## Abstract

A spray foam hose storage system includes a shaft and an elongated sleeve having the shaft concentrically positioned inside, where the elongated sleeve configured to rotate about the shaft. In addition, the system includes a cantilever arm having a proximate end and a distal end, a base plate securing the cantilever arm perpendicular to the elongated sleeve, where the cantilever arm is offset from the elongated sleeve by a distance. The cantilever arm includes a plurality of slats positioned to form a concave periphery for a spray foam hose to be draped back and forth thereon.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A spray foam hose storage system, the system comprising:
a shaft;
an elongated sleeve having the shaft concentrically positioned inside and the elongated sleeve configured to rotate about the shaft;
a cantilever arm having a proximate end and a distal end;
a base plate secured to the proximate end of the cantilever arm and perpendicular to the elongated sleeve, wherein the cantilever arm offset from the elongated sleeve by the base plate; and
the cantilever arm having a plurality of slats positioned thereon to form a concave periphery for a spray foam hose to be draped back and forth thereon.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The spray foam hose storage system of claim 1, wherein the cantilever arm configured to rotate in a horizontal plane between a first position and a second position.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The spray foam hose storage system of claim 1, further comprising an end plate secured to the distal end of the cantilever arm, wherein the plurality of slats are secured between the base plate and the end plate.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The spray foam hose storage system of claim 1, wherein the shaft and the elongated sleeve are mounted vertically.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The spray foam hose storage system of claim 1, further comprising a diagonal brace secured between the elongated sleeve and the cantilever arm.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The spray foam hose storage system of claim 1, further comprising a horizontal brace extending at least from the shaft to beyond the distal end of the cantilever arm, wherein the shaft is secured to the horizontal brace.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The spray foam hose storage system of claim 1, further comprising a foot configured to receive a lower end of the shaft therein and to support the shaft vertically.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The spray foam hose storage system of claim 1, further comprising a stop secured to the distal end of the cantilever arm, the stop rotatable from a first position to a second position and configured to prevent the spray foam hose from slipping off the distal end when in the first position.

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

The spray foam hose storage system of claim 1, further comprising a connector to secure the shaft to the horizontal brace.

### Claim 10

A method to store a spray foam hose, the method comprising:
swinging a cantilever arm out from a first position inside a container, wherein the cantilever arm is offset from, and secured to, a sleeve mounted vertically inside and proximate an entry of the container;
draping the spray foam hose back and forth over the cantilever arm; and
swinging the cantilever arm between the first position inside the container to a second position outside the container, wherein the sleeve is positioned inside the container so that the entry to the container can be closed when the cantilever arm is in the first position.

### Claim 11 (depends on 10)

The method to store a spray foam hose of claim 10, wherein the container is a box truck.

### Claim 12 (depends on 10)

The method to store a spray foam hose of claim 10, wherein the entry of the container is closed using a roll-up door.

### Claim 13 (depends on 10)

The method to store a spray foam hose of claim 10, wherein the entry of the container is closed using a swing door.

### Claim 14 (depends on 10)

The method to store a spray foam hose of claim 10, wherein the cantilever arm is supported by a horizontal brace spanning between a pair of opposing walls of the container.

### Claim 15

A spray foam hose storage system, the system comprising:
an elongated sleeve configured to rotate;
a cantilever arm having a proximate end and a distal end; and
a base plate securing the proximate end of the cantilever arm perpendicular to the elongated sleeve and positioned to offset the cantilever arm by a distance from the elongated sleeve, wherein the cantilever arm configured to rotate in a horizontal plane between a first position and a second position.

### Claim 16 (depends on 15)

The spray foam hose storage system of claim 15, the cantilever arm further comprising a concave periphery to drape the spray foam hose in a serpentine position over the cantilever arm.

### Claim 17 (depends on 15)

The spray foam hose storage system of claim 15, further comprising a diagonal brace secured between the elongated sleeve and the cantilever arm.

### Claim 18 (depends on 15)

The spray foam hose storage system of claim 15, further comprising a horizontal brace extending at least from the elongated sleeve to beyond the distal end of the cantilever arm to support the elongated sleeve in a vertical orientation.

### Claim 19 (depends on 15)

The spray foam hose storage system of claim 15, further comprising a stop secured to the distal end of the cantilever arm, the stop rotatable from a first position to a second position and configured to prevent the spray foam hose from slipping off the distal end when in the first position.

### Claim 20 (depends on 15)

The spray foam hose storage system of claim 15, further comprising a base to support a lower end of the elongated sleeve.
