A pneumatic linear ejector (1) of the type attachable to an arm (101) of a movable arm unwinder (100) for reels (102); the ejector (1) comprising a plurality of segments (2a, 2b, 2c) nested one in the other and slidable over each other, each having a respective seat (3) for the passage and/or accommodation of a chuck (104) configured to grasp a core (106) of a reel (102), the seats (3) are coaxial and define a central axis (A); the first segment (2a) is defined by an annular cylinder (20) attachable to an unwinder (100) and having a base (21) adapted to face the unwinder (100); a closing portion (25) is fixed to the first segment (2a) and closes the seat (3), the closing portion (25) is configured to support the chuck (104).

The present invention is an apparatus, system and method for providing pay-out head utilized in unwrapping elongated materials with adjustable pintle flanges that allows for keeping a coil pack stay concentric on the head during the unwrapping.

A scarf-joint structure for the paper tube of a film dispenser is mounted in a film dispenser, which includes a frame connected with a film installation unit and an adjustment unit. The film installation unit is installed with a film roll and consists of a first positioning member and a second positioning member. The adjustment unit is formed with an operating part and a connecting part, and the operating part is connected with an adjusting member, which is threadably fixed with a screw fastener and further, an elastic member is mounted between the operating part and the connecting part. Thus, the film roll, the first positioning member and a second positioning member can be rotated synchronously, able to prevent the film roll from running idle, causing dislocation and falling off.

A system includes a drum assembly that includes a support bar having a first end and a second end, and a plurality of drum segments coupled to the support bar. The drum segments are movable between retracted and extended positions, and the drum assembly is configured to be disposed within an interior region of a coil of flexible pipe when the plurality of drum segments are in the retracted position. The system also includes a first containment flange coupled to the drum assembly at the first end, a second containment flange coupled to the drum assembly at the second end, a first coupling device configured to removably couple the first containment flange to the drum assembly, and a second coupling device configured to removably couple the second containment flange to the drum assembly. The first and second containment flanges are configured to contain the flexible pipe.

A cable reel apparatus that has a cable reel for holding a coil of cable and includes a central longitudinal axis. A first flange is configured to be rotatably coupled to a first frame and has opposite inner and outer sides. A second flange that is separate from the first flange is configured to be rotatably coupled to a second frame and has opposite inner and outer sides. One of the first and second flanges includes a hub portion that extends transversely from the inner side thereof. The first and second flanges are configured to be releasably coupled to one another for supporting a coil of cable on the hub portion between the first and second flanges along the central longitudinal axis of the cable reel and are configured to be decoupled from one another when replacing the coil of cable once dispensed from the cable reel apparatus.

A system for using a cable reel apparatus that includes providing components of a separable cable reel for assembly of a cable reel apparatus. The components include a first frame, a second frame, and the second frame is separate from the first frame. A first flange is configured to engage the first frame. The outer side of the first flange faces the first frame when the first flange is engaged therewith. A second flange is configured to engage the second frame. The outer side of the second flange faces the second frame when the second flange is engaged therewith. The system also includes providing a pre-wound, reel-less coil of cable that is separate from the separable cable reel. The first and second flanges are configured to releasably couple with one another to support the pre-wound, reel-less coil of cable therebetween.

A method of installing a coil of cable on a cable reel apparatus that includes the steps of placing the coil of cable on a first flange of a separable cable reel of the cable reel apparatus; releasably coupling the first flange with a separate second flange of the separable cable reel after placing the coil of cable on the first flange; and placing the separable cable reel in a bag of the cable reel apparatus. The first flange includes a hub portion configured to be received in an inner diameter of the coil of cable, and the hub portion supports the coil of cable between the first and second flanges when the first and second flanges are releasably coupled. The coil of cable is a pre-wound, reel-less coil of cable.
