DEVICE FOR CONNECTING WITH SCREW ROPE Russian patent published in 1997 - IPC

FIELD: mechanical engineering. SUBSTANCE: housing has end face covers provided with central openings through which a screw rope passes. There are thin-walled washers inside the housing. The shape of the openings in the washers is the same as corresponding shape of the screw rope that passes through them. The washers are kinematically coupled with the housing. The kinematic connection may be made as rods mounted in the end face covers. The rods pass through the axially alined openings arranged over periphery of the washers. The kinematic connection may be also made as additional thin-walled washers interposed between the major ones. EFFECT: enhanced reliability. cl, dwg
