ABSTRACT:
A gathering and storing device for electric extension cords and comprising a frame providing a handle member at the upper end to be grasped by the user and a foot bar to be located on the ground and stood on by the user to stabilize the cord gathering device during use. A rotatable reel has a handle which is rotated to gather the cord. A slack adjuster is located adjacent the handle and includes a pressure plate to which the user's fingers are applied to provide a slight pressure to insure that the cord is gathered onto the reel in a neat and orderly fashion. The pressure plate has finger members which guide the cord and prevent it from slipping off the pressure plate. A locking ring is attached about the frame and can be placed about a portion of the reel to insure the reel does not move during storage. One side of the reel has lead clips and a plug holder clip to allow a short portion of the cord near the plug to be gathered on the outside of the reel in order that it can be easily disengaged to be plugged in a outlet.
