Abstract

There is provided an hydraulic reeling-in device for a water-transmitting, flexible hose, having mounting elements, a hose reel, an hydraulic driver kinematically connected to the hose reel, a water inlet connectable to a water-supplying pipe line and a water outlet provided with a connector for the hose. There is further provided a valve having two positions, a first position in which the water is permitted to pass from the water inlet through the water outlet into the hose, and a second position in which water is permitted to pass from the water inlet to the hydraulic driver in order to reel-in the hose, and a tubular member adapted, in the second position of the valve, to conduct water to the hydraulic driver.
