  • Patent number: 8752413
    Abstract: A test pressurization device (100) for hose (1) includes a first pair of press/driving rolls (10, 12) between which the hose can be inserted, and a second pair of press/driving rolls (20, 22) between which the hose can be inserted. The first pair of press/driving rolls (10, 12) is arranged on a distance from the second pair of press/driving rolls (20, 22). Further each pair of press/driving rolls is arranged for pressing the hose together between the rolls in conjunction with pressurization with a medium such as water so that a limited part of the hose, which is located between the first and the second pair of press/driving rolls, can be held pressurized and control of the hoses or its couplings tightness is admitted. Furthermore, while sections of the hose are held pressurized between the pairs of press/driving rolls, the same pairs of press/driving rolls are feeding the hose forward, thus checking the hoses tightness in a continuously moving section approach.

  • Patent number: 8746040
    Abstract: In a test pressurizing system for a hose such as fire hose, a device is arranged for bearing of a pressurized hose in a way that it is surrounded by protective wall parts. Further, a mechanism is provided on the inside of the wall parts for marking of holes and/or other damages that can be maneuvered automatically or manually via the operator so that at least some protective wall part protects the operator under pressurization. The marking device may be combined with a device for automatic detection of holes and damages. This can for example admit marking of the hose with high precision, and/or be part of a fully automated solution for detection and marking of holes in the hose.

  • Publication number: 20120266661
    Abstract: In a test pressurizing system for hose such as fire hose a device (10) is arranged for bearing of pressurized hose (1) in a way that it is surrounded by protective wall parts (20). Further there is provided a mechanism (40), arranged on the inside of the wall parts (20), for marking of holes and/or other damages that can be maneuvered automatically or manually via the operator so that at least some protective wall part always protects the operator under pressurization. The marking device may be combined with a device for automatic detection of holes and damages. This can for example admit marking with high precision, and/or be part of a fully automated solution for detection and marking of holes.
