Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a package for a fire hose for a fire hydrant.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, fire hoses not only for fire hydrants but also for fire engines are usually coiled from one end or folded in half at approximately the center. It is common to fold the paper in half and wind it into a coil from the center, tie it with a band or the like, and store it in a case.

In addition, fire hoses for fire hydrants usually have multiple hoses stored in one case, unlike the fire hoses installed on fire engines that store one hose in one case. It is. This is so that hoses can be easily transported when stored and installed in a large number of fire hydrant boxes installed in buildings, etc., and also to save on packing materials for cases.

(Problem to be solved) By the way, as shown in Fig. 1, two hoses 2 are placed in a fire hydrant box 1.
and 2' are connected and folded in a meandering manner, and the folded part 3 is connected to the hose locking part 4.
It is stored so that it can be hung.

When storing and installing hoses in this fire hydrant box, in the conventional fire hose packaging for fire hydrants, first, one coiled hose is taken out from the case, unwound and folded, It is necessary to sequentially hang the folded parts on the hose locking part, then take out another hose from the case, connect it, unwind it again, fold it, and hang it on the hose locking part. Ta.

This work was extremely troublesome and time-consuming, as the hose was often twisted when uncoiling the coiled hose. Also, during this work, the hoses were often soiled and damaged.

The present invention was devised in view of the above circumstances, and it is easy to install a fire hydrant box, the hose does not get dirty or damaged during the work, and furthermore, To provide a packaging body for a fire hose for a fire hydrant, which is easy to transport when the hoses are stored and installed in a large number of fire hydrant boxes, and can further save packaging materials such as cases.

(Means for Solving the Problem) In the present invention, two fire hoses are connected, and the connecting fittings at both ends of the hoses are arranged at diagonal positions facing each other, and the hoses are sequentially extended inward from both ends to a predetermined length. Then, fold the folded hose on one side so that the folded part on one side is the same as the number of hose locking parts in the fire hydrant box, and place the connecting fitting in the center at the center of the folded hose. Arrange it so that it is wrapped, tie it with a band, etc. in two places across the connection fitting in the center, in a direction perpendicular to the folded hose, and tie it together.
The device is characterized in that a plurality of sets are stacked so that the connecting fittings at both ends do not overlap each other, and are stored in one case.

(Function) According to the package of fire hose for fire hydrant of the present invention, since the number of folded parts on one side of the hose is the same as the number of hose locking parts in the fire hydrant box, take out the hose from the case and remove one band. The folded portion can be hooked onto the hose locking portion simply by simply hooking the folded portion to the hose locking portion.

In addition, the connecting fittings at both ends of the two fire hoses connected are placed at diagonal positions facing each other, and the hoses are sequentially folded inward from both ends to a predetermined length, and multiple sets are folded at both ends. Stack the connecting fittings of the parts so that they do not overlap each other,
Since they are housed in one case, the respective connection fittings do not come into contact with each other.

(Example) Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In Fig. 2, 2 and 2' are two fire hoses for fire hydrants, which are connected by connecting fittings 5 and 5'. has been done. The two connected hoses 2 and 2' are arranged at diagonal positions where the connecting fittings 6 and 6' at both ends thereof face each other, and the hoses are successively moved inward from the two ends. Folded in length, the connected fittings 5 and 5' are arranged at approximately the center so as to be wrapped around the folded hoses 2 and 2'. Then, a band or the like 7 is hung at two places in a direction perpendicular to the folded hoses 2 and 2', with the connecting fittings 5 and 5' in the center in between, and the hoses are tied together.

In addition, there are usually 20 hose locking parts 4 in the fire hydrant box 1, and the fire hoses 2 and 2' for the fire hydrant are each supplied in lengths of about 15 m.
The predetermined folded length of the hoses 2 and 2' is:
It is recommended that the length be 75 cm and the number of folding parts 3 should be 20 on each side. Further, when placing the above-mentioned central connecting fittings 5 and 5' so as to be wrapped around the central position of the folded hose, it is preferable to utilize the extra length of the hose.

Then, the hoses 2 and 2' tied together in this way
As shown by the broken lines in the figure, multiple sets are placed inside the case 8, with connecting fittings 6 and 6' at both ends.
They are stacked and stored so that they do not overlap each other.

Incidentally, the positions of the connecting fittings 5 and 5' in the center are slightly shifted so that they do not overlap each other when stacked together.

Next, the procedure for storing and installing the hose into the fire hydrant box 1 from the fire hydrant fire hose package of the present invention will be explained.

First, a pair of hoses 2 and 2' is removed from the case 8, and one of the binding bands 7 is removed.

Since the number of the removed folded portions 3 on one side is the same as the number of hose locking portions 4 in the fire hydrant box 1, the folded portions 3 can be sequentially hung from one end of the hose locking portions 4.

Thereafter, by removing the other binding band 7, the hoses 2 and 2' can be stored and installed in the fire hydrant box 1 very easily.

(Effect of the invention) As described above, according to the invention, the first hose can be taken out from the case, unwound, folded, and hung on the hose locking part in sequence, and then the second hose can be taken out and connected. The storage and installation work is extremely easy compared to the work of unwinding and folding the roll again. Moreover, during this process, the hose does not get dirty or damaged.

In addition, according to the fire hose package for fire hydrants of the present invention, the connection fittings in the case do not come into contact with each other, so the hose acts as a cushion and prevents the connection fittings from colliding with each other during transportation. It won't damage the case.

Furthermore, compared to the conventional packaging which is wound into a coil from one end, wrapped with a band or the like, and then stacked on top of each other and packed in a case, the packaging of the present invention is different from the conventional packaging. The connection fittings at the center of the hose that were wound up would always overlap, causing the center to swell, making the hose unstable within the case, and requiring extra case volume. Not at all. Therefore, it can be stored and packed compactly in a stable state, making it easy to transport when storing and installing hoses in numerous fire hydrant boxes, and further saving on case packaging materials. It is.
