Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0633217A2] A stores crane for internal materials handling comprising a load carrier (16) so arranged as to run along guides (22) on a vertical crane mast (12) and a lifting device (18) for the load carrier arranged for displacement of the load carrier along the mast. A fall brake (26) is attached to the load carrier for the purpose, in the event of a fault in the lifting device, of preventing the load carrier from falling downwards through engagement with the guides. A detector device (27) is so arranged as to sense the movement of the load carrier and, in the event of deviation from set values, to actuate the fall brake. This exhibits a brake housing (30) with a moving wedge-shaped brake body (33), which is capable of moving against one of the guides (22) and along a support surface (45) angled against the guide in the brake housing. The movement is controlled so as to take place between a first, non-braking position and a second, braking position in which the brake body is in contact under the effect of the wedge with both the guide (22) and the support surface (45). <IMAGE>
