(Granted under Title 35, U. S. Code (1952),
see. 266) governmental purposes, without payment to me of any royalty thereon.
The present invention provides certain improvements in fire-fighting equipment, and more specifically it provides for an attachment for a nozzle of a fire hose for facilitating application of fire-extinguishing media, either in liquid form, such as water or chemical extinguishing agents, or in gaseous form, such as carbon dioxide, onto fires located in diflicultl accessible locations.
The invention has for a more specific object the provision of an improved construction of a detachable nozzle attachment which will deliver to a fire a selected type of stream of extinguishing medium dependent upon the particular environment in which the fire is located, as well as the type of material undergoing combustion.
The present application is a division of the copending application Serial No. 18,123, filed March 31, 1948, now Patent No. 2,567,176, entitled Fire Fighting Nozzle.
The nozzle attachment of the present invention will be understood structurally from a consideration of the accompanying drawings, in which: 7
Fig. 1 represents a fragmentary side elevation of the improved attachment mounted on the end of a fire-fighting nozzle;
Fig. 2 is an exploded longitudinal sectional view showing coupling means for attaching the adapter of Fig. l to the end of a nozzle;
Fig. 3 is a fragmentary detail longitudinal sectional view of a portion of a nozzle tip with an applicator being applied thereto; and
Fig. 4 is a fragmentary detaail longitudinal sectional view, showing the parts of Fig. 3 is an assembled relation with the applicator attachment in operative position on the nozzle tip.
Referring more particularly to'the drawings, reference character A designates generally the improved applicator attachment which is adapted to be connected to a fire hose nozzle B.
The applicator attachment A comprises a tubular stem 5 having its intake end secured to the nozzle B through connector means 1, which will be referred to in greater detail hereinafter. The stem 5 is shown as having a bend 9 therein, ad-
jacent to the discharge head II, which bend is shown as being approximately a 90 bend, although this is not essentially a critical factor; but this bend frequently facilitates insertion of the discharge head into a location of a difficultly accessible fire. The discharge head U is shown as having a plurality of discharge openings |3 for spraying extinguishing liquid onto the fire, or for forming an incombustible blanket of extinguishing medium around a fire. The discharge head H is removable readily for replacement with other interchangeable heads for producing various selected patterns of extinguishing liquid depending upon the character and location of the fire being fought.
The connection of the applicator attachment A to the nozzle B is made by means of the cylindrical tubular connector 1, which has a forwardly extending end portion |5 having an annular collar that is externally threaded, as shown at l9, and defines an internal annular abutment shoulder 2| for seating a resilient washer 23 against which the end of the nozzle B may be received. The collar I1 is extended forwardly in a tubular portion 25 to which is attached the stem 5 of the applicator A through a connecting collar 21.
For connecting the tubular applicator A to the nozzle B, the connector 1 is provided with a series of annularly disposed holes 29 which taper inwardly, and which receive metallic locking; balls 3|. These balls are proportioned in their diameter relative to the holes 29 so that they will pass into these holes 29 and are retained therein for interlocking in an annular recess 33, provided for the reception of the said balls 3| in the nozzle B, the tip 35 of the said nozzle seating against the washer 23, this tip 35 of the nozzle also forming a locking abutment for the nozzle in conjunction with the balls 3| as will be apparent from the drawings.
The forward portion of the connector I, including the threads I9 on the collar l1 extends into a locking sleeve 0, this latter element being tubular and cylindrical, and is provided with internal threads 3! which mesh with the threads H] on the connector 1, the forward end of the locking sleeve 0 being open as indicated at 39 for the passage of the forward tubular extension 25 of the connector I. The rear end of this locking sleeve C is slightly divergingly tapered inside, as shown at 4| and 43, for clearing the locking balls 3| while retaining the latter in the countersunk holes 29.
In assembling the attachment, the metal looking balls 3| are placed in the countersunk holes 29. The cylindrical casing 45 of the locking sleeve C is slipped over the connector 1 and the threads 31 and H! are engaged, and interlocked. At this position, the metal balls 3| are free to move in and out of. the countersunk holes 29, but they cannot be entirely displaced therefrom, since there is insufiicient clearance between the outside of the connector 1 and the inside of the sleeve, and since the minimum diameter of the holes 29 is less than the diameter of the metal balls 3|.
The assembled attachment can be slipped over the nozzle tip, since the inside diameter 43 is such that the balls 3| can be pushed outwardly by cam action of the nozzle tip 35 as it enters the connector I.
Then as the sleeve 25 is screwed further onto the connector in the direction of the nozzle tip, the convergingly tapered surface l? of the sleeve engages the balls 3! and depresses :the balls in their countersunk holes 28 until they extend into the annular recess 33 in the nozzle tip and against the tapered cam surface 51, forcing the nozzle tip tightly against the washer '23 to prevent leakage. The tubular projection 25 usually is a part of the applicator stem 5, although it may be threadedly connected thereto bymeans of a-collar 2 which is mounted on the applicator stem '5 and serves as a stop for preventing accidental displacement of the connector sleeve C from the connector l, thereby preventing possible .loss of the balls 34.. The sleeve 8 may be slipped over the tubular applicator stem 5 prior to bending thereof and attachment of the spray head H, and also prior to application of the stop 2'5, which may be welded cor secured otherwise to the tubularapplicator stem 5. If this stop-cellar 2t serves as a connector between the applicator stein 5 and the projection ' 25, it may be threaded internally and complementarily to threads on the end of the projection 25, this being a mere matter of detail determined purely by considerations of convenience of manipulationas will be obvious.
Also it will be apparent that the applicator unit herein described is replaceable readily with other units of similar construction ibut of different lengths, for example 'by way of illustration,
eight, ten, or twelve "feet, depending on conditions of use.
Having thus described my invention, what I "claim as new and wish to secure by Letters Patent is:
