  • Patent number: 6042029
    Abstract: A connector for connecting a pair of firefighting nozzles to a fire service line includes a single inlet and a pair of outlets in fluid communication with the inlet. Each outlet forms the terminal end of a generally tubular arm whose inner diameter is substantially similar to that of the inlet. One arm includes a joint, whereby the one arm may be selectively articulated relative to the other arm from a first position in parallel relation to the other arm to a second position forming an angle of up to about 90 degrees with respect to the other arm. Preferably, the arms are of dissimilar length, with the articulatable arm extending to a point farther removed from the inlet than the other arm when the articulatable arm is in its first position relative to the other arm.
