HOLDING DEVICE FOR THE SIDE-HOSE ON A FIRE EXTINGUISHING HOSE-REEL OR THE LIKE

Abstract: A holding device for side-hoses on fire hoses of the half rigid rubber type where the main part of the hose is rolled up on the reel in the usual way and connected to the water supply pipe while the foremost part of the hose with the water nozzle is taken out through the side (1) of the reel, rolled up there and fastened to the side (1) by pressing the side hose (9) down in clearings (6) in the holding devices (5, 5'). The invention is characterized with that there are edges (11) on both sides of the clearings (6) in the holding devices (5, 5') which are sloping from a longitudinally rib (7) where the clearings (6) are and downward and outward against that side of the reel (1) where the side-hose (9) is rolled up and the holding devices are fastened.

Description: Holding Device for the side-hose on a fire extinguishing hose-reel or the like. This holding device is used in order to hold a side- hose according to the Norwegian patent no. 148 216 firmly to the side of the reel. A side-hose can be fastened to the side of the reel by using a sort of device to press the side-hose against the side of the reel or by using holding devices on the side of the reel with clearings in which the hose can be pressed in. By fire hoses of this kind it is a condition that the side-hose can be pulled out in every direction. When using holding devices with clearings it is however - if no special measures are taken impossible to pull out the side-hose sideways because the hose will stick in the clearings. This invention will eliminate this drawback The invention is characterized with what is said in the enclosed claim. By means of this invention the side-hose can be fastened and can be pulled out in all directions. One part of the hose before or after the clearing will allways by means of one of the sloping edges be pressed out of the clearing when the hose is pulled out to one side. The invention is shown on the enclosed drawing and fig. 1 is a cross section of a hose reel whit two holding devices according to the invention. Fig.2 is a holding device seen from the side and fig.3 is a cross section A-A on fig. 2. On the drawing fig. 1 is 1 and 1 ' the sides of the reel, • 2 is a cylindrical plate or the like which is fastened OMPI to the sides 1 and 1 * and 3 is the nave of the reel on which the reel is revolving during the rolling-out of the main part of the hose while one is carriing the reel by means of the handle 4 against the places where the hose shall be used. 5 and 5 ' are the holding devices for the hose. The side-hose with the water nozzles is just like in the Norwegian patent no. 1 8 246 taken out sideways through openings in the side 1 on the reel, rolled up there and pressed down in the clearings 6 in the holding devices 5 and 5'. On fig. 2 and 3 it can be seen that the hold¬ ing devices 5 and 5 * have longitudinally ribs 7 in which there are clearings 6. On the top of the divices 5 and 5 * the clearings 6 are narrower 8 than the other parts of the clearings so that the hose 9 as known before can be fastened in the clearings 6 after beeing pressed down in the clearings 6. On both sides of all the clearings 6 and outward on both sides of the ribs 7 there are other ribs 10 with sloping edges 11 which are sloping from the top of the ribs 7, outward to both sides and downward to the base of the divices 5 and 5'where they are fastened to the reel 1. These sloping edges 11 on the ribs 10 will act in the way that the hose 9 can be pulled in any direction and then the hose will slide on the sloping edge 11 on the rib 10 and the hose 9 will be pressed upward sliding on the edge 11 of the rib 10 and it will then be pressed out of the clearings 6. On the side 1 of the reel it can be used two or more of these holding devices 5 and 5' to keep the side-hose fastened when the hose is not used and also during the rolling-out of the hose.

Claims: Patent claim. Holding device for a side-hose (9) on a hose reel (1,2, 3,4) for fire extinguishing purposes or the like where the main part of the fire hose which by preference is a half stiff rubber hose is rolled up on the reel itself and the foremost part of the hose (9) with the water nozzle is taken out on the side (1) of the reel, rolled up there and pressed down in clearings (6) in the hold ' .- ing devices (5,5') C H A R A CT E R I Z E D W I T H T H A T on both sides of the clearings (6) in the holding devices (5,5') are sloping edges (11) which are sloping from the longitudinally ribs (7) downward and outward against that side of the reel (1) where the side-hose (9) is rolled up and the holding devices (5,5') are fastened.
