Zusammenfassung:A reel assembly includes a rotatable member that rotates about a first axis to wind and unwind a hose from the rotatable member, where the rotatable member also rotates about a second axis that is substantially perpendicular to the first axis. A housing substantially encloses the rotatable member and has a first aperture that receives the hose therethrough and a second aperture spaced apart from the first aperture. A conduit assembly is at least partially disposed within the housing and extends between a first end and a second end, the first end being releasably and operatively coupleable with a liquid source, the first end being accessible through the second aperture and positioned substantially along the second axis. The second end is in fluid communication with a connector on the rotatable member that releasably couples to the hose. The conduit assembly also has a flow control valve coupled to a conduit portion of the conduit assembly and configured to selectively allow fluid flow through the conduit assembly from the liquid source to the connector. The conduit assembly and the rotatable member can move together about the second axis relative to at least a portion of the housing during operation of the rotatable member.
