Device for separating a plurality of coils, in particular those made up of metal strips, forming a packet

摘要

The invention relates to a device for separating a plurality of coils (3-6) arranged close together and forming a packet and the inner layers of which are displaced out of the respective centre plane of the coil into the region of the adjacent coil. In order to be able to remove these coils (3-6) in a trouble-free manner from a common carrier despite the nesting of the inner layers, a supporting device (11, 12) with expandable or extendable supports (20) is provided. After lifting off the coil packet from the carrier, the individual coils can be moved apart by expanding the supports, while retaining their relative position to the region of the support supporting them. The coils separated in this way can be removed individually from the carrier without hindrance by the adjacent coil. <IMAGE>
