FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
     The present invention relates to a powerless automatic and/or manual fire-extinguishing device, and especially to a powerless fire-extinguishing device, in which steel ropes are used to actuate a fire-extinguisher automatically or manually so that fire-extinguishing material can extinguish fire through fire-extinguishing tubes. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     The prior art fire-extinguishing structure is arranged according to the steel frames, and the smoke or high temperature sensor is exposed outsides for detecting smoke or temperature. A circuit control is used to a fire-extinguisher to actuate automatically. However, in fire accident, often power can not be supplied normally, and thus, the use of the device is not ideal. Moreover, in the prior art designs, a powerless fire-extinguishing device using steel ropes is used, while in that, the sensors and steel frames are exposed outsides and can not be enclosed. Furthermore, the steel ropes are arranged along a floor or beams so as to bent vertically. The work is hard, and thus the beauty of the room will be destroyed and it is not suitable to be used in bedroom, parlour, or cartridge with beautiful decoration. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     Accordingly, the primary object of the present invention is to provide a powerless automatic and/or manual fire-extinguishing device comprising at least one fuse sensor, a plurality of adaptor, a steel rope and an automatic actuating device of a fire-extinguisher. In the automatic sensor or manual device, a fuse sensor or a manual switch is used so that the tightness of the steel rope is varied for actuating the actuating device of a fire-extinguisher steel barrel and the gas isolating device can be driven synchronously for isolating the supply of gas. Therefore, fire is extinguished and gas flow is closed. 
     Another object of the present invention is to provide a powerless automatic and/or manual fire-extinguishing device, wherein the fuse sensor is supported on the V shape fixing frame. A fuse pin serves to press a steel rope to be in a standby condition. In a high temperature from a fire accident, the fuse pin will break automatically so that the steel rope is in a release condition so as to actuate a fire-extinguisher. In the whole structure, only the fuse sensor is exposed, while the other components are shielded in the ceiling. Thus, the present invention has wide application, which is especially suitable in the bedroom, or cartridge, etc with decoration. 
     A further object of the present invention is to provide a powerless automatic and/or manual fire-extinguishing device, wherein the adaptor serves to be penetrated by the steel rope and change direction as desired. Thus, the steel rope can be installed conveniently according to the installing place without being confined by the terrain of the floor and beam. 
     The various objects and advantages of the present invention will be more readily understood from the following detailed description when reading in conjunction with the appended drawing.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS 
     With reference to FIG. 1, the powerless automatic and/or manual fire-extinguishing device of the present invention is illustrated. The powerless automatic and/or manual fire-extinguishing device includes a fuse sensor  1 , a plurality of adaptors  2 , a steel rope  3  and an automatic actuating device  4  of a fire-extinguisher. 
     As shown in FIGS. 1 to  4 , the fuse sensor  1  is formed by a fixing frame  11  having a V shape or the like and a fuse pin  12 . One or two sides thereof have an extending piece  113  and a through hole  114  for being penetrated by the steel rope  3 . The fuse pin  12  has an upper end hung on the steel rope  3 . The lower end thereof is welded with a pin plate  121  (as shown in FIG. 3) and is embedded into the opening  111  at the bottom of the fixing frame  11  to be buckled at the lower side of the stopper  112 . In buckling, the steel rope  3  tightly presses downwards to be in a standby state (as shown in FIG.  4 ). 
     The adaptor  2  is arranged according to the configuration of the floor, or beam, or ceiling A (as shown in FIG. 1) so that the steel rope  3  may penetrate through the adaptor  2  to be distributed on the floor or beam as desired. As shown in FIG. 5, the adaptor  2  is formed by two correspondingly engaged ratchets  21  and  21 ′, a stud  22  and two hollow locking elements  23  and  23 ′. 
     One side of each ratchet  21 ,  21 ′ is extended with a hollow locking tube  211  and  211 ′ for being locking by the hollow locking elements  23 ,  23 ′, the central portion thereof is a hollow stepped portion for receiving a hollow sliding shaft  24  and is fixed by the stud  22 . Thus, the sliding shaft  24  is movably received therein. Moreover, the sliding shaft  24  has a round trench  241  so that the steel rope  3  sequentially penetrates through the hollow locking element  23  and the ratchet  21  and then changing direction through e round trench  241  of the sliding shaft  24  to rightwards pass out the hollow locking tube  211 ′ and the hollow locking element  24 ′ of another ratchet disk  21 ′. 
     If the aforesaid adaptors  2  are properly secured to a floor or beams, one end of a fixing piece  25  is in advance fixed to the floor or the beams, while another end passes through the space between the hollow locking tubes  211  or  211 ′ installed in the ratchets  21  or  21 ′ and the hollow locking elements  23  and  24 ′ for locking. 
     The steel ropes  3  and  3 ′ are distributed as desired. The installing place is installed with one or more fuse sensor  1 , a plurality of adaptors  2  and a fire extinguisher automatic actuating device  4  and/or a manual fire extinguisher device  5 . 
     As shown in FIGS. 6 to  8 , The automatic actuating device  4  includes a swingable rod  41 , an actuating rod  41 , a stopping pin  43  and an elastic element  44 . 
     The actuating rod  42 , as shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, is positioned by suspending a movable rod  420  through the automatic actuating and/or manual actuating steel ropes  3 ,  3 ′ and resisting one end thereof against a top plate  423 . The front end of the actuating rod  42  has a protrusion  421  capable of embedding into the groove  412  of the swingable rod  41  and the lower end thereof is pulled and fixed by the telescopic spring  422 . When any one of the automatic actuating steel rope  3  or manual actuating steel rope  3 ′ is released, the actuating rod  42  will fall down to be released from the buckling of the swingable rod  42 . 
     The stopping pin  43  is a pin body, and the front end thereof is a vertical pin rod  431 . The vertical pin rod  431  inserts into the L shape buckling groove  411  of the swingable plate  41  and is buckled therein. However, as the swingable plate  41  is shifted, the stopping pin  43  can be released. Further, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the lower end of the stopping pin  43  suspends with a weigh or an acting force W. While the middle section is connected to a pressing rod  432 . As the stopping pin  43  moves downwards, the pressing rod  432  will be driven to press the switch  61  of the steel barrel  6  of the fire extinguisher so that the fire extinguisher releases fire-extinguishing material. Then, by the fire-extinguishing tube  62 , the fire-extinguishing material arrives at the outlets  621  of the tube for fire-extinguishing. 
     The manual fire-extinguishing device  5  includes a manual actuating steel rope  3 ′ and a manual opening device  7 . The manual actuating steel rope  3 ′ is arranged independently from the automatic actuating steel rope  3 , and one end thereof is connected to the stopping pin  43  for generating an actuating function independently, while another end is connected to the manual opening device  7 . When the manual actuating device  7  is actuated, the steel rope  3  will release to cause the stopping pin  43  moves downwards slowly to drive the pressing rod  432  presses the switch  61  of the fire-extinguisher steel barrel  6  for fire-extinguishing. 
     Referring to FIGS. 11 to  15 , the manual opening device  7  includes a braking handle  71  and a pressure releasing device  72  appending to the body of the breaking handle  7 . In general, the braking handle  71  is fixed through a safety pin  711 . As desired, the safety pin  711  can be removed so that the braking handle  71  is movable to cause that the manual actuating steel rope  3 ′ is in a loose condition (as shown in FIG.  12 ). The pressure release device  72  is formed by a supporting seat  720 , a button  721 , a spring  722 , a pin body  723 , a releasing wheel  724 , and a bottom case  725 . The button  721  and the spring  722  are embedded into and movable locks the supporting seat  720 . The pin body  723  is embedded in the releasing wheel  724 , and one end thereof is locked to the button  721 . The front ends of the pin body  723  and the supporting seat  720  have a key block  726  and a trench  727 , respectively. A key groove  728  is installed within the releasing wheel  724 . As the button  721  is pressed, the key block  728  will separate from the key groove  728  so as to rotate the releasing wheel  724 . Thus, the manual actuating steel rope  3 ′ is released (as shown in FIG.  5 ). Therefore, a user can select the breaking handle  71  or the pressure releasing device  72  as a manual opening way. 
     Furthermore, in the aforesaid pressure releasing device  72 , the inner wall of the supporting seat  720  has a plurality of teeth  730  arranged as a ring shape. The circular plurality of teeth  730  is engaged with respect to the protrusion  731  of the body of the braking handle  71 , and thus, the supporting seat  720  may rotate for driving the pressure releasing wheel  724  so as to tighten the steel rope  3 ′. However, as rotating in a reverse direction, the supporting seat  720  can not rotate. 
     As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the weight hung from or force W applied to the lower end of the stopping pin  43  can be formed by the spring W 1  and a movable seat W 2 . The spring W 1  displaces with the traveling of the movable seat W 2  so that the force W is varied. The moving of the movable seat W 2  can be controlled by the driving handle W 3 . 
     Next, for the positioning of the fire-extinguisher steel barrel  6 , since the sizes of the steel barrels are different, in order to assure as the stopping pin  43  moves downwards, it will slowly press downwards to drive the pressing rod  432  to open the switch  61  of the fire-extinguisher steel barrel  6  successfully. Moreover, a supporting plate  8  movably in the longitudinal direction is installed at the lower end of the fire-extinguisher steel barrel  6 . A helical rod  81  can be installed at the lower end of the supporting plate  8  and rotate by a driving handle  82  so that the supporting seat  8  freely moves. 
     As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, one side of the stopping pin  43  is installed with an L shape supporting rod  433  at one side of the stopping pin  43  will be buckled immediately for preventing the stopping pin  43  from vibration due to supporting rod  433 , and a buckling plate  434  is placed at a selected place so that as the stopping pin  43  moves downwards due to the instant releasing of the steel rope  3  or  3 ′ so as to affect the precision of the actuation of the fire-extinguisher steel barrel  6 . Further, at one side of the aforesaid plate can be installed with swingable rod  435  which is exactly aligned to the trigger position of a high pressure trumpet  436 . When the stopping pin  43  moves downwards, the swingable rod  435  will move upwards. Thus, in a powerless condition, the high pressure trumpet  436  can be triggered to emit an alarm voice. 
     According to FIG. 16, one side of the stopping pin  32  is arranged with an L shape supporting rod  433 , which can be firmly secured with a third steel rope  30  so as to be connected to a gas isolation device  9 . The basic structure of the gas isolation device  9  is identical to the automatic actuating device  4  and includes a swingable plate  91 , an actuating rod  92 , a stopping pin  93 , and an elastic element  94 . As the third steel rope  93  is pulled, the swingable plate  91  will be released so as to isolate the gas flow by the closing valve  931  in the front end of the stopping pin  93 . Hence, the object of fire-extinguishing is achieved.
