Abstract

568,857. Smoke-detecting apparatus. KIDDE CO., Ltd., W., and SPIDY, A. R. Sept. 10, 1943, No. 14886. [Class 47 (i)] A light-indicating member mounted to move responsively to the air stream serves to indicate failure of the source of light, or of the suction on the air, in a smoke-detecting apparatus of the kind in which sample air is drawn from a space to be protected against fire through a chamber A across which a beam of light is directed so as to illuminate any. smoke contained in the air. The light - indicating member may comprise a mirror G mounted, in the path of the light beam through a tube B from a light source C and mirror D, on a pivoted bar F which is counterbalanced by a flap valve F<1> or similar member obstructively mounted in the path of the incoming air stream through the inlet A<1>. Failure of the fan that maintains the suction on the air stream, or of the light source C becomes evident on a screen H in a detector chamber A.
