摘要： A constant tension winching mechanism which has a friction clutch interposed between the drive member and the drum of the winching mechanism. A conduit system is connected to the clutch for directing a cooling media thereinto and therefrom so the clutch will not be damaged by the heat generated by continuous slippage. A variable controller is provided to control the degree of engagement between the friction elements within the clutch, which controller may be either manually or automatically operated. The cable which leads from the winding drum is provided with a cable tension sensing mechanism which will operate the variable controller to maintain a constant tension on the cable at all times when operated by an automatic control. An actuator line is shown which leads to the clutch to vary the engagement of the friction elements within the clutch.

摘要： A free floating coupling device for use between drive and driven shafts, which coupling device consists of a clutch portion on each shaft, which clutch portions are held in spaced apart relation by a tubular member which serves as a bearing lubricant chamber. The coupling allows power to be transmitted from the drive shaft to the driven shaft, even when a slight mis-alignment exists between the shafts. The anti-friction bearings allow full torque to be exerted between the shafts.

摘要： A system for maintaining a lineal element, such as load transfer cables, at a constant tension to enable the transfer of a load, such as parcels, cargo, or the like, from one station to another, even though one or both stations are relatively moveable. Provision is made to maintain constant tension on winch lines, to enable the transfer of loads between two fixed stations, between a ship at sea and a stationary loading dock, or between two ships at sea, which are relatively moveable, by utilizing a continuously rotating, slipping clutch, which clutch is continuously cooled by circulating a fluid media therethrough to maintain the friction elements therein at a temperature below which the friction elements would become damaged.One form of the dynamic brake mechanism is driven continuously, while operating, by a power means, such as a hydraulic motor which drives through a worm gear to rotate the body of the dynamic brake to present a new "live", moving surface for the friction element to engage, which normally can be run in either direction; however, in some instances it is to be rotated counter to the normal rotation of the element being braked.
