Hand operated rolling machine for flattened fire-hoses, rapidly rolls up doubled hoses

摘要

The fire hose to be rolled up is first laid flat and then doubled up so that both connections are at the same end. The other end of the doubled hose is then hitched onto an eccentric pin (8). The handle (10) of the machine is then cranked round to roll up the hose. Guide rollers 912) ensure that the hose is rolled evenly. A rubber strip (16) on the base plate (1) protects the hose from damage while rolling.
