Twisting flyer for single-twist cable stranding machine

A twisting flyer for a single-twist cable stranding machine, which is adapted to rotate about a rotation axis comprising two shoulders connected by crossmembers, and an articulated structure which is adapted to translate on said crossmembers, the twisting flyer comprises in turn:

• a first carriage which is provided with means for translation on first of said crossmembers and which supports a guide pulley for a cable,
• a second carriage provided with means for translation on second of said crossmembers, which is adapted to translate in a similar manner and in a diametrically opposite position with respect to said first carriage relative to said rotation axis, said second carriage supporting a counterweight for said guide pulley,
• a first pair of rods which are hinged with one end thereof to said first carriage and with another end thereof to
• a second pair of rods which are hinged with one end thereof to said second carriage and with another end thereof to said first pair of rods,
• balancing weights at hinge regions between said first pair of rods and said second pair of rods, which are adapted to compensate, during the rotation of said twisting flyer, a centrifugal force at said first carriage and at said second carriage.
