A hose pull back system and method
By using the building-side and drone-side devices of the hose retraction system, the hose is automatically pulled to the building window using a delivery rod and clamping mechanism, which solves the problem of the hose suspension distance of fire-fighting drones and improves the safety and efficiency of high-altitude rescue.

AI Technical Summary
The water hose carried by the fire-fighting drone was suspended in mid-air above the target window, making it impossible to connect to the fire hydrant inside the building window for water supply.
A hose retraction system is provided, including a building-side device and a drone-side device. The system utilizes a delivery rod and a clamping mechanism to achieve automatic traction and retraction of the hose. The delivery rod of the building-side device delivers a guide to the clamping mechanism of the drone-side device. The clamping mechanism receives the guide in an open state and clamps it in a closed state. Subsequently, the delivery rod retracts, driving the hose to the vicinity of the building window.
It enables the guidance and retraction of water hoses across suspended distances, reducing the risks of manual high-altitude operations and improving the safety and efficiency of fire rescue in super high-rise buildings.
