A hose storage container designed to reduce exposure of the stored hose to UV light. The container includes an enclosure unit with a removable lid, a fastening line, and a conduit. The conduit passes through the sidewall of the enclosure and is comprised two threaded points, one on each end of the conduit, and the connection between them. The conduit is constructed of a UV resistant material and serves to increase protection of the hose from UV light and other elements.

The present invention relates generally to medical equipment, more particularly, the use of fluid hoses coupling tanks to cannulas, as part of medical gas therapy, such as oxygen therapy. The invention describes a collection system for managing excess flexible hose that a patient might need to wear for medical reasons such as home oxygen medical therapy. It comprises a non-spooling roller system attached to a receptacle for collecting excess hose into the receptacle and extraction from the receptacle, and a power system to power and control the roller system, and design features that optimize the collection and extraction.

A electric vehicle cable mounting system includes a driving unit including a rotary disc and allowing a charging cable to be released from a side in accordance with a rotation motion of a rotary disc, a guide unit provided behind the driving unit and allowing the driving unit to move in a vertical direction in accordance with a rotation motion of the rotary disc, and a controller controlling the driving unit and the guide unit such that the charging cable is automatically released in an electric vehicle charge mode and is automatically returned in an electric vehicle charge standby mode.

An ergonomic hose load platform for a fire fighting vehicle is provided. The ergonomic hose load platform includes a platform and at least one pivot mount defining a pivot axis. The platform is pivotable about the pivot axis to open and close the platform.

A cord dispenser includes a body having a body outer wall and an inner chamber. The inner chamber is operable to contain a length of cord, the cord having a first cord end. A retaining mechanism is rigidly affixed to the body outer wall of the dispenser. The retaining mechanism is sized to removably secure a light source. A first through-hole is disposed in the body through which the first cord end is operable to be extended and to be securely attached to the light source.

An apparatus that may be used for the display and storage of decorative lights is disclosed. The apparatus may include a housing that includes a hollow body portion defining an interior and a substantially cylindrical neck portion that defines an axis that extends into the body portion, the neck portion further defining an opening for accessing the interior. The apparatus may further include a lid assembly configured to be removably coupled with the housing. The lid assembly may include a fixed portion configured to be removably coupled with the housing, and a movable portion movably coupled with the fixed portion. The movable portion may move from an open configuration to a closed configuration to alter the size of an opening provided through the lid assembly.

A retractable vacuum hose system may include a hose having a distal end portion and a proximal end portion and a hose engagement terminal for selectively engaging the proximal end portion to secure the proximal end portion and provide power through the hose.

An ergonomic hose load platform for a fire fighting vehicle is provided. The ergonomic hose load platform includes a platform and at least one pivot mount defining a pivot axis. The platform is pivotable about the pivot axis to open and close the platform.

A packing device for organizing objects with cords attached includes a tube and a pulling assembly operatively coupled to the tube. The pulling assembly is adapted to pull the cords inside the tube to avoid tangling and assist managing the objects. The pulling assembly includes a pulling string with a puller attached at one end and a fastener attached at the other end. The fastener attaches the cords to the pulling assembly. The fastener can be attached to different position on the string to accommodate cords of different lengths. The puller is pulled and then placed in a locked position. The puller can be a different fastener that is attached to an anchor of the tube in the locked position. Alternatively, the puller moves in a track incorporated in the tube. The track can further incorporate a lip for locking the puller in position.
