ABSTRACT:
A machine for producing reinforcing cages for concrete pipes is described, the reinforcing cages comprising longitudinal wires and a winding wire wound around them and welded to them at the intersections. In order to make manual work superfluous and to improve the machine performance, a wire feed device is provided which automatically fits the machine with the required longitudinal bars before each winding process. The device comprises a feed apparatus (21) for a plurality of wires (33), adjoining guide tubes (37), whose mouths are aligned with the collecting funnels (9), and a cutting device (38). The said machine parts may be combined to form a feed frame (44) which can be displaced longitudinally altogether. Guide mouthpieces (39) are distributed uniformly over the circumference on the same diameter as the cutting devices (38) on a supporting disk (51) which is rotationally fixed to the main disk but can be displaced longitudinally with the feed frame (44). When there are fewer feed channels than the maximum number of longitudinal bars which can be inserted, the fitment process takes place in a cyclic method which permits a plurality of fitment variants.
