<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a flexible ceramic hose having a further more improved life wherein wearing portions on the inner faces of cylinder pieces are more dispersed than conventional by designing the number of cylinder pieces to be replaceable with each other while avoiding the occurrence of gaps between the adjacent cylinder pieces in the axial direction of the hose. <P>SOLUTION: The flexible ceramic hose comprises an inside hose (a) in a multi-joint structure where the number of ceramic cylinder pieces 1 each having one concave end 2 and the other convex end 3 fittable thereto are continuously provided in a relatively bendable manner with one end 2 of each of the adjacent cylinder pieces 1, 1 fitted to the other end 3 of the other, and an outside hose (b) formed of a flexible material for covering the inside hose (a), the outside hose (b) and the inside hose (a) being fitted to each other in a relatively movable manner. Herein, a thrust means (c) is mounted for thrusting and energizing the inside hose (a) to be compressed in the direction of a hose axis P. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT</p> |
