The use and maintenance of fire fighting vehicles

With the rapid development of society and economy, various new disasters are also occurring constantly, which puts higher and higher requirements on the performance of fire-fighting vehicles. As a special vehicle, the fire truck is designed and manufactured as a vehicle suitable for firefighters and equipped with various fire-fighting equipment or fire-extinguishing agents according to the needs of fire-fighting and emergency rescue. This article discusses the daily maintenance work of fire fighting vehicles for the reference of relevant personnel.

The importance of fire fighting vehicle maintenance

With the rapid development of high technology, the ever-changing level of science and technology has been applied to various fields, and various industries are also developing rapidly. People tend to pay more attention to the development of science and technology, but the security risks brought about by the development of science and technology are becoming more and more serious. Fire is the biggest safety hazard, and it is easy to cause huge economic losses to people and threaten people’s health. We must pay attention to firefighting, which plays a key role in emergency rescue and firefighting. The normal operation of fire-fighting vehicles is the key to smooth firefighting. Therefore, the use and maintenance of fire fighting vehicles is very important. Fire-fighting vehicles directly affect the ability of fire-fighting.

Factors restricting the normal use of fire fighting vehicles

2.1 Quality influence of various parts of fire truck

Fire-fighting vehicles are slightly different in structure from other vehicles. They are mainly designed and produced around rescue and are special vehicles that meet the needs of fire rescue. Fire-fighting vehicles are mainly composed of chassis and fire-fighting tops. The chassis is the same as that of general vehicles, but according to different Compared with ordinary vehicles, the main difference between fire trucks is the fire top. This part is mainly composed of fire pumps, automatic control systems, instruments, valves, tanks and other components. The function of each component directly affects the condition of the vehicle. The operation quality of the fire truck depends on whether the functions of the various components are coordinated. Only comprehensive Parts maintenance and maintenance can ensure the normal operation of the vehicle.

2.2 Influence of the usage conditions of the vehicle

The conditions used by fire-fighting vehicles are relatively harsh, and they can be used on any road and in any environment. Under such high-intensity environmental conditions, vehicle maintenance is more critical. Under normal circumstances, the outside of the fire fighting vehicle is fully loaded, and the dispatching of the fire fighting vehicle is generally unpredictable. There are many emergencies and the situation is more complicated. If the maintenance is not in place, in the face of this situation, It is very difficult to deal with, so that some parts are damaged in harsh conditions. At the same time, there are some idle fire-fighting vehicles that have not been used for a long time, and some parts are prone to problems, such as rust, aging, and falling off of parts, which affect the normal use of fire-fighting vehicles. If the fire-fighting vehicle starts suddenly, it will cause the parts to increase friction. , reduce the life of components, the road conditions faced by fire vehicles are different, under any conditions, they need to be at the scene, close to the main fire source area, affecting the function of vehicle components.

2.3 Influence of knowledge level of firefighters

During the use of fire-fighting vehicles, personnel are required to operate. If the operators do not have professional knowledge, or the relevant knowledge is not in-depth, operation errors will occur, which will reduce the life of the vehicle and affect the rescue effect. In the actual operation process, some Firefighters have a one-sided understanding of vehicle driving skills, but are still not able to master the vehicle performance skillfully, which makes the operation of firefighting vehicles illegal. Some firefighting units do not have necessary training. If they do, they are also on-the-job training. There is very little driver training, and they do not pay attention to the improvement of driving training skills. As a result, vehicle problems have become more and more prominent, affecting the rescue effect and quality.

2.4 Impact of reassembly of fire trucks

Fire-fighting vehicles have a special structure. Compared with ordinary vehicles, fire-fighting vehicles are equipped with heavy equipment, especially the water pump installed on fire-fighting vehicles. During operation, the starting energy is larger than that of ordinary vehicles, which virtually increases the load of the fire-fighting vehicle itself. , making the self-weight larger and larger, which not only reduces the function of the components, but also affects the service life of the vehicle. Usually, in order to ensure the reassembly requirements of the fire truck, it is necessary to make the correct choice of tires, and use high-quality, wear-resistant and pressure-resistant tires. In this way, the bearing capacity of the vehicle is improved, and the balance of the force of each component is ensured.

The normal maintenance of fire fighting vehicles is a must for firefighters every day. The normal use of fire fighting vehicles plays a decisive role in the safety of each of our citizens. Not only firefighters must be strictly disciplined, but also relevant enterprises and institutions must pay sufficient attention.
