Definitions

  • This invention is directed to rising and lowering objects, in particular objects, such as theater scenic elements, suspended from fly sets, by improved fail-safe motorized means.
  • Each set usually consists of a pipe batten hung parallel to the proscenium opening from cables approximately 2.5 to 3.5 meters apart.
  • Each cable passes from the pipe batten over loft blocks, mounted on the gridiron or to the underside of the roof beams. From the loft blocks the cables lead over a common headblock, mounted at the side of the stage, usually approximately level with the loft blocks, and down to a counterweight arbor.
  • the counterweight arbor is typically a steel frame, supporting lead, and steel or cast iron weights. It is guided by tracks or cables, which are mounted on the stage sidewall. The weight of the counterweight arbor is balanced to be approximately equal to the weight of the pipe batten and the set hung from the pipe batten.
  • the fly set is lifted or lowered by an operating rope, tied on top of the counterweight arbor, passing up over and around the head block, down around a tension sheave and up again through a friction lock to the bottom of the counterweight arbor.
  • the friction lock holds the nearly balanced pipe batten and the counterweight arbor in position.
  • the pipe battens are usually spaced at 150 to 200 mm on centers.
  • the number of sets varies. 20-30 may be used in smaller theaters while more than 100 in larger theaters.
  • the system has several disadvantages. Loading and unloading counterweights for balancing the loads is time-consuming and dangerous. There have been many accidents when counterweights were dropped from 18 to 25 meters above the stage. Also, in case of excessive unbalance the fly set may run away when the rope lock is opened.
  • Motorized fly sets are generally spaced wider apart than the manual sets. 200 mm center-to-center spacing has become an accepted standard in the US. The standardized winches presently available are wider than 200 mm and therefore cannot be mounted side by side in a single row. Double row or staggered winch mounting is required for these winches for spacing the fly sets at 200 mm centers.
  • Some of the standardized fly set winches are zero fleet angle type, meaning that the angle of the cables between the cable drum and the loft block sheaves, mounted on the winch base, does not change when the cables wind or unwind on the drum.
  • This feature is achieved by translating the drum in its longitudinal direction with respect to the sheaves, in synchronization with the back and forth travels of the cables in the drum cable grooves.
  • the drum can be stationary and the loft block sheaves can be translated in similar manner with respect to the drum. This translation can be accomplished by a screw, with the thread pitch identical or in fixed ratio with the spacing of the cable grooves in the drum.
  • the screw can be non-rotatably mounted to the winch base. It would engage a rotating nut, part of the winch.
  • the screw can be rotatably mounted on the winch engaging a fixed nut mounted on the winch base.
  • the grooves in the winch drum can be used for translating the drum in its longitudinal direction through a device such as a rotating cam or wheel mounted on the winch base and engaging the drum grooves. In this case the drum grooves act as screw thread.
  • US2003/0030045 discloses a lift assembly having a drum rotatably mounted to a frame and linearly translatable with respect to the frame.
  • a plurality of head blocks are connected to the frame along a helical mounting path, wherein linear translation of the drum during takeoff or take-up maintains a predetermined fleet angle between a take off point from the drum and the head block. This arrangement cannot achieve required winch mounting spacing for side by side installation as required for theaters.
  • US6520485 discloses a motorized fly system winch, drum and carriage combination for raising and lowering, for example, theatre scenery by means of cables and which incorporates functions for emergency braking, for moving the drum in synchronization with relation to the carriage containing cable-guiding means and for driving of a limit switch if desired.
  • the system has a framed carriage as a base structure separate from a protective winch enclosure. This may be considered the closest relevant art.
  • KR 2009 0115645 A discloses another motorized winch for raising and lowering objects by means of cables with respect to a facility.
  • An object of the present invention is an improved winch that combines the functions of the winch base structure and a protective winch enclosure into a single component tubular support enclosure.
  • Another object of the present invention is an improved zero fleet angle winch where the tubular support enclosure includes means for mounting the winch unit inside the tubular support enclosure such that it or its drum can be moved back and forth parallel to its longitudinal axis inside the tubular support enclosure.
  • a further object of the present invention is an improved zero fleet angle winch configured in such manner that the motor, gear reducer and an overspeed brake, part of the winch unit, all mounted inside the tubular support enclosure, are accessible for maintenance or replacement without removing the winch unit from its tubular support enclosure or from its mounted location in the facility.
  • Yet another object of the invention is an improved zero fleet angle winch that is compact, requires reduced maintenance, and is sufficiently versatile that it can be easily adapted for mounting along the theater sidewalls or to the gridiron or to the overhead structure and where the winches can be mounted at approximately 200 mm on centers with respect to each other.
  • a principal feature of this invention is a winch construction of which the winch unit is mounted inside a tubular support enclosure that supports and guides the winch unit while providing access to movable components of the winch unit for maintenance and repair.
  • a sheave assembly and a sensor unit are mounted on the bottom side of the tubular support enclosure.
  • the control sensor contains up and down position and overtravel limit switches which can be selectively adjusted for each particular installation and also for maintenance. It also may contain an absolute encoder, for example, a rotary or shaft encoder, for setting the fly set variable position travel stops and speed control.
  • a feature of the invention is that the winch construction is confined within a right quadrangular volume defined by the enclosure sides and straight prolonged extensions of the sides with the result that plural winches can be mounted side-by-side without fear of winch component interference.
  • a further feature is that mounting of the sheave assembly to and outside of the enclosure allows construction of a structurally sound enclosure that will protect the winch components while allowing full access to maintainable winch parts, including removal and replacement of the cables without removing the winch unit from its tubular enclosure.
  • a new feature of the invention described in this application is that the use of rollers, mounted to the inside of the tubular support enclosure engaging the motor and brake end supports of the movable winch unit, reduce friction and permit the use of steel for these end supports for reduced wear and improved operational life.
  • a “fly set” typically is the combination of a batten, loft blocks (sheaves) and one or more support lines, for example, a wire cable or rope, attached to the batten and engaging a loft block.
  • the number of loft blocks equals the number of support lines.
  • a “batten” is the structural member typically supporting a scenic element.
  • the batten is a steel or aluminum pipe, though other strip-type structural members can be substituted.
  • the supporting batten When the scenery to be raised and lowered is, for example, a screen or backdrop extending laterally across the stage, the supporting batten typically has a length exceeding the width of the proscenium, i.e., the stage opening visible to the audience, and the batten would typically use 4-7 support lines spaced evenly across its top.
  • the terms “laterally” and “width” refer to the horizontal dimension or direction of the proscenium and the term “vertically” refers to the vertical dimension or direction of the proscenium.
  • stage ceiling is the ceiling of the stage tower that is above and behind the open curtain and not visible to the audience.
  • gridiron refers to a rigid structural member typically composed of steel beams and channels that form an open grid structure extending parallel to and typically 1.8 to 2.2 meters below the stage ceiling out of view of the audience and which is capable of supporting various objects. "Wells" in the gridiron are larger openings through which support cables can be extended to battens or other structures beneath.
  • the invention is directed to an improved winch for rising and lowering objects, such as theatre scenery, consisting of a winch unit mounted inside and supported by a tubular support enclosure.
  • the winch unit incorporates functions for lifting, lowering and supporting the objects, for emergency braking, for translating the drum in its longitudinal direction in synchronization with winding and unwinding the cables from the drum so that the orientation of the cables is maintained in relation to the tubular support enclosure.
  • the winch unit may also be used for driving the limit switches and an encoder for sensing and controlling object position.
  • the tubular support enclosure supports the winch unit and the cable guiding sheaves. It may also be used for mounting limit switches, encoder, and electrical controls.
  • tubular support enclosure an integral tubular unit comprising side, bottom and top walls enclosing preferably at least 60% of the winch unit. The remaining up to 40% may include openings, which may be covered by removable panels for accessing the winch unit for maintenance and repair.
  • FIG 1 and FIGs 2, 3 One form of the improved winch according to the invention is shown in FIG 1 and FIGs 2, 3 .
  • the important feature of this invention is that the winch unit 10 is mounted inside a tubular support enclosure 21, fixed to the facility, which tubular support enclosure 21 supports and guides the winch unit 10 while providing access to movable components of the winch unit for maintenance and repair.
  • a sheave assembly 30 and a sensor unit 40 are mounted on the bottom side of the tubular support enclosure 21.
  • winch unit 10 shown on FIG 1 includes a drum assembly 11, rotatably supported and directly driven at one end through a motorized gear reducer 13 mounted on a motor end member 122, part of a frame 12, all translatable along the longitudinal axis of drum assembly 11 inside the tubular support enclosure.
  • the opposite end of cable drum assembly 11 is supported from a bearing 14 through an elongated hub 113, part of, or bolted to the cable drum grooved portion 111 brake end.
  • the bearing 14 can be mounted into a frame 12 brake end member 123.
  • the elongated hub 113 includes means for connecting it to an overspeed brake 15, which would engage in case of overspeed drum rotation, if caused by the motorized gear reducer 13 or a motor brake 131 failure. Under normal conditions, the load on the winch unit 10 is held by the motor or the motor brake 131, which are parts of the motorized gear reducer 13.
  • the winch unit 10 is mounted into the tubular support enclosure 21 so that it can be moved back and forth parallel to the longitudinal axis of the drum assembly 11, relative to the tubular support enclosure 21, and, as shown on FIG 2 and FIG 3 , supported inside the tubular support enclosure 21 by support and guide recessed sections such as guide grooves 211 through sliding bearings 127 fastened to the motor end support 124 and to the brake end support 125 of the frame 12.
  • Single or plural cables 17 pass from the drum grooved portion 111 over their respective vertically and/or horizontally offset cable-guiding sheaves 313, over respective loft blocks 56 (as shown on FIGs 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 ) to a pipe batten 57 used for supporting the stage sets.
  • the cables 17 can be further directed over or below a guide block 32 fastened to the tubular support enclosure 21as shown on FIG 1 .
  • the tubular support enclosure 21 is mounted to the facility structure (not shown) by means of brackets 22.
  • the preferred tubular enclosure is rectangular with side walls 217 and 218 and bottom wall 216A below, which supports the sheave assembly. Looking again at FIG 1 , when the rotating drum assembly 11 winds or unwinds the cables 17, the cables travel back and forth in the drum grooved portion 111 grooves.
  • the winch unit 10 has to travel laterally (parallel to the drums axis) in synchronization with and in the same direction as the cable back and forth travel in the drum grooved portion 111 grooves.
  • a "straight cable run” is meant that the angular orientation between the drum grooved portion 111 and the cable guiding sheaves 313 in maintained in a vertical orientation when the improved winch system is mounted horizontally, and when the improved winch system is mounted vertically, the cables are maintained in a horizontal orientation. If the winch system is mounted at an angle, then the cable angular orientation is maintained to maintain a straight cable run.
  • the drum assembly 11 is used for horizontally moving the winch unit 10 inside the tubular support enclosure 21 in relation to the fixed cable guiding sheaves 313.
  • the movement is fixed in synchronization with the cable 17 back and forth travel in the drum grooved portion 111 grooves.
  • This is accomplished, in accordance with a preferred embodiment, by a power transmission screw 25 (ACME, ball or roller type), connected non-rotatably through a connector 24 to screw 25 support 23, inside the tubular support enclosure 21.
  • ACME power transmission screw 25
  • a power transmission nut 114 (ACME, ball or roller type) is mounted to the drum assembly 11 brake end hub 113, which hub is hollow so that the power transmission screw 25 can pass, via the hollow hub, inside the drum assembly 11, which is also hollow, where the screw 25 is protected when the pipe batten hung from winch unit 10 is in its up, or storage, position.
  • the view of FIG 1 with the power transmission screw 25 extending outside the drum assembly 11 occurs when the pipe batten is at its down position. Storing the power transmission screw 25 inside the drum assembly 11 is possible because the drum is not mounted on a separate shaft, but the drum itself forms its own shaft.
  • the power transmission nut 114 being secured to the hub 113, rotates together with the drum assembly 11 and also with respect to screw 25.
  • the pitch of the screw 25 thread is equal to the pitch of the drum grooved portion 111 cable grooves. Therefore, the winch unit 10 is moved in synchronization with the back and forth travels of the cables 17 in the drum grooved portion 111 grooves. Straight cable runs/paths are maintained between the winch unit 10 and the cable guiding sheaves 313.
  • FIGs Another option (not shown on FIGs) is to mount the power transmission screw 25 rigidly to the end of the drum assembly 11 and to mount the power transmission nut 114 rigidly to the screw support 23. Now the power transmission screw 25 would rotate together with drum assembly 11, engage the fixed power transmission nut 114 and translate the drum assembly 11 together with the frame 12 and all the components mounted to the frame 12 relative to the tubular enclosure 21 in synchronization with the back and forth travel of cables 17 in drum assembly 11 grooved portion 111 grooves.
  • the drum assembly 11 can be constructed of a cylindrical tubular member having the grooves 111 machined in its outer surface, with hubs 112 and 113 at each end.
  • the hubs can be bolted or welded to the grooved drum grooved portion 111.
  • Suitable materials for the cable drum grooved portion 111 are aluminum and steel. Other materials or their combinations can be used.
  • the drum grooved portion 111 can be made of one un-grooved tubular member with short pre-grooved cylindrical portions installed around and supported by the un-grooved tubular member.
  • the drum grooved portion 111 can be made of short cylindrical grooved portions, held together by post-tensioned ties or by similar means.
  • the drum assembly 11 is mounted into the drum support frame 12, which comprises of one rigid horizontal member 121, motor end vertical member 122, brake end vertical member 123, motor end support 124 and brake end support 125.
  • the motor end vertical member 122 can be made of steel or aluminum plates or castings, incorporating all mounting interfaces for the motorized gear reducer 13.
  • the brake end vertical member 123 can be made of steel or aluminum plates or castings, incorporating all mounting interfaces for the anti-friction bearing 14, overspeed brake 15 and, as shown on FIG 2 , shaft 126.
  • the horizontal member 121 can be made of steel or aluminum tubing.
  • a protective device 18 shown on FIG 2 and FIG 3 is a roller or a bar assembly.
  • the protective device 18A is configured as a curved cover.
  • Protective devices can be mounted on the frame 12 for preventing and/or sensing the cables 17 from jumping the drum grooved portion 111 grooves.
  • the protective device 18 or 18A can have electricity conductive surfaces (not shown) normally insulated from the frame 12. Should a cable 17 develop slack or cross the drum grooved portion 111 groove, the cable will touch these conductive surfaces and ground these surfaces to the frame 12. A ground fault detector, part of electrical controls, would then stop the winch 10 operation.
  • Another type of protective device can be a wire (not shown), tensioned close to the outside diameter of the drum or rollers supported by a wire or a rod (not shown) mounted close to the outside diameter of the cables 17 wound on drum grooved portion 111 between the frame 12 end members 122 at motor end and 123 at the brake end.
  • This wire can also be insulated from the frame 12 and act as a ground fault detector as described above.
  • the motor end support 124 is a rigid part of frame 12, connected to the top member 121 and motor end member 122.
  • Bearings 127 are mounted on the motor end support 124 surfaces interfacing with the tubular support enclosure 21 guide surfaces 212.
  • the brake end support 125 is mounted to the frame 12 through shaft 126. This permits the brake end support 125 to pivot about the longitudinal axis of shaft 126 and frame 12 so as compensate for possible tubular support enclosure 21 guide surfaces 212 and support and guide groove 211 irregularities.
  • Bearings 127 are mounted on the brake end support 125 interfacing with the support and guide surfaces 212 of the tubular support enclosure 21.
  • the overspeed brake 15 can be centrifugal type used in other fly system winches. It can be also solenoid-applied type or spring applied electrically released brake similar to what is used in the industry for motors and other rotating devices.
  • FIG 1 and FIG 2 another option for the frame (not shown) is to eliminate the top axial-extending beam-like member 121.
  • the tie between the vertical motor end member 122 and brake end member 123 would then be formed by the drum assembly 11.
  • the motor end vertical member 122 and the motor end support 124 have to be rigid to resist all the drive torques from the motorized gear reducer 13 and in addition the frictional forces between the bearings 127 and the tubular support enclosure 21 support and guide surfaces 212.
  • the brake end vertical member 125 and the brake end support 123 have to be rigid, similar to the motor end support, in order to resist the braking torque from the overspeed brake 15 and in addition, the frictional forces between the bearings 127 and the tubular support enclosure 21 support and guide surfaces 212.
  • the bearings 127 are used as sliding bearings between the winch unit 10 and tubular support enclosure 21. These bearings can be made of PTFE or PTFE compounds. The bearings 127 can be glued or mechanically fastened to the motor end support 124 and to the brake end support 125. As an alternate (not shown here) anti-friction ball or roller bearings or cam followers can be used instead of the sliding bearings.
  • a feature of this invention is combining the winch unit 10 supports, its guides and its protective enclosure into a tubular support enclosure 21 which also has connection means 213 (mounting bracket recessed sections such as grooves) for adjustably positioning the mounting brackets 22 with complementary-shaped T-shaped extensions to the tubular support enclosure 21 as illustrated on FIG 1 , FIG 2 and FIG 3 .
  • the tubular support enclosure 21, together with mounting brackets 22 forms the winch support 20, ready for installation to a facility.
  • These grooves 213 by which the tubular enclosure is supported allow slidable adjustment of the bracket 22 spacing to suit the spacing of the facility beams to which the brackets will be fixed. Once the properly spaced brackets are secured to the facility, locking screws can be tightened to fix the tubular enclosure to the brackets.
  • This invention as shown in FIG 6 permits installation of the winches very close to each other (200 mm on centers), which is a standard spacing of the theater fly sets, without danger of interference between their adjacent moving parts and, as later described, it also provides access to all important winch unit 10 moving parts, including to the sensors for positioning and speed control, which may require service or replacement. It further permits removal and replacement of cables 17 without the need for removal of winch 10 from its mounts in the facility.
  • This non-interfering close spacing is achieved by confining all winch components within a right quadrangular volume 219 defined by the enclosure side walls left 217, right 218 and straight prolonged extensions of the sides, illustrated by the dashed line extensions 220 ( FIG 3 ). Note that no winch components lie outside that volume 219, and thus when the enclosures are mounted side-by-side ( FIG 6 ), no interference during operation will occur.
  • drum diameters required by standards and codes which, together with 6.3 mm cable wrapped around it, would be approximately 170 mm.
  • the second problem is that the standardized motor frame and gear reducer sizes which, for lifting about 1,200 kg, would be approximately 185 mm wide.
  • This invention makes it possible to mount all these winch elements inside a tubular support enclosure 21 that will resist vertical loads, longitudinal axial forces and torsion forces, with the outside dimension between the lines 220 on FIG 3 not exceeding 200 mm.
  • the tubular support enclosure 21 has to support vertical loads, as a beam applied on it through the brake end support 125 and the motor end support 124. It also has to support the longitudinal axial forces, applied by the cables 17 and by the power transmission screw 25. In addition, the tubular support enclosure 21 has to support torsion forces applied through the motor end support 124 to the support and guide grooves 211 as shown on FIG 2 and FIG 3 . I have found that a thin walled tube is very efficient for supporting the torsion loads.
  • This feature permits to use thin side walls for the tubular support enclosure 21, which in turn, provides maximum width inside the tubular support enclosure 21 for mounting the winch unit 10.
  • the top and bottom walls and the portions around the support and guide 211 of the tubular support enclosure 21 can be made thicker to support the vertical forces in bending and to transfer the load concentrations from the motor end support 124 and brake end support 125 to the mounting brackets 22 without over stressing the thin side walls.
  • the side walls can be as thin as 3 to 6 mm, preferably about 5 mm. This will accommodate the width of codes and standards compliant drum assembly 11 and motorized gear reducer 13, with adequate clearances.
  • the height can be increased to accommodate thicker top walls 216 and thicker bottom walls 216A if required for structural strength.
  • the resultant thin-side-walled, thick top-and-bottom walled tubular enclosure, even with the openings provided for access, will house the kind of winch unit described, provide a maximum overall enclosure width of 200 mm and will adequately resist the various stresses exerted during operation of the winch. Loads about 1200 kg can be lifted with a motorized gear reducer 13 that fits into the 200 mm wide tubular support enclosure 21.
  • Aluminum extrusions, with cross sectional profiles as shown as item 8 on FIG 2 and FIG 3 will provide sufficient strength for such an enclosure.
  • the tubular support enclosure 21 is a substantially rectangular aluminum extrusion configured to form the support and guide grooves 211 together with bottom, side and top support and guide surfaces 212 for mounting the winch unit 10 into the tubular support enclosure 21 so that it can be moved back and forth during operation parallel to the longitudinal axis of the drum assembly 11.
  • the grooves 213 for the mounting brackets 22, used for installation of winch 10 into the facility, can also be part of the tubular support enclosure 21. These grooves 213 can be inverted T shape as shown on FIG 2 or horizontal as shown on FIG 5 . While the preferred embodiment describes an extruded aluminum tubular support enclosure 21, the tubular support enclosure with the support and guide grooves 211 can also be constructed of independent components (not shown), made of aluminum or other materials, welded and/or bolted together.
  • FIGs 2 , 5 and 6 show access openings 214 cut on the bottom side of tubular support enclosure 21 for cables 17 passing from drum grooved portion 111 to the cable guiding sheaves 313. These openings can also be used for removal and installation of cables 17 to drum grooved portion 111.
  • a slot 215, shown on FIG 3 and FIG 11 can be also cut on the bottom side of the tubular support enclosure 21 for connecting the sensor assembly 40 to the movable frame 12 through a sensor connecting pin 161 ( FIG 1 and FIG 10 ) fastened to the bracket 16. Additional holes (not shown) may be provided for mounting the sheave assembly 30, optional guide block 32 ( FIG 1 ), the sensor assembly 40 and the screw support 23 to the tubular support enclosure 21.
  • the power transmission screw 25 is non-rotatably mounted to the screw support 23 through screw connector 24. The power transmission screw 25 engages the power transmission nut 114 part of the winch unit 10 drum assembly 11.
  • the tubular support enclosure 21 can be installed to the facility structure (not shown) through mounting brackets 22 and 22A.
  • the brackets 22 engage the recessed sections, preferably inverted T-shape grooves 213 in tubular support enclosure 21, and are inserted into these grooves.
  • Brackets 22 can be bolted to one end of the tubular support enclosure 21 in order to support the horizontal loads applied by the cables 17. Bolting would also eliminate the torsional movement of the tubular support enclosure 21 that may be caused by the torsion applied to the tubular support enclosure 21 by the motorized gear reducer 13 if excessive tolerance gaps exist between the brackets 22 and the grooves 213.
  • the second pair of mounting brackets 22 can be but does not have to be bolted to the tubular support enclosure 21. Without bolting the second pair of brackets 22 engage the grooves 213 and support the vertical loads. Their position can be easily adjusted in the tubular support enclosure 21 by sliding them in the grooves 213 in the longitudinal direction so as to compensate for the interfacing facility structure tolerances.
  • the other type mounting bracket 22A made of aluminum extrusion, is shown on FIG 4 and FIG 5 .
  • This bracket 22A engages the horizontal grooves at the sides and near the top of the tubular support enclosure 21A.
  • Other than the geometry, its functionality is identical to the bracket described for FIG 1 , and FIG 2 .
  • FIG 1 , FIG 2 , FIG3 and FIG 6 One configuration of the sheave assembly 30 is shown on FIG 1 , FIG 2 , FIG3 and FIG 6 .
  • the cable guiding sheaves 313 are mounted into a common enclosing housing 31 in vertically ascending fashion so as to provide vertical clearance between cables 17 leaving the cable guiding sheaves 313.
  • the assembly 30 comprises outer side plate 311, inner side plate 312, sheaves 313, sheave shafts 314 and cable guards 315.
  • the outer side plate 311 and the inner side plate 312 are fastened to the bottom side of the tubular support enclosure 21.
  • the outer side plate 311 may be permanently fastened to the tubular support enclosure 21 by riveting, welding or bolting.
  • the inner side plate 312 is removable and when removed, as shown on FIG 6 , access is provided to the winch unit 10 drum grooved portion 111 through the access openings 214 in the bottom side of tubular support enclosure 21 for removal and replacement and connecting the cables 17 to drum grooved portion 111.
  • the cable guiding sheaves are mounted on shafts 314, which shafts can be permanently connected to the outer side plate 311 and connected through removable nuts 316 to the inner side plate 312.
  • This unique arrangement of the invention permits removal of the inner side plate 312 while the cable guiding sheaves 313 can remain in place supported by the outer side plate 311 only, as shown on FIG 6 .

  • the modified winch remains identical to the winch shown on FIGs 1 , 2 , 3 and 4 , except the sliding bearings 127 and their supports 124, 125 shown on these FIGs are replaced, as shown on FIGs 8 and 9 , with rollers 127A.
  • rollers 127A instead of mounting these rollers 127A on the winch unit 10, they are mounted to the inside of the tubular support enclosure 21.
  • the sliding bearings 127 are mounted on the frame 12 motor end support 124 and brake end support 125 and translate horizontally with the winch unit 10 in the longitudinal direction of the tubular support enclosure 21 when the drum assembly 11 rotates.
  • the rollers 127A do not translate in the longitudinal direction with the winch unit 10, but remain fixed to the tubular support enclosure 21.
  • at each end of the system four rollers 127A, two on top and two on bottom, support the winch unit 10 in the vertical direction as shown on FIG 9 , a total of eight rollers in this example.
  • rollers 127A engage the top and bottom surfaces of the motor end support 124A and brake end support 125A, which supports are part of the winch unit 10 and translate together with the winch unit 10 in the longitudinal direction of the tubular support enclosure 21 when the drum assembly 11 rotates. More rollers 127A can be used if required for supporting very heavy loads.
  • Each roller 127A may be an assembly of an anti friction or sleeve bearing 127B, rotatably mounted on a shaft or stud 127C.
  • the shafts 127C can be screwed into threaded holes in the enlarged ribs 221 and 221A, part of the tubular support enclosure 21, as shown, or they can be secured to the tubular support enclosure 21 by riveting, shrink fit or by other means.
  • Each such roller assembly is commonly known as cam follower or track roller and are standard parts made by several manufacturers. Examples would be McGill CFH 1-1/8 SB, RBC Bearings RBC 1-1/8. There are many others available commercially.
  • FIG 9 is a cross section taken, for example, at line 9A-9A and 9B-9B of FIG 8 . It shows a cross sectional profile of the tubular support enclosure 21 with longitudinal thickened portions or ribs 221 and 221A which are also shown on FIG 8 . These ribs 221 and 221A provide the required metal thickness for mounting the rollers 127A into the tubular support enclosure 21.

  • the ribs 221 and 221A would support the winch unit 10 in case of a roller 127A failure.
  • Another purpose of the ribs 221 and 221A is to provide support surfaces 212 for sliding the winch unit 10 motor or brake end out of the tubular support enclosure 21 in a manner shown on FIGs 1A and 1B for maintenance.
  • the sliding bearings 127 (also known as sliders), shown here and also in the FIG 1 embodiment, can be mounted on the outside edges of the motor end support 124A and brake end support 125A, shown on FIG 9 . All sliding bearings 127 translate together with the winch unit 10 and support the winch unit 10 in transverse direction, perpendicular to the tubular support enclosure 21, in a manner identical to the winch unit shown on FIGs 1 and 2, 3 .
  • the rollers 127A can be replaced with flanged rollers (not shown) or horizontal rollers (not shown) for supporting the winch unit 10 from the tubular support enclosure 21 in its transverse direction. In this case the sliding bearings 127 can be eliminated.
  • the advantage of the improved winch configuration shown on FIGs 8 and 9 is that the rollers 127A reduce considerably the friction between the tubular support enclosure 21 and the winch unit 10 as compared to the sliding bearings 127 shown on FIGs 1 and 2, 3 .
  • the rollers 127A apply high force concentrations on the surfaces of the motor and brake end supports 124A and 125A. If the latter were of aluminum they would not have good-enough surface strength for the rollers 127A to roll on without possibly causing excessive wear under concentrated heavy loads.
  • the motor end support 124A and the brake end support 125A can be made of steel.
  • These supports can be welded to the frame 12 by welds 128 as shown on FIG 9 if the frame 12 or its horizontal member 121 is made of steel. If the frame 12 or its horizontal member is made of aluminum or from other materials , bolted, riveted or other type connection (not shown) should be used.
  • the aluminum extrusion can still be used for the tubular support enclosure 21 and has adequate strength for mounting the rollers 127A to the inside of the tubular support enclosure 21.
  • the rollers 127A on the top surfaces of the motor and brake end supports 124A and 125A are important because the tubular support enclosure 21 is subjected to twisting forces by the torque applied by the motorized gear reducer 13, shown on FIG 8 , when loads are hung from the drum assembly 11 by cables 17.
  • the rollers on top assist in resisting such forces. Since, however these forces are lower than the forces on the bottom rollers, replacing the top rollers with sliding bearings (not shown) would not substantially increase the friction and can be beneficial.
  • the supports 124A and 125A translate together with the winch unit 10 in the longitudinal direction of the tubular support enclosure 21 when the drum assembly 11 rotates during lifting or lowering the loads (not shown) on cables 17. Therefore the supports 124A and 125A have to be slightly longer than the winch unit 10 maximum longitudinal translation 116 in order for the rollers 127A to remain engaged with the supports 124A and 125A.

  • the hole 424 is slotted, perpendicular to the actuator slide 423 travel in the slot 215.
  • the limit switches 419 are mounted near the ends of the limit switch actuator slide 423 travel to stop the winch at the up and down terminal positions and at the up and down over-travel positions when the limit switch actuator slide 423 strikes the limit switch 419 actuator arm.
  • the limit switches 419 are mounted on sliding bases 425, which have slotted holes 426 for their position adjustment. For assisting precise limit switch 419 position adjustment, additional means, such as precision screw adjustment (not shown) can be used. For major changes of up and down stopping positions, the limit switches 419 together with their slidable bases 425 can be mounted into different holes 427 at the bottom of the tubular support enclosure 21.
  • a pre-assembled limit switch unit can be used (not shown).
  • Such unit can consist of parallel channel supports (not shown) for the limit switches 419.
  • the limit switches 419 would be slidably mounted on these channel supports, each precisely positioned and held in place by a threaded rod (not shown), so that its position can be adjusted.
  • the parallel channels would be also used for supporting and guiding the actuator slide 423 instead of the slot 215 shown on FIG 11 .

  • the encoder can be mounted on the motor.
  • control sensors could also be mounted inside the tubular support enclosure 21on the brake end member 123 in the space above the power transmission screw 25. In this case, they would be driven by the rotation of hub 113 through a roller chain (not shown) and a roller chain sprocket (not shown) mounted on the sensors. Since the drum assembly 11 rotates approximately through 40 turns for full travel in a typical installation, an additional gear reducer (not shown) would be required for reducing the limit switch cams rotation to one turn.
  • control sensor assembly 40 is always accessible for maintenance and adjustments. This is one major advantage of the configuration and mounting location of the control limit switch assembly 40.
  • FIG 12 shows one installation in the facility where the improved winch 10 is installed on the stage sidewall 54 in vertical position.
  • the cables 17 pass from the winch over the head block 55, over the loft blocks 56 and down to the pipe batten 57.
  • This option of installation is particularly beneficial in existing theaters where the manually operated fly sets are replaced with motorized winches which, in this case, can be mounted on the wall that is used for the manual fly set counterweights and counterweight guides.
  • the existing head blocks 55 and loft blocks 56 will remain usable.
  • winches 10 can be mounted adjacent to each other, as shown on FIG 6 spaced at 200 mm centers, which is the generally accepted spacing for the motorized fly sets.
  • the existing cables 17 can also be reused, disconnected from the counterweights (not shown) and re-connected to the improved winch 10 cable drum assembly 11.
  • FIG 13 shows another type of installation of the improved winches 10 into a facility.
  • the improved winches 10 are installed at the gridiron 52 level at one or both (not shown) sides of the stage.
  • the cables 17 pass from the improved winch 10 directly over the loft blocks 56 (mounted on the grid wells 53) down to the pipe batten 57. Note that this type installation in the new theaters eliminates the need for head blocks 55 shown on FIG 12 . It has also the advantages described under FIG 12 for refurbishing the existing theaters.
  • FIG 14 shows a type of installation where the winches 10 are mounted on the gridiron at one or both sides (not shown) of the stage and the loft blocks 56 are mounted to the underside of the roof or ceiling beams 51, which are located above the gridiron wells 53.

  • One cable 17 can be dropped directly from the improved winch 10 to the pipe batten 57 while the other cables 17 pass over the loft blocks 56 installed and connected to the stage house overhead beams 51.
  • This type of installation is particularly useful for many small theaters, which do not have gridirons. It can be also used in the theaters with gridiron in order to keep the gridiron clear from horizontal cable 17 runs shown on FIG 13 .
  • the improved winches 10 over the stage area as shown on FIG 15 they can be mounted at the stage left or right areas and all cables 17 would then pass over the loft blocks 56 to the pipe batten 57.
  • two cables 17 can be dropped directly from the improved winch 10 to the pipe batten 57.
  • the tubular support enclosure as a single structural member that performs a multitude of functions. It supports the winch unit mounted inside the tubular support enclosure, protects its movable parts, provides access for maintenance to the major movable parts, supports the cable guiding sheaves, and interfaces with the mounting brackets for installation of the improved winch to the facility structure.
  • An advantage is that the tubular support enclosure can be produced as a one piece aluminum extrusion with all winch support ribs, guiding surfaces mounting bracket interfaces and other interface items formed as part of the extrusion. This minimizes the fabrication and assembly, requirements and reduces the cost. It can also be made as an assembly of a extruded top portion and a U-shaped bent channel lower portion, if economically beneficial.
  • the improved winches in this invention can be installed in a facility close to each other because the tubular support enclosure protects the moving parts of the adjacent winches from interfering with each other and all moving parts are confined within the volume previously defined.
  • the desired 200 mm fly set spacing can be achieved with the improved winches installed in a single row, side by side, which is not possible with the currently available winches.
  • This feature is especially beneficial for rehabilitation of the existing theaters, which use manually operated counterweight fly sets, where the improved winches can be installed to the wall that is used for guiding the counterweights. The improved winches would then be accessible for maintenance from the existing platforms used for loading the counterweights or from the stage floor.
  • the versatile improved winch can be installed in horizontal position on the gridiron level or above. It can be hung from the overhead beams above the gridiron or in the theaters which do not have gridirons.
  • the improved winch can also be mounted in tilted positions where required. It can be mounted at either side of the stage or over the performing area. The protection provided to the critical moving components by the structurally sound tubular support enclosure simplifies the handling of the improved winch during its installation.
  • Yet another advantage of the invention is that easy access is provided for removal and replacement of the fly set cables through the openings in the mounted tubular support enclosure, which together with all the cable guiding sheaves are accessible when the inner side plate of the sheave housing is removed.
  • This feature is also beneficial for rehabilitation of the existing theaters, which use manually operated counterweight fly sets.
  • the existing loft blocks, head blocks, cables and pipe battens can be reused by simply disconnecting the cables from the counterweights and reconnecting them to the improved winches after installation of the winches.
  • the improved winch also improves personnel safety, because contrary to the currently available winches, with covers over their moving parts, which may be removed and left open, all the major moving parts of the improved winches are inside the tubular support enclosure, not accessible to the personnel during winch operation.
  • overspeed brake to the opposite end of the drum from its drive end, so that in case of motor, motor brake, or the gear reducer of the drive shaft key failure, the overspeed brake would still stop the drum and support the objects hung from the winch.
  • the tubular support enclosure would also contain the parts which may break off the winch unit in case of a catastrophic failure of the drive train and prevent them from falling.
  • the invention is not limited to raising and lowering scenic elements in the theater, but can also be used in any facility with a need for raising and lowering any object, such as, for example, objects in a theme park.
  • the term "facility" has been used above to designate a building made up of the usual fixed structural members, such as beams, etc., and the tubular enclosure housing and supporting the winch unit typically is bolted at least at one end to a fixed structural member of the facility.
  • the tubular enclosure housing and supporting the winch unit can be attached to a movable member in turn movably mounted to the facility.
  • An example would be to mount the tubular enclosure housing and supporting the winch to a carriage riding on rails fixed to the facility to allow the load to be moved with the carriage or the carriage with winch to the location of the load.
  • the inventive winch system is otherwise identical in this application, and thus "facility" should be interpreted to include not only fixed structural members of a building but also movable members connected to the building.
