ABSTRACT:
A device for rotatably supporting a drum or reel of the type on which cable is wound. The vertical flanges of respective angle members are spaced apart to receive therebetween the circular end flange of the cable drum. The drum flange is supported on roller bearings mounted between the angle members. An arcuate cutout is formed in the vertical flange of one angle in order to accommodate the outer layer of cable when the drum is full or nearly full. The invention also provides a toggle type mechanism used to add an undamaged circular flange onto the damaged flange of a cable drum. The toggle mechanism extends from the undamaged flange and may be expanded after having been passed through the central opening of the damaged flange. Expansion of the connector rigidly holds the undamaged flange on the end of the drum, with a spacer disc acting to maintain the flanges apart from one another.
