Patent ID: 8505845

Claim:
A system for storing, rotating and feeding a high pressure hose, comprising: a housing including an output port; a rotatable cylindrically-shaped cage disposed within the housing; a rotatable cylindrically-shaped drum disposed within the cage; a rotatable guide arm disposed within the cage; and, an actuator assembly for rotating the cage and the guide arm, wherein: an end of a high pressure hose is connectable to the cage; a first portion of the high pressure hose is disposable about the drum; the guide arm is for engaging a second portion of the high pressure hose; and, the actuator assembly is for rotating the cage and the guide arm, respectively, so that the guide arm rotates relative to the cage such that: the second portion of the high pressure hose is rotated about a longitudinal axis for the hose; relative rotation of the guide arm with respect to the cage in a first rotational direction causes the first portion of the high pressure hose to uncoil from the drum and displace along the guide arm and causes a third portion of the high pressure hose in the output port to displace out of the output port away from the guide arm; and, relative rotation of the guide arm with respect to the cage in a second rotational direction, opposite the first rotational direction, causes the second portion of the high pressure hose to coil about the drum and causes the third portion of the high pressure hose to displace into the housing.
