ABSTRACT:
A hose reel apparatus is disclosed which permits proper winding and unwinding of a hose, for example the water hose of a sewer cleaning machine. The apparatus includes a reel, preferably a power driven reel, for winding and unwinding a hose and a series of rollers coupled together by links. The rollers are positioned on the outside circumference of the hose windings in such a manner that a radial force is exerted on the hose causing hose windings to remain tight against the core of the reel. The preferred embodiment also includes means for holding the rollers against the windings whether the hose is fully wound, fully unwound or partially unwound, i.e. regardless of the circumference of the hose windings. This latter feature is accomplished by providing spring means coupled to the rollers and links to urge the rollers into contact with the hose.
