UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
JACOB M. ESSER, OF MADISON, WISCONSIN.
HOSE-REEL.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, JACOB M. Essen, a citizen of the United States, residing at Vest Dayton street, adison, in the county of Dane and State of Wisconsin, have invented a new and useful Hose-Reel; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appcrtains to make and use the same.
This invention relates to a new and useful hose reel.
An object of the invention is to provide a device of this nature, designed more especially to be suspended from the ceiling ofa garage or the like, for not only rendering the hose handy for use for washing off the automobiles, but also enabling the person in charge to wash the floor of the garage.
The invention aims as another object to provide means upon the reel, whereby upon unwinding the hose spring means is put under tension, so that when the user has finished the same, it will automatically rewind upon the reel.
As a further object, it is the aim to provide a novel fluid tight universal joint between the water supply tube and a pipe extension of the hollow axle of a wheel, so that the reel may easily revolve.
One of the features of the invention is the provision of means for permitting the reel to be held in adjusted positions as the hose is unwound or unrceled.
In practical fields the details of construction may be subjected to alterations, falling within the scope of what is claimed.
The invention comprises further features and combination of parts, as hereinafter set forth, shown in the drawings and claimed.
In the drawings :--Figure 1 is a view in side elevation of the improved hose reel as suspended from the ceiling of a garage. Fig. 2 is a similar view showing the hose removed, more clearly defining the skeleton reel. Fig. 3 is a view in side elevation showing parts of the reel in longitudinal section. Fig' 1 is an end elevation of the hose reel. Fig. 5 is an enlarged detail sectional view through the universal fluid tight joint, between the water main and the tubular extension of the hollow shaft of the reel.
Referring more especially to the drawings, 1 and 2 designate the hangers 0r Specification of Letters Patent.
Application filed May 1, 1914. Serial No. 835,762.
Patented Nov. 17, 1914.
brackets (which may be in the form of castings or the like) designed to be fastened to any suitable stationary support, for in: stance, as in the present case to the ceiling 3 of a garage. Mounted in bearings 4 of the hangers or brackets is a tubular shaft 5, one end of which isprovided with a flange 6 to engage the bracket 2 to prevent cndwise movement of the shaft. Extending into one end of the hollow shaft is a pipe or tubular member 7 having an elbow 8, which extends through the wall of the tubular shaft and is provided with an extension 9, to which the hose 10 is connected. The hose reel comprises the end members 11 and 12, which are provided with radial arms 13. The end members or disks 11 and 12 are connected by the rods 14, on which the hose winds or reels. The end members 11 and 12 are provided with flanges 15, through which the bolts or screws 16 extend and into the outer shaft, therebv fastening the end members to rotate with the shaft. It will be observed that the pipe or tubular member 7 also rotates with the shaft 5. Owing to the members 11 and 12 being interposed between the brackets or hangers 1 and 2, and the flanges 15 being secured to the shaft longitudinal movement of the shaft is prevented.
Arranged on the interior of the tubular shaft is a coil spring 18, one end of which is secured at or attached to the elbow 8 as shown at 19, the other end of the spring is anchored at 20 in the bearing or hanger or bracket 1. This spring is so arranged and the hose so wound upon the reel, that when the hose is unreclcd by pulling upon the end 22, the hose will unreel against the tension of the spring 18, the pawl 23 acting to engage one or another of the teeth 2t of the ratchet 25. so as to hold the hose partially or entirely unreeled. The pawl is pivoted at 26, and connected to the same is a cord 27 having a handle 28. Upon exerting a pulling action upon the cord 27. a pawl is raised against the act1on.of the spring 29, thereby releasing the ratchet, in which case owing to the action, of the spring 18, the hose will be again reeled or wound upon the reel. The ratchet is fastened to the end member or disk 11 by virtue of the screws 30.
The pipe or tubular member 7 has a flanged end 31, to which a gasket 32 is fastened, by means of the plate 33 and screws of the other coupling member 42.
This flanged end of the pipe or tube 7 with its gasket 82 are swiveled between the enlarged or flanged ends and 36, which are threaded together as at 37, there being a gasket 38 interposed. The flanged end of the pipe or tube 7 seats in the recess 89 of the enlarged or flanged end of the coupling member 40, while the gasket 32 seats in the recess 41 of the enlarged or flanged end 36 It will be observed that as the reel rotates in one direction or the other, the pipe or tube 7 moves therewith and swivels between the connected ends of thecoupling members and 42. The water supply pipe or tube 43 is threaded or otherwise connected at 44 to the coupling member 42 so as to enable the water to pass through the hose. The coupling member 40 is provided with an oil cup 45, which lubricates where the flanged end 31 revolves.
The invention having been set forth, what is claimed as new and useful is:-
1. Ahose reel comprising a pair of hangers, a hollow shaft mounted in bearings of the hangers, a reel connected to the shaft to rotate therewith, a tubular pipe or member extending into the shaft and provided with pipe fittings connected to the shaft whereby the tubular pipe may rotate therewith, said tubular pipe having a swiveled connection with a water supply pipe, a hose on the reel having one end connected to the pipe fittings, a coil spring on the interior of the shaft having one end connected to the ipe fittings and the other end to one of the angers, and means for holding the reel in adjusted position when the hose is partially or entirely unwound, said spring acting to rewind the hose when 'said means are released.
2, A hose reel comprising a pair of hangers, a hollow shaft mounted in bearings of said hangers, a reel rotatable with the shaft and provided with a hose, connections with one end of the hose and passing through one end of the hollow shaft and provided with swiveled connections to a water supply pipe, spring means inside of the tubular shaft against the action of which the hose is unreeled, a spring pawl and ratchet mechanism for holding the reel in adjusted positions when the hose is unreeled.
3. A hose reel comprising a pair of hangers, a hollow shaft having a flange at one end swiveled in a bearing of one of the hangers and having its other end mounted in a bearing of the opposite hanger, a reel comprising end disks provided with flanges bolted to the hollow shaft, rods connecting said dish, a hose wound upon the reel, connections between one end of a hose and a water supply pipe passing through one end of the hollow shaft, said connections comprising pipe fittings, one of which passes through the wall of the hollow shaft and anchors the connections to rotate with the shaft, a spring coiled in the hollow shaft having one end connected to one of the fittings, and the other end connected to one of the hangers against the action of which the hose is unreeled, and a spring tensioned pawl and ratchet mechanism interposed between one of the disks and one of the hangers, to hold the reel in adjusted position against the action of the spring when the hose is unreeled.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
