<p>The object of the invention is a high-pressure rubber hose comprising a liner (1), rubberized textile layers (2), main reinforcing plies (3) and a cover (5). The invention is essentially characterised by that the hose has an integrated coupling (7) and a permanent two- or three-dimensionally curved shape, which shape it retains in the absence of external force. The method according to the invention comprises the steps of building the high-pressure hose from its structural elements on a mandrel, providing an integrated coupling (7) to the hose, securing the coupling to the hose, removing the built-up hose structure from the mandrel, producing the desired final shape of the hose before vulcanization, and retaining the final shape by keeping the hose fixed during vulcanization. The apparatus according to the invention is essentially characterised by that it comprises blinds (12) matching the hose couplings (7), the blinds being disposed with fixed orientation and position.</p> |
