대표적으로 EV(Electric Vehicle), HEV(Hybrid Electric Vehicle), PHEV(Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle), FCEV(Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle) 등의 사업이다. Representative projects include EV (Electric Vehicle), HEV (Hybrid Electric Vehicle), PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle), and FCEV (Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle).
이하에서는 EV, HEV, PHEV, FCEV 등을 통칭하여 전기차(EV: Electric Vehicle)라 한다.Hereinafter, EV, HEV, PHEV, FCEV, etc. are collectively referred to as electric vehicles (EV).
전기차(EV) 사업에 대한 관심과 투자는 정부뿐만 아니라 민간 부문에서도 활발하며, 국내외 주요 자동차 생산 업체들, 배터리 제조 업체, 및 EVSE(Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment: 전기 자동차 충전 설비) 제작 업체 등에서 보다 양질의 제품을 개발하고 있다.Interest in and investment in the electric vehicle (EV) business is active not only in the government but also in the private sector, and major domestic and foreign automobile manufacturers, battery manufacturers, and EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment) manufacturers are producing higher quality products. We are developing a product.
일반적으로 전기 자동차는 배터리의 전원으로 모터를 구동시켜 일정 차속 이상의 주행성을 확보하여 이동수단으로서의 역할을 담당하고 있다.In general, electric vehicles play a role as a means of transportation by driving a motor with power from a battery to ensure driving performance above a certain vehicle speed.
이러한 전기 자동차는 배기가스의 대책의 일환으로 개발된 자동차로 소음이 적고, 배기가스가 전혀 없는 장점이 있으며, 보통 전기에너지로 전동기를 구동시키고, 동력전달장치를 통해 바퀴를 회전시켜 주행하는 무공해 자동차로서, 구동력에 필요한 동력원으로 배터리가 사용된다.These electric vehicles were developed as a measure to reduce exhaust gases, and have the advantage of low noise and no exhaust gases. They are pollution-free vehicles that usually drive an electric motor with electrical energy and rotate the wheels through a power transmission device. As such, a battery is used as a power source required for driving force.
이와 같은 배터리는 자동차의 저면에 다수개로 장착되며, 각각의 배터리가 직렬, 또는 병렬로 연결되어 전동기에 필요한 적정전압을 만들게 된다.A number of such batteries are installed on the bottom of the car, and each battery is connected in series or parallel to create the appropriate voltage required for the electric motor.
이처럼 배터리를 이용한 전기차가 증가하고 있는데, 그에 따라 전기차의 화재 사건도 증가하고 있다. As the number of electric vehicles using batteries is increasing, fire incidents involving electric vehicles are also increasing.
전기차 배터리 화재의 무서운 점은 크게 2가지이다.There are two main scary things about electric vehicle battery fires.
첫 번째는 충돌과 동시에 불이 나면서 불길이 순식간에 자동차 전체로 번질 만큼, 확산 속도가 빠르다는 점이고, 이는 배터리 열폭주 현상 때문이다. The first is that the fire starts at the same time as the collision and spreads quickly enough to spread throughout the entire car in an instant. This is due to the battery thermal runaway phenomenon.
두 번째는 전기차 배터리 화재의 진화가 어렵다는 점이고, 이는 배터리 패키지가 철제로 덮여 있어 소화제가 침투하지 못하기 때문이다. Second, it is difficult to extinguish an electric vehicle battery fire because the battery package is covered with iron, so fire extinguishing agents cannot penetrate.
배터리 열폭주가 발생하면, 전기차를 통째로 거대한 수조에 집어넣거나 전기차 주변에 가벽을 세워서 배터리 전체를 물로 감싸야 하는 실정이다.If a battery thermal runaway occurs, the entire electric vehicle must be placed in a huge water tank or a temporary wall must be built around the electric vehicle to surround the entire battery with water.
그러나, 전기차를 충전하는 충전소에는 전술한 바와 같이 배터리 화재가 발생하는 경우 전기차를 통째로 집어넣을 수조를 구비하는데 현실적으로 어려움이 있고, 전기차 주변에 가벽을 세워서 배터리 전체를 물로 감싸기 위해서는 시간과 인력이 많이 소요되는 문제점이 있다.However, as mentioned above, at charging stations for charging electric vehicles, it is realistically difficult to provide a water tank to put the entire electric vehicle in in the event of a battery fire, and it takes a lot of time and manpower to build a temporary wall around the electric vehicle and surround the entire battery with water. There is a problem.
본 발명은 전술한 바와 같은 종래의 여러 문제점들을 해결하기 위해 안출된 것으로서, 전기차 충전시 전기차 배터리 화재가 발생하는 경우 자동으로 화재를 감지하여 전기차 배터리 전체가 물에 잠기도록 함으로써 신속하게 화재에 대응할 수 있는 전기차 충전소 소방 설비를 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다.The present invention was developed to solve various problems in the prior art as described above. If a fire occurs in an electric vehicle battery when charging an electric vehicle, the present invention can automatically detect the fire and submerge the entire electric vehicle battery in water to quickly respond to the fire. The purpose is to provide firefighting equipment at electric vehicle charging stations.
본 발명의 다른 목적은, 전기차 배터리 화재가 발생하는 경우 전기차를 통째로 집어넣을 수 있는 수조를 별도로 마련하지 않아도 되는 전기차 충전소 소방 설비를 제공하는데 있다.Another object of the present invention is to provide firefighting equipment at an electric vehicle charging station that does not require a separate water tank into which the entire electric vehicle can be placed in when a fire occurs in the electric vehicle battery.

Figures 1 to 3 are views showing the parking stand of the electric charging unit and the firefighting device section, and Figures 4 to 6 are views showing the parking stand of the firefighting device section. These are drawings showing the state in which the air tube installed in the rim is expanded to form a water tank.
본 발명에 따른 전기차 충전소 소방 설비는, 전기차 충전시 전기차 배터리 화재가 발생하는 경우 자동으로 화재를 감지하여 전기차 배터리 전체가 물에 잠기도록 함으로써, 신속하게 화재에 대응하여 화재로 인한 2차 피해를 방지할 수 있는 장점이 있다.The electric vehicle charging station firefighting equipment according to the present invention automatically detects the fire when an electric vehicle battery fire occurs when charging an electric vehicle and submerges the entire electric vehicle battery in water, thereby quickly responding to the fire and preventing secondary damage from the fire. There are advantages to doing this.
이와 같은 본 발명의 전기차 충전소 소방 설비는, 전기 충전부(10)와 소방 장치부(20)를 포함하여 구성될 수 있다.The electric vehicle charging station firefighting equipment of the present invention may be configured to include an electric charging unit 10 and a firefighting device unit 20.
전기 충전부(10)는 전기차를 충전하기 위한 전기 충전기가 하나 이상 설치된 것으로서, 이러한 전기 충전기는 충전속도와 설치유형에 따라 분류할 수 있다.The electric charging unit 10 is one in which one or more electric chargers for charging electric vehicles are installed, and these electric chargers can be classified according to charging speed and installation type.
즉, 전기차 충전기는 충전 속도에 따라 급속충전기와 완속충전기로 나뉜다.In other words, electric vehicle chargers are divided into fast chargers and slow chargers depending on the charging speed.
완속충전 방식의 경우 미국, 일본, 한국 등이 공통으로 채택해 전기차 제조사나 사용자가 불편이 작은 데 비해, 급속충전 방식은 국가와 제조사마다 방식이 상이해 표준화 경쟁이 진행되고 있다.In the case of the slow charging method, it is commonly adopted by the United States, Japan, and Korea, causing little inconvenience to electric vehicle manufacturers and users, while the fast charging method is different for each country and manufacturer, so a competition for standardization is underway.
또한, 전기차 충전기는 설치유형에 따라 벽부형 충전기, 스탠드형 충전기, 이동형 충전기로 분류할 수 있다.Additionally, electric vehicle chargers can be classified into wall-mounted chargers, stand-type chargers, and mobile chargers depending on the installation type.
벽부형 충전기와 스탠드형 충전기의 경우 용량이 3~7 kW이며, 충전시간은 약 4~6시간이 소요된다. Wall-mounted chargers and stand-type chargers have a capacity of 3 to 7 kW, and charging time takes about 4 to 6 hours.
이동형 충전기는 용량이 최대 3 kW이며 충전시간은 약 6~9시간이 소요된다.The mobile charger has a capacity of up to 3 kW and charging time is approximately 6 to 9 hours.
