HRP20130662A2 - Manual winder fire hose - Google Patents

Abstract

The manual fire hose reel allows winding of the fire hoses so that by a manually operated transmission that multiplies the strength of a human being, the winding pipe is far less required, using the convenience of having the entire structure firmly attached to the human body, which, on the spot, overcomes obstacles in its own motion and this speeds up and greatly facilitates this work. The windlass has a carrier (1) that is adapted to be worn on a person's chest. A tube winder (2) and a roller (3) with a shaft (4) and a gearbox (5) are attached to the bracket, which make it easy for a person to rotate the shaft. By turning the shaft, the fire hose (6) is wound on the winding of the hose (2) and is easily removed from the hose. Repeating the process does not require any further addition of any other equipment to the winder.

Description

The field of technology

This invention refers to a manual fire hose reel that, among other things, has a drive for winding a fire hose! which the firefighter wears on his body, that is, on his chest. There is a structure under preparation, which consists of a shaft on which the fire hose is wound, and which is started manually.

Technical problem

The problem that this invention solves is the manual winding of fire hoses after extinguishing a fire and performing fire drills, when these hoses are stretched out in buildings with stairs or on terrain that requires steep climbing.

State of the art

According to information available on the Internet and through conversations with firefighting experts, there are no such technical solutions that are used in practice.

Presentation of the essence of the invention

As part of the standard equipment, the fire department has one or more coilers, as well as a much larger number of standard coiled fire hoses. Upon arrival at the desired location, firefighters carry standard coiled fire hoses in their hands, and unroll them in the desired directions. When the work is completed, instead of winding them by hand, they fasten the middle of one pipe in the winder with a simple operation, and walking in the direction of the pipe that is lying on the stairs or steep terrain, they manually turn the shaft over which the pipe is wound on the structure prepared for it, using a mechanism that multiplies their strength, so that winding is no longer a difficult and slow job. The coiled tube is simply removed and placed in the desired location, and the action is repeated until all the tubes are coiled. In this way, the reel replaces the work of several firefighters, because it speeds up and facilitates the otherwise slow winding of fire hoses, especially when dealing with large-scale fires.

Brief description of the drawing

Figure 1 shows a manual fire hose reel. The winder has a carrier (1) that is adapted to be worn on a person's chest. A pipe winder (2) and four rollers (3) with a shaft (4) and a reducer (5) are attached to the support, which make it easier for a person to turn the shaft. The fire hose (6) is wound on the hose reel (2) by turning the shaft and removed from it with a simple pull. Repeating the procedure does not require any further addition of any other equipment to the reel.

List of all used call signs and symbols:

1. Bracket

2. Pipe winder

3. Roller

4. Shaft

5. Reducer

6. Fire hose

Method of application of the invention

The best way to apply the invention is for the firefighter to take the fire hose by the middle, insert it on the shaft of the structure for winding the pipe with a simple action, and with physical force turn the shaft on which the structure on which the pipe is wound is located.

Claims (1)

1. Manual fire hose reel characterized by the fact that it consists of a support (1) on which there is a shaft (4) turned manually via a reducer (5) and a hose reel (2) on which the fire hose (6) is wound, and a roller ( 3) serves as a guide for the fire hose (6) during winding.
