  • Patent number: 10562736
    Abstract: This invention modifies and redesigns a spring-loaded, retractable supply hose mechanisms used to pan out, retract, and store hoses used for gases (e.g., oxygen), treatments, or fluids, specifically this inventor's prior art, the Retractable Oxygen Supply Hose Mechanism, U.S. Pat. No. 6,065,490. This invention incorporates an “Adaptor Cap” or “Removable Cap” to prevent slippage of the Swivel connector, incorporates a “Removable Cap” into the upper disc or flange of the supply-hose reel and/or into the mechanism housing cover that acts as an “anti-rotational” device, and features bearing surfaces to prevent reel slippage. This internal ratchet system better prevents binding and kinking of the patient's supply, thereby facilitating the storage and the quick-controlled release of the desired amount of oxygen supply hose for patient's Medical Oxygen and other gases delivery, therapy, or treatments.

  • Patent number: 6065490
    Abstract: The modification of a spring loaded retractable mechanism currently used for wire to facilitate the quick dispensing and retraction of an oxygen supply hose for medical oxygen therapy and medical oxygen treatment devises. An adaptor is developed to permit the adaptor to be connected to a supply hose reel top surface. The adaptor permits the patient supply hose to be attached to a swivel connector that is fixed to the adaptor cap. The adaptor facilitates the free movement of the adaptor and the supply hose reel to prevent binding or impingement of the patient supply hose.
