  • Publication number: 20220340401
    Abstract: A rope fastening arrangement of a hoisting device, which comprises a rope drum, a fastening device having a chamber which defines the vertical boundary dimensions, the horizontal boundary dimensions, and depth direction boundary dimensions of the fastening device, a hoisting rope and a hoisting member which by means of the hoisting rope ascends and descends supported by the fastening device and rope drum. Said rope fastening arrangement further comprises that the hoisting rope (4) is locked to the fastening device by wedging, whereby the fastening device guides the first end of the hoisting rope away so that the first end of the hoisting rope does not extend outside the vertical boundary dimensions of the chamber.

  • Publication number: 20200283272
    Abstract: A trolley of a crane is arranged to move along a main support structure of the crane. The trolley includes a support frame structure; bearing wheels which are fastened to the support frame structure and by means of which the trolley is arranged to move along the main support structure; and a hoisting mechanism that has a rope drum for a hoisting rope, a rope pulley arrangement through which the hoisting rope may be guided from the rope drum to a fixed fastening point on the trolley, and a hoisting member in cooperation with the hoisting rope for hoisting a load. The rope drum is supported to the support frame structure of the trolley so that the axle of the rope drum is parallel to the main support structure. The rope pulley arrangement is located, in the axial direction of the rope drum, at least partly outside one rope drum end which is on the side of said fastening point.

  • Publication number: 20040029565
    Abstract: To provide a voice response unit for use with a telephone communication system, which is able to authenticate a user. Information-providing sites 8, 11 which provide a service using the voice response unit, has user databases 9, 12 for storing the information identifiable of a service subscriber. On the other hand, a voice response unit 5 is provided with a similar user DB 6. If a new subscription or cancellation arises for the service using the voice response unit 5 in the information-providing sites and contents of the user database 9 is changed, a database update instruction is transmitted to the voice response unit 5, so that contents of the user DB 6 is synchronized with contents of the user database 9 or 12. The voice response unit 5 makes authentication of the subscriber using the user DB 6, and provides voice information only to a valid subscriber.
