Abstract
A fire blanket deployment system includes a fire blanket assembly including a foldable fire blanket that is detachably coupled to a carrier. The foldable fire blanket is initially in a folded state. The system can include a frame having a plurality of vertical supports that are spaced apart from one another and for placement about an asset to be protected. A first suspension system is coupled to the plurality of vertical supports and is configured to move the fire blanket assembly to a target location between the plurality of vertical supports. A second suspension system that is coupled to the plurality of vertical supports and is configured to controllably unfold the fire blanket once the fire blanket assembly in at the target location. The second suspension system has an automatic detachment mechanism that allows the unfolded fire blanket to move downward toward the asset to be protected.
