Patent ID: 8881436

Claim:
A composite hose comprising a tubular body of flexible material for transfer of cryogenic fluid through the hose and to prevent fluid leakage through the body, the tubular body comprising; an inner wire helix spirally wound along the length of the hose, an outer wire helix spirally wound along the length of the hose, at least two reinforcing layers placed in between the inner and outer wire, at least one sealing layer placed between two reinforcing layers, and an end fitting at both ends of the tubular body, each end fitting provided with a part for connection to another hose and an elongated cylindrical part, the cylindrical part divided in an anchoring area for anchoring the tubular body and a static sealing area for fluid tight sealing of the hose, wherein a gas tight sealing is created by a bond bonding the at least one sealing layer to the cylindrical part over a ring shaped bonding area, wherein an outer wire pack is placed over the outer wire to apply a radial compression force on the outer wire in the sealing area of the cylindrical part, and wherein a deformable metal sheet or ferrule is placed between the outer wire and the outer wire pack.
