<p>The present invention relates to a fire hose support (1) for holding a fire hose nozzle, in particular a fire hose support that may be temporarily clamped to hand railing (2, 3). The fire hose support comprises an elongate member (7, 9) with a pair of grips (4, 5) adapted to receive a pair of parallel handrails (2, 3) one in each grip (4, 5), the length of the elongate member (7, 9) being adjustable to adjust the distance between the grips (4, 5). Clamping means (22, 30) is provided to clamp at least one of the grips (4) to a handrail (2), and mounting means (88) is provided to releasably secure a fire hose nozzle to the support (1). The support (1) may be releasably secured to the pair of handrails (2, 3) by first opening a grip (4, 22) and adjusting the length of the elongate member (7, 9) until both handrails (2, 3) are received in the grips (4, 5) and then by clamping at least one of the grips (4) to engage both rails (2, 3) securely within the grips (4, 5).</p> |
