PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a winch that minimizes a structural space and enables a smooth insertion of a transmission device into a drum body. SOLUTION: The winch has a cylindrical drum 2 whose surface is engraved with a rope groove 3 along which a wire rope 25 can be wound in a plurality of layers, flange plates 4 and 5 delimiting sides of the drum 2, and a means for fixing an end of the wire rope 25 in the first winding layer. The end of the wire rope 25 is inserted into a rope passage 26 defined inside one flange plate 4 out of the two flange plates 4 and 5, is led out through an opening 34 from an inner side 29 of the one flange plate 4 substantially on the radius of the first winding layer, and is provided with a transition substantially corresponding to a helical transition of the wire rope in the first winding layer at least in an outgoing region 30. The wire rope 25 is held in the rope passage 26 by frictional engagement or form engagement. COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO
