Japanese Patent JP4128797

B2

A coil handling device (10) for engaging a coil (C) having a depth and an interior surface (I) defining a diameter and defining a longitudinal axis, is configured to engage the coil (C) with the longitudinal axis oriented vertically and reorient the coil to position the longitudinal axis horizontally. The handling device (10) includes a transport assembly (16), a lift assembly (14) and a manipulating assembly (12). The manipulating assembly (12) is mounted to the lift assembly (14) and includes a pair of spaced apart support arms (20) and a pivoting carriage (24) carried by the support arms (20). The carriage (24) includes a locking arm (38) for engaging the interior surface of the coil (C) along the depth of the coil and a thrust lever (42) including a bearing arm (50) and a lever arm disposed at an obtuse angle to one another opposite the locking arm (38). The thrust lever (42) is pivotably mounted to the carriage (24) between a first position wherein the locking arm (38) and bearing arm (50) readily insert into the coil (C) and a second position wherein the bearing arm (50) is urged against the interior surface of the coil to lock the coil between the locking arm (38) and the bearing arm (50). The pivoting carriage (24) is pivotable between a first position in which the coil longitudinal axis is vertical and a second position in which coil longitudinal axis is horizontal.
