Fire hose coupling with directional indicator |
摘要 |
A fire hose coupling comprises a body having a first end connected to a fire hose and a second end having either male or female threads or, alternatively, a quarter-turn sexless coupler. The fire hose coupling comprises a recessed portion formed in an outer surface of the body. The recessed portion is shaped to define a visuotactile directional indicator such as an arrow. The recessed portion may include a light-reflecting surface to enhance visibility such as a super reflective metal film, a photo luminescent coating, or a phosfluorescent coating. The recessed directional indicator may be formed in female, male or sexless (Storz) couplings. |

1. A fire hose coupling comprising:
a substantially annular coupling body having a first annular portion and a second annular portion, wherein the second annular portion is wider than the first annular portion, and wherein the second annular portion defines a coupler for connecting to another coupling; at least one recessed portion formed in an outer surface of the first annular portion, the recessed portion being arrow-shaped to define a visuotactile directional indicator for indicating a direction of exit; and a plurality of lugs that extend radially outwardly from the second annular portion. |
