20120210752 | Hose Reinforcement Knitting Machine and Knitting Process - A circular knitting machine ( | 08-23-2012 |
20130180615 | Linearly retractable pressure hose structure - A self-actuated linearly retractable and extendible hose ( | 07-18-2013 |
20140130930 | ELASTIC AND SPRING BIASED RETRACTABLE HOSES - An extendable and retractable pressure hose can be constructed comprising an input connector, an output connector, an elastic inner hose, an outer cover, and one or more portions of the elastic inner hose engaged with the outer cover and disposed between the first and second ends of the hose. In such a hose, the input connector and output connector can be connected to each end of elastic inner hose and outer cover. | 05-15-2014 |
20140150889 | COLLAPSIBLE HOSES AND PRESSURE SYSTEMS - An extendible and collapsible pressure hose system can be created which comprises a collapsible pressure hose with a hose output connector mounted on one end and a fluid control system mounted on the other. In such a system, the collapsible pressure hose can, but need not comprise a coiled support wire, a convoluted hose body and/or an outer reinforcement cover. A fluid control system can comprise an input connector attached to hose, input connector housing, a main valve, and a pump. In such a fluid control system, the main valve can direct fluid within hose in three modes: 1) an open mode, where fluid pressure extends hose for use, 2) a retract mode, where the pump is used to pump fluid out of the hose, and 3) a closed mode, where no fluid can flow and in which the hose can be stowed. | 06-05-2014 |
20140230945 | LINEARLY RETRACTABLE PRESSURE HOSE STRUCTURE - A self-actuated linearly retractable and extendible hose for use in transporting fluids (liquids, gases, solid particles, and combinations of these) between a source location and an output location can be implemented as an extendible hose comprising a biasing means, a sealing layer, and a reinforced cover layer. The sealing layer forms a sealed conduit for transporting the fluids, and the reinforced cover layer on the outside provides radial and longitudinal strength for the sealing layer. The hose can be operated by increasing internal pressure within the hose relative to ambient pressure. When the hose is pressurized by a fluid source, the internal pressure of the hose overcomes the retracting force of the biasing means and the hose extends. When the fluid source is turned off or disconnected from the hose, internal pressure is reduced and the biasing means exerts a tension force on the hose causing the hose to retract. | 08-21-2014 |
20140298957 | Folding Dual Ratchet Wrench (FDR Wrench) - A hand wrench comprising a center handle ( | 10-09-2014 |
20150041016 | RETRACTABLE ELASTIC BUNGEE HOSE - A retractable elastic pressure hose | 02-12-2015 |
20150129042 | SPRING BIASED RETRACTABLE HOSES - An extendable and retractable pressure hose can be constructed comprising an input connector, an output connector, an elastic inner hose, an outer cover, and one or more portions of the elastic inner hose engaged with the outer cover and disposed between the first and second ends of the hose. In such a hose, the input connector and output connector can be connected to each end of elastic inner hose and outer cover. | 05-14-2015 |
20150336257 | Folding Multiwrenches - A folding multifunction wrench for tightening or loosening a plurality of different sized rotary fasteners, comprising at least two wrench heads attached to their own respective wrench arm with the wrench arms pivotally mounted together at a hinge and pivotal (foldable) to a smaller stowed position or extend to a larger operational position. Individual wrench arms can be used either as a wrench handle or as a wrench tool depending on which end of the wrench the user grasps. During use, the rotational axes of the gripping surfaces on the wrench head can be oriented within ten degrees of being perpendicular to the hinge axis of the two or more wrench arms, whereby torque can be transmitted across the hinge axis for turning the plurality of different sized rotary fastener. | 11-26-2015 |
20150354731 | ANNULAR-PLEATED CIRCULAR BRAID - Aspects of this disclosure can be used to implement a braided cover comprising a plurality of left handed fibers and a plurality of right-handed fibers braided into a hollow tube of fabric. Such a braided cover may be adapted to form a plurality of annular ridges and annular valleys along the longitudinal length of the braided cover when compressed from an extended length to a compressed length. | 12-10-2015 |
