Definitions

• a device for a fire extinguishing hose reel is provided.
• the purpose of this invention is to lay out a fire hose and on every point of time be able to use the nozzle in all directions without using expensive and complicated devices for the supply of water tc the hose through the nave of the reel or the like.
• This construction has many possibilities for leakages.
• the nave rotates on the hollow axle and the packings at both ends of the nave can become leaky.
• the rotation of the reel must be braked so that no uncontrolled rolling out of the hose can occur and therefore the rolling out of the fire hose when it shal be used will also be braked.
• this construction will be very heavy and therefore the devices carrilng the reel must be very strong and heavy.
• the hose must also be fastened to aniple on the nave of the reel. This will cause a sharp bend on the hose and it will very soon be damaged there unless it is taken special measures for example putting in an helical sa
• the Swedish patent no. 154 163 describes a construction where the first part of the hose with the nozzle has been drawn through a hole in the cylinder lining on which the other part of the hose is rolled up. Then the first part of the hose is coiled up inside the said cylinder lining and the nozzle is fastened en the side of the reel.
• the nozzle will turn round just as many times as there are coils in the cylinder lining which undoubtedly will cause "cracks" on the rubber hose which again will stop the water supply and the hose will also fasten on the edges.
• the nozzle is fastened en the side of the reel. This will increase the width of the construction and make the boxes in which the fire hoses are kept wider and that will be a very big drawback in a building. To avoid this the nozzle can be put into the center of the coils, but as the nozzle with its hose niple is of rather big length one will allways have a "crack" on the hose there and that will in due time cause a fracture on it.
• the intention of this invention is in a simple way to lay out a fire hose and on any place during the layout be able to move the nozzle and a part of the hose freely in all directions without using complicated devices as described.
• fig.1 is shown a cross section of a reel and fig.2 shows the same reel seen from above.
• Fig.3 shows a cross section of another reel and fig. 4 that reel seen from the left.
• Fig.5 shows how the hose is rolled out.
• FIG. 1 and 2 there are two cross-shaped sides 1 and 2 on the reel 24.
• the sides are held together by a cylindrical navepiate 3 which is fastened to the sides 1 and 2 and the whole construction rotates on an axle 4 which has a prolongation with a loop or the like 5 which can be used for hanging the reel on awall or the reel can be carried by It while one is running against the fire and the reel revolves leting the hose, which is rolled up between the sides 1 and 2 , out.
• On the outside of the side 1 there are taps 7 and the distance between each pair of them is smaller at the top of them than at the bottom near the side 1 in such a way that the hose 6 can be pressed down between each pair of taps 7 so that it can be held firmly against the side 1.
• the hose 6 is put down between two arms of the side 1 inmost at the naveplate
• the coupling 9 can be coupled to the water supply pipe.
• the taps 7 elastical, they may be made rigid and with a distance between them so that the walls of the hose 6 are pressed together.
• the water cock is opened and the reel is carried along while the hose rols of. Near the fire the reel Is laid down and the hose 6' which is fastened between the taps 7 on the side of the reel is taken up and the nozzle can then be moved freely in all directions at a maximum distance like the length of the hose 6'.
• the figures 3 and 4 are showing a construction of the reel 25 which by preference is used for greater dimensions of hoses.
• the end of the hose 6 which is fast ened to the water supply 20 is rolled up on a cylind rical naveplate 16 between spokes 11 with rings 10 and 10' fastened to them. Near the center the spokes 11 are fastened to a tube 12 which revolves on an axle 13. This axle is fastened to a plate 14 and on the top of it a handle protruding inward over the reel is fastened.
• the naveplate 16 one part 6' of the hose is drawn aside between two of the spokes 11 and is rolled up from the navenlate 16 and outward.
• the nozzle 8 is fastened and in order to keep the hose 6' with the nozzle 8 fastened to the side of the reel an elastic cross-shaped part 17 is fastened to the ring 10'.
• an elastic part 18 is bent inward and then again outward 19 thereby holding the part 17 firmly against the side of the reel 25 with the hose 6' between.
• This reel is used in just the same way as described before and shown in fig. 5.
• this part is taken of the reel and the nozzle can be used as described.
