Apparatus to store a drogue hose on an aircraft are disclosed herein. An example apparatus includes a drum to rotate in a first direction to coil a hose and a second direction to uncoil the hose, a carriage at least partially surrounding the drum, the carriage including rollers to guide the hose as the hose is coiled and uncoiled, the carriage having an outer surface covering the rollers and wheels coupled to the carriage, the wheels to facilitate movement of the carriage along a length of the drum as the drum rotates.

The air hose retention device includes a first connector pivotally engaged to a top and an outer spool having a receiving area. A second side of a housing is rotatably engaged to a first side. A cable is wound on the outer spool. A spring is disposed in the receiving area. Pulling of the cable causes rotation of the second side in a first direction and the coiling of the spring. Movement of the cable towards the housing uncoils the spring winding the cable about the outer spool and rotating the second side in a second direction. The cable has a releasable connector which is engaged to a connector hose of a trailer. The air hose retention device may be easily disconnected from both a cab and a connector hose for storage or transportation in a cab of a truck during periods of nonuse.

Disclosed is a two-in-one cleaning apparatus. The two-in-one cleaning apparatus includes a positioning assembly, a booster pump, an automatic hose reel, an intermediate connecting rod, and a spray gun body. The booster pump, the automatic hose reel, the intermediate connecting rod, and the spray gun body are all detachably mounted on the positioning assembly. The booster pump is provided with a water inlet and a water outlet, a water inlet pipe is arranged at the water inlet of the booster pump, and the water outlet of the booster pump is connected to the automatic hose reel. The automatic hose reel is provided with a mounting bracket, the positioning assembly is provided with a positioning support plate matching the mounting bracket, and the automatic hose reel is mounted on the positioning assembly through matching between the mounting bracket and the positioning support plate. The spray gun body is detachably connected to the booster pump and the intermediate connecting rod, respectively. The disclosure has the beneficial effects of being convenient to carry, high in stability, wide in application range, capable of meeting different use requirements, convenient to dismount and mount, simple in structure and convenient to operate.

A pressure assisted washer or pressure washer with hose reel and motor pump assembly. The hose reel defines a bore in which a motor pump assembly is disposed. The hose reel comprises a cylinder having an aperture through which pressurized fluid can be accessed through a coupling in fluid communication with a pump. The pump has a rotating collar.

An automatic line reel includes a flexible line wound onto a motor-driven reel assembly. A processor controlling the motor detects contact pressure between the flexible line and a triangular pressure transducer, automatically extending the flexible line when the contact pressure exceeds a preset threshold. Line extension stops when contact pressure falls below a second preset threshold. The flexible line may be retracted and rewound around the reel assembly by activation of a switch on a wireless remoted control, by a switch on the automatic line reel, or by activation of a smart phone application program in data communication with the processor controlling the reel assembly. A reel assembly is optionally configured to maintain uninterrupted fluid communications through the automatic line reel as the reel assembly rotates. The reel assembly may optionally be configured to maintain uninterrupted electrical signal communication through the automatic line reel.

A system for dispensing a flexible hose includes a hose dispensing carousel having a frame, a spool support plate rotatably mounted to the frame and having a plurality of spool axles for rotatably supporting a plurality of spools of hose, and a lock adapted to fix a position of the spool support plate relative to the frame in a plurality of discrete positions. The system further includes a guide defining an opening adapted to receive a free end of a hose held on one of the plurality of spools. The guide defines at least one rotatable bearing surface positioned at the opening, and is adapted to guide the hose toward a tool for performing a manufacturing operation on the hose.

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

A system includes a frame and a first pair of rollers coupled to a first side of the frame. The first pair of rollers is configured to support a first end of a pipe reel. The system also includes a first cradle disposed longitudinally between the first pair of rollers and a second pair of rollers coupled to a second side of the frame. The second pair of rollers is configured to support a second end of a pipe reel. The system also includes a second cradle disposed longitudinally between the second pair of rollers, a pipe guide coupled to a third side of the frame between the first and second sides, a pipe brake coupled to the frame, and a pipe re-spooler coupled to the frame.

The motorized hose reel is a storage device. The motorized hose reel is configured for use with a hose. The motorized hose reel stores the hose. The motorized hose reel deploys the hose for use. The motorized hose reel retracts the hose for storage. The motorized hose reel comprises a hose structure, a spool structure, a control circuit, and a personal data device. The spool structure stores the hose structure. The control circuit is an electrically powered device. The control circuit deploys the hose structure from the spool structure for use. The control circuit retracts onto the spool structure for storage. The personal data device controls the operation of the control circuit.

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.
