<p>A cable drum transportation and handling apparatus for mounting, transporting and handling large cable drums includes a supporting structure, which supporting structure may be mounted on a truck or trailer. The apparatus includes stabilizers mounted to the supporting structure, a hydraulics control system and an operator station, a gravity drive having a drive wheel tire for turning the drum to spool cable in or out, and a hydraulic drive system for the gravity drive. An adjustable mechanism ensures firm connection between the tire and a cable drum, when a drum is mounted on the apparatus. A lever arm or bolt pattern puts more or less tension on the gravity drive, for engagement, by moving the drive up and down. Opposing hydraulically-operated lift arms pivotally mounted on an upper part of the supporting structure may be pivoted outwardly and rearwardly. The lift arms laterally close to grasp the drum. Mounts on the end of each arm have a center pin that inserts into the center axis of the drum and a pair of engagement pins that are inserted between the spokes of the drum to assist in holding the drum in place. The apparatus may also include a mounting bracket for a banding cart to hold banding for the cabling.</p> |
