ABSTRACT:
A hose roller device used to roll up collapsed hose, such as fire hose. The hose roller device includes a two pronged fork on which the collapsed hose is placed and rolled up into a uniform roll that can be easily removed from the two prongs for storage or transportation in the rolled condition. The two pronged fork is attached to one end of an axle that is rotatably held in a transverse bearing hole through an upright member. A crank handle is connected to the other end of the axle to roll up the hose. The member is held upright by a support system that fixes the vertical position. The support system allows the member to rotate about this longitudinal vertical centerline. The member extends above the two pronged fork and includes a fitting to which a tiller is connected. The tiller may be placed into either of two positions to accommodate a right or left handed person. The tiller is used steer hose roller device. The hose roller is designed to be mounted permanently in the ground or in concrete or removably mounted on a vehicle such as a fire apparatus.
