TOWING DEVICE WITH A HINGED FAIRLEAD |
摘要 |
A towing device, intended to be fitted to the deck of a ship, comprises a winch, a cable and a fairlead, the cable running through the fairlead under the action of the winch. The fairlead comprises at least a first and a second sector, the sectors allowing the cable to be guided in a groove made in each of the sectors, a first articulation with a degree of freedom to rotate about an axis, the articulation connecting the two sectors, the axis being substantially perpendicular to a direction in which the cable runs substantially through the fairlead at the articulation, and limiting means that limit the angular travel of the articulation. The sectors and the limiting means are dimensioned so as to prevent the cable from exceeding a lower limit of radius of curvature. |
