  • Hoist spooling assembly and methods of using same
    Patent number: 8991791
    Abstract: A hoist spooling assembly for spooling a cable about a drum while preventing relative movement between the cable and the drum. The hoist spooling assembly evenly delivers force from a roller to the cable while reducing the incidence of spooling problems, including mechanical wear of the cable and formation of loops and kinks in the cable.
    Type: Grant

  • HOIST LIMITING SYSTEMS AND METHODS
    Publication number: 20140166953
    Abstract: A hoist rotation limiting system for a hoist. A hoist drum has a grooved exterior surface configured to position a cable in a predetermined position relative to the ends and longitudinal axis of the hoist drum as the cable is wound onto or off of the hoist drum. Upon the cable being positioned in the predetermined position, the cable urges portions of a carrier weldment to contact a switch, thereby sending an electrical signal to stop rotation of a hoist motor.
