2. Hose reel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hose_reel

   A hose reel is a cylindrical spindle made of either metal, fiberglass, or plastic and is used for storing a hose. The most common styles of hose reels are spring driven (which is self retracting), hand crank, or motor driven. Hose reels are categorized by the diameter and length of the hose they hold, the pressure rating and the

3. Telescopic cylinder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telescopic_cylinder

   Single acting telescopic cylinders are the simplest and most common design. As with a single acting rod style cylinder, the single acting telescopic cylinder is extended using hydraulic or pneumatic pressure but retracts using external forces when the fluid medium is removed and relieved to the reservoir.

   A pipe support or pipe hanger is a designed element that transfer the load from a pipe to the supporting structures. The load includes the weight of the pipe proper, the content that the pipe carries, all the pipe fittings attached to pipe, and the pipe covering such as insulation .

5. Cable reel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cable_reel

   Retractable cable reels are particularly useful for environments where access to electricity or air is needed in a wide variety of places. All retractable hose reels operate using a constant-force spring to provide torsion for the spool, and a ratcheting mechanism to prevent the cable from retracting while it is being used.

6. Overhead line - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overhead_line

   For medium and high speeds, the wires are generally tensioned by weights or occasionally by hydraulic tensioners. Either method is known as "auto-tensioning" (AT) or "constant tension" and ensures that the tension is virtually independent of temperature. Tensions are typically between 9 and 20 kN (2,000 and 4,500 lbf) per wire. Where weights ...

7. Single- and double-acting cylinders - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-_and_double-acting...

   Typical horizontal steam engine with double-acting cylinder. A double-acting cylinder is a cylinder in which the working fluid acts alternately on both sides of the piston. . In order to connect the piston in a double-acting cylinder to an external mechanism, such as a crank shaft, a hole must be provided in one end of the cylinder for the piston rod, and this is fitted with a gland or ...
