Abstract
A firefighter training assembly includes a plurality of firefighting tools which each has a handle and a head. The head associated with each of the plurality of firefighting tools has a unique structure with respect to each other. Each of the plurality of firefighting tools includes an outer layer comprised of a lightweight material for wielding the firefighting tools in a training environment. Each of the firefighting tools includes a central core comprised of a weighted material to simulate the weight of genuine firefighting tools in the training environment.
Claims14
A firefighter training assembly which includes replicas of firefighting tools that can be employed in a training environment, said assembly comprising:
- a plurality of firefighting tools, each of said plurality of firefighting tools having a handle and a head, said head associated with each of said plurality of firefighting tools having a unique structure with respect to each other, each of said plurality of firefighting tools including an outer layer, each of said firefighting tools including a central core being comprised of a weighted material wherein said plurality of firefighting tools is configured to simulate the weight of genuine firefighting tools in the training environment;
- wherein said plurality of firefighting tools includes a flathead axe, a pick head axe, a pike pole and a halligan bar;
- wherein said handle associated with each of said plurality of firefighting tools has a top end and a bottom end;
- wherein said central core associated with each of said flathead axe and said pick head axe has a lower end and an upper end, said central core associated with each of said flathead axe and said pick head axe has a series of bends being spaced apart and distributed from an upper end of said central core toward a lower end of said central core, said bends defining a first portion being perpendicularly oriented with a leg portion and a second portion being perpendicularly oriented with said first portion and a third portion being perpendicularly oriented with said second portion having said upper end of said central core being directed toward said leg portion.
A firefighter training assembly which includes replicas of firefighting tools that can be employed in a training environment, said assembly comprising:
- a plurality of firefighting tools, each of said plurality of firefighting tools having a handle and a head, said head associated with each of said plurality of firefighting tools having a unique structure with respect to each other, each of said plurality of firefighting tools including an outer layer, each of said firefighting tools including a central core being comprised of a weighted material wherein said plurality of firefighting tools is configured to simulate the weight of genuine firefighting tools in the training environment, said plurality of firefighting tools including a flathead axe, a pick head axe, a pike pole and a halligan bar, said handle associated with each of said plurality of firefighting tools having a top end and a bottom end, said handle associated with each of said flathead axe and a pick head axe being flared adjacent to said top end, said handle associated with each of said flathead axe and said pick head axe being curved adjacent to said bottom end, said head associated with said flathead axe having a first end, a second end and a bottom surface extending between said first end and said second end, said first end tapering to an edge, said second end being planar, said top end of said handle associated with said flathead axe being coupled to said bottom surface of said head associated with said flathead axe, said head associated with said pick head axe having a primary end, a secondary end and a lower surface extending between said primary end and said secondary end, said primary end tapering to an edge, said lower surface curving upwardly at said secondary end such that said secondary end tapers to a point, said top end of said handle associated with said pick head axe being coupled to said lower surface of said head associated with said pick head axe, said head associated with said pike pole having a lower end, an upper end and an outer surface extending between said lower end and said upper end, said outer surface tapering between said lower end and said upper end such that said upper end tapers to a point, said outer surface having a finger curving downwardly toward said lower end, said finger being positioned closer to said upper end than said lower end, said top end of said handle associated with said pike pole being attached to said lower end, said handle associated with said pike pole having a raised portion extending from said bottom end toward said top end, said head associated with said halligan bar having a base and an adze being perpendicularly oriented with said base, said head associated with said halligan bar having a pick extending laterally away from said base, said pick being perpendicularly oriented with said adze, said top end of said handle associated with said halligan bar being formed into a bottom end of said base, said halligan bar having a fork being disposed on said bottom end of said handle associated with said halligan bar, said fork having a pair of curved tines each extending away from said bottom end of said handle associated with said halligan bar;
- wherein said outer layer associated with each of said plurality of firefighting tools is comprised of an impact resistant material wherein each of said plurality of firefighting tools is configured to resist being damaged during training;
- wherein said central core associated with each of said flathead axe and said pick head axe has a lower end and an upper end, said central core associated with each of said flathead axe and said pick head axe has a series of bends being spaced apart and distributed from an upper end of said central core toward a lower end of said central core, said bends defining a first portion being perpendicularly oriented with a leg portion and a second portion being perpendicularly oriented with said first portion and a third portion being perpendicularly oriented with said second portion having said upper end of said central core being directed toward said leg portion, each of said first portion and said second portion and said third portion of said central core associated with each of said flathead axe and said pick head axe being located within said head associated with a respective of said flathead axe and said pick head axe, said leg portion of said central core associated with each of said flathead axe and said pick head axe extending downwardly in said handle associated with a respective one of said flathead axe and said pick head axe;
- wherein said central core associated with said pike pole extends along said handle associated with said pike pole and into said head associated with said pike pole, said central core associated with said pike pole curving into said finger on said head associated with said pike pole;
- and
- wherein said central core associated with said halligan bar has a central section extending through said handle associated with said halligan bar, said central core associated with said halligan bar having an adze section angling away from said central section such that said adze section extends into said adze of said head associated with said halligan bar, said central core associated with said halligan bar having a pick section angling away from said central section such that said pick section extends into said pick of said head associated with said halligan bar, said central core associated with said halligan bar having a pair of fork sections each being distally positioned on said central section when respect to said adze section, each of said fork sections extending into a respective one of said curved tines of said fork associated with said halligan bar.
