ABSTRACT:
The circumbendibus safety system is a modular fire prevention system that can be placed in areas of a vehicle where a fire is likely to occur. The system automatically dispenses fire extinguishant into a fuel tank when the vehicle is subject to a predetermined level of impact or when the temperature at a predetermined location in the vehicle is at a predetermined level. Dispensation of fire extinguishant into the fuel tank can also be arranged to occur when two severe conditions are present such as a predetermined level of impact to the vehicle and a predetermined extraordinarily high temperature condition occurs. Other embodiments of the invention include means for detecting a predetermined level of impact to the vehicle, means for detecting predetermined temperature conditions at various locations in the vehicle and flow control devices that control the flow of fire extinguishant to various locations in the vehicle as well as the flow of fuel to the fuel tank and the flow of electricity to the ignition system.
