Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device adapted to move and slide along load suspension cables. More in detail, such type of devices are commonly used for moving along suspension cables one or more people and/ or loads which are coupled to the device to allow the overhead displacement.
  • cable it is intended single cable or multiple cables, twisted as well, made of metal material, or natural material as well, plastic and the like.
  • the sliding on cables is necessary for example to give aid to the occupants of ski facilities such as cableways, chair lifts, cable cars, and the like, in case of facility stop due to a failure or to adverse weather conditions.
  • one or more rescuers reach an upper descent point (disposed upstream along the cable) with respect to the cable cars or the seats where are the passengers to be aided, and the device is constrained to the cable, generally by means of a karabiner.
  • the rescuer couples himself to the device karabiner by means of a harness, thus staying hanging, and slides along the cable by the device driving the movement by means of a safety rope which is secured to a fixed point, for example a cableway pylon.
  • such devices can be used to transport loads, for example some material or tools in a place where overhead works along the suspension cable are intended to be done.
  • the devices presently used commonly comprise an element connecting to the user or to the load to be moved along the cable, for example a hook shaped coupler or a karabiner, and one or more sliding means, generally one or more rested pulleys contacting the cable and which allow the rolling slide thereupon.
  • the device described in US6810818 in the name of Petzl, comprises a main body formed by an U-shaped plate to which two pulleys, which are adapted to slide while rolling along the cable, are rotatably constrained to.
  • a karabiner openable by means of a couple of openings realized on two opposite flanges of the U-shaped plate, can be constrained.
  • the karabiner allows to constrain the user to the device, by means of a belt constrained in its turn to a user harness or belt, who thus becomes hanging from the cable by means of the device. Further, the karabiner allows to constrain the device to the cable, such that an accidental and undesired disengagement between the device and the cable during the use is avoided. In fact, the constraint point of the karabiner to the main plate of the device is higher than the contact point of the pulleys with the cable, so that the latter can be inserted inside the karabiner when the device is placed in an operative position on the cable and the pulleys are placed in contact therewith.
  • the karabiner is constrained to the device body so to result fixed with respect thereto.
  • the karabiner mounting is done by interposing, inside an opening of the device body, an element of plastic material which makes the karabiner integral with the main plate of the device.
  • the karabiner is prevented from rotating with respect to the device body adversely affecting its use efficiency.
  • the karabiner would tend to arrange along the vertical line due to the weight force of the load constrained thereto. Meanwhile, the pulleys constrained to the device body will tend, on the contrary, to "follow" the cable tilt.
  • the stiff constraint between the karabiner and the device body prevents the respective movement therebetween, determining the rising of undesired inner stresses inside the device which can cause breakings, or failures.
  • the device described in the document DE102007028119 comprises a main body provided with a through opening for constraining a karabiner by the interposition of a bushing.
  • a bushing made of plastic material is inserted and is blocked so as to result fixed with respect to the device body.
  • the karabiner is mounted in a through opening of the bushing made of plastic material.
  • the allowed rotation movement is very limited and does not allow an effective fitting to the cable tilt during the sliding thereon.
  • the bushing made of plastic material is fixed with respect to the device body adversely affecting its use efficiency.
  • the stiff constraint between the bushing made of plastic material and the device body prevents the relative movement therebetween, thereby also limiting the karabiner movement with respect to the device body, besides determining the rising of undesired inner stresses in the device which can cause breakings, or failures.
  • Object of the present invention is to solve the above briefly discussed problems and to provide a device for the sliding on cables that allows the fitting to the cable tilt by avoiding risks of karabiner and device breakings.
  • Further object of the present invention is to provide a device which is simple and easy to realize besides being one-hand maneuverable, highly resistant, safe and effective during the sliding on cables, in particular on tilted cables.
  • a device for the sliding on cables comprising a base body, at least one connecting element openable to couple the base body to a load and/or to at least one cable, and means for the sliding on the cable.
  • the sliding means are of rolling or wiping type, and preferably comprise at least one pulley rotatably constrained to the base body.
  • the device comprises at least one hub provided with at least one opening passing through it in which the connecting element is inserted, and the base body is rotatable with respect to the hub and with respect to the connecting element.
  • the through opening the hub is provided with, allows the insertion and the passing of the connecting element through it, such that at least part of the connecting element is enclosed by the hub.
  • the hub comprises a metal cylindrical body provided with a through opening along its longitudinal axis and the openable connecting element comprises a karabiner provided with a main body and at least one movable portion constrained to the main body.
  • a hub having a through opening inside thereof allows to easily insert and extract the connecting element to the device, and at the same time allows to rotatably constrain the device base body with respect to the karabiner.
  • the device base body is therefore rotatable with respect to the hub, and then with respect to the connecting element inserted inside it.
  • the device body rotation with respect to the hub in which the connecting element is inserted allows to increase the fitting to the cable tilt, besides making the device safer by avoiding the generation of stresses inside thereof. It has to be kept in mind that the device base body is rotatable with respect to the connecting element.
  • the device base body is rotatable with respect to the connecting element independently from the device base body rotation with respect to the hub.
  • the connecting element is fixed with respect to the hub, therefore the base body rotation with respect to these two elements is the same. More in detail, according to a possible embodiment, the connecting element is not rotatable with respect to the hub, therefore the base body rotation with respect to these two elements is the same.
  • the hub and the connecting element are made in one-piece.
  • the karabiner inserted inside the hub, would freely rotate with respect to the device body remaining in a substantially vertical direction, under the effect of the weight force of the load constrained thereto. Furthermore, the hub presence contributes to strengthen the device, in fact, the connecting element will not rotate directly contacting the device body but by the hub interposition.
  • the device base body comprises at least one seat for accommodating at least partially the hub so as to allow the rotation of the base body with respect to the hub and the connecting element, and vice versa.
  • the at least one seat of the base body for accommodating at least partially the hub can allow the independent rotation of the base body with respect to the hub and of the base body with respect to the connecting element.
  • the connecting element is fixed with respect to the hub, or it is made in one- piece with it, the base body rotation with respect to these two elements is the same.
  • the device body comprises at least one flange on which the seat is provided for rotatably accommodating at least partially the hub, and thus such that the at least one flange is rotatable with respect to the hub and with respect to the connecting element.
  • the device comprises two flanges integrally constrained one to another and provided with a pair of seats disposed in a facing position, formed by two openings passing through the side surfaces of the two flanges, which allow to accommodate at least partially the hub such that the two flanges are freely rotatable with respect to it.
  • the device comprises, as well, fastening means of the connecting element, and in particular of the hub to the karabiner.
  • the karabiner will be fastened to the hub and will therefore freely rotate, together with it, with respect to the device base body, in particular during the sliding on tilted cables.
  • the base body comprises one or more flanges
  • the sliding means and in particular one or more pulleys are rotatably constrained to the one or more device flanges.
  • the device base body comprises two constrained flanges spaced one from another
  • at least one pulley preferably two or more, are rotatably constrained to the two flanges on a rotation axis placed between the two flanges.
  • the sliding means of the device are arranged on the hub too, and preferably one additional pulley is installed on the hub so as to be rotatable with respect to the hub itself.
  • the presence of a pulley rotatably constrained to the hub allows to further stabilize the device during the sliding along the cable.
  • the device 1 for the sliding on cables 10 comprises a base body 2 to which sliding means 20, 21 and 22 on the cable 10 are constrained and at least one connecting element 3 openable for the coupling of the device base body to a load and/ or at least one cable 10.
  • the general term "cable” is used herein to describe cables having different individual characteristics, or constituted by several twisted cables and made of different materials.
  • the device according to the present invention is used for the sliding on overhead metal cables of cableways, chairlifts, rope-ways, and the like.
  • the present device can find other applications in different sectors in which there is the need to handle a load, and therefore one or more people, or stocks, tools and the like, along one or more sustaining cables.
  • the sliding means 20, 21 and 22 along the cable can be both of the rolling and wiping type.
  • the device 1 comprises rollingly sliding means, that is to say means which are in contact with the cable and, due to the rolling friction, allow the sliding thereon.
  • rollingly sliding means comprise one or more pulleys 20, 21, or similar means, rotatably constrained to the body 2 of the device.
  • the rotatable type constraint to the device allows the pulleys to roll on the cable and thus to allow the sliding of the device along it. Furthermore, the outer surface of the pulleys which is intended to contact the cable can be circumferentially U-shaped so as to fit to the cable surface by forming a recessed portion which improves the contact and the restraint of the cable.
  • the sliding means can be stiffly constrained to the device, or formed with it in one-piece, so as to form fixed elements able to wipe on the cable like sliding blocks.
  • the device 1 further comprises at least one hub 5 provided with at least one opening 6 passing through it, and wherein the connecting element 3 is inserted.
  • the base body 2 of the device is rotatable with respect to the hub 5 and with respect to the connecting element 3, and during the sliding, the connecting element 3, due to the weight force acting on it by virtue of the load constrained to it, maintains a substantially vertical direction.
  • the rotation of the hub 5 with respect to the base body 2 of the device allows the latter to fit to the cable tilt without the formation of undesired stresses. More in detail, the sliding means will follow the cable tilt as well as the device base body.
  • the connecting element 3 could rather maintain the vertical direction given by the weight force thanks to the free rotation of the hub 5, inside which the connecting element 3 is inserted, with respect to the base body 2. It has to be noted that the base body 2 is rotatable with respect to the connecting element 3 and, as it will be better described in the following, according to a possible embodiment the connecting element 3 is fastened to the hub 5, or it is realized in one-piece with it. Obviously, in this case, the rotation of the base body 2 with respect to the hub 5 and the connecting element 3 is the same.
  • the connecting element 3 allows to constrain the device to the overhead cable 10 thus avoiding its disengagement during the use, and at the same time it allows to constrain the user to the device.
  • the connecting element 3 is inserted in the hub 5, and in particular through the opening 6 passing through it, such that at least a part of the connecting element 3 becomes enclosed by the hub 5.
  • the hub 5 comprises a cylindrical body provided with a through opening 6 along its own longitudinal axis, therefore forming a cylindrical body provided with an axial recess.
  • FIG. 6 is a sectional view according to a plane passing through the axis of the cylindrical body of the hub 5, the through opening 6 which connects the two opposite base surfaces of the cylindrical body forms an inner recess which, in the illustrated embodiment, is not perfectly cylindrical but tapered towards the center portion of the cylindrical body.
  • the hub 5, as well as the through opening 6, can be realized according to shapes different with respect to the one herein described, providing that the passage of at least part of the connecting element through it is allowed.
  • the presence of a hub 5 inside which the connecting element is passed through allows to strengthen the device, besides ensuring the free rotation of the base body 2 of the device with respect to the hub 5 during the use.
  • the connecting element 3 is openable.
  • the connecting element is provided with a central seat 4 inside which the cable 10 slides during the use.

  • the portion 3b is manually movable between an opening position and a closing position for the insertion of said karabiner inside the hub and, also, for the passage of the cable 10 inside the seat 4.
  • connecting elements such as for example openable metal rings, elements provided with two separable half-parts, and the like.
  • the karabiner 3 shown in the accompanying figures further comprises a safety device adapted to prevent the undesired opening of the karabiner following the accidental displacement of the movable portion 3b. More in detail, in such type of karabiners, known in the art as “double lever” karabiners, there is a safety lever 3c which prevents the displacement of the movable portion 3b which can be carried out only also if the safety lever 3c is actuated concurrently.
  • the karabiner 3 shown in figures comprises a seat, or eyelet 3d, which allows the constraint, following the passage through it, of a belt or directly of the user's harness.
  • the load and/ or harness belt of the user can be mounted inside the seat 4 of the karabiner 3 by the opening of the movable portion 3b, for example analogously to what occurs for the insertion/ extraction of the cable 10 inside thereof.
  • the device comprises, as well, means for fastening the connecting element 2, and in particular the hub 5, to the karabiner.
  • such means comprise one or more grub screws (not shown) which are passed through proper corresponding seats 12 obtained on the side surface of the hub 5.
  • the fastening means are such to lock the karabiner with respect to the hub, more particularly, they prevent the rotation and/ or the translation of the karabiner 3 with respect to the hub 5.
  • the hub 5 is monolithic, but it could also be made of two or more longitudinal parts, for example rings, or transverses, for example half shells.
  • the fastening means can be used, both of removable type, such as for example pins, screws, etc., or not removable such as for example the use of welding, adhesives, etc.
  • said hub 5 can be monolithically integrated to the connecting element 3.

  • the dimensions of the seats 7 are such to allow the housing of at least part of the hub 5 and at the same time such to allow the rotation motion of the hub 5 with respect to the flanges 2a, 2b, and vice versa.
  • the flanges 2a, 2b have at least one additional portion 40 adapted to a better side containment of the rope 10.
  • the device according to the present invention comprises two side plates 23, 24 which are constrained at the ends of the hub 5. More in detail the plates are constrained at the base surfaces of the cylindrical body of the hub 5 and they are installed such to be outside of the flanges 2a and 2b.
  • the plates 23, 24 are constrained for example by threaded means, that is to say three screws which, passing through proper seats 25 of the plates, reach the surface of the hub 5 where they are constrained in as much corresponding seats 26.
