Definitions
- the present invention relates to an industrial load handling device.
- the loads are displaced by means of a load-holding device attached to the end of a lifting sling connected to a hoist such as a hoist winch, assuring lifting a load from a low position to a high position, and vice versa.
- These holding devices are generally constituted by a lifting shackle or lifting ring well known to those skilled in the art.
- Lifting rings or shackles constitute a lifting accessory associated with the lifting device and are intended to ensure the connection between the lifting sling connected to the hoist and the part to be handled.
- a hoist ring generally comprises a substantially U-shaped ring, closed by a base on which is positioned a threaded hole, receiving a screw on which is fixed the load to handle.
- This attachment consists of a screwing done directly on the upper face of the load. This screwing is typically done by hand by an operator, which screws the lifting ring on the load, then connects the free end of the sling to the U-shaped portion of said ring to cause the displacement of the load during the actuation of the hoist.
- This check is typically performed according to the manufacturer's recommendations for the necessary anchorage length as a function of the weight of the workpiece to be handled.
- the screwing and verifications being carried out manually may involve certain risks, such as in particular that of not having anchored enough length of screw in the load to handle, which can cause the lifting of said load of its lifting ring.
- An object of the present invention is to overcome these disadvantages by ensuring, by means of a simple manufacturing device, that the anchoring of the screw in the load to be handled is sufficient.

- the screw indicator elements coincide, the operator is assured that the load is correctly attached to the lifting ring, so that it can not tear under normal conditions of use of the lifting gear .
- the screw indicator elements do not match; the operator is then quickly informed by a simple visual check that the depth of anchoring of the screw is not sufficient and that, therefore, the load is not well maintained and may tear during his lifting and its displacement at altitude.
- the second screw indicator element encloses the elastic return means. Thanks to this feature of the invention, these elastic return means are protected from possible shocks during the lifting phase or displacement of the load.
- the second screw indicator element comprises at least one zone shaped to completely cover the first screw indicator element when said second screw indicator element is in abutment with the screw. charging and that the screwing between the handling device and said load is sufficient.
- This arrangement makes it possible to be ensured by a quick visual check that the lifting ring is indeed securely attached to the load.
- the handling device comprises gripping means forming a substantially U-shaped ring closed by a base, said base being provided with at least one tapped hole adapted to receive at at least one screw on the body of which the first screw indicator element is mounted.
- the first and second screw indicator elements are of different colors.
- This arrangement has the advantage of allowing the user through a quick visual check to know if the ring is properly fixed on the load to move. If the neck representing the first screw indicator element remains visible while the lifting ring has been mounted on the load to be moved, the user is immediately informed of the tightness of said ring on said load.

- the ring 3 is closed at its bottom by a base 4 having in a direction substantially perpendicular to its surface a threaded hole accommodating a screw 5 threaded over its entire length.
- the assembly constituted by the ring 3, the base 4 and the screw 5 is called set of screws in the following description.
- a first screw indicator element 6 is screwed onto the screw 5 and tightly tightened on the lower part of the base 4, constituting a nut of said screw 5.
- the set of screws and the first indicator element screwing are integral.
- the method of use according to the invention also comprises a second screw indicator element 7, assembled on the first screw indicator element 6 by connecting means described hereinafter.
- the body of the screw 5 is threaded only at its bottom for a length adapted so that the anchoring length of the screw in the load to be handled is sufficient to ensure good support between the device handling according to the invention and said load.
- the first screw indicator element is mounted on the screw and held tight on the lower part of the base by any holding means making it integral with the set of screws.
- Such maintenance can be achieved for example by glue, rivets, or any other means known to those skilled in the art.
- the first screw indicator element 6 comprises a tubular body 8 surmounted at its upper part by a collar 9.
- the tubular body 8 of the first screw indicator element 6 comprises on its inner face a tapping shaped to be screwed onto the screw 5 of the set of screws.
- the second screw indicator element 7 has the shape of a tubular sleeve 10 of length substantially equal to that of the tubular body 8.
- the second screw indicator element 7 is intended to be mounted on the first screw indicator element 6.
