EXTENSION ASSEMBLY FOR A FIRE SUPPRESSION SPRAY NOZZLE
An extension assembly for a fire suppression spray nozzle is provided. A tube having a first end and a second end is welded to a female hose coupler at the tube’s first end. A male hose coupler is welded to the second end of the tube. A support sleeve connected to the female hose coupler inserts into a fire suppression spray nozzle or another instance of the extension assembly to provide for easy alignment of the threaded connectors and for adding strength to the connection.
Firewater monitor brake system and method
System and method relates to a firewater monitor brake system, comprising a vertical locking disc collar adapted to be affixed externally or internally to a horizontal swivel of a firewater monitor system; a horizontal locking disc collar adapted to be affixed externally or internally to a vertical swivel of the firewater monitor system; a vertical brake mount adapted to be affixed to a horizontal swivel mounting pad of the firewater monitor system; a horizontal brake mount adapted to be affixed to a vertical swivel mounting pad of the firewater monitor system; a vertical brake system; wherein the vertical brake system is affixed to the vertical brake mount such that a portion of the vertical brake system is disposed around a portion of the vertical locking disc collar; a horizontal brake system, wherein the horizontal brake system is affixed to the horizontal brake mount such that a portion of the horizontal brake system is disposed around a portion of the horizontal locking disc collar; and a master cylinder adapted to be affixed to a tiller bar of the firewater monitor system, wherein the master cylinder is connected to and/or coupled to a lever system and wherein the master cylinder is connected to and or coupled to the vertical brake system and/or the horizontal brake system via an actuation system. Methods for making and using the system are also disclosed.

Firefighting utility tool
A firefighting utility tool including a handle member and a tool head. The handle member has one of a variety of tool heads attached to a bottom side thereof. The handle is a solid tubular member with a hollow interior that allows water to pass therethrough. The top end of the handle member has a hose coupling located thereon such that a hose can be connected and water can flow into the hollow interior of the handle member. There are a plurality of holes located in the handle member toward the bottom end of the handle member. The holes allow water to exit the handle. The tool allows water to pass through the handle and out of the plurality of holes such that the water can be directed toward a fire without interfering with normal operation of the tool.
Auxiliary fire defense system
Aspects of the disclosure include providing additional sources of water, and additional means for delivering the additional water, as needed in a fire emergency. A system in accordance with an aspect of the present disclosure provides pumping means, conduit for delivering water from a local source to the pump, and conduit for delivering the water as needed to fight a fire.

Sprinkler support frame coupling device
A sprinkler support frame coupling device that is capable of allowing a horizontal bar having a square section so as to install a sprinkler thereon to be simply and firmly fitted to a support frame mounted on a ceiling. The sprinkler support frame coupling device is configured to allow a lever of a bracket to be pushed by a user's hand so that the bracket is firmly coupled to a support frame.
IMPROVED E-EXTINGUISHING LANCE
An extinguishing lance for electrical devices that are burning, has a holding portion having a handle part for operation, an extinguishing-agent feed having a coupling device for connecting a pressure hose for extinguishing agent, and a tubular extinguishing portion, from the free end of which extinguishing agent is introduced, under pressure, into the object that is burning. The extinguishing portion tapers to a point at the free end and has a constricted, hollow flow cross-section for extinguishing agent conducted under pressure. The extinguishing portion and its tapered, additionally hardened end are produced from stainless steel. The extinguishing portion has, at least in the region of the holding portion, a voltage-insulating coating, which is electrically insulating for electric voltages U ≥ 500 V. Thus, the minimum legal requirements for protection against thermal hazards, against mechanical overloads, and against electrical hazards are reliably met.
NOZZLE PLUGS FOR A DELUGE FIRE PROTECTION SYSTEM
A nozzle plug for a deluge fire protection system having nozzles connected with a pipe network, the nozzles having a pipe connection with a nozzle chamber and a nozzle orifice allowing for the flow of water toward a deflector for dispersal, includes a plug body configured to fit within the nozzle chamber and/or nozzle orifice and form a seal of the nozzle orifice; a deformable component connected with the plug body configured to retain the seal of the nozzle orifice up to a predetermined pressure level above atmospheric pressure within the pipe network and to deform when a current pressure with the pipe network exceeds the predetermined pressure level and release the seal of the nozzle orifice to allow for the flow of water through the nozzle orifice; and wherein the deformable component is configurable to calibrate a deformation point corresponding to the predetermined pressure level.
