ABSTRACT:
The flexible hose comprises a bellows hose wall 1 composed of an inner wall 2 and an outer wall 3 each made of a soft resin and a spiral hard reinforcement 4 interposed therebetween. As the hose contracts, a spiral groove 7 is formed inside of the hose. The inner wall 2 is not partially bonded or fused with the outer wall 3 and the hard spiral reinforcement 4 to form unbonded sites or fragments 8. As the hose contracts, the unbonded fragments 8 are separated from the outer wall 3 and the spiral hard enforcement 4 and move to the inward direction of the hose, and close the spiral groove 7. Therefore, even a fluid flows to any longitudinal direction, the flexible hose reduces a flow resistance.
