Abstract (en)
For suspending an article or object such as a hanging basket normally in a raised disposition in such a manner that it can be drawn down and subsequently returned to its raised position, easily and without use of tools or disconnecting the article or object, the suspension device comprises a suspension band (32) wound upon a drum (20) biassed by a spring (62) towards its wound-up condition. A ratchet disc (30) turns with the drum (20) and has a pawl (44) co-operating with it. Lobes (50) of the disc (30), between adjacent notches (42), are of increasing height so that upon rapid draw-off of the band (32) the pawl (44) will tend to ride over the notches (42). Upon slowing down of the draw-off, the pawl (44) engages into the next subsequent notch (42) to retain the object suspended from the band (32) at the height down to which it has been drawn.
