ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for winding or unwinding of a cord-shaped material, e.g., of electrical cables, steel cables, or ropes, on and off a spool. The apparatus has two downwardly pointing arms, the lower ends of which each carry a sleeve for receiving the spool. Since the exchange of particularly heavy weight spools previously was time consuming and physically very strenuous, whereby in addition a great danger of injury exists for service personnel, for the elimination of these disadvantages the invention provides that about a horizontal axis at least one of the sleeve arms is able to be swung up out to over the space assumed by a spool which has been set on the floor, and the apparatus is open on the side of the swingeable-up sleeve arm to an extent facilitating a relative movement of the spool and the apparatus.
