  • Patent number: 9567196
    Abstract: A cable hoist having an emergency braking arrangement comprising a dual toothed wheel assembly driven via a cable drum of the hoist. One of two toothed wheels of the toothed wheel assembly is sensed by a sensing lever of an anchor and an opposite end of the anchor interacts with a ratchet wheel of the toothed wheel assembly. As soon as an over speed occurs, the anchor engages in the ratchet wheel and causes a rotary movement of a carrier on which the anchor is mounted. This rotary motion is used to trigger a mechanical braking arrangement coupled to the cable drum.
