ABSTRACT:
A retractable garden hose reel that obviates the need for a hand crank to reel in the garden hose includes a pair of wheels pivotally mounted to a frame that includes a handle and a base with a reel shaft and a slide track extending between and interconnected to side frame members of the frame. An extendible and retractable garden hose is mounted on the reel shaft and enclosed within a housing unit adjacent one side frame member is a recoil spring concentric with the reel shaft and having one end attached to the reel shaft and an opposite end secured within the housing unit so that extension of the garden hose winds the recoil spring and retraction of the garden hose occurs when a lock and release mechanism disengages from a sprocket interconnected to the reel shaft and the recoil spring thereby allowing the recoil spring to simultaneously unwind and retract the garden hose.
