessary that the persons actively participate in their manifestation. However, it is a disadvantage that if people who, for example, sleep or even faint, no connection will be established, with the result of rescue personnel can completely overlook some people who may then involve a catastrophic situation.

Det er på denne baggrund et formål med frembringelsen at afhjælpe denne væsentlige mangel.Against this background, it is an object of production to remedy this significant defect.

Frembringelsens formål tilgodeses ved at alarmanlæg af det i indledningen til krav 1 definerede, der er karakteristisk ved, at detektorerne er indrettet til at detektere, om der opholder sig levende objekter, såsom personer eller dyr, i alle rummene i bygningskomplekset, og at en alarmafgivelse fra rum hvor der er detekteret personer, afstedkommer planlægning af en hurtig redningsindsats, herunder etablering af intelligente flugtruter, fra bemandingen i overvågningscentralen, til de personer der opholder sig i rummene, hvor der er afgivet alarm.The object of the invention is met by alarm systems defined in the preamble of claim 1, characterized in that the detectors are arranged to detect whether living objects, such as persons or animals, are present in all rooms of the building complex and that an alarm is issued. From spaces where people have been detected, planning a quick rescue effort, including the establishment of intelligent escape routes, from staffing at the surveillance center, to those staying in the rooms where an alarm has been issued.

På denne måde vil ingen personer, der befinder sig i rum i bygningskomplekset, blive overset, i tilfælde af eksempelvis en brand, idet en meget hurtig indsats fra overvågningscentralen kan iværksættes.In this way, no people who are in rooms in the building complex will be overlooked, in the case of, for example, a fire, as a very quick response from the monitoring center can be initiated.

Desuden vil en eventuel trussel, f.eks. en bombetrussel, hurtigt kunne bidrage til evakueringsplaner for personerne, der opholder sig i rummene, idet der fra overvågningscentralen kan tilvejebringes evakueringsplaner.In addition, any threat, e.g. a bomb threat could quickly contribute to evacuation plans for people staying in the rooms, as evacuation plans can be provided from the monitoring center.

En Hensigtsmæssig udførelsesform for detektorerne, kan som angivet i krav 2 være, at detektorerne udgøres af bevægelsessensorer.An appropriate embodiment of the detectors, as stated in claim 2, may be that the detectors are constituted by motion sensors.

En mere foretrukken udførelsesform for frembringelsen, kan som angivet i krav 3 være, at detektorerne er termiske sensorer, da temperaturregistrering af personerne, der delvist er afskærmet af objekter, f. eks. under et bord, også kan registreres.A more preferred embodiment of the generation, as stated in claim 3, may be that the detectors are thermal sensors, since temperature sensing of the persons partially shielded by objects, eg under a table, can also be recorded.

En yderligere hensigtsmæssig udførelsesform for frembringelsen, kan som angivet i krav 4 være, at detektorerne udgøres af mindst et kamera, hvor som angivet i krav 5, kameraet er roterende, og som angivet i krav 6, at kameraet afbilder i det infrarøde spektralområde.A further convenient embodiment of the generation, as set forth in claim 4, may be that the detectors are at least one camera, wherein as set forth in claim 5, the camera is rotating, and as set forth in claim 6, the camera is imaging in the infrared spectral range.

Af hensyn til gældende lovgivning og sikring af at de overvågede personers diskretion sikres, er det en fordel, som angivet i krav 7, at kameraet afbilder de levende objekter tilsløret.For the purposes of applicable law and to ensure the discretion of the supervised persons, it is an advantage, as stated in claim 7, that the camera depicts the living objects obscured.

Af installationsmæssige årsager, kan det endvidere være en fordel, hvis som angivet i krav 8 at, detektorerne er sammenbygget med alarmerne.Furthermore, for installation reasons, it may be advantageous if, as set forth in claim 8, that the detectors are bundled with the alarms.

Med henblik på at sikre fuld anonymitet, af de personer, der befinder sig i rum, hvor der ikke er afgivet alarm, er det fordelagtigt, som angivet i krav 9, at detektorerne er afbrudt, når der ikke forekommer et alarmsignal.In order to ensure complete anonymity of the persons in rooms where no alarm has been issued, it is advantageous, as stated in claim 9, that the detectors are switched off when no alarm signal is present.

Som nævnt angår frembringelsen også anvendelser.As mentioned, the production also relates to uses.

Denne anvendelse er nærmer angivet i krav 1 0 og krav 11.This use is more particularly set forth in claims 100 and claim 11.

Frembringelsen vil herefter blive nærmere forklaret i forbindelse med tegningen på hvilkenThe production will then be explained in more detail in connection with the drawing on which

Fig. 1 viser opbygningen af frembringelsens grundprincipper, medensFIG. 1 shows the structure of the basic principles of production, while

Fig. 2 viser hvorledes en alarm/sensor i et rum i en bygning kan være installeret.FIG. 2 shows how an alarm / sensor in a room in a building can be installed.

På fig. 1 med 1 i sin helhed betegnet en plantegning af bygningskonstruktion, der kan være en hoteletage, et kontormiljø, et kahytafsnit på et krydstogtskib og lign.In FIG. 1 by 1 in its entirety denoted a floor plan of building construction which may be a hotel floor, an office environment, a cabin section of a cruise ship and the like.

Som det ses består bygningskonstruktionen bl. a. af et antal rum eller værelser, hvoraf nogle på fig. 1 er betegnet R1, R2, R3, RX.As can be seen, the building structure consists of a. of a number of rooms or rooms, some of which in FIG. 1 is denoted R1, R2, R3, RX.

I rummene betegner symbolerne 7 velkendte brandalarmer, f’ eks røgdetektorer eller temperaturmålere, omend andre typer alarmer kan tænkes, medens 8 betegner detektorer, som det vil blive forklaret nedenfor.In the rooms, the symbols 7 denote well-known fire alarms, such as smoke detectors or temperature gauges, although other types of alarms may be conceived, while 8 denote detectors, as will be explained below.

Yderligere ses på fig. 1 en overvågningscentral med computerudstyr 4, og et display, der betjenes af en eller flere personer.Further seen in FIG. 1 shows a monitoring center with computer equipment 4, and a display operated by one or more persons.

Yderligere er med 5 betegnet en mobiltelefon af smartphone typen eller en tablet, såsom en I pad, der fordelagtigt kan være i en indsatsleders besiddelse.Further, with 5 is denoted a smartphone of the smartphone type or a tablet, such as an I pad, which may advantageously be in the possession of an insert leader.

Som det ses er der tilvejebragt trådløse forbindelser mellem alarmerne 7, detektorerne 8 og overvågningscentralen 2, samt indsatslederens 6 mobiltelefon eller Ipad. Dette vil kræve, at alarmer og/el ler detektorer er forsynet med sende/modtagerudstyr, og eventuelt WIFI forbindelser. Det skal også bemærkes, at kabelforbindelser mellem de indgåede alarmenheder er mulig, f. eks. i forbindelse med en større bygningskonstruktion, der har egen central overvågningscentral.As can be seen, wireless connections are provided between the alarms 7, the detectors 8 and the monitoring center 2, as well as the mobile phone or Ipad of the conductor 6. This will require alarms and / or detectors to be equipped with transmitter / receiver equipment, and possibly WIFI connections. It should also be noted that cable connections between the entered alarm units are possible, for example in connection with a larger building structure which has its own central monitoring center.

Idet der nu henvises til fig. 2, skal det forklares, hvorledes en alarmsituation i et rum, f.eks. et hotelværelse, som vist på fig. 2 håndteres.Referring now to FIG. 2, it must be explained how an alarm situation in a room, e.g. a hotel room, as shown in FIG. 2 handled.

På fig. 2 ses brandalarmen 7, samt en detektor 8.In FIG. 2, the fire alarm 7 and a detector 8 are shown.

Yderligere kan der være, men ikke nødvendigvis være installeret en ekstra detektor 8a.Further, there may be, but not necessarily, an additional detector 8a installed.

Ligeledes kan placeringen af brandalarmer og detektorer placeres i positioner, som er mest hensigtsmæssige i et givet rum.Likewise, the location of fire alarms and detectors can be placed in positions most appropriate in a given room.

Overordnet fungerer alarmerne og detektorerne i de forskellige rum på følgende måde: I det øjeblik en alarm afgives af alarmen 7 på grund af f. eks. røg eller ild, iværksættes alarmen, som øjeblikkeligt blive sendt til overvågningscentralen 2, på fig. 1.In general, the alarms and detectors in the various rooms function as follows: The moment an alarm is issued by the alarm 7 due to, for example, smoke or fire, the alarm which is immediately sent to the monitoring center 2, in fig. First

Herfra vil detektorerne 8 automatisk blive aktiveret, og disse detektorer vil sende informationssignaler til overvågningscentralen, som der kan fås et øjeblikkelig overblik over i hvilke rum, der befinder sig personer, der er omfattet af en alarmsituation, og derefter planlægge en hurtig redningsindsats, herunder etablere ’’intelligente” flugtruter med lysende markeringer.From here, the detectors 8 will be automatically activated and these detectors will send information signals to the monitoring center, which can obtain an immediate overview of the rooms in which people are subject to an alarm situation, and then plan a quick rescue effort, including establishing '' intelligent 'escape routes with illuminating markings.

Yderligere vil en indsatslederen blive informeret om en alarmsituation, således at alle redningsoperationer kan iværksættes hurtigt og effektivt, hvor det vigtigste er at redde liv i de rum, hvor der opholder sig personer.In addition, an emergency manager will be informed of an alarm situation so that all rescue operations can be carried out quickly and efficiently, where the most important thing is to save lives in the rooms where people are staying.

Det er meget vigtigt, at detektorerne registrerer alle personer i alarmområdet, hvilket betyder, at personer skal detekteres uanset om de ikke bevæger sig, eller måske er delvist ’’skjult” under et bord osv. Det er også vigtigt, at detekteringen sikrer, at personer ikke overvåges, når der ikke er alarmaktivering. Desuden er det vigtigt at personerne, der detekteres, ikke får afsløret deres identitet.It is very important that the detectors detect all persons in the alarm area, which means that persons must be detected regardless of whether they are not moving, or maybe partially '' hidden 'under a table, etc. It is also important that the detection ensures that people are not monitored when there is no alarm activation. In addition, it is important that the persons detected do not reveal their identity.

Det skal også bemærkes, at da der er lagt vægt på, at selv om personer der befinder sig i de enkelte rum ikke må detekteres, kan der tilvejebringes en mulighed for at politi med en dommerkendelse at få adgang til eftersøgning af personer, der prøver at skjule sig. Det kræver dog, at det er muligt at gemme informationer fra detektorerne i et givet tidsrum, altså tilvejebringe en såkaldt logbog.It should also be noted that, since it has been emphasized that, although persons located in individual rooms may not be detected, an opportunity may be provided for police with a warrant to gain access to search for persons trying to to hide. However, it requires that it is possible to store information from the detectors for a given period of time, thus providing a so-called logbook.
