Abstract

This invention relates to a fire hose for drones, suitable for buildings up to 300 meters high and capable of withstanding working pressures of over 100 kgf / cm². It comprises: an inner tube layer made of thermoplastic polyester elastomer; a reinforcing layer covering the outer side of the inner tube layer, made of polyester fiber; and an outer protective layer covering the outer side of the reinforcing layer, made of isocyanate polyurethane. The drone-borne fire hose is carried aloft by a drone to deliver fire-fighting water to high-altitude disaster relief locations. When the drone-borne fire hose is 100 meters long and filled with fire-fighting water, its total weight is less than 15 kg; when the drone-borne fire hose is 200 meters long and filled with fire-fighting water, its total weight is less than 30 kg.

Claims

1. A fire hose for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), suitable for buildings up to 300 meters high and capable of withstanding working pressures of 100 kgf / cm² or higher, comprising: an inner tube layer made of thermoplastic polyester elastomer; a reinforcing layer covering the outer side of the inner tube layer, the reinforcing layer being made of polyester fiber; and an outer sheath covering the outer side of the reinforcing layer, the outer sheath being made of isocyanate polyurethane; wherein... The drone-borne fire hose is carried aloft by a drone and delivers fire water to a high-altitude disaster relief location. Specifically, when the length of the drone-borne fire hose is 100 meters and it is filled with fire water, the total weight of the drone-borne fire hose is less than 15 kilograms, or when the length of the drone-borne fire hose is 200 meters and it is filled with fire water, the total weight of the drone-borne fire hose is less than 30 kilograms.

2. The fire hose for unmanned aerial vehicles as described in claim 1, wherein, The diameter of the fire hose used by the drone is 1 / 8 inch to 1 / 4 inch.

3. The fire hose for unmanned aerial vehicles as described in claim 2, wherein, When the diameter of the fire hose used by the drone is 1 / 4 inch, its burst pressure is greater than 550 kgf / cm² under a working pressure of 100 kgf / cm², and when its delivery distance reaches 200 meters, its terminal water pressure can be maintained at least 45 kgf / cm², and the optimal water pressure is above 55 kgf / cm².

4. The fire hose for unmanned aerial vehicles as described in claim 2, wherein, When the diameter of the fire hose used by the drone is 1 / 8 inch, its burst pressure is greater than 1000 kgf / cm² under a working pressure of 100 kgf / cm².

5. The fire hose for unmanned aerial vehicles as described in claim 1, wherein, It is also provided with two clamps, a first adapter and a second adapter. The two clamps are respectively assembled with both ends of the fire hose for the UAV, and the first adapter and the second adapter are respectively assembled with the corresponding clamps.

6. The fire hose for unmanned aerial vehicles as described in claim 5, wherein, Each of the two clamps further has a locking part and a plurality of fixing members. When the first adapter and the second adapter are respectively assembled with the corresponding clamps, each fixing member passes through the first adapter or the second adapter and is locked with the corresponding locking part.

7. The fire hose for unmanned aerial vehicles as described in claim 5, wherein, A water source and a spray bar assembly are also provided. The end of the first adapter that is not assembled with the corresponding clamp is movably connected to the water source, and the end of the second adapter that is not assembled with the corresponding clamp is movably connected to the spray bar assembly.

8. The fire hose for unmanned aerial vehicles as described in claim 7, wherein, A separate nozzle assembly is provided, which is movably assembled with the end of the spray boom assembly that is not connected to the second adapter. Furthermore, the end of the nozzle assembly that is not connected to the spray boom assembly has a plurality of fan-shaped nozzles, each of which has a flow rate of 2 liters or more per minute, and the fire-fighting water sprayed by each fan-shaped nozzle has a spraying distance of 5 meters or more from each fan-shaped nozzle.

9. The fire hose for unmanned aerial vehicles as described in claim 7, wherein, The spray boom assembly further includes a switching valve for opening or closing the connection between the spray boom assembly and the second adapter, the two clamps, the first adapter, the UAV fire hose, and the water source.

10. The fire hose for unmanned aerial vehicles as described in claim 7, wherein, The spray boom assembly further includes a pressure gauge used to measure the pressure of the fire-fighting water within the spray boom assembly.
