A cable storage assembly is provided including a first cable configured to be used outdoors, a second cable configured to be used outdoors and indoors, a connector, an external cable storage reel, and a housing. The external cable storage reel defines a first flange, a second flange, and a first space between the first flange and the second flange. The external cable storage reel is configured to receive the first cable within the first space, and the housing defines an internal volume and includes at least one opening. The housing is configured to receive an extra portion of the first cable within the internal volume. The first cable extends from the first space into the internal volume through the opening(s). The first cable is connected to the second cable within the internal volume using the connector. The second cable is configured to extend from the internal volume through the opening(s).

In accordance with example embodiments a hose reel system including a layout guide is provided.

A multi-functional module system for a mobile device includes a docketing station and housing attachable to the mobile device. The housing includes an integrated wireless charging coil, and a plug head integrally formed with or attached to the housing. The plug head establishes a direct electrical/data connection between the housing and a port of the mobile device. The charging coil aligns with and charges a wireless-enabled accessory placed adjacent to the housing. The docking station includes an electrical connection interface to transmit power and/or data between the housing, the mobile device and a removable electronic module (REM) connected to the docking station. At least one port of the housing transfers power/data between an external device plugged into the port and the housing and/or the mobile device and/or the connected REM. The docking station provides a docking interface between the REM and housing via a magnetic coupling.

A reeling device including a housing, a retraction mechanism, a shaft rotatable by the retraction mechanism, a first drum coupled to the shaft, and a second drum coupled to the shaft, wherein the second drum has an inner diameter greater than an inner diameter the first drum. A first wire rope is attached around the first drum and secured to a first position on an electrical cable with a saddle clamp. A second wire rope is attached around the second drum and secured to a first position on an electrical cable with a saddle clamp, the second position being distal to the first position.

A hose and reel system that includes a reel assembly that is rotatably mounted within a housing. The reel assembly includes an accumulator drum having an inner chamber and the drum is coupled at opposite ends to disc elements. The housing can include a hose guide element for guiding a hose that is spooled about the outer surface of the drum and, if desired, a pair of mandible elements.

A cable reel of the present disclosure can include two flanges and a central drum being independently rotatable from one another. The drum, which can be configured to receive a cable, can be mounted on an axle. The two flanges can be rotationally mounted on the axle at opposing distal ends of the axle. Bearings in the flanges can allow for a full rotation of the flanges about the axle.

A dual-bearing reel includes a reel body, a handle, a spool shaft, a spool, a clutch mechanism, and a level winding mechanism. The clutch mechanism switches between a clutch-on state and a clutch-off state. The level winding mechanism has a line guide unit, a moving part, and a switching mechanism. The line guide unit moves along an axial direction of the spool shaft. The moving part moves along the axial direction of the spool shaft. The switching mechanism switches between a coupled state in which the line guide unit and the moving part are coupled, and a decoupled state in which the line guide unit and the moving part are decoupled, in accordance with the switching between the on state and the off state.

A chalk reel includes a housing defining a chalk chamber and an opening from the chalk chamber; a spool positioned within the chalk chamber; and a line wound on the spool and extending through the opening, the line having a width of dimension X. The spool comprises an axial hub and a sidewall. The sidewall comprises a plurality of apertures extending through the sidewall from a first face distal from the axial hub to a second face proximal to the axial hub. Each of the plurality of apertures having a maximum width of dimension Y. The dimension Y is sized so that no loops of the line may fit through each of the plurality of apertures.

A transfer device for limiting a twisting of a link between an end of the fixed link with respect to a fixed part and an end of the fixed link with respect to a revolving part that can revolve with respect to the fixed part about an axis of rotation, the transfer device for a link includes a composite drum comprising a set of drums aligned on the axis of rotation about which the link can be wound, the set of drums comprising a fixed drum intended to be secured to the fixed part in rotation about the axis of rotation, a revolving drum intended to be able to revolve about the axis x with respect to the fixed part and a set of at least one loose drum interposed between the fixed drum and the revolving drum, each loose drum being free to rotate about the axis of rotation with respect to the revolving drum and the fixed drum and having a height on the axis.

A robot can include a partition wound about a partition rotation axis extending in a first direction, a plurality of body parts surrounding an accommodation space in which the partition is accommodated, and a roller part having a plurality of rollers rotatably mounted on at least some of the plurality of body parts.
