Abstract
A device for guiding a flexible elongated element such as a cable or the like, designed to guide the element during a drawing process, and comprising several rollers mounted pivoting about an axis and arranged such that they define a space for receiving the element and whereof the contour is substantially closed, the shafts of the rollers being borne by a support capable of opening into two parts whereof one is mounted articulated relative to the other; a first part is a bent flat iron such that it is formed by three abutted U-shaped brackets, two brackets being arranged facing each other and coupled each with the end of the wing of the other bracket whereof the web extends perpendicular to the parallel webs of the two brackets and the second part is a flat iron bent so as to form a bracket similar to the brackets of the first part but whereof the ends of the wings, not coupled to the web of the U-shaped bracket, are prolonged along two lugs extending outwards of the U parallel to the U web.
