Abstract

See full text

Apparatus for fighting fires within storage tanks includes a frame movably coupled to the lip of the storage tank. The frame includes rotatable members by which the frame may be moved around the lip of the storage tank. Attached to the frame is a holding device adapted to hold a fire extinguisher nozzle on the interior of the storage tank so as to direct fire extinguishing agents down the inside face of the storage tank. The apparatus may include a fire detector to detect the presence and location of the fire, propulsion means to automatically move the apparatus around the storage tank to a location adjacent to the fire source, and a storage tank for storing fire suppressing agents be used to extinguish the fire.
