Out of interest, why?  Why use Apache as a reverse proxy to another Apache 
instance on the same machine?

Show us more detail from the access log.  You say this happens after some 
period of inactivity - can you show us all the log file lines you get after 
that inactivity, when the problem occurs?

Does that restart both Apache instances or just the reverse proxy?

I'd start by:

 - examining the log files of the proxy server
 - examining the log files of the web server
 - checking that the web service is running when the proxy complains
 - accessing the web service directly (bypass the proxy) to see whether the 
response is as expected
