Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of fire fighting, in particular to a fire hose. BACKGROUND
[0002] Fire hose is a flexible pipe used to transport high-pressure water or foam fire-retardant liquid. The traditional fire hose is lined with rubber and wrapped with linen braid. Advanced fire hose is made of polyurethane and other polymer materials. Both ends of the fire hose have metal connectors, which can be connected to another hose to extend the distance or connected to a nozzle to increase the liquid injection pressure. When the two ends of the fire hose are connected, the locking tongues of the two metal heads need to be aligned and inserted, and then need to be tightened clockwise to be completely connected. During connection, the connection may not be tight, and after connection, if not paid attention to use, the rotation of the connection head may cause the connection head to separate, and when separated after use, the two connection heads need to be held and then rotated counterclockwise, which is complicated to operate. SUMMARY
[0003] The purpose of the present application is to design a fire hose to solve the above problems.
[0004] The present application achieves the above-mentioned purpose by the following technical solutions:
[0005] A fire hose, comprising at least two groups of fire hoses, each group of fire hoses comprising:
[0006] a water pipe belt;
[0007] a first connector; the first end of the first connector is fixedly connected to the first end of the water pipe belt;
[0008] a second connector; the first end of the second connector is fixedly connected to the second end of the water pipe belt;
[0009] at least two connecting assemblies, the connecting assemblies being used for connecting and fixing the first connector and the second connector of the adjacent two water pipe belts, each connecting assembly comprising a locking tongue, a locking channel, a detachable guide plate and a rubber strip, the first end of the locking tongue being fixedly connected to the second end of the first connector, the locking tongue having elasticity, the locking channel being arranged at the second end of the second connector, the guide plate being installed at the first end of the locking channel, and the rubber strip being fixedly installed at the first end of the locking channel, when the adjacent two groups of fire hoses are connected, the guide plate being used for guiding the locking tongue to be inserted into the locking channel, the second end of the locking tongue being in contact with the guide plate and the rubber strip on both sides, and the included angle between the second end of the locking tongue and the central axis of the second connector being greater than zero.
[0010] The beneficial effect of the present application is that: through the structural design of the connecting assembly, when connecting the adjacent two groups of fire hoses, only the locking tongue of the first connecting head is inserted into the locking channel of the second connecting head, which is simple to operate, and since the second end of the locking tongue is in extrusion contact with the guide plate and the rubber strip on both sides when the adjacent two groups of fire hoses are connected, and the included angle between the second end of the locking tongue and the center axis of the second connecting head is greater than zero, there is no problem of two hoses being separated due to rotation out of position of the traditional fire hose.

One disassembly part is installed in one disassembly channel 9. The guide plate is a leaf spring 10. The leaf spring 10 has an arc-shaped structure. The elastic force at both ends of the leaf spring 10 is always directed away from the center of the leaf spring 10. The disassembly ends of one disassembly part act on the first ends of the two leaf springs 10 respectively. When disassembling the leaf spring 10, the force generated by the disassembly end on the leaf spring 10 is opposite to the direction of the elastic force.
[0034] The arc of the leaf spring 10 is no greater than 180°, and the elastic modulus of the leaf spring 10 is greater than the elastic modulus of the locking tongue 4.
[0035] Each fire hose set also includes a disassembly push ring 11, which is provided with a pushing channel 12. The outer side wall of the disassembly push ring 11 is inclined, and the outer side wall of the second connector 3 is provided with a support step. A first spring is fixedly installed on the inner side wall of the disassembly push ring 11, and the other end of the first spring is in contact with the support step. The first spring is a compression spring, and the spring force of the first spring on the disassembly push ring 11 is directed away from the first connector 2. Each disassembly component includes:
[0036] Two dismounting rods 13 are installed in the dismounting channel 9, and the first ends of the two dismounting rods 13 are in extrusion contact with one end of the two leaf springs 10 respectively.
[0037] A pushing rod 14 is provided with a pushing rod 15 at the first end, and the pushing rod 14 is movably installed in the mounting hole of the second connecting head 3, and the first end and the second end of the pushing rod 14 are located in the dismounting channel 9 of the second connecting head 3 and outside the second connecting head 3 respectively, and the second ends of the two dismounting rods are in extrusion contact with the side surface of the pushing rod 15 of the pushing rod 14.

[0040] The first spring, the supporting step and the compression spring are not shown in the figure.
[0041] The working principle of the fire hose is as follows:
[0042] When the fire hose needs to be used, the lock tongue 4 of the first connecting head 2 of the water pipe belt 1 is aligned with the lock channel 5 of the second connecting head 3 of the adjacent water pipe belt 1, and then is inserted into the lock channel 5, when the lock tongue 4 is in contact with the leaf spring 10, the second end of the lock tongue 4 is deformed and bent towards both sides under the action of the spring leaf, when the insertion is in place, the second end of the lock tongue 4 is located between the leaf spring 10 and the rubber strip 7, and the second end of the lock tongue 4 is in extrusion contact with the leaf spring 10 and the rubber strip 7 on both sides respectively, and the anti-skid teeth 8 are extruded to deform the rubber strip 7, as shown in Figure 5 The installed fire hose is tightly connected by the rubber strip 7, the lock tongue 4, the anti-skid teeth 8 and the leaf spring 10, and the connection operation is simple, which is more in line with the requirements of simple and rapid connection of the fire hose.
[0043] After the use is completed, the disassembling push ring 11 is applied to the first connector 2, so that the disassembling push ring 11 is moved towards the first connector 2, and the first spring is further compressed to store energy, the limiting plate 16 loses the action force of the disassembling push ring 11 towards the direction away from the central axis of the second connector 3, under the compression of the spring, the limiting plate 16 and the push rod 14 are moved towards the direction close to the central axis of the second connector 3, the push rod 15 extrudes the two disassembling rods 13 to move towards the direction close to the sheet spring 10, the two ends of the sheet spring 10 are extruded and deformed to the middle, the distance between the sheet spring 10 and the rubber strip 7 is increased, and the extrusion force between the lock tongue 4 and the sheet spring 10 is reduced, at this time, the second end of the lock tongue 4 is restored to the elastic deformation, and the tension spring is restored to the elastic deformation, so that the two ends of the second end of the lock tongue 4 are folded to the middle, at this time, the first connector 2 can be moved.
[0044] After the two groups of fire-fighting belts are separated, the disassembling push ring 11 is removed to the first connector 2, the disassembling push ring 11 is moved towards the water pipe belt 1 under the action of the first spring, and the disassembling rod 13 is moved away from the sheet spring 10 under the action of the elastic deformation of the sheet spring 10, the limiting plate 16 and the push rod 14 are moved away from the central axis of the second connector 3 under the action of the disassembling push ring 11 and the disassembling rod 13, and the second connector 3 is restored to the state before use.
[0045] The technical scheme of the present application is not limited to the above specific embodiments, and any technical deformation according to the technical scheme of the present application falls within the protection scope of the present application.
