Abstract: A device for taking up a fire-fighting hose, allowing the user to quickly and reliably take up the hose with a small force in an upright posture and capable of accurately taking up the hose both in a single layer and in double layers. Wheels (2) are rotatably supported at the lower part of a frame body (1), and a handle (5) is provided to the upper part of the frame body (1). The frame body (1) can be moved by rotating the wheels (2) by pushing or pulling the handle (5). A rotatable reel (3) on which hose (H) is wound is provided to the frame body (1), a power transmitting circulation member (4) is passed over the rotating shaft (33) of the reel (3) and the rotation support shaft (21) of the wheels (2) to enable the reel (3) to rotate in association with the rotation of the wheels (2).

Abstract: A portable or travelling transporting device for winding material usable as a hose truck has a frame (3), to which are fitted a travelling mechanism (4) with ground wheels (6) for moving on a ground surface, as well as a hose winding drum. The ground wheels (6) rotating on moving the hose truck can be brought into driving connection with the winding drum by means of a force transfer means (25) constructed as a flat gear. A slip clutch (46) located in the force transfer path ensures that during the advance of the hose truck a laid out hose can be wound onto the winding drum with a limited winding force appropriate for troublefree, compact winding on.
