A hose reel for coiling a hose includes a frame and a reel assembly rotatably connected to the frame about an axis of rotation. The reel assembly includes a drum assembly having a drum surface configured to receive and support the hose as the drum assembly is rotated about the axis of rotation to coil the hose around the drum surface. The drum assembly includes a hose fitting defining a fluid outlet. The hose fitting is configured to be connected to one end of the hose to fluidly connect the hose to the fluid outlet. The drum assembly defines a recess in the drum surface in which the fluid outlet of the hose fitting is disposed such that at least a portion of the fluid outlet is disposed between the axis of rotation and the drum surface.

The invention generally relates to ventilation systems and methods, and more particularly to selectively configurable climate control systems and methods for use in data centers and the like. A device includes a support element and a plurality of ducts connected to the support element. The device also includes a manifold in fluid communication with each one of the plurality of ducts and a plurality of valves. Each respective one of the plurality of valves is associated with a respective one of the plurality of ducts. Moreover, there is at least one actuator operatively connected to the plurality of valves, which is structured and arranged to individually actuate each one of the plurality of valves.

The Twist-Base Mount couples a single-screw, substrate-penetrating element with an elastically-deformable, concave base element that, once installed, acts as a spring, exerting a downward force upon the substrate around its circumference. Because the base element is rigidly attached to the substrate-penetrating element, a force applied to the Mount parallel to the plane of the substrate is offset by the pressure of the perimeter of the base element against the substrate, resulting in additional strength. The Mount's single-screw, self-boring element allows quick and easy installation. The spring-like base-element permits 360-degree rotation of the Mount while maintaining uniform pressure against the substrate, thereby preserving strength regardless of rotational positioning. The mount remains economical in relation to mounts of similar strength and rotational adjustability due to its insert-molded construction.

A cable storage device includes a first elongate bracket member attachable to a support structure and having a length extending between a first end and a second end. A second elongate bracket member is configured to be coupled to the first elongate bracket member proximate one of the first end or the second end such that the second elongate member extends in a different direction from the first elongate member when installed on the support structure. At least one set of a plurality of retaining mechanisms is configured to be coupled to the first and second elongate bracket members to receive and store a first cable. The at least one of the at least one set of the plurality of retaining mechanisms is adjustable along the first elongate bracket member or the second elongate bracket member. Methods of installing and making the cable storage device are also disclosed.

A multi-component hose and cable support device that provides vertical support to the hoses and cables extending from a tractor to its trailer to prevent such hoses and cables from coming into contact with the tractor, trailer, or any frame components and thereby avoiding damage to such hoses and cables. The present invention comprising first and second elongated support members designed and adapted to be longitudinally coupled to one another via trapezoidal fastener plates and a support member connector plate, a universal head mount, a base mounting assembly having a base mounting member and a vertical base support member, a plurality of anchor fasteners to secure the present invention to the tractor frame, and a plurality of aperture fasteners to connect the various invention components to one another.

A pipe support system includes a pipe base, a threaded bolt having a head, a deck supported above the pipe base, and a cap removably resting on the upper surface of the deck. Methods for installing the pipe support system include determining a height of a joint of pipe or pipe component above a ground surface; selecting a length of the pipe base in accordance with the height of the joint of pipe or pipe component above the ground surface; slidably placing the bolt into an inner diameter of the pipe base until a flanged housing is landed onto a top of the pipe base; rotating the head of the bolt relative to the pipe base in order to provide micro-adjustments to the height of the deck relative to the pipe base; and placing the joint of pipe or other pipe component onto the cap, thereby supporting the pipe component above the surface.
