Self-Supported Hose Delivery Assembly

摘要

A self-supported hose delivery assembly includes a series of expandable socket joints attached to one another, a nozzle, and a back pressure protection apparatus. The series of attached expandable socket joints have a proximal and distal end and the nozzle is connected to the proximal and the back pressure protection apparatus is connected to the distal end. When the back pressure protection apparatus is attached to a pressure source, the substance released from the pressure source travels through the back pressure protection apparatus, through the series of expandable socket joints, to the nozzle. The expandable socket joints react to pressure and when force is applied to them, they are pulled tightly, resulting in the overall assembly stiffening up into whatever position the user wishes and be self-supporting.
