FINE ADJUSTMENT
HYDRAULIC LINKAGE

 

 

Forest ThistleFine adjustment Linkage is primarily used

Adjustment is done at bottom station and without the need of charing conveyances. The linkage is adjusted by placing a hydraulic jack in each linage string, making length adjustments, and then setting spacer bars.

The adjustment with the linkage are in balance when the last one is put in motion by the hydraulic jack. At that point, all ropes are in equal tension.

The jacks are powered by a pump unit mounted on a cart also containing the spacer bars, hoses and control pendant.

Course adjustment is made using Chaseblocks mounted either above the linkage, the opposite side, or a combination of the two.

 

Thimble Cappels: This attachment allows rope length adjustments by pulling the rope around the Thimble. With this type of adjustment, the rope does not have to be cut as accurately as with Sockets or Wedge Capels.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sockets: Rope sockets are used for the capping of wire winding ropes or balance ropes, and are frequently regarded as a superior method. The socket comprises a cone-shaped body, suitably machined to accommodate the rope end to be white metalled, and a threaded pin with nut and split cotter pin.

Chase Blocks: right-angled or straight

 

 

 

 

 

Rocket Safety Detaching Hooks fulfil a vital function in drum winding installations. Their purpose is to detach the winding rope from the conveyance in the event of an overwind, and to catch and suspend the conveyance in the headframe. The device prevents injury to personnel and extensive damage to equipment should an overwind occur. The hook can be reset to the normal closed position and released from the catch plate by a lowering shackle or links. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tail Rope Attachments: In this case right angle jaw and jaw chaseblock, swivel and socket

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tail Rope Attachment: Wedge Type Cappels provide a simple, reliable and safe method of capping wire winding ropes. The cappels act as a connecting device between rope and conveyance, and are a proven alternative to splicing. They can be used with stranded or locked coil ropes and service all types of hoisting systems

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Guide and rubbing rope: attachments are designed and manufactured to meet all specifications for guide rope shafts,
elevator conveyances and counterweight installations.
