ABSTRACT:
This disclosure pertains to an appliance cord reel comprising an inner spring biased cord supporting rod about which a hollow cylinder having a slit spirally wound extending substantially the length thereof and an outermost hollow cylinder adapted with a slit extending parallel to the longitudinal axis thereof. A flexible electrical cable, adapted with a male plug that is secured to the outermost cylinder on a side opposite the longitudinal slot therein, passes onto the central rod and is wound about the rod. The other end of the cable passes through the spiral slot in the innermost cylinder and the longitudinal slot in the outermost cylinder, terminating in a receptacle extensible from the outermost surface of the outermost cylinder, when withdrawn from within, causing the innermost rod to rotate as the cord is unwound therefrom and causing the intermediate cylinder to rotate as the cord moves along the height thereof as it passes through the spirally wound slot.
