Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0678432A1] The clamp consists of a control mechanism (27) with a vertical keel (22) lying parallel to the cable and offset to one side of it, and two jaws (25,26) carried on a horizontal branch (24) at the bottom of the keel. One of the jaws is able to slide relative to the other to grip or release the traction cable and is actuated by a rigid rod (29) mounted on the keel so it can rotate and is equipped with levers (30,31) at its lower and upper ends. The lower lever is connected to the moving jaw by sliders (28), and the upper one to a control cylinder rod (40) by a pair of pivoted and spring-loaded arms (33). <IMAGE>
