Device for washing and coiling hoses

Claim 2

A combination hose washing and winding machine including, in combination, a washer and guide chamber having a central passageway axis and comprising inner and outer, medially spaced tubular members connected together at their opposite ends, said inner member including a multiplicity of water-spray perforations; inclined support structure for supportingly mounting said chamber at a lower region thereof; a spindle rotatably supported by said support structure at an upper region thereof and aligned as to plane of revolvement with said chamber as to the latter''s axis; a right-angle gear box mounted to said support strucTure and having input means and also an output drive connected to said spindle for revolving the latter; a fluid motor spaced from said gear box and mounted to said support structure, said fluid motor having an inlet for receiving pressured fluid and also an outlet coupled with said chamber to provide spray fluid therewithin; and elongate shaft means for mechanically coupling said fluid motor with said input means of said rightangle gear box, to drive the latter.

Claim 3

Structure according to claim 1 wherein said inclined support structure includes a handle, a forward depending prop, and rearwardly disposed wheel means dependingly supported from said support structure.

Claim 4

Structure according to claim 1 wherein said washer and guide chamber includes upper and lower, fixed, horizontal brush means for encompassingly engaging an external hose to be routed through said washer and guide chamber for washing and roll-up purposes.

Claim 5

A combination hose washing and winding machine including, in combination, a washer and guide chamber including a central passageway having a central through-aperture, said central passageway being constructed for the reception of an external hose to be routed through said washer and guide chamber at said central passageway, said washer and guide chamber comprising inner and outer, medially spaced, tubular members connected together at their opposite ends whereby to form an annular water reception chamber disposed between said tubular members, said inner member including a multiplicty of water-spray, transverse perforations; angulated support structure for supportingly mounting said chamber at a lower region thereof; a spindle rotatably supported by said support structure at an upper region thereof and aligned as to plane of revolvement with said chamber as to the latter''s axis; a right-angle gear box mounted to said support structure and having an input means and an output drive connected to said spindle for revolving the latter; a fluid motor spaced from said gear box and mounted to said support structure proximate said chamber, said fluid motor having an inlet for receiving pressured fluid and an outlet connected to said chamber to provide fluid communication therewithin; and elongated shaft means for mechanically coupling said fluid motor with said input means of said right-angle gear box, to drive the latter.

Claim 6

A combination hose washing and winding machine including, in combination, a washer and guide chamber including a central passageway having a central through-aperture, said central passageway being constructed for the reception of an external hose to be routed through said washer and guide chamber at said central passageway, said washer and guide chamber comprising inner and outer, medially spaced, tubular members connected together at their opposite ends whereby to form an annular water reception chamber disposed between said tubular members, said inner member including a multiplicty of water-spray, transverse perforations; angulated support structure for supportingly mounting said chamber at a lower region thereof; a spindle rotatably supported by said support structure at an upper region thereof and aligned as to plane of revolvement with said chamber as to the latter''s axis; a right-angle gear box mounted to said support structure and having an input means and an output drive connected to said spindle for revolving the latter; a fluid motor spaced from said gear box and mounted to said support structure proximate said chamber, said fluid motor having an inlet for receiving pressured fluid and an outlet connected to said chamber to provide fluid communication therewithin; and elongated shaft means for mechanically coupling said fluid motor with said input means of said right-angle gear box, to drive the latter.
