Abstract: A fire hose coupling comprises a first coupler body having a first recessed portion that includes a first visual indication. The coupling also comprises a second coupler body adapted to be coupled to the first coupler body to form the coupling, the second coupler body having a second recessed portion that includes a second visual indication matching the first visual indication. Color-coded stickers or adhesive-backed high-visibility decals may be adhered to the recessed portions. The couplings may be recoded by adhering differently colored stickers. This technology enables firefighters to quickly and easily color-code their hoses for identification purposes. Because of the recesses, the color-coded stickers are substantially protected from abrasion or wear and tear.

Abstract: A coupler and plug system for air line uses which identifies properly mating components by the colors of the components. The coupler of the system includes a sleeve which is made in a chosen color. The plug of the system is made in the same color as the sleeve of the coupler. The plug and coupler sleeve may be anodized aluminum dyed in the same color. By choosing a plug which is of a matching color to the sleeve of a coupler, the user will choose a plug which properly mates with the coupler.

Abstract: A transfer hose with two or more lay lines located on the exterior layer of the transfer hose. The lay lines run longitudinally down the length of the hose and are preferably placed at various points along various axes, spread around the outer circumference of the transfer hose. Each lay line may or may not be equidistant from the next lay line. The lay lines include the ability to be marked with a date and/or time of placement in the current position, to allow for the hose to be laid straight and then rotated from one lay line to the next lay line. Rotation of the hose occurs after a predetermined amount of time has passed. The consistent rotation prevents one area of the interior of the hose from breaking down or wearing out from the abrasive slurry being carried inside before any other portion of the hose. The method of rotation allows the entire length and circumference of the hose to be used equally. This method and process of incremental rotation extends the life of the hose life.

Abstract translation: 带有两条或更多条铺设线的输送软管，位于输送软管的外层上。 铺设线在软管的长度上纵向延伸，并且优选地沿着各种轴线放置在沿着输送软管的外圆周分布的各个点处。 每一条线可能与下一条线等距离也可能不等距。 铺设线包括在当前位置上标记有日期和/或时间的能力，以使软管能够被直线放置，然后从一条铺线转到下一条线。 软管的旋转在经过预定的时间后发生。 一致的旋转防止软管内部的一个区域在软管的任何其他部分之前从被携带的研磨浆料中分解或磨损。 旋转方法允许软管的整个长度和周长被平等地使用。 这种增量旋转的方法和过程延长了软管使用寿命。
