ABSTRACT:
A method and a device for automatically mounting spokes in wheels. In the method, the hub of a wheel and the rim of a wheel are interconnected by an inner layer of spokes being supplied in a first station, whereafter the procedure is repeated in a second station for mounting an outer layer of spokes. If desired, this can be done simultaneously with the mounting of an inner layer of spokes in a new wheel in the first station. The device for automatically mounting spokes in wheels comprises rim support means, hub securing means, means for feeding spokes into flange apertures in the hub, means for clamping the ends of the spokes for defining the positions thereof, and means for threading nipples onto the spokes.
