Claims (10)

43704/2 WHAT IS CLAIMED IS:
1. Fire-detec ing apparatus comprising: a source of radiation including a solid-state emitter emitting a beam of radiation in a series of pulses; radiation-receiving nieans positioned to receive radiation which has passed through an intervening gaseous medium from the said source and including a device sensitive to the received radiation to produce a corresponding electric signal, the beam of radiation, where incident on the radiation-receiving means, overlapping the radiation-receiving means around the vhole of its perimeter; a frequency-selective circuit for selecting from the output of the radiation-sensitive device a pulse signal resulting from the pulses of radiation from the said source; and an alarm circuit connected to receive this pulse signal and responsive to a variation of the amplitude of the pulse signal at a frequency of not less than 1 Hz and resulting from variations of the refractive index of the gaseous medium due to the heat of the fire.
2. Fire-detecting apparatus in accordance v/ith Claim 1, in which the source of radiation is an infra-red light source of the gallium arsenide kind.
3. Fire-detecting apparatus in accordance With Claim 1 or 2 , in which the radiation-sensi ive device is a pho o-transis or.
4. Fire-detecting apparatus in accordance with Claiiu 3 , including means whereby the photo-transistor is given a constant forward bias.
5. Fire-detecting apparatus in accordance with claim 4, in which the forward biasing means is a subsidiary source of radiation, located at the radiation-receiving means, and arranged to irradiate the photo-transistor at a substantially constant level,
6. Fire-detecting apparatus in accordance with any one of claims 1-5, in which the frequency response of the frequency-selective circuit is substantially greater than the pulse repetition frequency of the emitted pulses of radia ion,
7. Fire-detecting apparatus in accordance with any one of claims 1-6, in which the alarm circuit includes a frequency-selective audio frequency circuit.
8. Fire-detecting apparatus in accordance with claim 7, in which the maximum response of the said audio frequency circuit occurs in the frequency range 2 Hz to 25 Hz.
9. Fire-detecting apparatus in accordance with any one of claims 1-8, including a further alarm circuit responsive to a reduction in the amplitude of the said pulse signal indicative of at least a partial obscuration of the said emitted radiation.
10. Fire-detecting apparatus in accordance with claim 1, substantially as herein described with reference to Figure 1 of the accompanying drawings. P.0. Box 331 16 , Tel- Λ ν ι v A tt o rn e y s f o r Applicant
