Cable Transport Device

摘要

A cable transport device having a pivotably mounted cable transporter, a first drive means connected in a stationary manner to a base frame and intended for achieving an exactly defined pivot movement of the cable transporter around a pivot axis and a second drive means for synchronous driving of at least two cooperating pressure rollers. The second drive means with a drive axle for the pressure rollers is connected in a stationary manner to the base frame, and the drive axle of the second drive means coincides with the pivot axis for the cable transporter. In additional versions, the second drive means with a drive axle for the pressure rollers is also connected in a stationary manner to the base frame, and the rollers' axes of rotation are parallel to one another and parallel to a common pitch axis. In these versions, transmission of the drive movement to the toothed belt driving the pressure rollers is effected via a toothed belt which is tensioned symmetrically to the center of rotation of the pivot axis between a first intermediate shaft arranged on a base plate of the cable transporter and a second intermediate shaft fixed to the machine frame, the pitch axis of the cable transporter being identical to the axis of the first intermediate shaft. The cable transport device may be equipped with a guide sleeve that includes a grooved plate and a cover plate that may be replaced for adaptation to different cable diameters and for correction of the cable position.

主权项

1. A cable transport machine comprising:
a base frame; a pivotably mounted cable transporter; a first drive motor mounted in stationary mounting on said base frame, said first drive motor being operatively connected to said cable transporter to effect controlled pivot movement of said cable transporter around a pivot axis; a plurality of pressure rollers operatively supported by said cable transporter, each of said pressure rollers having a respective axis of rotation, said plurality of respective axes of rotation of said pressure rollers being parallel to one another and also parallel to the pivot axis, at least one of said plurality of pressure rollers being laterally adjustable; a second drive motor; and, a drive axle of said second drive motor operatively connected to synchronously drive said plurality of pressure rollers, said drive axle having an axis coincident with the pivot axis around which said cable transporter undergoes controlled pivot movement.
