Device for splicing reinforcement cages
A device 50A for splicing together end-to-end a first reinforcement cage and a second reinforcement cage. The first reinforcement cage comprising a suspension band 28 adjacent one of its ends. The device comprises: an engagement portion 60 fixedly mounted on the second cage and configured such that at least a detent portion 80 thereof is spaced from the second cage in a transverse direction T relative to the longitudinal axial direction A of the second cage so as to define a transverse suspension gap G between the detent portion and the portion of the second cage. The suspension gap is configured for receiving therein the suspension band as the first and second cages are brought together; and a gate member 50 pivotally mounted on the second cage adjacent its one end and selectively pivotally configurable in either an open configuration, in which the suspension band can be inserted into the suspension gap past the gate member, or a closed configuration in which the suspension band, once it has been located in the suspension gap, is prevented from being removed therefrom by the gate member.
