ABSTRACT:
There is provided a coil upending and transporting apparatus which includes a main frame having means for allowing the frame to be suspended from a suspension means, and a sub-frame pivoted to the main frame at a horizontal axis located below the suspension means. Power means such as hydraulic cylinders are provided for positively pivoting the sub-frame with respect to the main frame about the axis. The sub-frame includes support means for engagement under a coil whose axis is vertical, and an elongate holding mandrel disposed so as to be parallel with the axis of a coil at one end of which the support means is engaged. Control means are also provided for moving the holding mandrel selectively (1) in the direction of its elongation, and (2) perpendicular to both its own elongation direction and the direction of said horizontal axis.
