HOSE-JACKET.
SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 224,397, dated February 10, 1880.
Application filed September 9, 1879.
1 all whom it may concern Be it known that 1, CHARLES (moon, of Newton, in the county of Sussex and State of New Jersey, have invented a new and Improved Hose-Jacket, of which the following specification is a description.
This invention has for its object the production of an easily-adjustable jacket for effectually closing bursts or accidental openings in hose-pipe while in use; and the invention consists in various improvements on the hosejackets now in use, the principal feature of invention being the peculiar manner of fastenin g and unfastening the jacket by a wedgeacting clamp, as hereinafter described.
In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1 is I a plan view'of my improved hose-jacket in position around a burst hose, showing the clamp broken away. Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view.
thereof.
Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both figures,
My improved hose-jacket consists of a piece of ordinary hose-pipe or any other suitable material sufficiently flexible, usually about twelve inches in length, and varying in circumference, so as to fit the diflerent sizes of hose-pipe. It is slit lengthwise on one side the en tire length of the jacket, and is provided with two plates of brass or othersuitable material, which are rigidly fastened to the jacket by suitable means at the cut edges thereof. The contiguous edges of these brass plates are turned over, tapering gradually from end to end, thus forming a wedge. Each end of the jacket is partially encircled by a hoop or band, of brass or other suitable metal, the ends of the hoops passing under and being rigidly secured by suitable means to the plates. Attached to one end of the jacket is a clamp, of brass or other metal, which has its edges turned under and is of a gradually tapering form, so as to fit over the wedge formed by the said two plates.
In the accompanying drawings, A designates the jacket; B B, the brass plates, and a a the tapering edges thereof, turned over as described. '1) b designate the metal hoops or hands, and O designates the clamp, oval on top and of tapering form, having its edges 0 0 turned under, so as to interlock with the edges a. a of the plates 13 B. This clamp O is provided on its under side with a downwardlyprojecting and gradually-tapering rib, d, of wood or other suitable material, rigidly secured to the clamp (l.
e designates a' projection, thumb -piecc, or handle of suitable shape rigidly secured to the upper side of the clamp O.
In practice the jacket is put around the burst portion of the hose, and the clamp G is inserted over the plates B B, the edges a a and c c interlocking, and the clamp is forced forward until it closes the mouth of the jacket from end to end.
The rib e on the clamp O prevents any slipping or lateral play of the edges to a.
The advantages of this construction of a hose-jacket are manifold. It not only combines great rigidity and strength, but is so simple in its construction that inexperienced persons can'adjust and fasten it around a burst hose in a very few seconds.
This invention is specially adapted for firehose, as the bursting of hose-pipe at a large fire is often the cause of great damage, and always of considerable delay, as the engine must be stopped and a new length substituted for the burst one.
My invention does away with the necessity of stopping the engine and removing the length of hose, as one of my jackets can be placed in position around the burst in the hose in a very few seconds and will make it absolutely watertight.v
Every fire company could carry a number of these jackets of suitable sizes to fit the different sizes of hose, and thus be always prepared to meet any emergency caused by the bursting of hose at a fire.
This invention is not limited in its, operation to fire-hose alone, but can be adapted to be. used for Water-pipes, steam-pipes, 850.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
- 1. In a hose-jacket, the tapering wedge-acting clamp O, for closing the jacket, so that it will entirely encircle the hose pipe and be rigidly held in place, substantially as specified.
2. In a hose-jacket composed of suitable material, plates of brass or other suitable material, rigidly secured to the jacket, having their contiguous edges turned over and tapering from end to end, so as to interlock with the tapering edges of the clamp O, substantially as specified.
3. In a hose-jacket composed of suitable material, the tapering wedge-acting clamp 0, having its edges turned under, so as to interlock with the tapering edges of the plates B B and force the parallel edges of the jacket together until the jacket is entirely closed from end to end, substantially as specified.
4. In a hose-jacket composed of suitable material, two or more bands or hoops, of metal, partially encircling the jacket and having their ends rigidly secured near the mouth thereof,
substantially as specified.
5. The combination, in ahose-jacket of suitable material, of the plates B B, having the specified.
