Abstract
A cable housing device (10) comprises a housing (1) which comprises outer and inner sub-housings (11 and 12). The inner sub-housing (12) provides a hub upon which an electric cable (500) can be releasably wound in a uniplanar manner. A combined handle and electrical socket piece (300) pivotally mounted in a central, semi-circular hole through the sub-housing (12) is turnable from the plane of the housing (1) to a plane perpendicular thereto to reveal two socket holes (321 and 322) to receive a two-pin plug and to enable the piece (300) to be rotated to rotate the sub-housing (12) in the sub-housing (11) in order to wind-on the cable (500).
