Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of hoses, and in particular to a light-transmitting luminous water hose. Background Art
[0002] When laying fire hoses at a fire scene, fire rescue personnel often need to use fire rescue lines or lighting lines, such as those in accordance with the GB26783 standard, to provide a route for escaping personnel, allowing them to quickly evacuate the fire scene along the fire rescue line or lighting line. However, the need for additional fire rescue lines and lighting lines undoubtedly consumes prime fire rescue time, hindering firefighting and rescue efforts.
[0003] The applicant in this case disclosed a luminous fire hose, a conveying assembly, and a forming process for a fire hose in a Chinese patent publication numbered CN 114849125 A. The luminous hose disclosed therein has a luminous body disposed between the braided layer and the lining, or in the lining, or the luminous body is woven into the braided layer, or the luminous body is connected to the outside of the braided layer.
[0004] During further research into this luminous hose, the applicant discovered that the light emitted by the luminaire located between the braid and lining, or within the lining, passes through the gaps between the lining or braid and the fibers of the braid. The natural materials of the braid and lining shield the luminous flux of the luminaire to a certain extent, reducing its effective illumination. While the illumination of the luminaire attached to the outside of the braid remains unaffected, it is susceptible to wear and tear due to the lack of protective structures.
[0005] Based on the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the applicant believes that it is necessary to further improve the structure of the luminous water hose so as to effectively increase the illumination of the luminous water hose and reduce the wear of the luminous body without increasing the power of the luminous body. Utility Model Content
[0006] In order to improve the defects of the existing luminous water hose, the first purpose of the present application is to provide a light-transmitting luminous water hose, which has the effect of effectively improving the illumination of the luminous water hose and reducing the wear of the luminous body.
[0007] In order to achieve the purpose of this application, the present application provides a light-transmitting luminous water hose, which adopts the following technical solutions:
[0008] A light-transmitting luminous water hose comprises a water hose body, and also comprises: a light-transmitting layer, which is sleeved outside the water hose body, the light-transmitting layer is woven with fibers, and the fibers include transparent threads; a luminous body, which is arranged between the water hose body and the light-transmitting layer.
[0009] The light-transmitting layer is woven by fibers, has the characteristics of softness, anti-skid and wear resistance, and can effectively protect the light-emitting body arranged in the light-transmitting layer. More importantly, the colored opaque yarns such as various colored polyester, nylon, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, aramid and the like are replaced by transparent yarns in whole or in part to make the light-transmitting layer transparent in whole or in part, so that the light emitted by the light-emitting body can be irradiated outward through the transparent area of the light-transmitting layer, the light transmittance is increased, and the luminance of the light-emitting hose is effectively improved without changing the power of the light-emitting body.
[0010] The cross section of the transparent yarn used in the application is preferably circular, and the light emitted by the light-emitting body can form multi-angle irradiation light after passing through the circular transparent yarn, which has an amplification effect, increases the irradiation range of the light and enhances the visibility range and visibility of the light-emitting hose. The light-transmitting layer of the technical solution of the application is woven by transparent yarns in whole or in part, and each transparent yarn can amplify and diffuse the light of the light-emitting body to different degrees. In addition, the transparent yarn in the woven state has a bending arc in the woven state, which greatly increases the irradiation angle of the light of the light-emitting body. Therefore, the amplification and diffusion effect of the light-transmitting layer woven by the application on the light of the light-emitting body is obviously better than that of the conventional transparent layer with an integral structure.
[0011] Further, the fibers further include opaque yarns, the light-transmitting layer is woven by warp yarns and weft yarns, the weft yarns include the opaque yarns, and the warp yarns include the opaque yarns and the transparent yarns.
[0012] In order to guarantee the strength and softness of the light-transmitting layer, the light-transmitting layer is woven by transparent yarns and conventional opaque yarns, so that the light-transmitting layer has comprehensive advantages in strength, softness and light transmittance. On the other hand, the light-emitting body of the conventional light-emitting hose is arranged in the entire hose along the length direction of the hose body, so that the transparent yarns of the light-transmitting layer are used as warp yarns according to the arrangement direction of the light-emitting body, so that the transparent yarns are also arranged along the length direction of the hose body. This arrangement makes the light emitted by the light-emitting body pass through the light-transmitting layer and visually form a straight line, which is more eye-catching.
[0013] Further, the light-transmitting layer is woven by the warp yarns pressing two weft yarns and picking one weft yarn. This weaving method can make the warp yarns have more exposure, which is more conducive to improving the luminous flux of the light-transmitting layer.
[0014] In an embodiment, further, each of the warp yarns is ply-twisted by the opaque yarns and the transparent yarns.
[0015] Further, the number ratio of the opaque yarn and the transparent line is 1:1, the diameter of the opaque yarn and the diameter of the transparent line are within 0.2mm, and the diameter of the weft and the diameter of the warp are within 0.2mm.
[0016] In the above technical solution, the twisting mode of the transparent line and the opaque yarn mainly helps to improve the strength of the warp, thereby improving the wear resistance of the light transmission layer. The diameter limitation of the transparent line, the opaque yarn, the warp and the weft makes the knitted light transmission layer smoother, which helps to realize the smoothness of the transmission medium channel of the inner lining layer.
[0017] In another embodiment, further, the warp comprises a plurality of the opaque yarn and a plurality of the transparent line, and the opaque yarn and the transparent line are arranged in parallel and at intervals.
[0018] Further, the diameters of the opaque yarn, the transparent line and the weft are within 0.2mm of each other.
[0019] In the above technical solution, the opaque line and the transparent line are used as the warp alone, which is simpler in manufacturing process, and can also meet the use requirements of light transmission and wear resistance. The diameter limitation of the transparent line and the opaque yarn makes the knitted light transmission layer smoother, which helps to realize the smoothness of the transmission medium channel of the inner lining layer.
[0020] Further, the proportion of the transparent line in the warp is greater than 0 and less than or equal to 50%. The opaque yarn in the warp is mainly used to improve the wear resistance, slip resistance and flexibility of the light transmission layer, and the transparent line is used for light transmission. By limiting the use proportion of the transparent line and the opaque yarn, the light transmission type light-emitting water hose has good performance in brightness, wear resistance, slip resistance and flexibility.
[0021] In an embodiment, further, the water hose body comprises an inner lining layer, the light transmission layer is sleeved outside the inner lining layer, and the light emitter is located between the inner lining layer and the light transmission layer. In this embodiment, the light transmission layer is used as a knitted layer, which has the effect of light transmission.
[0022] In another embodiment, further, the water hose body comprises an inner lining layer and a knitted layer, the light transmission layer is sleeved outside the knitted layer, and the light emitter is located between the knitted layer and the light transmission layer. In this embodiment, the light transmission layer is added outside the conventional knitted layer, which enhances the light transmission while increasing the strength of the water hose.
[0023] In summary, the present application provides a light transmission type light-emitting water hose, which has the following technical effects:
[0024] Firstly, the present application weaves a light-transmitting layer outside the light-emitting body, which not only protects the light-emitting body, but also improves the problem of shielding of light of the light-emitting body caused by the conventional non-transparent yarn woven layer, so that the luminance of the light-emitting water hose can be effectively improved without changing the power of the light-emitting body.
[0025] Secondly, the light-transmitting layer has a plurality of transparent yarns in a woven state, each of which can amplify and diffuse the light of the light-emitting body to different degrees, and the transparent yarns have a curved arc in the woven state, which greatly increases the illumination angle of the light of the light-emitting body, so that the visible range and visibility of the light-emitting water hose of the present application are significantly better than those of the light-emitting water hose without the light-transmitting layer and the light-emitting water hose with the conventional integrated transparent layer.
[0026] Thirdly, the transparent yarns of the light-transmitting layer are used as warp threads according to the arrangement direction of the light-emitting body, so that the light emitted by the light-emitting body is more likely to form a straight line visually after transmitting through the light-transmitting layer, and the light-emitting water hose is more easily identified in a fire scene with thick smoke.
[0027] Fourthly, each warp thread is woven by pressing two weft threads and picking one weft thread, so that the warp thread is more exposed, which is beneficial to further increase the luminous flux of the light-transmitting layer and improve the illuminance of the light-emitting water hose.
