Helical hydraulic hose configuration

A hydraulically-powered robot comprising:

• a first body portion having a first internal volume, wherein the first body portion houses a first electrical component;
• a second body portion having a second internal volume, the second body portion rotatably coupled to the first body portion, wherein the second body portion houses a second electrical component;
• and
• a plurality of hydraulic hoses, wherein each hydraulic hose of the plurality of hydraulic hoses includes a respective first hose portion positioned within the first internal volume of the first body portion and a respective second hose portion positioned within the second internal volume of the second body portion, and wherein the plurality of hydraulic hoses is arranged in a helical configuration about an axis that extends from the first internal volume of the first body portion to the second internal volume of the second body portion, wherein the helical configuration of the plurality of hydraulic hoses forms an internal conduit along the axis that extends from the first internal volume of the first body portion to the second internal volume of the second body portion, the first electrical component electrically communicatively coupled to the second electrical component by at least one electrical wire routed through the internal conduit.
