Definitions

  • a tension spring device which can be used for mooring boats and towing cars comprises a flexible draw element, for example, a rope, and a spring element of an elastic material, for example, rubber.
  • the draw element is connected with the spring element at at least two points and between these two points the draw element extends in a path deviating from a straight line, for example, a helix path, the draw element engaging the elastic material of the spring element at least in the tensioned state of the spring device.
  • the present invention relates to a tension spring device which can be used for example as a towing or mooring device or for maintaining a constant tension in for example a tent rope, comprising a flexible draw element, for example a rope, a cable or a chain, and an elastic spring element.
  • a spring element consisting of a highly elastic material, such as rubber, because of the fact that the spring motion is soundless and that no scraping of for example a boat takes place. Because of the relatively small values of the tensile and tearing strength of rubber it is not suitable to use a rubber spring in the same way as a metal spring.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a, tension spring device having a spring element consisting of highly elastic material, such as rubber.
  • a tension spring device comprising a flexible draw element and an elastic spring element, in which the draw element is at at least two points connected with the elastic springelement and between these two points extends along a path deviating from a straight line and in which the draw element, at least in the tensioned state of the tension spring device, engages said spring element between said two points.
  • An embodiment of a tension spring device of this kind includes a rubber body as the spring element and a draw element, preferably a. rope, which extends into the. rubber body at one end thereof, out to the periphery of the rubber body, helically around the body, into the rubber body and out therefrom at the opposite end of the rubber body.
  • the draw element is fixed or locked to the spring element at said connection points. Thereby it is secured that the tension spring device returns to the original position after it has been subjected to a tensional force.
  • the draw element can be locked to the spring element in such a way that in the nontensioned position of the tension spring device the draw element extends around the spring element at some distance therefrom.

Adjacent the openings in the end surfaces 11 the holes 10 extend substantially axially with respect to the spring element and successively merge into a helical path in the direction of their other openings.
  • the rope 2 extends into the hole 10 and out onto the cylindrical central portion 6 of the spring element, where the rope helically extends the desired number of turns around the jacket surface of the cylindrical central portion 6. Thereupon the rope extends into the hole 10 at the opposite end portion 8 of the spring element and extends out from this end portion in the axial direction.
  • the draw element i.e., the rope
  • the turns of the rope extending around the central portion 6 will elastically press the central portion 6 together at the same time as the end portions are separated from each other and turned in relation to each other in such a direction that a slight rolling up of the turns takes place.
  • a spring action comprising a combination of pressure, tensile and torsion stress on the spring element.
