Abstract

Abstract In a braking device for motor-driven reeling devices, a motor-driven reeling drum (5) cooperates with a brake (10) for braking thereof. In order to provide a simple braking device which is suitable primarily for reeling devices of a more simple type, the driving motor (7, 11) of the reeling drum (5) is movably mounted such that it is movable relative to the brake (10) with which it cooperates via a movement transferring system (12, 20) for controlling the braking effect of the brake.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 95 words
A braking device for a motor driven reeling device comprising: a reeling drum; controllably applicable brake means for braking rotational movement of said reeling drum; a motor drivingly engaging a drive ring on said reeling drum and pivotably mounted eccentricly of the axis of said reeling drum for movement along an arcuate path the center of which lies on the axis of said reeling drum; and movement transferring means operatively interposed between said motor and said brake means for controllably applying said brake means in response to movement of said motor along said arcuate path.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 95 words
A braking device for a motor driven reeling device comprising: a reeling drum; controllably applicable brake means for braking rotational movement of said reeling drum; a motor drivingly engaging a drive ring on said reeling drum and pivotably mounted eccentricly of the axis of said reeling drum for movement along an arcuate path the center of which lies on the axis of said reeling drum; and movement transferring means operatively interposed between said motor and said brake means for controllably applying said brake means in response to movement of said motor along said arcuate path.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 61 words
A braking device according to claim 1, wherein said brake means comprises a brake drum connected to said reeling drum, a brake ring frictionally engaging said brake drum, and a plurality of pivotable locking fingers engaging said brake ring, said locking fingers pivoting toward said brake ring to press said brake ring against said brake drum when the brake is applied.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 39 words
A braking device according to claim 2, wherein said movement transferring means comprises means for limiting the pivoting movement of said locking fingers toward said brake ring in response to the movement of said motor along said arcuate path.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 47 words
A braking device according to claim 3, wherein said limiting means comprises a guide plate provided with guide pins engaging said locking fingers, said guide plate being pivotable about the axis of said reeling drum in response to the movement of said motor along said arcuate path.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 37 words
A braking device according to claim 4, wherein said guide plate is provided with at least one catch pin engaging said brake ring for limiting the movement of said brake ring with respect to said locking fingers.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 51 words
A braking device according to claim 1, wherein said movement transferring means comprises a lever means having a long lever arm engaging said motor and a short lever arm engaging said brake means, whereby the force of movement of said motor is increased as it is applied to said brake means.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 28 words
A braking device according to claim 6, wherein said short lever arm engages a shoulder on a pivotable guide plate which controls the application of said brake means.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 46 words
A braking device according to claim 1, wherein said motor is mounted on a swinging arm pivotably journalled on the axis of said reeling drum, and said drive ring of said reeling drum comprises a ring gear engaged by a drive gear driven by said motor.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 41 words
A braking device according to claim 8, wherein when said motor is stopped and during wind-up of an article onto said reeling drum, said motor is pivoted into engagement with a frame member which limits further pivoting movement of the motor.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 18 words
A braking device according to claim 1, wherein said brake means are applied when said motor is stopped.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 43 words
A braking device according to claim 1, wherein said motor is a reversible motor which is driven in one direction during wind-up of an article onto said reeling drum and in the opposite direction during unwinding of an article from said reeling drum.
