A combination loading system and hose bed for a firefighting vehicle includes a platform and an actuating mechanism configured to pivot the platform between a substantially vertical stowed position, a substantially horizontal position, and a downwardly angled position. The platform includes a bottom wall and a pair of side walls extending substantially perpendicular to the bottom wall. When in the stowed position, the platform closes the substantially open rear end of the firefighting vehicle, and when in the substantially horizontal position, the platform can serve as a hose bed allowing firefighters to easily grab hose from a standing position. When in the downwardly angled position, the platform can serve as a ramp allowing the firefighters to wheel equipment on and off the vehicle. The platform may also be provided with a crane extension for lifting heavy objects.

A nozzle positioning includes a primary pole, a grasping element supported on the upper end of the pole and configured to secure the pole to a horizontal surface, and a nozzle mount supported on the grasping element. The nozzle mount is configured to support a nozzle in a substantially horizontal position, and may allow the nozzle to rotate and swivel. The grasping element may be in the form of a hook configured to fit over a window ledge or similar structure.

Storage assemblies and bucket accessories for material-handling vehicles are provided. One assembly includes a storage compartment consisting of a planar shelf extending along the top edge of the bucket, a back wall extending upwardly from a rear edge of the shelf, and a pair of side walls that extend perpendicularly to opposite ends of the shelf and back wall. A pair of free-standing, elongated orientation rods project upwardly from the top of the back wall of the storage compartment. Tie-down straps at the end of the orientation rods are provided for securing material in both the bucket and the storage compartment. A pair of rack elements for supporting opposite ends of elongated items such as pipes may also be provided. One of the hooks may be secured to one of the orientation rods and the other hook may be secured to the roll bar of the vehicle.

A control system for a fire fighting device is provided. The control system may include a controller configured to operably connect over a network to a first valve controller controlling a status of a first valve in response to an input from the controller, a second valve controlling a status of a second valve in response to an input from the controller, and a governor operably controlling a power source in response to an input from the controller. The control system may further comprise a touchscreen display operably connected to the controller, the display configured to display the status of the first and second valves and configured to receive an input from a user, wherein controller generates a manipulatable icon displayed on the touchscreen display, a manipulation of the icon generating the input from the controller to the first valve controller.

A sleeve keeper bracket for use with a wrist accessory worn by a user comprises a first member coupled to the wrist accessory, and a second member coupled to the first member and adapted to extend away from the wrist accessory and adapted to retain a long sleeve of a garment worn by the user from obscuring the wrist accessory.
摘要:
A firefighting apparatus comprising a controller, and a hydraulic pump driven by a power-take-off and operable to supply a hydraulic fluid under pressure. A water pumping subsystem is powered by the hydraulic fluid and operable to supply water under pressure to a conduit, wherein a flow rate of water is substantially regulated by controlling the hydraulic fluid input to the water pumping subsystem. A chemical foam subsystem is powered by the hydraulic fluid and operable to inject foam at a predetermined flow rate into the conduit, wherein the flow rate of the foam is substantially regulated by controlling the hydraulic fluid input to the chemical foam subsystem. An electrical power generator subsystem is powered by the hydraulic fluid and operable to generate electrical power, wherein the frequency and voltage of the generated power is substantially regulated by controlling the hydraulic fluid input to the electrical power generator subsystem. A hydraulic fluid cooling device receives and cools the hydraulic fluid returned from the water pumping subsystem, chemical foam subsystem, and electrical power generator subsystem. A hydraulic reservoir further stores the cooled hydraulic fluid.

A system resides on a fire truck carrying at least one fire hose in a hose bay. The system comprises a target device coupled to the at least one fire hose, a proximity sensor coupled to the hose bay and operable to detect the presence and absence of the target device, and a controller coupled to the proximity sensor and control valve and operable to enable opening of the control valve in response to the proximity sensor detecting the absence of the target device indicative of a substantially complete removal of the at least one fire hose from the hose bay of the fire truck, and operable to disable opening of the control valve in response to the proximity sensor detecting the presence of the target device indicative of the at least one fire hose remaining in the hose bay of the fire truck.
