A pool cleaning system for use in cleaning pools. The pool cleaning system contains a pool cleaning cart, a pool vacuum head, and a vehicle mounting bracket. The pool cleaning cart is designed to easily move various pool cleaning equipment from site to site. The pool vacuum head is configured to be attachable to a pole and be used to clean one or more surfaces of the pool located under the surface of the water. The mounting bracket is configured to allow the pool cleaning cart to secure to a vehicle.

A system for deploying a coil of spoolable pipe from a vessel includes a first tower configured to move longitudinally and transversely along a first track coupled to the vessel, a second tower configured to move longitudinally along a second track coupled to the vessel, and a coil drum assembly coupled to the first tower. The first tower is configured to insert the coil drum assembly transversely into an interior channel of the coil when the coil drum assembly is in a retracted position, the coil drum assembly is configured to support the coil when the coil drum assembly is in an extended position and rotate during deployment of the spoolable pipe, and the first tower and the second tower are configured to move the coil drum assembly vertically.

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.

A hose reel, for reeling up a hose for a fluid, is disclosed. The hose reel comprises a drum (100) for the hose to be reeled up on, the drum being moulded, the drum comprising, as integral moulded parts, a swivel connector (120) arranged at a central axis (110), the drum being rotatable about the central axis, a central flow path (130) coaxial with the central axis (110), and a radial flow path (140) extending radially from the central flow path; and a swivel (200) for a supply of the fluid, the swivel being connected to the swivel connector. A method for connecting a hose to the hose reel is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of: rotating the drum to align the connector (300) with the opening (410) of the housing (400); and connecting a hose to the connector, alternatively, before connecting the hose, releasing an already present hose.

A retracting device, vehicle provided therewith and method for retracting a hose. The retracting device includes a frame, a retraction drive connected to the frame for retracting the hose, a coupling configured to couple the frame to a container, and a displacement drive configured to displace the frame relative to the container such that the retracted hose can be placed in the container. The retracting device further includes a hose guide configured to guide the hose for retraction to the retraction drive, and the hose guide is displaceable in operative connection to the frame.

A hosed-reeling apparatus comprising a hose reel and a rack having a front opening for demountably receiving and supporting the hose reel. The hose reel has two sidewalls, a connection member concentrically coupling the two sidewalls, and two spindles extending laterally outward from the centers of the two sidewalls, respectively. The rack has at least a base framework, and a locking structure configurable between an unlock position and a lock position. The base framework has two upward facing channels on opposite sides thereof for demountably receiving the hose reel spindles. The channels are accessible from thereabove when the locking structure is at the unlock position, and the channels are inaccessible from thereabove when the locking structure is at the lock position. Each of the sidewalls of the hose reel may have at least one straight outer edge, allowing the hose reel sit stably on a horizontal surface or a ramp.

A manifold is part of the hydraulic system of a transport vehicle and controls both the product pump from the tank for unloading product and a hydraulically powered and controlled hose reel. The manifold includes a high pressure input port and a main return port tied into the hydraulic circuit on the vehicle, as well as two ports for the product pump and two ports for the hose reel. Control valves for both the product pump and the hose reel are mounted on and connected within the manifold block. The control valve for the hose reel preferably allows either forward (winding) or reverse (unwinding) of the hose reel under hydraulic power, as well as easy free spooling of the hose reel. A priority flow valve is also mounted on and connected within the manifold block, providing a higher flowrate to the product pump than to the hose reel motor.

Techniques for implementing a pipe deployment system that includes a pipe reel, in which the pipe reel includes reel ends and a reel drum and the pipe reel enables a pipe segment to be wrapped on the reel drum. The pipe deployment system includes a brake assembly with a brake wheel having a shaft socket keyed with flat inner surfaces, and a shaft adapter assembly, which includes an adapter head to be coupled between the pipe reel and the brake assembly. The adapter head includes an adapter shaft keyed with flat outer surfaces, in which the adapter shaft matingly interlocks with the shaft socket and is to be partially inserted through a reel end of the pipe reel, and a rotation control pin coupled to the adapter shaft, in which the rotation control pin is to be inserted between adjacent reel spokes in the reel end of the pipe reel.

A system includes a collapsible trailer frame and a lifting mechanism coupled to the collapsible trailer frame. The lifting mechanism is configured to raise or lower a coil of pipe or a reel of pipe. The system also includes a braking mechanism.

A reel system that includes a drum that receives a coil of flexible pipe. A first flange that removably couples to a first side of the drum. A second flange that removably couples to a second side of the drum. The first flange and the second flange secure the coil of flexible pipe to the drum.
