Abstract

942,333. Spinning cables for suspension bridges. COLORADO FUEL & IRON CORPORATION. Feb.9, 1961 [Oct.12, 1960], No.4834/61. Heading E1G. Apparatus for laying wires for incorporation in a suspension cable for a bridge comprises a track strand 11, 11<SP>1</SP> fixedly mounted along a path having approximately the catenary contour of the cable to be formed, a hauling rope 15 mounted for movement along a path below that of the track strand, means 22 for moving the hauling rope along the path, a carriage 13 mounted for movement along the track strand and provided with means for supporting coiled wire, means for releasably connecting said carriage with said hauling rope to cause movement of the carriage along the track strand, means for anchoring the free end of wire drawn from the coiled wire on the carriage at a point adjacent one end of the cable to be formed and means for applying a frictional resistance to the delivery of wire from the coil as the carriage is moved along the track stand. The coil is wound on a reinforced segmental drum having means for rapidly moving its segments to vary its diameter and brake means associated therewith, see Figs. 5 and 6 (not shown), said brake means being responsive to a pneumatic jack actuated by a valve controlled by the movement of the carriage, see also Fig. 8 (not shown). Specification 911,976 is referred to.
