Publication number: 20190180590Abstract: Various embodiments may include fire detector comprising: a fire sensor generating a signal corresponding to a characteristic fire parameter; a control unit; and a photodiode for detecting ambient light in a spectrally delimited range of 400 nm to 1150 nm. The control unit analyzes the signal and generates a fire alarm if the signal corresponds to a predetermined threshold for a fire. The control unit analyzes a photo-signal received from the photodiode and if the flicker frequencies characteristic of open fire are detected, the control unit increases a sampling rate for acquiring the sensor signal from the fire sensor by reducing a filter time of an evaluation filter for the fire analysis and/or by lowering an alerting threshold.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 3, 2017Publication date: June 13, 2019Applicant: Siemens Schweiz AGInventors: Martin Fischer, Thomas Rohrer

Patent number: 10068735Abstract: A lever assembly is for an operating mechanism of an electrical switching apparatus. The electrical switching apparatus includes a number of pairs of separable contacts structured to move from a CLOSED position to a TRIPPED OPEN position in response to a trip condition. The operating mechanism has an enclosure member and a number of biasing elements coupled to the enclosure member. The biasing elements are structured to move the separable contacts from the CLOSED position to the TRIPPED OPEN position. The lever assembly includes a lever member structured to engage the enclosure member, and a component located on the lever member.

Patent number: 9905102Abstract: An open scattered light smoke detector for detecting smoke may include a light transmitter for emitting light, a light receiver spectrally matched to the light transmitter, and a control unit configured to repeatedly actuate the light transmitter, with a pulsed signal sequence, to emit corresponding light pulses, evaluate temporally a signal sequence received by the light receiver, and output a fire alarm if a received signal strength exceeds a minimum value for the smoke concentration. The control unit may be configured to switch the detector from a normal operating mode into a service mode if a phase angle between an emitted and received signal sequence, as determined on the detector side, increases by a minimum angular value which, in terms of the travel time, corresponds technically to an increase in the optical path length from the light transmitter to the light receiver of more than some predefined distance.Type: GrantFiled: May 6, 2016Date of Patent: February 27, 2018Assignee: SIEMENS SCHWEIZ AGInventor: Martin Fischer
