  • Patent number: 8691036
    Abstract: A reusable hose bundling sleeve is provided that is made of a tightly-woven nylon material coated with urethane. Strips of hooks and loops are adhered and stitched to opposite ends of opposite sides of the sleeve. The reusable hose is installed by wrapping the sleeve around the hoses or cables such that the strips of hooks and loops align and engage. Notches can be cut along the length of the reusable hose bundling sleeve to allow for shorter hoses or cables within the sleeve to exit. Because of the materials used, the notches will not weaken the fibers and cause fraying. The reusable hose bundling sleeve is removed by separating the strips of hooks and loops and unwrapping the sleeve. The reusable hose bundling sleeve can be installed, removed, and reinstalled quickly and without diminishing durability. Alternatively, the sleeve may be adapted to be secured and/or hanged.

Strips of hooks and loops are adhered and stitched to opposite ends of opposite sides of the sleeve. The reusable hose is installed by wrapping the sleeve around the hoses or cables to be protected such that the strips of hooks and loops align and engage.

  • Patent number: 6571830
    Abstract: A one piece valve body incorporates a built in strainer and a ball valve which can be used for cleaning out the strainer without any disassembly, and also serves the purpose of the manual drain that has to be in the system for code. Also the orifice to the valve is mounted on top of the strainer so gravity will help in keeping any debris that might get through the filter screen from entering and causing the valve to fail. The design of the inlet is such that a chamfer is machined on the inside so a standard female swivel fitting can be installed without adding a separate union. This valve body design can work for both direct acting or diaphragm operated valves.
