ABSTRACT:
A tray is mounted along a telescoping structure, typically suspended beneath a segment of the telescoping structure. The tray provides a space for a flexible conduit to be gathered into and payed out from as the structure changes in length. A conduit connector couples segments of the conduit and defines a fluid path which makes two substantially right angle turns to increase the minimum radius which the flexible conduit must assume during the expansion and contraction of the structure. The flexible conduit can be attached to rigid conduits extending between the tray and either end of the structure. A Z-shaped conduit connector can be pivotally mounted to the tray, or can be articulated, to increase the usable length of flexible hose stored within the tray.
