A hose with connector end fittings for carrying pressurized fluid having longitudinally displaced internal ribs. These ribs run along inside walls of the hose to prevent flow termination due to kinking or compression.

Kink resistant hose for spraying water

This invention pertains to a method for attaching a coupling to a hose. The method includes providing a hose having longitudinal ribs on is inner circumference, associating a coupling with an end of the hose, and joining the coupling to the hose by performing a deformation operation, wherein the ribs have size, number and hardness limited to what the hose wall thickness and softness can absorb such that no leakage occurs after the deformation operation.

Making a kink impeding hose

A kink resistant flexible plastic or rubber hose for spraying water is provided having a plurality of functions including resistance to hose kinking, water delivery through the hose when kinked and equalization of water pressure on both sides of the kink causing the hose to snap open. The hose is adapted for coupling to a pressurized water supply for delivery of water through the hose and a spraying device is coupled to the other end to provide sufficient back pressure for equalization and opening of the kinked hose during delivery of a pressurized stream of water. The hose is especially suited for use as a garden hose and for other water delivery purposes in boat, camper, car, patio, potable and other environments.
