Abstract (en)

[origin: US7175163B2] The invention concerns a so-called capstan winch ( 1 ) comprising drums ( 2, 3 ) driving a cable (C) and provided with a peripheral wall ( 22, 32 ) around which are strung independent peripheral rings ( 40-45, 50-55 ). Said rings are provided with a peripheral groove designed to receive the cable (C) and are made of an elastic material so as to allow both the cable (C) to be driven and a relative sliding movement between the peripheral rings ( 40-45, 50-55 ) and the peripheral wall ( 22, 32 ), the relative sliding movement being of amplitude substantially equal to longitudinal deformation of the cable (C), when it is subjected to tension stresses. The two drums ( 2, 3 ) can be axially offset relative to each other (p/2) and their axes of rotation (Delta<SUB>1</SUB>, Delta<SUB>2</SUB>), may form a non-null angle of inclination. The invention is particular applicable to deep sea oil exploration.
