A method for controlling the tension in a spooled device disposed on a winch, comprises providing an input signal to a controller indicative of a measured tension in the spooled device, providing an input signal to the controller indicative of a desired tension in the spooled device, and providing an output signal from the controller to adjust the speed of the winch based on a difference between the desired tension in the spooled device and the measured tension in the spooled device.

The invention proposes a hoisting-cable drive for a mobile crane, which hoisting-cable drive uses a single bottom-hook block (15) instead of a known double bottom-hook block. However, to prevent this single bottom-hook block (15) from tilting in the two cable lines (9, 10), for example due to possible variations in the elongation of the two cable drives, the hoisting-cable drive according to the invention comprises a kinematic force equilibrium device (17, 21), which can equalize such differences. To this effect, another embodiment of the hoisting-cable drive according to the invention uses a hoisting-cable load pickup (21) within each cable line arrangement so that the rotary speed of the winches (7, 8) can be varied, taking into account any load differences in the individual hoisting-cable lines (9, 10). Furthermore, the invention also proposes that the rotary speed of the winches (7, 8) be adjusted, taking into account the geometric winch states and crane states.

A wiredrawing machine (10) consists of a plurality of stages (11) in cascade, each stage comprising a drawbench (13) for passage of the wire (14) partially passed over a power-driven traction pulley (12). The traction pulley is kinematically connected for operation to a first gear (17) having a power-driven planetary gear (19) meshing therewith and rotating about the first gear (17) periphery. Sensor means (23) detects the angular position of the planetary gear (19) about the axis of the first gear (17) and sends position signals to a control circuit (24) which in turn sends commands for speed adjustment to motor (16), in terms of keeping the planetary gear at predetermined angular positions about the first gear.

The invention relates to a back tension device for a winch and comprises a freely rotatable pulley having associated therewith a pivotable tensioning element which is adapted to be urged into engagement with a cable from the winch so as to apply a back tension thereto during the hauling mode. Such tensioning assists in correct winding of the cable on the winch drum.

A tensioner (10) is disclosed for use in tensioning connecting lines (16) connecting a marine riser (14) to a floating platform (12). The tensioner (10) is a passive system which incorporates a series of cylindrical elastomeric members (42, 54, 60) which are deformed in torsion to exert the proper tension on the connecting line (16). A specially tapered drum (30) is provided on the tensioner so that the radial distance from the axis of rotation of the drum to the position where the line leaves the drum varies to compensate for the variation in torsional moment of the elastomeric members so that a predetermined tension can be maintained on the line (16) as the line is payed out and taken in from the tapered drum.

This invention generally relates to a cable recovery device for use on bo a surface ship. The invention compensates for excessive tensions arising in cables carrying submerged loads which are caused by the swell of the ocean acting on the ship, and controls the tension at which the cable is wound. The invention includes a cable winding drum which is rotationally driven by a variable-speed motor, a loop-shaped cable passageway which circumscribes the drum which forms a loop of cable of varying length, and a means for sensing the length of said cable loop and for automatically controlling the speed of the variable speed motor in response thereto. The loop of cable of varying length compensates for excessive cable tensions resulting from the swell of the ship, and allows the cable to be wound around the drum at a desired uniform tension.

A mooring winch system in which automatic mooring duty is performed by a winch having an AC motor fed from the supply via a converter which includes a DC to AC inverter, the convertor producing a balanced three-phase square, quasi-square, sinusoidal or quasi-sinusoidal output. The motor thus can stall indefinitely, be driven in the sense of rope payout by tension force in the mooring rope, or run in the opposite sense to recover rope, without exceeding its rated temperature for that duty. Rope recovery is adequate both for normal duties and also where higher speeds of recovery are required and rope tension is maintained substantially constant throughout.

Winch especially a ship's winch designed for mooring, hauling, towing and the like. A control system adapted to establish a desired tension in the hawser via the drum of the winch by regulating the power of the drive motor so as to pacify or mitigate peak tensional loads on the hawser. A regulatable transmission arranged between a control member of a control device incorporated in the control system and a movable component selected from the winch drum and its drive shaft to control the control member in a linearly regulatable actuation movement depending upon the movement of the movable component. The transmission is regulatable to an actuation position in which a desired tension is established in the hawser from the winch drum on exposure of a desired length of the hawser.
