ABSTRACT:
A clamping mechanism for temporarily clamping cables and the like for the purpose of tensioning or stressing such cables comprising a clamping wheel rotatably mounted at a carriage. A plurality of guide elements for the cable to be tensioned arranged about the periphery of the clamping wheel. These guide elements each comprise two clamping jaws. The clamping jaws of each pair can be pressed against one another by the force of spring means in order to fixedly clamp a section of cable disposed therebetween. Means controlled by the rotating clamping wheel are provided in order to release or eliminate the clamping action of the cooperating pairs of jaws for selectively receiving and releasing the cable at predetermined portions of the revolving path of travel of the clamping wheel. As control element there is employed a single large roller which is eccentrically mounted with regard to the axis of the clamping wheel.
