Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé pour le transfert d'une bobine métallique (4), en particulier d'une bobine métallique dans une cage à bobine, sur un parcours de transfert (31) entre une première position (5) de la bobine et une deuxième position (6) de la bobine, la bobine métallique (4) étant soutenue, pendant le transfert sur le parcours de transfert (31) par sections par des galets support (11, 12, 13, 14, 15) et la bobine métallique (4) étant simultanément déroulée. Par la modification de la place de rouleaux support disposés les uns à côté des autres, il se forme une auge de déroulement (32) s'élargissant dans le sens (8) du parcours de transfert (31), la bobine (4) étant supportée dans la première position (5) de la bobine au moyen de deux galets support (11, 12) disposés sur une première partie de cadre (29) et étant déplacée à partir de cette première position (5) de la bobine vers la deuxième position (6) de la bobine par le basculement et l'abaissement simultanés de cette partie de cadre (29).
