The invention relates to improvements in reels for garden-hose.
The object of the present invention is to improvethe construction of reels for gardenhose and to provide a simple and comparatively inexpensive one adapted to permit garden-hose to be easily and quickly handled 1 extended upwardly to form a handle.
rear ends of the sides are connected by an and capable of efiectually preventing the same from kinking and of enabling a hose to drain rapidly after being wound on the reel.
With these and other. objects in view the inventionconsists in the construction and novel combination of parts hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing, and pointed out in the claims hereto appended, it being understood that various changes in the form, proportion, size, andminor details of construction within the scope of the claims may be resorted to without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention. In the drawing, Figure l is a perspective view of a garden-hose reel constructed in accordance with this invention. Fig. 2 is a rear elevation of the same partially in section. Fig. 3 is a detail perspective view of the vertically-movable guide. Fig. 4 is a detail sectional view of the same, illustrating the manner of iounting the grooved roller.
Like nunlierals of reference designate corresponding parts in all the figures of the drawing. I
designates the frame of the reel, which is designed for holding garden-hose and which may be constructed of any size to accommodate a hose of the desired length. The frame, which maybe constructed of any suitable material, is preferably made of tubular metal, and it is composed of opposite sides 2 and a connecting front portion 3, which is substantially inverted-U-shaped and which is The axle, which is provided at its ends with wheels'5, and the front portions of the sides are provided with depending feet 6, which are substantially V-shaped and which sup port the frame in a horizontalposition. The
frame is provided at opposite sides with vertical standards '7, formin fixed guides and composed of spaced paral el sections having an intervening openmg 8 for thereception of the terminal portions 9 and 10 of a vertically-movable hose-guide 1 1. The upwardlyextending standards are connected at the top and bottom by cross-pieces 12 and 13, constructed of malleable cast -metal or other suitable material and having reduced ends 14, which are secured in the openings of the standards by bolts or other suitable means.
The cross-pieces are provided with central alined bearing-openings 15 and 16, which receive a vertical shaft 17 of a drum 18, constructed of sheet metal or other suitable material and provided with a spiral hosereceiving groove 19.
ing of a central hub portion which is secured to the vertical shaft, radial spokes, andan outer rim portion which is secured to the drum. The vertical shaft is provided at itsupper end, with a crank-handle 21 and is adapted to berotated for winding a hose 22 on the drum. In unreeling it is only neceswhich is approximately semicircular, is pro vided with a rounded inner face 23 to conform to the configuration of the spiral hose-' receiving groove, which is in the form of a left hand thread. The guide extends across the space between the vertical standards, and one end is extended laterally-and is curved The drum is provided .at its top and bottom with heads 20, consistslightly to fit in the guide-opening of the con tiguous standard. 'The other end of the guide, which is inclined to fit the spiral groove of the drum, is provided with a casing 24, composed of inner and outer parallel sides and a connecting bottom portion and having the outer side extended and curved inwardly to form the terminal portion 10,- which-is hook-shaped, and which extends into the guide-opening of the adjacent side standard.
The casing 24 receives a grooved roller 25,
on which the hose runs in reeling it on and unreelin mountef on a spindle 26,which is formed .integral with a loop or arched portion 27 The loop or arched portion 27' is inclined upwardly and rearwardly and has its sides arranged at the side portions of the casing 24, andit is adapted to confine thehose on the grooved roller or Wheel. i
it from .the drum. The roller is iio When the spirally-grooved drum is rotated, its hose-receiving groove engages the transversely-disposed portion of the guide and moves the latter upward or downward, ac-' cording to the direction in which the drum is rotated. The drum is designed to be pro vided at the up er end of the spiral groove with a clip or other suitable means for securing one end of the hose to the drum, and when the latter is rotated to the right the hose will I be wound on the drum and will be automatically guided to the groove by the guide 11, which will move downwardly, being actuated by the spiral groove.
a the water is permitted to run freely.
The reel, which is exceedingly simple and inexpensive in construction, is light, strong, and durable and is adapted to enable a hose to, be quickly wound on it and unwound from it. 'It is adapted to prevent the short kinks,- whiph are injurious to hose, and it is capable of perrnittingthe hose when wound. on it to drain quickly, as the spiral disposition of the hose forms a continuous incline down which Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. A hose-reel comprising a drum having a s iral groove, and a hose-guide movable a ong the drum and actuated by the groove, which also receives the hose. v v 2. A hose-reel comprisinga drum having a spiral hose-receiving groove, and means ared to follow the groove for automatically rang gui .ing the hose to the same, said means be" ing actuated by the groove, which receives the hose.
3. A hose-reel comprising a drum having a' spiral hose-receiving groove, and a hoseguide provided with means for en aging the groove, whereby it is adapted to. ollow the same and automatically guide the :hose thereto. f
41A hose reel comprising adrum having a spiral groove, a fixed guide disposed longitudinally of the drum, and a -hose guide movable along the fixed guide and provided with means for engaging the spiral groove, whereby it is adapted to automatically feed a hose to the same. i
5. .A hose-reel comprising a frame, a vertically-disposed drum mounted on the frame and having a spiral hose-receiving groove, and a vertically; movable hose guide actuated by the groove of the drum and adaptedtoauto'matically guide a hose to the said groove.
. 6. .A reel comprising a frame provided at opposite sides with vertical standards having guides, a reel mounted between the standards and having a spiral groove, and a hose-guide slidable on the. standards and extending across the space between the same and engaging the spiral groove of the reel;
7. A hose-reel comprising a frame provided at opposite sides with guides, areel mounted between the guides, and a hose-guide slidable on the said guides and provided with a curved portion extending acrossthe frame and arranged at'an inclina ion, said curved portion being eng'a ed by the groove of the drum, whereby'the' os eguide is actuated by the same. a
-8. A reel comprising a'frameprovided'at opposite sides with fixed guides, a drum mountedbetween the guides and provided awithaspiral groove, a hose-guide slidable on and provided with'an arched extension for confining a hose on the roller.
10. A'hose-reel comprising a frame provided at oppositesides with vertical standards, cross-pieces connecting the upper and lower portions of the standards, a vertical shaft journaled in the cross-pieces, a drum mounted on the shaft and having a spiral groove, and means actuated by the groove of the drum for feeding a hose to the same.
11. A hose-reel comprising a frame composed of opposite sides and a connecting up wardly-extending front portion forming a handle, said sides being also provided with spaced upwardly-extending portions forming fixed guides, cross-pieces having their t6I'1nlnals secured in the space between the said upwardly-extending portions, and a drum mounted between the cross-pieces and adapt- ,ed to receive a hose.
