ABSTRACT:
A reel loader having drive means located on a bed employed for supporting cable reels and the like. The reels include a center section for holding the cable with a flange at either end of the center section, each flange defining a rim adapted for engaging the bed. The bed carries reel drive rollers comprising rim engaging surfaces so that at least one rim of a reel loaded onto a bed will engage a rim engaging surface. Driving means for the rollers operate to rotate the reels in either direction whereby cable can be fed from or drawn onto a reel. Control means are associated with the drive means so that the pressure of a rim against a drive roller can be varied for thereby controlling the driving force applied by a drive roller.
