TENSION BALANCER FIXING DEVICE FOR ELECTRIC CAR WIRE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To connect a tension balancer to an electric car wire without adjusting the tension at an installation site. SOLUTION: A fixing device 1 is attachably/detachably interposed between a casing 22 of a spring type tension balancer 21 and a rod 24. The fixing device 1 comprises: an abutting member 2 abutted on an end part of the casing 22; a pair of pressure resistant bars 3 to extend both sides of the rod 24 by a predetermined length parallel thereto with one end connected to the abutting member; and a fixed yoke 4 which extends in a direction orthogonal to the axis of the rod 24 and is connected to the other end of the pair of pressure-resistant bars 3 at both ends with an intermediate part locked to a handle 24a of the rod 24. By fitting the fixing device 1 to a tension balancer 21, the pressure-resistant bars 3 maintain the state where the rod 24 are drawn from the casing 22 against the spring force until a predetermined tension to the electric car wire is obtained. If the fixing device 1 is withdrawn after installing the tension balancer 21, the tension balancer 21 holds the electric car wire by the predetermined tension. COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
