A vertical pipe deployment system that includes a flexible pipe deployed vertically in a non-linear manner. A first clamp couples to and supports the flexible pipe. A second clamp couples to the flexible pipe. The second clamp laterally changes a direction of the flexible pipe as the flexible pipe descends vertically between the first clamp and the second clamp.

A fluid delivery system includes one or more smart hoses. A smart hose of the one or more smart hoses includes a fluid conduit configured to deliver a fluid. The smart hose further includes a first electrically conductive element configured to deliver electricity through a length of the smart hose.

The invention involves a modular elevated hose hanger system. The system includes a vertical support member suitable for insertion into a ground surface for elevating the hose hanger and preventing unwanted rotation of the hose hanger about the vertical axis of the vertical support member. The hose hanger is constructed of a cylindrical segment having features for interlocking with the vertical support member. A modular face plate cooperates with the cylindrical segment to provide structural support to the cylindrical segment while being easily removable and replaceable.

A concentric, multi-layer laminated wrap for protection of plastic pipes including up to 60-minute fire endurance, low flame spread, low smoke, and toxic products of combustion. The laminated wrap can withstand temperatures up to 2000° F. for up to a period of 60 minutes. The concentric laminated wrap includes an inner support layer that provides strength, an intermediate fire protective coating layer that provides fire, heat, and high temperature protection, and an outer top coating layer that provides resistance to abrasion, impact, and environmental factors including water, salt water, hydrocarbons, chemicals, and gases. The protection to plastic pipes and pipe appliances is provided by the fire protective coating layer that is applied directly to the pipe or as a layer in the laminated wrap around the pipe. The present invention is disclosed for fire, heat, and high temperature protection of pipes, including linear pipes and pipe appliances such as flanges, couplings, valves, joints, tees, and bends.

Medical tube can have a continuous inner layer having a continuous outer layer thereon, in which the inner layer includes a polyolefin such as a polyethylene or polypropylene or a functionalized polyolefin. The outer layer can include a thermoplastic polymer such as one or more of, or a blend including, a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), a thermoplastic olefin (TPO), a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), a styrene-containing thermoplastic elastomer (S-TPE), a polyolefin elastomer (POE), a styrenic blocking copolymer (SBC). Advantageously, the outer layer and/or the inner layer do not include polyvinyl chloride. Such tubing can be used as medical device such as with infusion sets.

A hose nozzle assembly which is capable of heating water comprising an internal heating chamber with at least one heating element. The hose nozzle assembly is able to heat water from a common garden hose with the ability to control both flow rates and temperature.
