A toy loom allows for children to hold warp threads under tension to facilitate the interweaving of the threads. Resulting weaves can be collected and/or used for play. The toy loom also includes metallic beads, a premium metal charm, lots of clips and clasps, and different colored threads. The toy loom helps children learn different techniques to make a variety of textured and colorful bracelets and necklaces.

A device for producing a strand or a cable, in particular a wire strand or wire cable, which device includes a rotatable arrangement for feeding cords to a twisting point, at which the cords are to be twisted with one another, and an installation for heating at least one of the cords. The heating installation is rotatable jointly with the feed arrangement. The heating installation is designed to heat a cord provided for forming a center strand or a cable core and/or cords for forming outer strands, and preferably has burner for fuel and/or an electrically operated heater.

According to embodiments of the present invention, a stranded conductor is formed in which the occurrence of defects, such as strand unevenness of filaments and outward protrusion of filaments, is inhibited. According to embodiments of the present invention, a stranded conductor (1a) includes soft filaments (2a) stranded together. The soft filaments (2a) include a soft filament made of an aluminum material, disposed along a center (101), and include six soft filaments, twelve soft filaments, and eighteen soft filaments made of an aluminum material, disposed around and concentrically with the center. The filaments are softened filaments that are softened. A lay length (Pa) is from 6.2 times to 15.7 times a conductor diameter of the stranded conductor.

The present disclosure relates to a twisting system for twisting multiple conductors together. In one implementation, the twisting system may include a rotatable twisting head having multiple holders for individual conductors of a cable to be twisted, and a loading device for sequentially loading the holders with the individual conductors. The loading device may be configured to be displaced into a transfer position identical for all individual conductors for loading the twisting head, and the twisting head may be configured to rotate a free holder of the twisting head into a suitable receiving position for being loaded with an individual conductor. The present disclosure also relates to a method for loading a twisting head with individual conductors.

A strander apparatus includes a disk and a plurality of cradles, each of the cradles includes a reel and a cradle shaft, the cradle shaft extending in an axial direction from the disk. Each reel dispenses cable. The strander includes a main shaft, wherein the cradles are disposed on the cradle shafts radially about the main shaft. Planetary gears are disposed between the main shaft and the plurality of cradle shafts. The strander operates in one of a planetary mode and a rigid mode. In the planetary mode, while the main shaft rotates, the planetary gears are engaged to rotate each of the plurality of cradles on the respective cradle shafts. In the rigid mode, the planetary gears are disengaged.

A cable bead comprising an annular core and a side wire spirally wrapped up around the annular core, wherein the annular core is made up of a round steel wire made to circle once or made, without being stranded, to circle 2 to 10 times side by side, and wherein the side wire is a round steel wire consecutive from the annular core. This provides a high-strength cable bead that can press a tire main body against a wheel without fail even if a tire is charged with a high load.
