Patent attributes
A hose reel device is disclosed for supporting and transporting a hose. The hose reel device comprises a frame. A support beam extends within the frame. A spool includes a hub interposed between a first flange plate and a second flange plate for winding the hose on the spool. The hub of the spool rotatably engages the support beam for rotating the spool relative to the frame. The hub of the spool and the frame define a perpendicular angle. A wheel rotatably engages the frame for transporting the hose reel device over a surface in an oblique position and pivoting the spool between a horizontal position and a vertical position relative to the surface. The horizontal position defines a first optimal position for winding the hose about the spool. The vertical position defines a second optimal position for propelling a fluid between a holding tank and a storage tank.
