(54) Automatic reinforcing rod and/or wire head and tail bending unit for bending machines and/or arc-welded steelmesh forming machines


(57) The present invention relates to an automatic bending unit suitable for bending the heads and tails of reinforcing rods and/or wires of homogeneous and non-homogeneous cross section for automatic bending machines and/or automatic machines for forming arc-welded steel mesh before the mesh arc-welding unit. It includes a rocking-lever device (10) and/or other devices serving as bending templates positioned according to the type of bends to make, head or tail, driven by an appropriate oscillating hydraulic cylinder (5) and/or cam and/or other equivalent device, positioned and controlled in coordination with another cylinder (15) with a counteracting function (16) that presses the reinforcing rod (1) and/or wire to be bent in the fulcrum position.
