Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a hose storage unit for storing a hose.
  • a hose storage device for storing a hose, specifically a water hose, is well-known.
  • hose storage devices are generally mounted on a wall, a cabinet, and the like, which may increase components associated with the hose storage devices. This additional mounting of such components of the hose storage device may be challenging in some situations.
  • the hose storage device typically includes a hose trolley or a hose box.
  • the hose trolleys or the hose boxes require increased space on a floor or may have to be firmly mounted to the wall. Typically, such arrangements are not useful for short hoses. Further, the hose trolleys or the hose boxes are expensive which increase an overall cost associated with the hose storage device.
  • hose storage devices have been developed for storing the water hose around a water tap.
  • Such hose storage devices generally include a hose holder or hanger which is coupled to the water tap.
  • hose storage device also face constraints due to involvement of a large number of components, connection joints, attachments, and the like.
  • the hose holder or hanger may also put pressure on connection of the hose storage device with the tap.
  • there is a need for an improved design of the hose storage device which provides a simple and cost-effective means for hose storage and can be used for different (say short) hoses.
  • Korean patent 20110024876 reference discloses a fire hose hanger which includes a cylindrical rotating body at one end of a long supporting stand. Further, a tubular hanger portion is formed at other end of the support frame to hang a tubular portion. A fire hose is provided between the cylindrical rotary body and the tubular hanger portion. The fire hose hanger is mounted on a cylindrical rotary body.
  • the '876 reference relies on auxiliary components such as springs, and a separation prevention ring for assembly of the coupling with the fire hose hanger and the fire hose.
  • US2569857 patent reference discloses a body and a hose rack assembly.
  • the body includes a fluid discharge portion and two correspondingly shaped flanges. These flanges are arranged substantially in the same plane, and each is apertured to receive a bolt member. Each bolt member extends into a wall.
  • the hose rack is attached to the body via these two correspondingly shaped flanges.
  • the rack is preferably formed by bending a single elongated rod intermediate its ends to form a cradle for receiving and supporting a coiled hose.
  • US2111811 reference discloses a fire hose rack.
  • the hose rack includes a standpipe outlet valve assembled with the wall.
  • the standpipe outlet valve controls the flow of water from a standpipe through a union or a nipple.
  • the nipple passes through a hole provided in the frame also supports a U-shaped frame and a hose which is in position as it will be held by spring when in place.
  • the hose rack is adapted to swing in a horizontal plane about the nipple.
  • the hose is secured to the nipple by means of a coupling.
  • a nut is threaded to one end of the nipple and serves to support the frame.
  • the frame is provided with a pin extending from one arm of the frame to the other which serves to lock the spring in the frame.
  • hose holder for storing a hose at a water tap.
  • the hose holder includes a connection portion for connecting a holding device with the water tap and a holding portion for receiving the hose.
  • the connection portion includes a tap connection portion for mechanically and fluidly coupling the hose holder with the water tap.
  • the holding portion includes a hose receiving area for supporting the coiled hose in a hanging position such that the windings of the coiled hose are arranged in a vertical plane.
  • hoses having a longer length are generally heavier which may damage the tap connection portion leading to leakage or complete break-off.
  • the objective is at least partially achieved by a new design of a hose storage unit for storing a hose at a tap.
  • the hose storage includes a storage hook to receive the hose.
  • the hose storage also includes a tap connector to fluidly connect the hose and the tap.
  • the hose storage unit is characterized in that an adaptor is removably coupled with the tap and engaged with the tap connector. The adaptor fluidly couples the tap with the tap connector. Further, the storage hook is associated with the adaptor.
  • the present invention provides an improved design of the hose storage uni in accordance with claim 1 which allows quick and easy installation of the hose at the tap.
  • the new design of the hose storage unit can be installed in a compact space and is readily compatible. Further, the hose storage unit does not require an external structure such as a wall for mounting the hose storage units or components thereof.
  • the hose storage unit includes fewer parts thus making the assembly simple and cost effective.
  • the storage hook is directly connected to the adaptor which acts as a screw element. Therefore, a liquid can be fed directly into the hose through the adaptor, and the tap connector.
  • a circular arrangement of the hose storage unit allows the storage hook to rotate around a central axis of the adaptor which makes the hose storage unit user friendly and provides improved ergonomics.
  • the tap connector includes a sealing element that provides tightness of the hose storage unit with an existing tap.
  • the hose is stored on the storage hook which is associated (or coupled) to the adaptor hence a weight of the hose is supported by the adaptor which prevents damage and breakdown at the hose connection.
  • the storage hook is associated with the adaptor by coupling the storage hook around the adaptor. This may allow implementation benefits along with ease of assembly or disassembly of the storage hook with the adaptor.
  • the storage hook is associated with the adaptor by fixing the storage hook with the adaptor.
  • the coupling between the adaptor and the tap connector is a thread coupling.
  • the coupling may be any type of coupling such as the thread coupling which provides ease in assembly and rigidity to a connection between the adaptor and the tap connector.
  • the adaptor is threadably coupled with the tap.
  • the thread coupling provides ease in assembly and rigidity to a connection between the adaptor and the tap, though the coupling may be any coupling such as snap-fit, press-fit or any other as used or known in the art.
  • the storage hook is removably coupled around the adaptor and the tap connector.
  • a removable coupling provides flexibility to use the hose storage unit for different taps thereby providing a versatile and modular hose storage unit. Further, the hose storage unit may be quickly dissembled when not in use.
  • the storage hook includes a hose receiving portion to receive the hose.
  • the hose receiving portion allows the user to store (say winding or looping) the hose on the storage hook.
  • the hose receiving portion of the storage hook is substantially horizontal.
  • the substantially horizontal hose receiving portion provides a larger and stable area for holding of the hose in a horizontal configuration.
  • the hose receiving portion of the storage hook is inclined with respect to the central axis of the adaptor. Such an inclined hose receiving portion allows the hose to be stored in an inclined configuration which provides easy and secure storage of the hose.
  • the storage hook has a "U” shape.
  • the storage hook may have any shape (say “V”, “L” and like shapes), size, type as per application requirements.
  • This arrangement i.e., the "U" shape of the present disclosure
  • the storage hook may provide easy, stable, and secure storage of the hose.
  • the storage hook includes a hole to receive the adaptor. This arrangement provides easy assembly of the storage hook around the adaptor and thereby with the tap.
