A relatively inexpensive but highly reliable electrically powered hose winding mechanism, particularly well adapted for rewinding auxiliary fire hose and the like. In the disclosed perferred embodiment, a smooth horizontally disposed rolling table has a free rolling hose guide means located near its outer edge, and a flush mounted wind plate means centrally located in an opening near its center. A pivotally mounted conventional electrical motor applies the power through pulleys and belts and a special pivotally mounted intermediate speed reduction means to allow reduction in r.p.m. from a range utilized in a conventional small electric motor to a range suitable for winding of hose. A variable speed control is preferably provided to assist the operator, and a special garden hose adapter is disclosed. |
