ABSTRACT:
The apparatus for transporting cable sections enables transporting the cable sections cyclically or intermittently along a cable section processing line by means of double grippers which grasp opposite ends of an associated cable section. These double grippers are arranged at a substantially uniform spacing from one another at the outer periphery of a transport element. The double grippers are rotationally mounted perpendicular to the direction of movement of the transport element and perpendicular to the lengthwise axis of the grasped opposite ends of the cable sections. At least at two locations of the transport element there are stationarily arranged gripper actuators for opening each closed double gripper which has been closed under the action of the force of an associated spring, once in order to receive an infed cable section, and once to release the finished-processed cable section. The opposite ends of each engaged cable section are moved past cable work stations and during a work cycle, after having previously centered the related double gripper, processed or fitted with a terminal. By incorporating a pivot device or a rotary device each double gripper together with the grasped cable section, can be latchably rotated about its axis of rotation through predetermined angles.
