<p>A winching device comprises a casing (65), a pulley (40) rotatably mounted on the support (65) and having a cable (21) secured thereto for wrapping and unwrapping about the pulley on rotation thereof, and pulley actuating means (53). The device further comprises a shroud (70) in the form of a sleeve encircling the pulley (40) so as to contain the cable (21) on the pulley, the shroud having a cable entry aperture (72) for the through passage of the cable and a pawl aperture receiving a pawl (74) therein, the pawl being biased towards the hub of the pulley to assist in containing the cable on the pulley. The shroud is easily mounted on a casing pin (61) and the pulley is dropped into the shroud in order to align the cable-receiving channel of the pulley with the pawl aperture and cable entry aperture. <IMAGE></p> |
