Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A device for holding a lawn hose comprising a first vertical generally flat and coplanar cross; and a second vertical cross having an inner central'section secured to the center of the first cross and an outer coplanar section lying in a plane parallel to and spaced from the first cross, the hose being wound about the central section and disposed between the outer coplanar section and the first cross.
  • My invention is directed toward a reel for lawn hose, particularly common flat soaker hose.
  • the hose when reeled up, never gets twisted or warped because of improper storage during unused periods.
  • the reeled hose has a neat and orderly appearance while hanging from a suitable garage or storage room wall the like.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective of my invention in use;
  • FIG. 2 is a side elevation thereof;
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 are detail cross sections thereof.
  • rods or bars and 12 are secured together at a common midpoint 14 to define a first vertical generally flat coplanar cross.
  • One end 16 of rod 10 is flat and has a hole 18 therein.
  • the two ends of rod 12 have tips 20 extending parallel to each other and at right angles to rod 12.
  • Rods or bars 22 and 24 are secured together at a midpoint 26 to define a second cross. Central portions 22 and 24' of these members are secured to midpoint 14 by pin 28 whereby the crosses are each freely rotatable about the pin.
  • hose 32 opposite faucet end 34 is secured to the device by string 36.
  • Member 10 is held in one hand, the handle 30 is held in the other, and the device is wound until the fitting stops at a tip. The reel can then be hung from a wall by hole 18.
  • a device for holding a lawn hose comprising; a first generally flat and coplanar cross, a second cross with outer coplanar sections lying in a plane parallel to and spaced from said first cross, said outer coplanar sections having offset portions extending between said sections and said first cross, and terminating in an inner central section which is rotatably secured to said first cross permitting relative rotation there between, said crosses have a common axis extending through the cenangles thereto.
