HOSE-REEL.
SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 561,229, dated J' une 2, 1896.
Application led February 28, 1895. Serial No. 540,071. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern.-
Be it known that we, MICHAEL H. KERN and HENRY TIDEMAN, citizens of the United States, residing at Menominee, in the county of Menominee and State of Michigan, have invented a new and useful Hose-Reehof which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to hose-reels; and it has for its object to provide a new and'useful construction of automatic hose-reel that will be automatic in its operation to provide for operating the valve that controls the supply and the drainage of the Water.
To this end the main and primary obj ect of the present invention is to provide a new and useful automatic hose-reel having simple and efficient means for starting and cutting off the flow of water, for automatically draining the line of piping from water after the supply thereof has been cut off, and also to provide for reeling the hose in such a manner that the same will automatically drain itself of standing water therein, and the convolutions of the hose will be exposed to a free circulation of air, so that the same will quickly and thoroughly dry after being used.
With these and other objects in view, which will readily appear as the nature of the invention is better understood, the same consists in the novel construction, combination, and arrangement of parts hereinafter more fully described, illustrated, and claimed.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a side elevation of an automatic hose-reel constructed in accordance with this invention. Fig. 2 is a central vertical sectional view thereof. Fig. 3 is a vertical sectional view on the line fr of Fig. 2. Fig. 4 is a detail sectional view of the combined water-supply and drain valve, showing a different position of the valve-plug from' that shown in Fig. 2.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, 1 designates a U-shaped supporting-base havi ing the parallel upright arms 2 and 3, respectively, and the upright arm 2 of the base 1 is provided with a series of supporting-legs 4, which, together with the upright arm 2, provide a bearing-support for the upright revolving reel-cylinder 5.
The upright revolving reel-cylinder 5 consists of the upper and lower circular heads 6,
having on their inner faces circular flanges 7, and a series of parallel upright bars or slats v8, connecting the upper and lower heads 6. The upright bars or slats 8 are arranged at distances apart to admit of a free circulation of air throughout the interior of the reel-cylinder and around the convolutions of the hose that is exteriorlyreeled on the said cylinder, and the ends of the bars or slats 8 are suitably secured, as at 9, by means of screws or other fastening means on the outside of the anges 7 of the said cylinder-heads, said bars or slats, together with the heads, completing a construction of reel-cylinder of the same diameter throughout, while at the same time being open to provide for the circulation of air contemplated for by this invention.
The lower circular head 6 of the upright reel -cylinder 5 is provided with a central bearing-opening 10, that receives the bearingstud 11, projected integrally from the upper end of the upright arm 2 of the base 1, and this connection of the reel-cylinder with the supporting-base provides for the pivotal or bearing support of the lower end of the reelcylinder. The said reel-cylinder 5 is further provided with an exterior spiral supportingflange 12, that is secured exteriorly on the slatted periphery of the upright cylinder to provide for supporting and separating each separate convolution of the hose 13, that is adapted to be reeled and unreeled on the cylinder. By reason of separating and supporting each convolution of the hose by means of the continuous spiral supporting-ange 12 it will be obvious that when the hose is reeled on the cylinder each convolution will be eX- posed to a free circulation of air both inside and outside of the cylinder to insure a quick drying of the hose, and the inclination of the convolutions of the spiral iiange 12, since the diameter of the cylinder is the same throughout, provides for a perfect drainage of the water that is left in the hoseafter using.
i The hose 13 carries at one end the usual nozzle 14, and at its other upper end the said hose is fitted to the outer end of a hose-connecting pipe 15. The'said hose-connecting pipe 15 is arranged within the upper part of the reel-cylinder 5 and has the outer end thereof project between a pair of the bars or IOO slats S to provide fora connection of the hose therewith, and at its inner end the said hoseconnecting pipe is provided with an upright bearing extension 1G, that projects centrally through and above the upper head G of the cylinder and turns freely in the stuffingbox or gland 17, arranged at the upper end of an upright arched piping-frame 1S.
The upright arched piping-frame not only provides for the bearing-support of the upper end of the reel-cylinder, but also provides for supplying the hose with water, and said piping-frame essentially consists of an upper horizontal pipe 19 and the opposite parallel pipes 2O and 2l, respectively eenneeted to the opposite ends of the horizontal pipe 19 by elbows 22. The upright pipe 2O carries the stuffing-box or gland 17 and is shorter than the upright pipe 21, which pipe 21 is suitably connected, as at 22, to the upper end of the upright arm 3 of the U -shaped supporting-base 1, which base therefore also provides means for properly supporting the arched piping-fraine in position.
The upright pipe 21 of the piping-frame 1S is provided near its lower end with the separaie inlet and drain openings 23 and 2l, rcspectively, and with each of said openings is connected one end of short nipple connections 25 and 25, the other ends of which are con nected to one side of a cylindrical valve-casing 215. The nipple connection 25 for the inletopening 23 is connected to the valve-easing 2G at a point belowthe nipple cennectioii for the drain-opeiiing 2l, and the said valveeasing is provided at one side directly opposite4 the nipple connection 25 with an inletopening 27, with which is adapted to be connected a suitable supply pipe or hose 28 for supplying water to the hose of the reel, and at one side directly opposite the nipple conneetion 25 the said valve-casiiig is provided with a draiirspout 29 to discharge standing water from the arched piping-frame when the supply of waterhas been cut oif therefrom.
The cylindrical valve-easing 2G accommodatesfor movement therein a normally springelevated cylindrical valve-plug 27 mounted on the valve-stein 2S", that works through openings 29 in the top and bottoni of the casing 26, and the upper end of the valve-stein above the casing is provided with a handle 30 to provide for depressing the valve, and the lower end of the valve-stein below the casing is provided with a collar 31, the function of which will be presently referred to. A valve lifting spring 32 is coiled on the valve-stein 2S below the valve-plug 27 1, and .normally elevates the said valve-plug above the plane of the nipple connection 25 and the water-inlet opening 27 te allow for a free flow of water into the piping-frame 1S and therefore into the hose 113. In its normally-elevated position the valve-plug 27 covers the openings communicating with the nipple connection 25 and the drain-spout 29 to prevent any leakage of water at this point when the hose is supplied with ruiming water. lly depress ing the valve-stein by means of the handle 30 the position of the valve-plug 27 L will be reversed-that is, to uncover the drain-openings of the valve-casing and to cover the inlet-opening thereof to provide for cutting off the supply of water, as shown in Fig. i of the drawings, and at the saine time allowing for the standing water in the piping-frame to freely drain.
In its depressed position the lower end of the valve-stein 28n above the collar 31 is adapted to be engaged by the lateh-hook 33, formed integrally at one end of a valve-operating lever 3i. The latcli-hook embraces the stein 2S between the collar 31 and the lower end of the valve-casin g 20, and therefore holds the valve-plug in the position illustrated in Fig. 4 of the drawings. The said latch-lever Si is pivotally supported at an intermediate point, as at 35, on the upright arm 3 of the base 1, and turns on the collar 3G, formed on said upright arm. The end of the lever 3l opposite the lateh-hook 33 thereof is arranged to extend under the lower end of the reel-eyh iiider 5 in the path of a trip-lug 37, projected from the lower cylinder-head G, so that as the reel-cylinder is rotated iii the act of unwind ing the hose by pulling out the nozzle end of the hose the said lug will be carried against the lever 3l at one side of the saine and will disengage the hook 33 from the valve-stein 28, so that the spring 32 will be 'free to lift the valve-plug 27 to turn on the water.
The reel-cylinder 5 is rotated in a direction to wind up the hose thereon by means of a short operating-shaft 38, that is journaled at one end in a bearing 39, fitted on the pipingframe 1S, and at its other end in the lower end of a beari1ig-arin 40, depending from the upper horizontal pipe of said piping-frame. The shaft 38 carries at its outerend a crankhandle 41 and at its inner end a pinion 4t2, that engages a circular rack or gear-ring etl, formed on the upper head (l of the reel-cylinder. lVhile the hose is being reeled on the reelcylinder by the means described, the separate convolutions thereof are guided in place between the convolutions of the flange 12 by means of an upright guide-roller il. The upright guide-roller 4i is arranged at one side of the reel-cylinder 5 and is provided at its lower end with a bearing-stud Ll5, detacliably fitting in the bearing-opening 4:6, formed in the basel., and at its upper end the roller il is provided with a pin-socket i7, that detachably receives the bearing-pin 48, also dctaehably fitting in the inner end of a horizontal bracket-arm L19, suitably attached to and projected from one side of the upright pipe 21 of the piping-fraine 18.
The operation and many advantages of the herein-described automatic hose-reel will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art without further description, and it will be understood that changes in the forin, propertion, and the miner details of construction IOO IIO
may be resorted to without departing from the principle or sacrificing any of the advantages of this invention.
Having thus described the inventiomwhat is claimed, and desired to be secured by Letters Patent, is-
