ABSTRACT:
A combination support for carrying a length of hard suction hose and a pike pole on a fire pumper engine. The support includes an elongated open ended metal trough sized for supporting a length of hard suction hose placed within an open top of the trough. The hose may be secured in position with quick release straps attached to the trough. The trough is attached and supported horizontally disposed, with the open top of the trough facing upward, by two triangular mounting brackets connected between the trough and fire engine. Both mounting brackets are affixed to a vertical surface of the fire engine with bolts or the like. Each bracket is structured with a transverse opening, with the openings of the brackets being in alignment with one another when the brackets are mounted. The openings are sized for accepting and supporting a straight length of hollow tubing inserted and affixed therein, and spanning between the two brackets. The relatively small diameter tubing is sized to receive the handle of a pike pole, and thereby the pike pole may also be stored on the truck. Both the trough and the brackets are preferably made of extruded aluminum which has an anodized finish for economics of manufacturing, durability and appearance of the product.
