Abstract

14,267. Davy Bros., and Holmes, T. E. June 21. Rope or chain stress indicators and stress-limiting devices.-In a device for preventing injury to a crane in consequence of the full stress of an excessive load being thrown upon the hoisting-rope, the ail portion of the winding-rope or its equivalent A is attached to a flexible band B, which is led over friction drums E, Candconnected to a counterweight D bearing a predetermined ratio to the maximum working load, The drum E is adjustably mounted to regulate the arc of contact of the drum C and band B. The weight D slides on rods d and normally rests on springs J, which serve to cushion the weight should it fall from its elevated position. An excess load causes the band to slide over the drums, which are prevented from rotation iu that direction by ratchets and pawls, and the weight is raised. The weight may be caused to ring a bell M. When the tension decreases, the drums slide over the pawls and the weight falls back on to the springs. The tail end of the rope may pass directly over the drums. Overwinding of the weight H is prevented by its encountering some portion of the crane structure.
