Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 17
Claim 1
Independent Claim 62 words
A high burst strength flexible composite reinforced hose for conveying fluids under pressure comprising a synthetic polymeric core tube, a fibrous reinforcing material about the core tube having synthetic filaments having a tenacity of from 12 to about 25 grams per denier with an elongation at break of about 2% to about 7% and a synthetic polymeric sheath covering the reinforcing material.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 62 words
A high burst strength flexible composite reinforced hose for conveying fluids under pressure comprising a synthetic polymeric core tube, a fibrous reinforcing material about the core tube having synthetic filaments having a tenacity of from 12 to about 25 grams per denier with an elongation at break of about 2% to about 7% and a synthetic polymeric sheath covering the reinforcing material.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 18 words
The composite hose of claim 1 wherein the core tube and adjacent fibrous layer are adhesively bonded together.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 12 words
The composite hose of claim 1 wherein the core tube is nylon.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 24 words
The composite hose of claim 1 wherein a plurality of an aromatic polyamide fibrous reinforcing material are disposed between the core tube and sheath.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 40 words
The composite hose of claim 1 wherein the layer of reinforcing material adjacent to the core tube is braided aromatic polyamide filaments having a tenacity of 25 grams and another braided layer has filaments of poly(ethylene terrephthalate) ester or nylon.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 21 words
The composite hose of claim 4 wherein at least one of the layers of fibrous reinforcing material comprises helically wound filaments.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 39 words
The composite hose of claim 1 having a core tube, a first layer of the said fibrous material adjacent to the core tube, a braided layer of poly(ethylene terrephthalate) ester covering the said first layer and a polyurethane sheath.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 39 words
The hose of claim 1 wherein one or more layers of the said fibrous material are disposed about the core tube and a reinforcing layer comprising poly(alkylene terephthalate) ester is disposed between the said fibrous material and the sheath.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 12 words
The composite hose of claim 1 wherein the core tube is polyurethane.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 72 words
The composite hose of claim 1 wherein a plurality of layers of reinforcing fibers are disposed about the core tube and at least one of the layers is formed of composite fibers having a tenacity of from about 7 to 11 grams per denier and another layer consists of fibers having a tenacity of from 12 to 25 grams per denier and an elongation at break of about 2% to about 7%.
