Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of conveying equipment, in particular to a luminous water belt and a conveying system. Background Art

[0002] Water hose is a common conveying tool, which is widely used in the fields of agricultural irrigation, fire fighting, cleaning, construction, etc. In some special occasions or special fields, the water hose is not only required to have a conveying function, but also to have a function of indicating direction or facilitating mutual distinction. The prior art discloses some luminous water hoses, for example, a fire hose disclosed in Chinese patent CN217502891 U, a luminous fire hose disclosed in Chinese patent CN218076119 U, and a fire hose disclosed in Chinese patent CN218076120U, etc. These water hoses are equipped with luminous guide lines, which have both a conveying function and can use the luminous guide lines to indicate direction or facilitate mutual distinction. These luminous water hoses can be applied to the field of fire fighting, because in the field of fire fighting, the fire scene is usually harsh and complex, and firefighters and escapees are easy to lose their way. It is necessary to provide route guidance for on-site personnel so that personnel can quickly leave in the direction of the route guidance, which is conducive to improving the transfer efficiency of personnel; if the above-mentioned luminous water hose is used, firefighters can simultaneously complete the construction of route guidance by laying pipelines on site, which is very fast and efficient. Of course, these luminous water hoses can also be widely used in agricultural irrigation, construction and other fields.

[0003] The structures of existing water hoses are diverse, but they usually include a lining and a braided layer arranged on the outside of the lining. The lining encloses a conveying channel, which is used to convey materials such as liquids, foams, slurries, gases, solid particles, and solid powders. The braided layer is used to protect the lining and to improve the strength and wear resistance of the water hose. In existing luminous water hoses, the luminous guide line can be an LED light strip or a cold light strip, etc.; during implementation, the luminous guide line can usually be arranged in the conveying channel or embedded in the lining, but the lining will greatly reduce the brightness of the luminous guide line. Therefore, a preferred embodiment is to arrange the luminous guide line between the lining and the braided layer. However, for high-pressure water hoses, at least two layers of braided layers are usually arranged outside the lining. Multiple braided layers will also cause a larger area of ​​​​blocking to the luminous guide line, which is not conducive to improving the brightness of the luminous water hose. In order to further improve the luminous effect of the water hose, in another preferred embodiment, for example, in the water hose disclosed in Chinese patent CN217502891 U, the luminous guide line is directly woven into the woven layer of the water hose as a warp or a weft, so that the luminous effect of the luminous guide line is not affected by the lining, and the shielding area of ​​the woven layer can also be reduced, which is conducive to the higher brightness of the water hose. However, in actual applications, it is found that: in the process of weaving the woven layer using a weaving device, the warp and weft need to be tensioned by the weaving device, and this process is very easy to damage or even break the luminous guide line, and in the woven layer after the weaving is completed, the warp and weft need to maintain a certain pre-tightening force, so that the luminous guide line as the warp or weft is always in a pre-tightened state, which will not only greatly reduce the service life of the luminous guide line, but also in the actual use process in the later stage, the luminous guide line is also very easy to break due to bending or bumping (especially when the luminous guide line adopts an LED light strip), which greatly reduces the reliability of the luminous water hose; in addition, weaving the luminous guide line into the woven layer also has the problems of high process difficulty and high cost, which need to be solved urgently. Summary of the invention

[0004] The first aspect of the utility model is to solve the above technical problems and provide a water hose with better luminous effect, which is not only simpler in manufacturing process, but also longer in service life and more reliable. The main concept is:

[0005] A luminous water hose comprises a lining surrounding a conveying channel, the outer side of the lining is provided with at least two braided layers, and a luminous guide line, the luminous guide line is sandwiched between two adjacent braided layers and arranged along the length direction of the conveying channel. In this scheme, by providing at least two braided layers on the outer side of the lining, the water hose has a higher pressure resistance and can meet the conveying requirements of higher pressure; by sandwiching the luminous guide line between two adjacent braided layers, the luminous guide line is located on the outer side of at least one braided layer, which is conducive to reducing the shielding of the luminous guide line by the braided layer, thereby facilitating the improvement of the brightness of the luminous water hose; in addition, by adopting this design, in the first aspect, the forming process of the water hose does not need to use a braiding device to weave the luminous guide line, nor does it need to use a braiding device to tension the luminous guide line. It only needs to sandwich the luminous guide line between two adjacent braided layers, thereby making the forming process of the water hose simpler and significantly reducing the cost. At the same time, the forming process will not damage the luminous guide line, which is conducive to ensuring or even improving the service life of the luminous guide line. Secondly, since the luminous guide wire is sandwiched between two adjacent woven layers, after the hose is formed, the luminous guide wire has no pre-tightening force along its length, which can greatly improve the stress of the luminous guide wire, which is not only conducive to increasing the service life of the luminous guide wire, but also the luminous guide wire is not easy to break due to bending or bumping, which is conducive to improving the reliability of the luminous hose. Thirdly, since the luminous guide wire is sandwiched between two adjacent woven layers, the luminous guide wire does not need to be strictly arranged along the direction of the warp or weft, which makes the arrangement of the luminous guide wire more flexible, and can form a straight line or arbitrary bending effect in the hose to achieve different luminous effects and better meet market demand.

[0006] In order to achieve the best luminous effect, the luminous guide wire is further sandwiched between the outermost braided layer and the second outer braided layer, which is not only conducive to simplifying the production and assembly process, but also can minimize the shielding of the luminous guide wire by the braided layer, which is conducive to achieving a better luminous effect of the water hose.

[0007] Preferably, the braided layer comprises warp threads and weft threads that are woven together to form a dense braided layer.

[0008] In order to prevent the position and shape of the luminous guide line from changing during use, the luminous guide line is further attached to the braided layer by adhesive. In this solution, the luminous guide line can be attached to one or two adjacent braided layers by adhesive, which can not only effectively fix the luminous guide line during the forming process of the water hose so as to cover the braided layer, thereby simplifying the processing and assembly process of the water hose, but also can more stably and reliably constrain the luminous guide line, effectively preventing the position and shape of the luminous guide line from changing during use, making the product structure more stable and reliable.

[0009] Preferably, the luminous guide line is arranged in a straight line or in a spiral along the length direction of the lining, so as to form a luminous guide line arranged along the length direction of the water hose, thereby achieving a better route guidance effect.

[0010] Preferably, the luminous guide line adopts an LED light strip or cold light to achieve a better luminous effect.

[0011] Furthermore, at least two luminous guide lines are included. Multiple luminous guide lines can enhance the luminous brightness, and the luminous colors of each luminous guide line can be configured to be different, and the positions of each luminous guide line can be configured to be different, so that a more eye-catching and uniform luminous effect can be achieved in all directions along the water hose, and the different laying directions of the water hose can be avoided. The different environmental factors can also avoid affecting the indication effect.

[0012] To solve the problem of on-site implementation, preferably, the color of the light emitted by the light-emitting guide line is green or yellow. Preliminary experiments have found that green and yellow lights have stronger penetration in the white and black smoke at the fire scene, making them easier to be found, thus being more conducive to guiding the direction at the scene.

[0013] Furthermore, the wavelength of light emitted by the luminous guide line is 510nm-530nm or 585-591nm. In the white smoke and black smoke at the fire scene, the light emitted by the luminous guide line has stronger penetration and is easier to be seen by personnel, thus being more conducive to guiding the direction at the scene.

[0014] The second aspect of the utility model aims to solve the problem that when the light-emitting guide line adopts a traditional LED light strip, it has a large width, is not convenient for flexible arrangement, and the flexible circuit board in the LED light strip is easy to break under the action of internal water pressure. Furthermore, the light-emitting guide line includes a first conductive wire for conduction, a second conductive wire for conduction, and at least two lamp beads. The first conductive wire and the second conductive wire are arranged in parallel, and each lamp bead is respectively connected in parallel and / or in series with the first conductive wire and the second conductive wire. In the present scheme, two first conductive wires and second conductive wires arranged in parallel are used to replace the flexible circuit board in the existing luminous water hose, which not only makes the water hose have the function of luminescence and can serve as a route indicator on site, but also the conductive wire has a certain elasticity along its length direction. The existing conductive wire is a linear structure with good flexibility and can be bent and deformed arbitrarily in any direction. In this way, on the one hand, the entire luminous guide line has good ductility and elasticity, and is not easy to break due to the expansion of the water hose under the action of internal pressure, ensuring that the water hose can always be used normally and significantly improving the service life and reliability; on the other hand, the luminous guide line is more flexible and can be bent and deformed arbitrarily, which not only makes the process of integrating the luminous guide line in the water hose simpler, but also makes the arrangement of the luminous guide line in the water hose more flexible and convenient, which is conducive to reducing the cost of the luminous water hose, reducing the difficulty of manufacturing the luminous water hose, and enriching the product structure of the luminous water hose.

[0015] Preferably, the first conductive wire and the second conductive wire are both insulating wires, which include a conductive wire core and an insulating layer wrapping the conductive wire core; the lamp bead is connected to the conductive wire core. This solution uses insulating wires to replace the existing flexible circuit board, so that the entire luminous guide line has better elasticity and good adhesion, which can ensure the strength and service life of the water hose, and improve the performance of the luminous water hose in terms of service life, stability, and reliability.

[0016] Preferably, the conductive wire core is made of copper wire or aluminum wire; and the insulating layer is made of a plastic layer or an insulating paint layer.

[0017] Preferably, the lamp beads are LED lamp beads.

[0018] Preferably, in the same luminous guide line, the distance between two adjacent lamp beads is 2 mm to 2000 mm, so as to ensure that the water hose can emit light more evenly and continuously, which is conducive to achieving a better guiding effect.

[0019] Preferably, in the light-emitting guide wire, one end of the first conductive wire and the same end of the second conductive wire are respectively used to connect to the power supply, and the other ends of the first conductive wire and the second conductive wire are respectively configured to be insulated. Not only is the structure simple, but also the assembly is convenient.

[0020] The third aspect of the utility model aims to solve the problem of achieving a better route guidance effect. Further, it includes at least one group of luminous guide lines, each group of luminous guide lines includes two luminous guide lines. At one end of the water hose, the first conductive lines of the two luminous guide lines are connected, and the second conductive lines of the two luminous guide lines are connected; at the other end of the water hose, the first conductive line of one of the luminous guide lines is used to connect to the power supply, and the end of the second conductive line of the luminous guide line is configured to be insulated, and the second conductive line of the other luminous guide line is used to connect to the power supply, and the end of the first conductive line of the luminous guide line is configured to be insulated. With such a design, when the water hose is powered on and illuminated, the resistance between each lamp bead and the power supply is basically the same, so that the brightness of each lamp bead can be basically the same, so that the luminous guide line can emit light evenly along the length direction of the water hose body, achieving a better route guidance effect.

[0021] Preferably, the two light-emitting guide lines in each group of light-emitting guide lines are arranged opposite to each other; along the length direction of the water hose, the lamp beads in the same light-emitting guide line are arranged at equal intervals, and the lamp beads in different light-emitting guide lines are arranged at equal intervals. Not only can a more uniform light-emitting effect be achieved, but the light is not easily blocked, so that a more eye-catching light-emitting effect can be achieved in all directions along the water hose, which can avoid the different laying directions of the water hose affecting the indication effect, and can also avoid the different environmental factors affecting the indication effect.

[0022] A conveying system comprises a water hose joint and the water hose.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the luminous water hose and conveying system provided by the utility model, in which the luminous guide wire is sandwiched between two adjacent braided layers, on the one hand, the forming process of the water hose does not need to use a braiding device to weave the luminous guide wire, nor does it need to use a braiding device to tension the luminous guide wire, which will not damage the luminous guide wire, which is conducive to ensuring the service life of the luminous guide wire, and can simplify the forming process of the water hose and reduce costs; on the other hand, after the luminous water hose is formed, the luminous guide wire has no pre-tightening force along its length direction, which can greatly improve the stress condition of the luminous guide wire, which is not only conducive to improving the service life of the luminous guide wire, but also the luminous guide wire is not easy to break due to bending or bumping, which is conducive to improving the reliability of the luminous water hose. In addition, the arrangement of the luminous guide wire is more flexible, and a straight line or arbitrary bending effect can be formed in the water hose to achieve different luminous effects and better meet market demand.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0038] The technical scheme in the embodiment of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiment of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiment is only a part of the embodiment of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments. The components of the embodiment of the utility model generally described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiment of the utility model provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the utility model claimed for protection, but merely represents the selected embodiment of the utility model. Based on the embodiment of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative work belong to the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0039] Example 1

[0040] This embodiment provides a luminous water hose, including a lining 11, a luminous guide line 2, and at least two braided layers 12 sleeved on the outside of the lining 11, wherein:

[0041] The lining 11 can adopt the structure and material of the lining 11 in the existing water hose. The lining 11 is mainly used to enclose a conveying channel 13 for conveying operations, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the conveying channel 13 runs through both ends of the water hose so that liquids (such as water, oil), foam, slurry, gas, solid particles and solid powder, etc. can be conveyed through the conveying channel 13. Especially in the field of fire fighting, the conveying channel 13 is mainly used to transport flame-retardant liquids such as high-pressure water or foam to extinguish fires.

[0042] The purpose of the braided layer 12 is to improve the wear resistance and load-bearing capacity of the main body and protect the inner lining 11, so as to make the hose more durable. In practice, the braided layer 12 may include warps 121 and wefts 122 woven together, and a dense or hollow braided layer 12 is formed by weaving the warps 121 and wefts 122. In this embodiment, at least two braided layers 12 are provided on the outside of the lining 11, such as Figure 1As shown, in implementation, the number of braided layers 12 can be determined according to actual needs. For example, two braided layers 12, three braided layers 12 or four braided layers 12 can be configured to meet the delivery needs of different occasions and higher delivery pressures. For ease of description, in implementation, the outermost braided layer 12 can be called the outermost braided layer 12, the braided layer 12 adjacent to it can be called the second outer braided layer 12, and the braided layer 12 adjacent to the lining 11 can be called the innermost braided layer 12.

[0043] The hose provided in this embodiment can be bent and curled for laying and storage in the subsequent use process. In this embodiment, the portion between the braided layer 12 and the conveying channel 13 is collectively referred to as the lining 11, and the lining 11 can be a single-layer structure, a double-layer structure, or even a multi-layer structure, which will not be described in detail below.

[0044] In this embodiment, the luminous guide line 2 is sandwiched between two adjacent braided layers 12, so that the luminous guide line 2 is located outside at least one braided layer 12, which is beneficial to reduce the shielding of the luminous guide line 2 by the braided layer 12, thereby facilitating the improvement of the brightness of the luminous water hose. For example, in this embodiment, the luminous guide line 2 can be preferentially sandwiched between the outermost braided layer 12 and the second outermost braided layer 12, such as Figure 1 As shown, it is not only helpful to simplify the production and assembly process, but also can minimize the shielding of the luminous guide line 2 by the braided layer 12, which is helpful for the water hose to achieve a better luminous effect.

[0045] In this embodiment, the luminous guide line 2 is arranged along the length direction of the conveying channel 13 (or the lining 11), such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, it can be understood that the arrangement along the length direction of the conveying channel 13 means that the luminous guide line 2 is arranged and illuminated along the length direction of the conveying channel 13 as a whole, including all technical solutions in which the luminous guide line 2 extends from one end of the water hose to the other end. For example, the luminous guide line 2 can be arranged in a straight line along the length direction of the water hose, such as Figure 2 As shown, the luminous guide line 2 can also be arranged in a spiral along the length direction of the water hose, such as Figure 3 In practice, the arrangement of the luminous guide line 2 in a straight line along the length of the water hose, the arrangement of the luminous guide line 2 in a spiral along the length of the water hose, etc. can be understood as the arrangement of the luminous guide line 2 along the length of the conveying channel 13, which will not be repeated in the following text.

[0046] During implementation, the luminous guide line 2 may preferably use LED light strips or cold light strips (EL cold light strips) to achieve a better luminous effect. During implementation, the number of luminous guide lines 2 may be determined according to actual needs, and one, two, three, etc. luminous guide lines 2 may be configured to achieve a better indication effect. In a preferred embodiment, the water hose may be configured with at least two luminous guide lines 2, which can not only enhance the luminous brightness through multiple luminous guide lines 2, but also configure the luminous colors of each luminous guide line 2 to be different, and also configure the positions of each luminous guide line 2 to be different, so that a more eye-catching and uniform luminous effect can be achieved in all directions along the water hose, which can avoid the different laying directions of the water hose affecting the indication effect, and can also avoid the different environmental factors affecting the indication effect. As an example, the water hose is configured with two luminous guide lines 2, such as Fig.10 As shown, the two luminous guide lines 2 are arranged opposite to each other, so that after the water hose is laid on the ground, there is always a luminous guide line 2 above the water hose, which can achieve a more eye-catching luminous effect and effectively avoid the problem of the luminous guide line 2 being blocked by the ground.

[0047] During implementation, the color of the luminous guide line 2 can be determined according to actual needs. In this implementation, the luminous color of the luminous guide line 2 can be preferably green or yellow, because green and yellow light have stronger penetration in the white smoke and black smoke at the fire scene, and are easier to be found, which is more conducive to guiding the direction at the scene. Furthermore, the wavelength of the light emitted by the luminous guide line 2 can be preferentially controlled to be 510nm-530nm, 585-591nm, 619-629nm and 440-460nm, wherein, especially when the wavelength of light is controlled to be 510nm-530nm and 585-591nm, the light emitted by the luminous guide line 2 has stronger penetration in the white smoke and black smoke at the fire scene, and is easier to be seen by personnel, which is more conducive to guiding the direction at the scene. When at least two luminous guide lines 2 are configured, the luminous colors of each luminous guide line 2 can be different. Of course, they can also be the same.

[0048] During implementation, the luminous guide line 2 can be adhered to the braided layer 12 by means of an adhesive. For example, the luminous guide line 2 can be adhered to one or two adjacent braided layers 12 by means of an adhesive. This can not only effectively fix the luminous guide line 2 during the molding process of the water hose so as to fit the braided layer 12, thereby helping to simplify the processing and assembly process of the water hose, but also more stably and securely constrain the luminous guide line 2, effectively preventing the position and shape of the luminous guide line 2 from changing during use, thereby making the product structure more stable and reliable.

[0049] As an example, for a luminous water hose with a double-layer braided layer 12, during actual manufacturing, the lining 11, the inner braided layer 12 and the outer braided layer 12 can be manufactured separately first, and then the inner braided layer 12 can be sleeved on the lining 11, and then water vapor, hot air or hot water and other heat media can be infused into the conveying channel 13 of the lining 11, and the heat medium can be used to apply pressure and temperature to the lining 11, and the pressure direction is distributed along the radial direction of the conveying channel 13. Under the dual effects of pressure and temperature, the lining 11 is driven to expand so as to connect the lining 11 with the inner braided layer 12; then the luminous guide line 2 can be placed on the surface of the inner braided layer 12 according to the preset position and shape, and can be fixed with an adhesive; finally, the outer braided layer 12 is sleeved on the outside of the inner braided layer 12, so that the luminous guide line 2 can be sandwiched between the inner braided layer 12 and the outer braided layer 12, which is very simple, convenient and efficient.

[0050] In this embodiment, by sandwiching the luminous guide line 2 between two adjacent braided layers 12, not only can the outer braided layer 12 be used to effectively protect the luminous guide line 2, but the luminous guide line 2 does not need to be strictly arranged along the direction of the warp 121 or the weft 122, so that the arrangement of the luminous guide line 2 is more flexible, and a straight line or an arbitrary bend effect can be formed in the water hose to achieve different luminous effects and better meet market demand. More importantly, using the luminous water hose provided by this embodiment, on the one hand, the manufacturing process of the water hose does not need to use a weaving device (such as a circular loom) to weave the luminous guide line 2, nor does it need to use a weaving device to tension the luminous guide line 2. It only needs to sandwich the luminous guide line 2 between two adjacent braided layers 12, so that the manufacturing process of the water hose will not damage the luminous guide line 2, which is conducive to ensuring or even improving the service life of the luminous guide line 2. On the other hand, after the water hose is manufactured, the luminous guide line 2 has no pre-tightening force along its length direction, which can greatly improve the stress condition of the luminous guide line 2, not only helping to increase the service life of the luminous guide line 2, but also making the luminous guide line 2 less likely to break due to bending or bumping, helping to improve the reliability of the luminous water hose.

[0051] Example 2

[0052] In the prior art, the luminous guide line 2 in the water hose usually adopts a traditional LED light strip, and the LED light strip usually includes a flexible circuit board and LED lamp beads 23 arranged on the flexible circuit board. The flexible circuit board usually has a certain thickness and width, and the flexible circuit board is in the shape of a long strip, so that the entire LED light strip is in the shape of a strip. Although the flexible circuit board configured in the LED light strip is flexible, the width of the flexible circuit board is large and it is not convenient to arrange it flexibly. When the water hose is actually used, the water hose will produce a certain amount of expansion and contraction under the action of the internal water pressure, but the flexible circuit board configured in the LED light strip can hardly expand and contract, resulting in the flexible circuit board in the LED light strip being very easy to break under the action of the internal water pressure, which seriously affects the reliability and service life of the water hose. In order to solve this technical problem, the main difference between this embodiment 2 and the above-mentioned embodiment 1 is that in the water hose provided in this embodiment, the luminous guide line 2 includes a first conductive wire 21 for conduction, a second conductive wire 22 for conduction, and at least two lamp beads 23, such as Figure 4-Figure 9 As shown, the first conductive wire 21 and the second conductive wire 22 are arranged in parallel, and each lamp bead 23 is respectively connected in parallel and / or in series with the first conductive wire 21 and the second conductive wire 22 to form a power supply circuit; during implementation, the lamp bead 23 is an LED lamp bead 23.

[0053] In this embodiment, two parallel arranged first conductive wires 21 and second conductive wires 22 are used to replace the flexible circuit board in the existing luminous water hose, which not only makes the water hose have the function of luminescence and can serve as a route indicator on site, but also the conductive wires have a certain elasticity along their length direction, and the existing conductive wires are linear structures with good flexibility and can be bent and deformed arbitrarily in any direction. On the first hand, the entire luminous guide line 2 has good ductility and elasticity, and is not prone to breakage due to the expansion of the water hose under the action of internal pressure, ensuring that the water hose can always be used normally and significantly improving its service life and reliability; on the second hand, the luminous guide line 2 is more flexible and can be bent and deformed arbitrarily, which not only makes the process of integrating the luminous guide line 2 in the water hose simpler, but also makes the arrangement of the luminous guide line 2 in the water hose more flexible and convenient, which is conducive to reducing the cost of the luminous water hose and reducing the difficulty of manufacturing the luminous water hose.

[0054] In this embodiment, the first conductive wire 21 and the second conductive wire 22 can both use existing insulating wires, so that the entire luminous guide wire 2 has better elasticity and good adhesion, which can ensure the strength and service life of the water hose. At this time, the first conductive wire 21 includes a conductive wire core 31 and an insulating layer 32 that wraps the conductive wire core 31; Figure 6As shown, similarly, the second conductive wire 22 also includes a conductive core 31 and an insulating layer 32 that wraps the conductive core 31. The conductive core 31 is used for conducting electricity, and the lamp bead 23 is connected to the conductive core 31. In implementation, the conductive core 31 can be made of copper wire or aluminum wire or silver-nickel alloy wire or brass alloy wire or stainless steel alloy wire, etc., and the conductive core 31 can include one strand or multiple strands. The insulating layer 32 mainly plays an insulating role. In implementation, the insulating layer 32 can be made of a plastic layer or an insulating paint layer or a rubber layer. For example, the first conductive wire 21 and the second conductive wire 22 can be preferably enameled wires, for example, enameled copper wire or enameled aluminum wire can be preferably used. In implementation, the diameter (or outer diameter) of the first conductive wire 21 and the second conductive wire 22 can be preferably controlled to be between 0.022-5mm, which can meet the needs of most occasions. For example, in this embodiment, the diameter of the insulating wire can be preferably 0.35mm, 0.38mm, or 0.4mm.

[0055] When both the first conductive wire 21 and the second conductive wire 22 are made of insulating wires, when manufacturing the light-emitting guide wire 2, it is necessary to first peel off part of the insulating layer 32 at the preset position on the first conductive wire 21 and the second conductive wire 22 to expose the internal conductive wire core 31, and then connect and fix the lamp bead 23 to the conductive wire core 31 by welding or other methods. Figure 6 In order to achieve a better insulation effect at the position of the lamp bead 23, after the lamp bead 23 is installed, a layer of transparent insulating glue 4 can be coated at the position where the lamp bead 23 is installed, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 As shown, using the insulating glue 4 to cover the lamp bead 23 and the exposed conductive wire core 31 will not only not affect the brightness of the lamp bead 23, but also achieve a better insulation effect.

[0056] During implementation, the number of lamp beads 23 can be determined according to actual needs, and the spacing between adjacent lamp beads 23 can also be determined according to actual needs. During implementation, the spacing between adjacent lamp beads 23 can preferably be 2mm to 2000mm to ensure that the water hose can emit light more evenly and the light emission is more continuous; more preferably, the spacing between adjacent lamp beads 23 can be 4mm to 500mm, for example, the spacing between adjacent lamp beads 23 can preferably be 5mm, 10mm, 15mm, 20mm, 30mm, 50mm, 100mm, 150mm, etc.

[0057] In implementation, at least some of the lamp beads 23 are connected in parallel to the first conductive wire 21 and the second conductive wire 22. Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, for example, each lamp bead 23 can be connected in parallel to the first conductive line 21 and the second conductive line 22; of course, in implementation, it is also allowed that some lamp beads 23 are directly connected in series to the first conductive line 21 or the second conductive line 22, such as Figure 5As shown, in addition, in other embodiments, each lamp bead 23 can be connected in series to the first conductive wire 21 or the second conductive wire 22, but this situation is rarely used. In this embodiment, the parallel arrangement refers to the first conductive wire 21 and the second conductive wire 22 being arranged in approximately the same manner and in approximately the same direction, including but not limited to parallel arrangement. The spacing between the first conductive wire 21 and the second conductive wire 22 can be adapted to install the lamp bead 23. It can be understood that in implementation, the spacing between the first conductive wire 21 and the second conductive wire 22 between two adjacent lamp beads 23 can be uniform or uneven, and some deviations are allowed. In both cases, the first conductive wire 21 and the second conductive wire 22 can be considered to be arranged in parallel.

[0058] In practice, in the light-emitting guide line 2, one end of the first conductive line 21 and the same end of the second conductive line 22 can be used to connect to a power source, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the other end of the first conductive wire 21 and the second conductive wire 22 is configured as insulation 24, which has various implementation methods. For example, insulating paint can be sprayed on the end to achieve the purpose of insulation, or insulating glue 4 can be applied on the end to achieve the purpose of insulation by using the insulating glue 4; insulating tape can also be configured on the end to achieve the purpose of insulation by using the insulating tape, etc.

[0059] It can be understood that during implementation, the luminous guide line 2 can extend from the end of the water hose to facilitate wiring, or it can pass through the braided layer 12 at a certain distance from the end of the water hose to achieve a tap effect, which is also convenient for wiring.

[0060] Example 3

[0061] According to the structure of the above-mentioned luminous guide line 2, in actual use, the resistance between each lamp bead 23 and the power supply is very different, so that along the length direction of the water hose, the lamp bead 23 close to the power supply is brighter, and the lamp bead 23 far away from the power supply is darker, resulting in uneven brightness of the luminous guide line 2 along the length direction of the water hose body. In order to solve this technical problem, the main difference between this embodiment 3 and the above-mentioned embodiment 2 is that the luminous water hose provided in this embodiment includes at least one group of luminous guide lines 2, and each group of luminous guide lines 2 includes two luminous guide lines 2. For ease of description, the two ends of the water hose are respectively a head end 14 and a tail end 15. During implementation, the first conductive wires 21 in the two luminous guide lines 2 can be connected at the end 15 of the water hose, such as Fig.10 As shown, the second conductive wires 22 in the two luminous guide wires 2 can also be connected at the end 15 of the water hose, that is, the two are connected at the same end; in implementation, the two first conductive wires 21 can be a conductive wire 25, and the two first conductive wires 21 can be directly connected or connected through an additional conductive wire 25, such as Fig.10As shown, similarly, the two second conductive wires 22 can be one conductive wire, and the two second conductive wires 22 can be directly connected or connected through an additional conductive wire. At the same time, the first conductive wire 21 in one of the luminous guide wires 2 is located at one end of the hose head end 14 for connecting to a power source, and the second conductive wire 22 in the luminous guide wire 2 is located at one end of the hose head end 14 and is configured as an insulator 24, as shown in FIG. Fig.10 As shown, correspondingly, the second conductive wire 22 in another luminous guide wire 2 is located at one end of the hose head end 14 for connecting to a power source, and the first conductive wire 21 in the luminous guide wire 2 is located at one end of the hose head end 14 and is configured as an insulator 24, as shown in FIG. Fig.10 With such a design, when the hose is powered on and illuminated, the resistance between each lamp bead 23 and the power supply can be substantially the same, so that the brightness of each lamp bead 23 can be substantially the same, so that the luminous guide line 2 can emit light uniformly along the length direction of the hose body, achieving a better route guidance effect.

[0062] In implementation, two luminous guide lines 2 in each group of luminous guide lines 2 can be arranged relative to each other, such as Fig.11 As shown, not only can a more uniform lighting effect be achieved, but also a more eye-catching and uniform lighting effect can be achieved in all directions along the water hose. The light is not easily blocked, which can avoid the different laying directions of the water hose affecting the indication effect, and can also avoid the different environmental factors affecting the indication effect.

[0063] During implementation, along the length direction of the water hose, the lamp beads 23 in the same light-emitting guide line 2 can be arranged at equal intervals, and the lamp beads 23 in different light-emitting guide lines 2 can also be arranged at equal intervals, such as Fig.10 As shown, this is conducive to more uniform lighting along the length of the water hose, achieving better line guidance effects.

[0064] Example 4

[0065] This embodiment 4 provides a conveying system, including a water hose joint 5 and the above-mentioned luminous water hose, the water hose joint 5 is configured with a power supply module, the power supply module includes a rechargeable battery 51, one end of the water hose (such as the head end 14) is connected to the water hose joint 5, and the luminous guide line 2 in the water hose is connected to the rechargeable battery 51, as shown in the figure, so that the power supply module can be used to power the luminous guide line 2 in the water hose, so that the luminous guide line 2 can continuously and stably emit light.

[0066] During implementation, the water hose connector 5 can adopt an existing connector, for example, a male connector or a female connector commonly used in the fire protection field, for example, a KDK65 type card-type fire protection connector, a KD65 type internal snap-on connector, etc., which will not be explained one by one here.

[0067] Of course, in a more complete solution, the conveying system also includes a power device for providing conveying power, and the power device can be a pump or the like.
