Firefighter's Mop-Up Knozzle
US Patent:
2008009, May 1, 2008
Filed:
Dec 20, 2007
Appl. No.:
12/004237
Inventors:
Darryl Gunter - Todo Santos, MX
George Gray - San Antonio TX, US
George Gray - San Antonio TX, US
International Classification:
A62C 3/00, A62C 31/22
US Classification:
239271000, 169054000
Abstract:
The present invention is an apparatus to be connected to the end of a fire hose that will allow a nozzle operator to perform mop-up fire fighting work without a shovel man and to extinguish both below-ground pockets of smoldering material and small surface fires. The apparatus incorporates a low-pressure, air-aspirated nozzle mounted on an elongated conduit that can be used for both the above-ground and below-ground work, can be used with fire foam, can extend the useful reach of fire hose equipment and can lengthen the use time for a given volume of water contained in a portable tank. Mop-up work refers to the process of extinguishing smoldering pockets of compacted organic material on and below the ground and small flare-ups that remain after the primary surface fire of a forest or grassland fire has swept through an area or been extinguished.
