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.

A reinforced multi-layer hydraulic hose, including a plurality of anti-pressure layers with coiled wires or yarns at a winding angle of about 54.7° with respect to a longitudinal central axis of the hose, and at least one anti-tensile stress reinforcing layer that improves the resistance to the axial force of the hose and has at least one plait or coil of steel wires at a winding angle of less than 35°, in which the hose, owing to the high resistance to the axial force, can be used in a rectilinear configuration to supply a hydraulic fluid also in the presence of significant axial forces.

On example provides a containment sleeve for a pressurized piping system including a main body comprising a pliable fabric extending in longitudinal and transverse directions. The main body includes an exterior major surface and an opposing interior major surface, first and second opposed transverse edges, first and second opposed longitudinal edges, and a number of pleats extending from the interior major surface, each pleat having opposing sides of the longitudinal pleat being sewn together with breakaway stitching at a base of the pleat at the interior major surface. A number of transversely extending straps disposed on the exterior major surface between the first and second longitudinal edges, the straps to secure the main body about a portion of the piping system with the interior major surface facing the piping system.

An unbonded flexible pipe with a length and bore and an offshore installation are disclosed. The pipe comprises an internal pressure sheath, at least one metallic armouring layer surrounding the internal pressure sheath and at least one additional layer surrounding the metallic armouring layer. The metallic armouring layer comprises helically wound armouring elements which are at least partly covered by a viscous fluid having a kinematic viscosity of at least about 1000 cSt (ASTM D445 or ASTM D2170). The at least one additional layer surrounding the metallic armouring layer provides a gas escape route radially outwards from the metallic armouring layer beyond an outermost layer of the least one additional layer or to a lengthwise gas escape path in or between the at least one additional layer.

A limb for a breathing circuit manufactured from very thin walled polymer materials has an elongate axial reinforcing spine lying freely inside the conduit and fixed to each end connector. The spine is laterally compliant but axially stiff. The spine provides resistance to tensile and compressive loads on the conduit, including that induced by prevailing internal pressures.

A subsea pipeline has a steel pipe surrounded by a thermally-insulating coating system having at least one thermal insulation layer. The thermal insulation layer has a thermally-insulating matrix in which elongate tensile elements of a thermoplastic polymer, such as monofilament yarns, are embedded. The pipe is preheated to promote bonding between the matrix and the elongate elements and between successive layers of the coating system.

A containment sleeve for use with a pressurized piping system including a pliable fabric sheet having first and second opposing longitudinal edges, first and second opposing transverse edges, and first and second opposing major surfaces respectively defining an interior and exterior surfaces. At least one pleat extends between the first and second transverse edges, the pleat being in a normally closed position to define the interior surface with a first surface area. The sheet of pliable fabric to secure about a portion of a pressurized piping system with the interior major surface facing the pipe so as to form a sleeve having an initial interior volume there about. In response to a rupture of the pressurized piping system within the interior volume, the pleat to expand to an open position to expand the interior surface to a second surface area to increase the interior volume from the initial volume.

The disclosed system may include a fluidic system including a connector including a first side and a second side, each of the first side and the second side including a plurality of pins, a fluidic breakout configured to interface pneumatic tubing with a fluidic control system, pneumatic tubing including a plurality of fluidic channels, a first end configured to interface with the first side of the connector, and a second end configured to interface with the fluidic breakout, and a haptic feedback system including a plurality of actuators, each actuator coupled to a respective actuation tube configured to interface with a respective pin on the second side of the connector. Various other systems and methods are also disclosed.

A vacuum-insulated line (200) has an inner and an outer corrugated hose (101, 102) which are separated from one another by an evacuated intermediate space (103). One of the corrugated hoses is encased with a wound hose (201). The wound hose (201) prevents the line (200) from becoming elongated when it is charged with pressure during the transport of a medium. The wound hose (201) furthermore protects the line against external mechanical loads or damage. The wound hose simultaneously protects the corrugated hoses against excessive bending.
