Abstract (en)

A unit (100) for the production of safety cages for corks of bottles for effervescent beverages provided with: an annular groove (21) designed to bend a metal wire (101) about an axis (A) of bending to form a substantially circular closed loop; and four forming assemblies (50) set about the axis (A) of bending and provided with respective gripping heads (51) for constraining the loop itself in respective gripping points (P); each gripping head (51) being able to turn about a respective axis (B) of rotation transverse with respect to the axis (A) of bending to twist the metal wire (101), and being provided with a portion that is axially fixed with respect to the corresponding axis (B) of rotation and with a portion that can slide axially with respect to the axis (B) of rotation itself between a position of superposition, in which it forms a seat (52) that can be engaged by said wire (101) in a corresponding gripping point (P), and a position of release, in which it releases the gripping point (P) once the wire (101) is twisted.
