Abstract

See full text

A retractable shower hose apparatus (11) has a housing enveloping a reel (21) mounted for rotation around an irrotatably axle (18). The axle (18) has a lumen (20) communicable with a shower valve supply of water whereby water can reach an axle port (19) disposed in a chamber (22) formed around the axle within the reel. The chamber (22) communicates with a shower hose reel coupling on the periphery of the reel to deliver water to the bore of the shower hose (24, 26). The reel has a depth equal to the diameter of the hose and is confined between closely fitting front and rear panels (12, 13) of the housing so that the hose can only coil radially out from the axis to a lead through (10). A coil spring (21.9) is disposed in the chamber (22) to act between the axle and reel and forcibly urge the hose to coil around the reel and retract into the housing.
