Claim:
1. An industrial machine comprising: a frame supporting a boom, the boom including a first end coupled to the frame, a second end opposite the first end, and a shipper shaft extending transversely through the boom, the shipper shaft positioned between the first end and the second end; a fluid source positioned on the frame; an elongated member movably coupled to the boom and driven by rotation of the shipper shaft, the elongated member including a first end and a second end; an attachment coupled to the second end of the elongated member; a conduit providing fluid communication between the fluid source on the frame and the attachment, the conduit including a first portion, a second portion, and a coupling providing fluid communication between the first portion and the second portion, the second portion including a first end in fluid communication with the fluid source and a second end in fluid communication with the coupling, the first portion including a first end in fluid communication with the coupling and a second end in fluid communication with the attachment such that fluid flows sequentially from the fluid source through the second portion, the coupling, and the first portion; a first reel supporting the first portion of the conduit, the first reel being rotatably supported on a support shaft, the first reel rotating about an axis of rotation to reel in and pay out the first portion of the conduit in response to movement of the elongated member relative to the boom; a second reel rotatable with the first reel about the axis of rotation, the second reel supporting the second portion of the conduit, rotation of the second reel about the axis of rotation selectively reels in and pays out the second portion of the conduit in response to rotation of the shipper shaft; and a gear transmission for transmitting torque from the shipper shaft to the support shaft, the gear transmission including a pinion and at least one gear member, the pinion coupled to the shipper shaft, the pinion driving the at least one gear member to rotate the support shaft at a predetermined speed relative to the shipper shaft.
