Definitions
- the loads are generally hoisted by means of tackles having a variable number of strands, generally two or four strands, so as to allow the operator to modify the hoisting force or speed.
- a change in the number of the strands is performed as illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2 of the accompanying drawings by means of a pulley P adapted to occupy two positions for one of which (FIG. 1) said pulley engages the main tackle which corresponds to the case of a two-stranded tackle, while the other position (FIG. 2) corresponds to a securing of said pulley to the carriage C and consequently to a four-stranded tackle.
- the passage from one position to the other is obtained by setting the carriage C at a suitable point of the jib of the crane, after which the pulley block is brought into contact with the carriage C and means are operated for the engagement or for the release of a pulley P as the case may be.
- Said means are usually actuated starting from the operators cab through the agency of a mechanical control system and when the crane is no longer controlled from said cab, but say from ground or from some building through an electric remote control system, the operator is constrained to return into his cab so as to produce the desired change in the tackle and this increases the intricacy of the operation and leads obviously to a substantial loss of time.
- My invention cuts out these drawbacks and allows ensuring said change in the tackle by means of an arrangement carried by said tackle and adapted to be controlled by a remote control system so as to be brought near an operator located at any desired point.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 refer to prior art as already disclosed
- FIG. 3 is a side view of the system including the carriage and the tackle in its two-stranded condition
- FIGS. 4, 5 and 6 are front elevational views of the strap fitted on the carriage and of the pulley blocks shown respectively for two stranded conditions of the tackle and for its four-stranded condition and during the pas: sage between the two conditions.
- FIG. 3 designate the strand distributing carriage which carries in accordance with my invention two parallel transverse spindles 3 to which are pivotally secured two levers 4 interconnected by a spring urging them against the stop 6.
- Said levers 4 are provided with perforations 7 registering with each other and form together a sort of strap the opening of which flares downwardly, as shown at 8, said flaring being obtained by a bending of the outer ends of the levers 4 away from each other.
- the main or lower pulley block includes two parallel sloping members pivotally carried by two coaxial transverse pivots 12. Said sloping members can occupy selectively two positions illustrated respectively in solid lines and in interrupted lines in FIG. 3.
- auxiliary pulley block 13 As to the auxiliary pulley block 13, it carries above its pulley a transverse pin 14.
- the auxiliary pulley block 13 engages the main pulley block 9, while the sloping members 10 occupy the position illustrated in solid lines.
- the main pulley block 9 When it is desired subsequently to return to a twostranded condition, the main pulley block 9 is lowered again onto ground surface and its sloping members are returned into the position illustrated in interrupted lines in FIG. 3, the block being then raised in an empty condition up to the carriage 2.
- the compound strap formed by said levers opens and releases thus the auxiliary pulley block 13 which returns into its lower position on the main pulley block 9.
- the tackle is then lowered onto ground surface.
- the sloping members are returned into their normal outwardly directed position illustrated in solid lines in FIG. 3.
- a load-hoisting tackle chiefly for tower cranes and the like appliances comprising upper pulleys, a carriage carrying said upper pulleys, a compound strap including two downwardly flaring flanges separated by a gap and adapted to pivot away from each other round horizontal axes lying in their planes and perpendicular to the axes of the upper pulleys, elastic means urging the lower ends of the flanges towards each other, a main pulley block including at least one pulley and adapted to be connected selectively through two strands and four strands with the upper pulleys and two sloping members arranged symmetrically to either sides of a vertical plane perpendicular to the axis of the pulley of the main pulley block and adapted to rock each round a spindle parallel with last-mentioned axis between an outwardly directed inoperative position and an operative position for which said members are adapted to enter the gap between the flanges of the strap to urge said flanges
