- a conveyor unit with a drive wheel 32 which has a number of engagement sections 33 on the circumference, each with at least one force transmission element 34, which interact with ring bodies 12 on the line guide device 10 in order to drive them either in the forward direction F or in the reverse direction B. Parts that are equivalent in terms of function and/or construction are therefore not described again.
- the main difference from the previous exemplary embodiment consists in two additional functions, namely an adjustable guide device 50 on the one hand and an end switch-off device 61, 62 on the other, which switches off the drive/motor M of the drive wheel in the two end positions when the cable guide device 10 is released and/or retrieved.
- the pivotable guide device 50 has here, as in FIG.
- the funnel-like insertion port 57 is shown in FIG.
- SA- SB and FIG.6 are mounted on two arcuate lateral supports 53 which are pivoted about the axis R and have a cam groove 54 in which a shaft 55 of the actuator S engages for motor-driven adjustment of the output direction of the guide device 50 possible distances for removing the cable routing device 10 are bridged, or a more suitable feed in the height of the shore power supply can be adjusted variably or as needed.
- a preferred end switch-off device 61, 62 for switching off the drive/motor M when hauling in or outputting is explained with reference to FIGS. 5A-5B and FIG.
- the insertion mouth 57 is slidably guided via a tubular extension with a switching flange 63 in a setting on the two carriers 52, approx. in the drive wheel 32 tangential direction.
- a first end switch-off device 61 for switching off in the maximum end position when hauling in (on the right in FIG. 6), ie when the line guide device 10 is fully hauled in, has a limit switch 65 which can be actuated by the switching flange 63 guided in the connecting link.
- a limit switch 65 for controlling the drive/motor M is actuated via the switching flange 63.
- a special switching ring body 52A (FIG. 5B), with a larger outer diameter than the driving ring body 12, strikes the inside of the insertion opening 57 when retrieving and so pulls the switching flange 63 against the catch-up limit switch 65 around it in this fully retracted end position to operate .
- the end switch-off device 62 for outputting is realized in a similar construction.
- another switching flange 67 is guided in a sliding link, approximately tangentially, and interacts with a limit switch 69 when a special switching ring body 52B pushes the switching flange 67 against the output limit switch 69 draws .
- the switching ring body 52B is attached to the line guide device 10 in accordance with the completely discharged position.
- the end switch-off device 61, 62 can be set manually and purely mechanically during installation on site by selectively attaching special switching ring bodies 52A, 52B to the line routing device 10 with regard to the desired end position.
- the special switching ring bodies 52A, 52B serve as mechanical detection elements for detecting the position of the line routing device 10 .
- the switching ring body 52A, 52B can, apart from the larger diameter in a construction similar to FIG. 4 and be detachably attached to the line guide device 10 .
- other non-contact e.g. B. electromechanical solutions are used.
