  • Publication number: 20220112047
    Abstract: A hose reel includes a frame, a spool supported on the frame for rotation relative to the frame, a motor supported on the frame to provide motive power to the spool, a level wind device supported on the frame to guide a hose during winding and unwinding; the level wind device being selectively linked to the rotation of the spool and including a disengagement clutch for selectively decoupling the operation of the level wind device from the rotation of the spool. The hose reel may be selectively operated to provide a power-out assist during unwinding that provides a power level to the motor less than a threshold power necessary to drive the spool in the unwinding direction.

  • Patent number: 8210306
    Abstract: A system for disabling a vehicle carrying a storage tank includes a coupler component supported by the vehicle for receiving a connection from a delivery line. A cap is attachable to an end of the coupler component for preventing connection of the delivery line when the cap is attached. A proximity sensor is disposed outside of the coupler component and senses whether the cap is attached without making contact with the cap. A switch is in electrically connected to the sensor and disables at least one drive element of the vehicle, e.g., the transmission, when the cap is not attached to the coupler component.

  • Patent number: 8132639
    Abstract: A system for disabling a vehicle carrying a substance in a storage tank includes a holster defining a cavity for receiving a nozzle in fluidic connection to the storage tank when not in use. The holster includes a main body and a bracket. The bracket is affixable to the vehicle and engagable with the main body at a plurality of positions along the main body. The system further includes a sensor for sensing whether the nozzle is received in the holster. The sensor is also in communication with at least one drive element of the vehicle to disable the at least one drive element when the nozzle is not received within the holster.
