The present invention relates to a tent with a flood alarm. More specific, this invention is about a tent with flood alarm which is able to warn for flood by setting a sensor which is composed of a power supply which generates electricity with the standard reduction potential and a sensor paper that absorbs water to the tent in the vicinity of a valley.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONGenerally, modern people who is living a highly advanced industry environment and city civilization is suffering from stresses such as noises and pollutions and to relieve stresses they visit amusement parks or valleys at mountains which have beautiful landscape or go camping in weekend. The weather information is very important for activities like climbing mountain or camping and the weather is currently judged by only weather casts.
However, the weather cast only forecasts the weather of broad location, not specific location and it is quite difficult that judging and coping based on only the weather cast because of frequent downpours currently.
Especially, sudden heavy rains happens often in mountain valleys which cause abrupt rising of water which makes several problems to campers.
To solve those problems, the Korean Intellectual Property Office utility model gazette 0287657 deploys an automatic alarm system for valley floods.
However, because constructing the system needs enormous capital investments and manpower, it is useless to campers who set tents at famous valleys or parks.
Moreover, technology mentioned forward has such problems that complicate setting and high holding cost.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION ProblemsThe present invention in for solving the problems mentioned upper by providing a tent with the flood alarm which prepares from sudden downpours by a speaker and a sensor connected with the speaker with wire and fixing ball located in an aspect of the sensor, does not necessary enormous capital investment and manpower has no holding cost.
Methods for Solving ProblemsTo achieve the purposes, the present invention has a speaker which is fixed to the frame with a fixing bracket and a power supply connected with the speaker and generating electricity with the standard reduction potential of the oxidation-reduction reaction and a sensor connected with the power supply and has a sensing paper which moves electrons by absorbing water and a fixing ball attached at an aspect of the sensor and available to regulating its length inside of the tent which is composed of a frame and an outer cover that covers the frame.
And the fixing ball is composed of a piece shaped spur which fixes to rear first and bending ropes which fixes second.
And the power supply of the sensor has a copper plate of (+) pole and a sensing paper which includes copper chloride on the (+) pole and on the sensing paper there is a magnesium plate of (−) pole.
And the fixing bracket is made of elastic materials and it has the fixing ball whose radius is same with that of the circled frame and an incision part whose radius of side is smaller than that of the frame is inserted by pressure with the frame.
Effects of the InventionMentioned upper, first, because of its good portability and simplicity to setting, it is expected that explosive sales for preparing flood when campers visit valleys or flooding risk regions.
Second, visiting valleys or flooding risk regions, campers can sleep safely and comfortably with setting the present invention.
Now, preferred embodiments in accordance with will be described in detail with reference to the annexed drawings.
As figured in
Now, each parts will be explained in detail.
The speaker(110) in located in the tent warns crisis situations to users who sleep in the tent.
The speaker(110) is assembled to the frame(50) with the fixing bracket(500).
Desirably, the fixing bracket(500) consists of an elastic material, and the assembling ball(510) whose radius is same with that of the circular frame is penetrated and forming the incision part(520) whose radius in smaller than that of the frame and trough the incision part, it is inserted to the frame by pressure.
In other word, the fixing bracket(500) which is assembled with the back of the speaker(110) is located to meet the frame(50) with the incision part(520) and inserted by pressure, which makes the fixing ball insert to the frame(50).
The sensor(200) consists of the case(260) and the power supply(260) which generates power by chemical batteries using the standard reduction potential in side of the case(260) and the sensing paper(240).
The case(260) is an rectangular exterior that covers the power supply(210) and the sensing paper(240). And its preferred that for simple structure and low price, the case(260) should consist of a transparent coating paper.
At first, looking into the chemical battery, an oxidation/reduction reaction occurs as a movement of electrons and electrical energy is generated by the movement of electrons. Since an availability to lose electrons is different for each metal, an electromotive force of a Nickel-Cadmium battery is 1.1V, Alkali battery is 1.5V by comparison Lithium ion battery is 3.6V. For reference, a Lithium ion battery uses carbon for cathode, transition metal oxide for anode and the electric energy is generated by moving ions of transition metal oxide to lattice structure of carbon atoms. A Nickel-Cadmium battery uses Nickel oxide for anode, Cadmium for cathode. However, because of the difference of oxidizing power between two substances is so small, the voltage is measured as 1.1V.
Therefore, every battery consists of anode and cathode and when oxidation occurs in cathode, reduction occurs in anode and the chemical energy is converted to electric energy by moving electrons from cathode to anode. In other word, an electromotive force of a battery can be measured only if anode and cathode exists as a pair. Therefore, to figure an intensity of oxidation or reduction of metal concretely, there has to be an standard which makes us notice the reactions when oxidation or reduction happens.
To solve above mentioned problem, Hydrogen is the atom which is needed because the standard for ionization tendency of metal is Hydrogen. Generally, the electrode that is manufactured by relieving Hydrogen gas of 1 atm to a Platinum electrode which is inserted in the 1M of Hydrogen solution at 25° C., 1 atm is called the standard Hydrogen electrode and the electromotive force of the electrode is E0=0.00V. A standard reduction potential is the voltage of the battery which is made of a standard Hydrogen electrode. In addition, 25° C., 1 atmosphere pressure, (metal) ion 1M are standards and metal is not a only material for standard reduction electrodes.
The power supply(210) is equipped in the case(260), over the metal(22) of the (+) pole the sensing paper(240) is formed which absorbs water and upper surface of the sensing paper(240) the metal(230) of the (−) pole is formed. At this point, the sensing paper is extended from inside of the case(260) toward lower direction.
The wire(120) connects metal(230) of the (−) pole and the metal(22) of the (+) pole to speaker(110) as a series connection.
It is preferred that multiple series circuits of the metal of the (−) pole and the sensing paper and the metal(22) of the (+) pole to generate large voltage.
This is one example of consisting a power supply of sensor in accordance with the present invention.
First, prepare the lower case(260)(coating paper) of 8˜10 cm *5˜7 cm.
Second, locate the copper plate which is the metal(22) of (+) side by side on the lower coating paper.
Third, attach the sensing paper(240) which absorbs water to the copper plate.
Fourth, put a copper chloride, an electrolyte, to the sensing paper(240)
Fifth, locate a magnesium which is the metal(230) of the (−) pole on the sensing paper(240)
Sixth, After connect power supply(210) which consists of two part as series connection with the enamel wire(28), coat the power supply(210) with the upper coating paper.
At this point, the sensing paper is better to use a traditional Korean paper or rice paper to absorb water more efficiently.
The fixing ball(300) is formed at an aspect of the sensor and fixes the sensor(200) tightly to valleys.
The fixing ball(300) is composed of the piece shaped spur(340) at one side and the rubber band(320) on another side, and the spur is inserted to crack of rocks or trees at valleys tightly first, fastens at trees in the vicinity secondly.
The fixing ball(30) is manufacture to enable portability and easy set, and the spur(340) can be used glue, not only piece shape.
As above, the basic technological idea of the present invention is manufacturing a tent with a speaker that enables flood alarm. However, because this is just an example, and a person who has common knowledge of this field can apply various versions and examples, the true technological protection scope must be decided according to the scope of an request for a patent attached.
