<p>A device for compensating variations in the length of tensioned cables, with substantially constant tension, comprising a contrast element (2, 2a) which is designed to be interposed between one end of the tensioned cable (3) and an anchoring element and is adapted to generate an elastic reaction which can vary as a function of the length variation of the cable (3), the device comprising connection means (4, 4a) for connecting the contrast element (2, 2a) to the cable (3), which are adapted to convert the elastic reaction of the contrast element (2, 2a) into a substantially constant tension applied to the cable (3), regardless of its length, over a preset length variation range, the contrast element being constituted by at least one spiral spring (5, 5a) and the connection means being preferably constituted by at least one variable-radius pulley (6, 6a), which is connected to the spiral spring (5, 5a) and is provided with at least one winding race (11, 11a) for the cable (3) to be tensioned or for a wire-like element (8, 8a) connected to the cable (3) to be tensioned.</p> |
