A reel apparatus comprising a pipe; an outer flange assembly comprising two outer support walls connected to the pipe and wherein each outer support wall comprises an inner wall and an outer wall; an inner flange assembly comprising two inner support walls, wherein the inner flange assembly is rotated relative to the outer flange assembly and the pipe and wherein each inner support wall comprises an inner wall and an outer wall; and a motor assembly connected to the inner flange assembly and outer flange assembly, wherein the motor assembly is physically connect to the outer flange assembly and wherein the motor assembly is rotationally connected to the inner flange assembly.

The present invention is directed to a hose holder that nests individual hose loops separately in grooves formed on (or forming) a sloped surface. The holder includes a series of arched grooves, each groove provided at a different position along the slope of the surface such that adjacent grooves are at different vertical heights when the holder is mounted for use. Grooves further from the mounting point are lower than those nearer. In general, each groove is wide enough to hold and guide a single loop of hose and is configured for easy deployment of the hose when the hose is pulled away from the hose holder.

A display device including a housing; a rotatable roller accommodated in the housing; a rollable display adjusted in a drawn-out length from the housing according to rotation of the roller; and a controller configured to receive an input of a voice command, and vary a method of outputting a result of the voice command according to the drawn-out length of the rollable display.

A reel carrier that includes a pallet having a platform bound by a frame and a shaft. The carrier includes a reel that is supported on the shaft. The reel includes a round drum rotatable about the shaft, wherein the rotation may be in a forward and/or a reverse or backward rotational direction. The carrier also includes a motor operably coupled to cause rotation of the drum and may be further operably coupled to cause deployment and/or retraction of one or more wheels included with the pallet, wherein the motor also controls locomotion of the one or more wheels.

A cord reel assembly is provided that includes a plenum-rated enclosure with a cord reel secured in the enclosure where the enclosure forms an air tight seal from a plenum space, but is open to a finished space. Thus, a cord reel assembly is provided that includes a cord reel and a plenum rated enclosure. The cord reel has a base plate. The enclosure is open at a bottom edge. The base plate is secured in the enclosure.

A cord reel cable including a polymeric sheath with a conductive EMI drain and a method of manufacture therefor. The cord reel includes a cable comprising power and data conductors, as wells as a single drain wire which is grounded to a cord reel housing or spool or the like. The drain wire contacts an outer ETFE layer surrounding the cable in order to provide EMI shielding to the cable.

A hose guide for a hose reel deck box is provided. More specifically, the hose guide is a one piece, or unitary body, component. The unitary body hose guide is structured to snap-fit to one or two travel bars that are part of the unitary body of the hose reel deck box housing assembly. The hose guide preferably includes two semi-enclosed passages that are structured to be slidably coupled to the travel bars.

A cord winding module, comprising a rotary wheel (9) on which a cord (11) is wound and a stop button (4) working cooperatively with the rotary wheel. The cord winding module further comprises a spring wire (5) working cooperatively with the stop button as an elastic support device, and the stop button automatically brakes the rotary wheel under the action of the elastic force of the spring wire and prevents the rotary wheel from retracting the cord. The spring wire has an arc shape, or exhibits an arc shape when pre-pressed and deformed by the stop button.

A line-handling device is for letting out, winding up and locking a line. The line-handling device has: a first handle; a substantially flat reel which is rotatable relative to the first handle; a line-guiding part which is fixed relative to the first handle; a locking mechanism for locking the reel in a non-rotatable position; and an attachment element for a tautening device, the reel being displaceable relative to the first handle parallel to the rotational axis of the reel. A line-handling system is for suspending a line between two anchoring points and a method is for suspending a line between two anchoring points.

A cable management system for an overhead EVSE employs a lever-latch on the EV connector. A controller and motor mechanism is employed to lower the connector to an ADA compliant position or a pre-established height which is typically four feet. For an overhead system which employs a shuttle which slides along a track, the connector may then be grasped to pull the shuttle to a selected position along the track. The latch is depressible to extend the service cable to the connector so that the connector may be positioned and connected at the EV inlet. When the connector is unlatched from the EV inlet, the latch may be depressed to retract the connector to the pre-established height or ADA position. The latch requires a force of less than 5 lbs. for activation.
