AI Technical Summary
Existing methods for inserting a suction hose into water tanks are imprecise, leading to incomplete water extraction due to incorrect hose length adjustment, which can result in air entry or hose bending.
A suction hose stand with fluorescently colored rings and uniformly shaped shafts guides the suction port accurately into the tank's bottom pit, ensuring the correct hose length for complete water draw.
Ensures accurate insertion of the suction port into the tank's bottom pit, allowing complete water extraction without air entry, optimizing hose length usage.

[0001] The present invention relates to a stand for a suction pipe suitable for pumping water from water tanks such as fireproof water tanks, earthquake-resistant water storage tanks, various water storage tanks, and storage tanks.
Background Art
[0002] The stand for the suction pipe has a plurality of shafts (5) of the same shape connected to all the rings.
[0003] The uppermost ring (1) and the lowermost ring (4) have a fluorescent color on their upper surfaces.
[0004] The interval between each of the shafts (5) is smaller than the outer diameter of the hose of the suction pipe and the size of the suction port of the suction pipe.

Summary of the Invention
Problems to be Solved by the Invention
[0006] Conventionally, when pumping water from a fireproof water tank, an earthquake-resistant water storage tank, various water storage tanks, a storage tank, etc., when opening the lid and throwing the suction pipe into the water tank, the suction port was dropped into the water only by estimation, and the length of the hose of the suction pipe inserted into the water was adjusted only by estimation.
[0007] Often, the suction port of the suction pipe did not enter the bottom pit in the water tank, and it was often impossible to completely suck up the water in the water tank.
[0008] Determining how far to insert the suction hose into the aquarium relies on guesswork. If the hose is too short, water cannot be completely drawn out. Conversely, if the hose is inserted too far, it can bend inside the aquarium, causing the suction port to rise above the water surface again, allowing air to enter and preventing water from being drawn up. The present invention provides a suction hose stand that allows the suction port to be accurately lowered into the bottom pit, both day and night, and ensures that the length of the hose inserted into the aquarium is just enough to completely draw up the water. [Means for solving the problem]
[0009] The suction hose stand according to the present invention has a configuration in which both the uppermost ring (1) and the lowermost ring (4) are fluorescent in color, and the space between ring (1) and ring (4) is surrounded by multiple shafts (5) of the same shape. Furthermore, the suction hose stand body is configured such that ring (4) is housed in a bottom pit and ring (1) is housed inside the suction hose insertion hole. [Effects of the Invention]
[0010] In this invention, when inserting the suction port of the suction hose into the suction hose insertion hole, both during the day and at night, the fluorescent ring (1) can be used as a guide in the first step, and the fluorescent ring (4) can be used as a guide in the second step, allowing the hose to be inserted into the bottom pit.
[0011] Furthermore, because rings (1) and (4) are connected by multiple identical shafts (5), the suction port of the suction tube is guided as it falls and reaches the inside of ring (4) in the bottom pit. Upon reaching this point, the suction tube stops falling, and the hose is held vertically by the shafts (5). This held state provides the necessary and sufficient length of the hose in the water. As a result, the water in the tank can be completely drawn up. This also contributes to the efficient use of the hose length. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[0013] Figures 1 and 2 show an embodiment of the suction hose stand according to the present invention. In Figure 1, multiple shafts (5) of the same shape are connected to rings (1), (2), (3), and (4).
[0014] The top ring (1) and the bottom ring (4) have fluorescent colors on their upper surfaces. [Explanation of Symbols]

Claims
1. It has a ring (1) at the top and a ring (4) at the bottom. Rings (1) and (4) are separated by rings (2) and (3), and the number of rings between rings (1) and (4) increases or decreases depending on the overall size. Also, the size of each ring increases or decreases depending on the conditions of the installation site. A suction hose stand in which multiple shafts (5) of the same shape are each connected to all the rings.
2. The top ring (1) and the bottom ring (4) are stands for suction tubes, each having a fluorescent color on its upper surface.
