ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a lightweight reel for the storage and transportation of precoiled lengths of tubing and the like characterized by two large diameter hoops together with three or more spokes for each hoop, the spokes having their adjacent ends connected together and their remote ends attached to one of the hoops in substantially radially-extending equiangularly-spaced relation, all of which cooperate with one another when thus assembled to define a pair of flanges adapted to confine the sides of an open-centered coil of precoiled goods to be positioned therebetween; and, a self-adjusting hub-forming assembly for detachably interconnecting the two flanges together through the central opening in the coil, such assembly including a subassembly for each pair of more or less transversely-aligned spokes of the two flanges consisting of an elastic member of a length less than the width of the coil to be confined between the flanges and a pair of connectors for fastening each such elastic member through the open center of the coil to opposed points on the transversely-aligned pair of flange spokes, both of the connectors of the pair associated with each elastic member being adjustable lengthwise of a spoke, at least one of the connectors in each pair thereof being detachably connectable to a spoke, and the detachable connector of the pair having springable jaws for gripping the spoke to maintain the hub-forming subassembly in radially adjusted position within the open center of the coil.
