Claim 13:
14. An apparatus for loading a cage welding machine comprising an insertion device, having a receiving element for receiving longitudinal wires of a cage to be produced using the cage welding machine, wherein the insertion device has, on the receiving element, a multiplicity of receiving positions for all the longitudinal wires of the cage, wherein the receiving positions are present in a radial direction so as to be spaced apart from an axis of rotation D of the insertion device, and a buffer store arranged on a receiving element of the insertion device in such a way that the buffer store is present on the receiving element together with further elements of the receiving element, so as to be rotatable about the axis of rotation D of the insertion device, wherein the insertion device is configured to simultaneously feed at least two longitudinal wires arranged on the insertion device to the cage welding machine in an insertion operation, wherein the operation of inserting the longitudinal wires onto the cage welding machine is effected by a movement of the insertion device in an axial direction of the axis of rotation D of the insertion device, wherein the receiving element has a support element and the receiving element is rotatably mounted on the support element.
