Abstract
Hose () has a biasing spring () extends along the full length. Spring () is covered with hose cover material () on the outside and hose support layer () and hose sealing layer () on the inside to form a sealed hose. The invention comprises the improvement of the hose body (layers (), () and ()) by defining the layers as bowed inward radially between the individual spring coils to create a helical indentation () around hose (). This helical indentation () causes the hose body materials (layers (), () and ()) move inward radially when hose () is retracted and the coils of spring () are forced close together longitudinally. Thus, layers (), () and () are folded substantially with spring () when retracted, greatly reducing the volume of hose () in its retracted position and substantially protecting (), () and () from damage by abrasion an puncture.
