The driven pulley 901 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the shaft of the take-up reel 3. The drive motor 902 and the main controller 904 are both fixedly installed between two fixed frames 2. The driving pulley 903 is fixedly installed at one end of the shaft of the drive motor 902. The counter roller 905 is movably installed at the edge between the two fixed frames 2. One end of the support rod 906 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of one of the risers 1, and one end of the slide bar 907 is slidably connected to... The support spring 908 is sleeved inside the support rod 906. The pressure roller 909 is rotatably connected to one end of the slide rod 907. The driving pulley 903 and the driven pulley 901 are connected by a belt for belt drive. One end of the support spring 908 abuts against one end of the support rod 906, and the other end of the support spring 908 abuts against one end of the slide rod 907. The pressure roller 909 is located on the outer surface of the counter roller 905. The two ends of the shaft of the pressure roller 909 are slidably set between the two fixed frames 2. The main controller 904 is electrically connected to the drive motor 902 by wires, and the main controller 904 is electrically connected to the counter roller 905 by wires.

[0032] The main controller 904 is a PLC controller used to control the drive motor 902 and receive signals from the counter roller 905. The main controller 904 adopts one of the following: S7-200, S7-300, S7-400, S7-1200, and S7-1500. A display screen for displaying the count of the counter roller 905 is installed on the fixed frame 2 and is electrically connected to the main controller 904.

[0033] This embodiment integrates an electric winding function. The drive motor 902 drives the winding reel 3 to rotate via belt drive, and the two winches 4 can wind the fire hose. At the same time, the drive motor 902 rotates in the opposite direction to unwind the fire hose. Under the limiting action of the limiting plate 5, the hose can be wound quickly and neatly, improving the efficiency and convenience of fire fighting operations. The counter roller 905 is also installed. When unwinding, the pressure roller 909 presses down on the fire hose and drives the counter roller 905 to rotate, which can measure the unwinding length of the fire hose, facilitating subsequent maintenance and management.

[0034] In one embodiment, several risers 1 are fixedly connected to one end of an insertion tube 10. The outer diameter of the insertion tube 10 matches the inner diameter of the riser 1. An elastic locking block 11 is movably installed inside the insertion tube 10. A slot 12 is opened at one end of the riser 1. The shape of the elastic locking block 11 matches the shape of the slot 12.

[0035] The movable elastic block 11 consists of a spring and a protrusion. The protrusion can be retracted into the insertion tube 10 by pressing. The spring is installed inside the insertion tube 10, with one end abutting against the protrusion, so that the protrusion can be reset after being pressed and released.

[0036] In this embodiment, an insertion tube 10 is provided, which can be inserted into the riser 1 and connected by the movable elastic locking block 11 and the locking groove 12, so as to facilitate the stacking and fixing of two fire hose reels.

[0037] Instructions: During use, the main controller 904 controls the drive motor 902, which drives the winding reel 3 to rotate via belt drive. Two winches 4 are used to wind the fire hose. Simultaneously, the drive motor 902 rotates in the opposite direction to unwind the fire hose. Under the limiting action of the limit plate 5, the hose is wound quickly and neatly, improving the efficiency and convenience of firefighting operations. Furthermore, the counter roller 905, when unwinding, uses the pressure roller 909 to press down on the fire hose, causing the counter roller 905 to rotate and measure the unwinding length of the fire hose, facilitating subsequent maintenance and management.
