DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] In order to further understand the features, technical means, specific objectives and functions achieved by the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0035] See Figures 1 to 6: A remote-controlled electric hose reel comprises a shell 1, an outlet 11 opened at the top of one side of the shell 1, and a reel 2 rotatably arranged in the shell 1; the reel 2 is driven to rotate by a drive module 3 fixedly arranged on one side of the shell 1, and the reel 2 is used to reel in the water pipe 8; the pipe laying module 4 is arranged on the other side of the reel 2 relative to the drive module 3 and is horizontally arranged at the outlet 11 and is transmission-connected to the reel 2 for guiding the retraction and extension of the water pipe 8; the water supply module is embedded in the reel 2 to realize water supply to the water pipe 8; the control module 5 is embedded in the top of the shell 1; the wireless control module 6 is detachably arranged at the end of the water pipe 8 for remote control, and the over-reeling prevention module 7 is coaxially installed on the outside of the water pipe 8 and is arranged close to the wireless control module 6, and the over-reeling prevention module 7 is arranged on the side close to the reel 2.

[0036] When the water pipe 8 needs to be reeled in, the staff only needs to hold the end of the water pipe 8 and pull the water pipe 8 outward with force. When it is necessary to realize autonomous export, it is only necessary to send an instruction to the driving module 3 through the operation control module 5, and drive the reeling wheel 2 to rotate toward the side of the guide outlet 11 through the driving module 3. When the water pipe 8 is pulled to the required length and the water pipe 8 needs to be stopped from being exported, it is only necessary to turn off the control instruction to the driving module 3 by operating the wireless control module 6. Correspondingly, when the water pipe 8 needs to be reeled in, it is only necessary to drive the reeling wheel 2 to rotate toward the side away from the export outlet 11 through the operation control module 5 to realize the reeling of the water pipe 8 until the water pipe 8 is completely reeled in. The pipe laying module 4 is used to guide the water pipe 8 horizontally during the process of reeling in or exporting the water pipe 8, so that the water pipe 8 can be wound in an orderly manner outside the reeling wheel 2.

[0037] See Figures 3 and 6: the water supply module includes a water supply connector 21 and a rotary connector 22; the water supply connector 21 consists of an outlet pipe and a docking pipe, the outlet pipe is installed in the reel 2 when embedded in an inclined state, the docking pipe is coaxially fixed in the reel 2 and is arranged close to one side of the reel 2, and the docking pipe and the outlet pipe are connected by a hose; the rotary connector 22 is coaxially fixed on one side of the reel 2 and one end is arranged to pass through the shell 1 toward the outside, and the other end is rotatably connected to the docking pipe.

[0038] In the working state, when it is necessary to supply water to the water pipe 8, it is only necessary to connect the external water source and the docking end of the rotary joint 22. The water source introduced through the rotary joint 22 will enter the water pipe 8 along the docking pipe, the hose and the outlet pipe in sequence, thereby realizing the water supply work of the water pipe 8. Since the water supply joint 21 is connected to the external water source through the rotary joint 22, even if the reel 2 is driven by the drive module 3 to retract and extend the pipeline, it will not affect the normal conduction of the water source.

[0039] 3 and 6 : the driving module 3 includes a reduction motor 31 and a power supply element 32 ; the reduction motor 31 is fixedly arranged in the shell 1 and is transmission-connected to the winding wheel 2 ; the power supply element 32 is installed at the bottom of one side of the shell 1 when embedded, so as to access an external power supply.

[0040] In the working state, when it is necessary to drive the reeling wheel 2 to rotate so as to realize the retraction and release of the water pipe 8, the power supply element 32 is first connected to the external power supply. After the power supply element 32 is connected to the power supply, the reduction motor 31 is powered synchronously. After being connected to the power supply, the reduction motor 31 drives the shaft to rotate to drive the reeling wheel 2, thereby realizing the retraction and release of the water pipe 8.

[0041] 5 and 6 : The pipe laying module 4 includes a double-rest screw 41, a rotating seat 42, a guide unit 43, a driving gear 44, a driven gear 45 and a gear belt 46; the double-rest screw 41 is rotated horizontally through the rotating seats 42 arranged at both ends, and is arranged across the shell 1 and is located directly above the guide outlet 11; the guide unit 43 is installed in an inclined state on the outside of the double-rest screw 41 and is transmission-connected to the double-rest screw 41 to limit and guide the conduction of the water pipe 8; the driving gear 44 is coaxially fixed on one side of the reel 2; the driven gear 45 is coaxially fixed on one end of the double-rest screw 41 close to the driving gear 44 and is transmission-connected to the driving gear 44 through the gear belt 46.

[0042] In the working state, in order to ensure that the water pipe 8 led out from the reel 2 can be reeled in a uniform posture and evenly wound onto the reel 2, when the reel 2 rotates under the drive of the drive module 3, the kinetic energy of the reel 2 will be synchronously transmitted to the double-rest screw 41 under the action of the gear belt 46, thereby driving the double-rest screw 41 to rotate. When the double-rest screw 41 is in the rotating state, it will correspondingly drive the guide unit 43 arranged outside itself to move, so that the guide unit 43 slides back and forth along the axis of the double-rest screw 41, thereby realizing the reeling or leading out of the water pipe 8. The position of the water pipe 8 wrapped around the reel 2 can be accurately controlled to ensure that the water pipe 8 is wound to the outside of the reel 2 with uniform pressure and distribution.

[0043] As shown in Figure 5: the guide unit 43 includes a transmission part 431, a guide frame 432 and a guide wheel 433; the transmission sleeve of the transmission part 431 is installed on the outside of the double-rest screw 41; the guide frame 432 is fixedly arranged in an inclined state on the side of the transmission part 431 close to the guide outlet 11, and the guide frame 432 is a rectangular frame arranged in a U shape; there are two groups of guide wheels 433, and the two groups of guide wheels 433 are respectively rotated through the first rotating shaft 434 and are arranged across the guide frame 432 and are respectively arranged close to the two ends of the guide frame 432.

[0044] The water pipe 8 is arranged through the guide frame 432 and is placed between two sets of guide wheels 433. In the working state, when the double-rest screw 41 rotates under the drive of the driven gear 45, it will synchronously drive the transmission sleeve 431 installed outside itself to move, driving the transmission to move back and forth along the axis of the double-rest screw 41, thereby cooperating with the guide frame 432 and the guide wheel 433 to orderly import and export the water pipe 8.

[0045] As shown in Figure 4: the control module 5 includes a control compartment 51 and a control panel arranged in the control compartment 51, the first control button 52 and the second control button 53 are relatively embedded in the control compartment 51 and are connected to the control panel, and the surface of the control panel is also embedded in the control panel together with the indicator lights 54, and the indicator lights 54 are provided in multiple groups.

[0046] The first control button 52 is the export button, and the second control button 53 is the reeling button; in the working state, when it is necessary to control the water pipe 8 wound outside the reeling wheel 2 to be exported, the staff only needs to press the first control button 52. At this time, the control panel will transmit a control instruction to the driving module 3 to drive the reeling wheel 2 toward the guide outlet 11, thereby driving the water pipe 8 to be exported; when it is necessary to reel in the exported water pipe 8; similarly, only the second control button 53 needs to be pressed. At this time, the control panel will transmit a control instruction to the driving module 3 to drive the reeling wheel 2 toward the side away from the export outlet 11, thereby realizing the reeling of the exported water pipe 8. The indicator light 54 is provided with at least three groups, the first group is used to indicate the on and off status of the first control button 52, the second group is used to indicate the on and off status of the second control button 53, and the third group is used to indicate the on and off status of the wireless control module 6; the control buttons are provided with at least two groups, and the reeling acceleration / export acceleration can also be added by adding an acceleration control button.

[0047] As shown in FIG2 , the wireless control module 6 includes a waterproof shell 61 , a signal transmitting element disposed in the waterproof shell 61 , and a third control button 62 which is installed in the waterproof shell 61 when embedded and is in communication with the signal transmitting element.

[0048] In the working state, when the water pipe 8 is pulled out toward the working area to the required length under the control of the staff, when the pipe supply needs to be stopped, the staff only needs to press and hold the third control button 62 to control the driving module 3 to stop the pipe supply work. Pressing the third button once can realize the export work of the water pipe 8. Pressing the third control button 62 twice in succession can realize the reeling work of the water pipe 8. The above operations can also be realized through external remote control.

[0049] As shown in Figure 2: the anti-overwinding module 7 includes a fixed ring 71, a buffer head 72, a spring 73 and a contact sensor 74; the fixed ring 71 is fixedly mounted on the outside of the water pipe 8 and is arranged close to the wireless control module 6; the buffer head 72 is coaxially mounted on the outside of the water pipe 8 through the spring 73 and is fixedly connected to the fixed ring 71; the contact sensor 74 is embedded in one side of the shell 1 and is arranged at the outlet 11.

[0050] In the working state, when the reeling wheel 2 is reeling in the water pipe 8, in order to prevent the water pipe 8 from being reeled in as a whole into the shell 1, before the water pipe 8 is completely reeled in, the buffer head 72 will preferentially be set close to the outlet 11 and contact the contact sensor 74 set at the outlet 11. After the contact sensor connects with the buffer head 72, the reeling of the water pipe 8 will be automatically stopped. In order to prevent the water pipe 8 from being further pulled due to dry sensing delay during the sensing process, the buffer head 72 that continues to shrink when the buffer head 72 contacts the contact sensor 74 will continue to be compressed toward the fixed ring 71 under tension, and the spring 73 is used to make up for the sensing delay time, thereby ensuring that the water pipe 8 can be automatically reeled in even when unattended; the buffer head 72 is spherical and larger than the outlet 11.

[0051] As shown in FIG4 , a handle 12 is hingedly provided on one side of the upper surface of the housing 1 .

[0052] In the working state, the handle 12 is used for the user to lift the hose reel.

[0053] As shown in FIG. 4 , a mounting seat 14 is hingedly provided on a side of the housing 1 away from the outlet 11 via a second rotating shaft 13 .

[0054] In the working state, the mounting base 14 is used to fix the hose reel on a fixed object and since the mounting base and the housing 1 are hinged via the second rotating shaft 13, the housing 1 has the freedom to swing left and right, which makes it more operable and can swing in different directions according to usage requirements.

[0055] The present invention can not only remotely perform the tube retracting and unreeling operation but also has an unmanned reeling function and can automatically stop reeling to avoid over-reeling.

[0056] The above embodiments merely represent one or more embodiments of the present invention, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that a person skilled in the art may make various modifications and improvements without departing from the scope of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
