ABSTRACT:
A shipping reel for storing coiled products, such as hose, cable, rope, wire and the like, and apparatus facilitating the assembly thereof. Reel components, inclusive of side flanges and a center drum that are provided in a disassembled more compact relation, are readily assembled at a point of use. Upset ends of a plurality of through rods engage dished washers disposed in counterbored recesses of a top flange to pass through the center drum and through similar openings and counterbored recesses of a base flange. Hammer blows directed at the upper upset ends of the rods drive the rods through openings in locking washers of dished recess shape that are disposed on bushings of an assembly table supporting the base flange and staking pins disposed in the bushings and having cross chisel points slightly flare the lower ends of the rods to hold the washers, flanges and center drum in assembled relationship for use. The assembly table provides a centering guide plug that supports guide fingers in alternate positions. When the fingers are raised, they pass through and guide a mandrel hole of the base flange to a center position about the plug. As the base flange is positioned on the table, the guide fingers are automatically lowered to a radial position that locates and centers the drum and that further guides the through rods to proper position.
