View Patent ↗In accordance with example embodiments a hose reel system including a layout guide is provided.
1. A mobile hose reel system comprising:
a frame;
an axle;
pair of wheels attached to the axle;
a spool rotationally attached to the frame;
a driving member configured to rotate the spool;
a tongue attached to the frame; and
a hose guide arranged in front of the spool, the hose guide being configured to control a loading of hose on the spool, wherein the driving member includes a multispeed motor and a slewing ring and the multispeed motor includes a pinion coupled to the slewing ring.
2. The hose reel system of claim 1 , wherein the motor is a hydraulic motor.
3. The mobile hose reel system of claim 1 , wherein the pinion is directly coupled to the slewing ring.
4. A mobile hose reel system comprising:
a frame;
an axle;
a pair of wheels attached to the axle;
a spool rotationally attached to the frame;
a driving member attached to the frame, the driving member being configured to rotate the spool;
a tongue attached to the frame;
a first actuator configured to pivot the tongue with respect to the frame;
a hose guide arranged at a front side of the spool and configured control a loading of hose on the spool; and
a layout guide pivotally connected to the frame.
5. The mobile hose reel system of claim 4 , wherein the hose guide is configured to move in a side-by-side manner.
6.
