Hose storage device

摘要

The objective of the present invention is to provide a hose storage device that utilizes a supporting frame structure which is constructed and arranged to be nested on top of a similar supporting frame structure. The supporting frame structure is also constructed and arranged such that a similar supporting frame structure can be nested on top of the supporting frame structure. The hose storage device also has a hose reel structure having a surface for receiving a length of coiled hose thereon. The hose reel structure has generally circular end flanges. Also, the hose reel structure is rotatably mounted within the supporting frame structure. The aforementioned structures are constructed and arranged to allow a similar hose storage device to be stacked on top of the hose storage device with the supporting frame structure in a nesting relation with the supporting frame structure of the similar hose storage device. These structures have upwardly facing supporting surfaces constructed and arranged to support a similar hose storage device stacked in a nesting arrangement on top of the hose storage device. These structures also have downwardly facing stacking surfaces constructed and arranged to engage the upwardly facing supporting surfaces of a similar hose storage device when the hose storage device is stacked on top of the similar hose storage device.
