Abstract

A carriage (2) sliding vertically on a fixed column (1) bears a driving assembly comprising a motor (3), a transmission (15, 16, 17), a shaft (18), and a rubber-covered pulley (4). A frame (10) supported by castors (11) rotates about the column. In operating position, the frame holds a working drum (5) resting on two parallel rollers (13) opposite the driving pulley. A full or empty drum is situated next to the working drum. A traverse mechanism (6, 7, 27) is borne by the column and by an auxiliary upright (8).
