The invention discloses a lateral coil feeding device for a cable former. The lateral coil feeding device comprises a
cement face, a cable former body and a coil feeding mechanism. The
cement face isprovided with a first groove and a second groove. The coil feeding mechanism is arranged in the second groove and comprises a coil feeding framework, a
moving frame, a triangle fixing frame, a first air cylinder
piston rod, a fixing base, an L-shaped rack, a wire coil and a second air cylinder
piston rod. A hollow portion is arranged on the coil feeding framework. One end of the second air cylinder
piston rod is fixedly connected with the coil feeding framework. The other end of the second air cylinder
piston rod is fixedly connected with the
moving frame. According to the lateral coil feedingdevice, by means of the first air cylinder
piston rod, the L-shaped rack can be driven to rotate on the fixing base, thus the wire coil is driven to rotate by 90 degrees, by arranging the second aircylinder
piston rod, the
moving frame can be pushed to slide horizontally, the wire coil reaches the designed position to be installed manually, manual installing is convenient, use is convenient, andhoisting is
safer compared with a traditional technology.
