Subject invention concerns a device for fire fighting and more precisely a device which makes it possible to connect a water hose to water-points of different kinds.
When fighting smaller fires in homes and offices portable fire extinguishes containing powder or liquid are often used, which always must be loaded to be able to function. The big problem is then to supervise that they really are loaded and it is very common that they are useless when really needed.
According to experts the best means for fire fighting is water, but it is often difficult to bring water to the seat of fire. It is thus uncommon to have permanent stand pipes provided with a fire-hose in homes and offices and in addition the seat of fire may be so situated that the stand pipe cannot be reached.
It would therefore be an advantage to be able to use alternative water-points for fighting fires, but this has not been possible as the designs of the water-points vary very much. It has thus not been possible to connect one and the same water hose to the different water-points. It would not be possible to arrange one water hose at each water-point in a home for economical as well as aesthetic reasons.
