ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for moving flexible elongated members, such as cable, in which a wheel having a peripheral abutment surface against which the elongated member is to be clamped, carries a plurality of pivoting clamp elements spaced circumferentially. The position of the clamp elements relative to the peripheral surface of the wheel is controlled by a guide track followed by the clamp elements as the wheel rotates. When the clamp elements have been closed upon a flexible member carried by the periphery of the wheel, pressure is applied to the clamp elements from an arcuate surface of a block adjacent to a portion of the periphery of the wheel, the position of the block relative to the wheel being adjustable.
