Abstract

The invention relates to a slinging device ( 1 ) with a base part ( 2 ) and with a hoop part ( 6 ) which is attached to the base part ( 2 ) so as to be pivotable relative to the base part ( 2 ) about a pivot axis ( 4 ) which hoop part serves for the slinging of a slinging, load-securing, tensioning or lifting means ( 28 ). The slinging device ( 1 ) is equipped with an adjustment mechanism ( 40 ) which has at least one hoop deflection cam ( 46, 46 a , 46 b ) and at least one brake probe ( 42 ) which, with the pivoting movement ( 8 ) of the hoop part ( 6 ) relative to the base part ( 2 ), passes across the hoop deflection cam at least in certain sections at at least one deflection position ( 47, 47 a , 47 b ). The adjustment mechanism generates a deflection force ( 50 ) which increases with decreasing distance from the at least one deflection position and which is directed counter to the pivoting movement ( 8 ). The deflection force makes it more difficult to move the hoop part ( 6 ) into the deflection position. In order to be able to easily and inexpensively adapt the slinging device ( 1 ) to different usage requirements, it is provided according to the invention that the hoop deflection cam ( 46, 46 a , 46 b ) is arranged on a separate cam carrier ( 44 ) which is attached to the base part ( 2 ) or hoop part ( 6 ).

Claims (15)

1 . Slinging device ( 1 ) with a base part which is designed to be attachable to an object, such as a loading surface, with a hoop part which is attached to the base part so as to be pivotable relative to the base part about a pivot axis for slinging a slinging, load-securing, tensioning or lifting means, and with an adjustment mechanism including at least one hoop deflection cam and at least one brake probe that passes across the hoop deflection cam at least in certain sections at a deflection position with the pivoting movement between the hoop part and the base part, and which generates a deflection force which increases with decreasing distance from the at least one deflection position and which is directed counter to the pivoting movement, wherein the hoop deflection cam is arranged at a separate cam carrier attached to the base part or the hoop part.

2 . Slinging device according to claim 1 , wherein the cam carrier is arranged at the base part or the hoop part to be repeatedly releasable and/or repeatedly exchangeable.

3 . Slinging device according to claim 1 , wherein the cam carrier is fastened to the base part.

4 . Slinging device according to claim 1 , wherein the cam carrier is located at the side of the hoop part facing away, in the direction of the pivot axis, from the base part.

5 . Slinging device according to claim 1 , wherein the cam carrier is annular.

6 . Slinging device according to claim 1 , wherein the cam carrier extends around the pivot axis at least in certain sections.

7 . Slinging device according to claim 1 , wherein the cam carrier and the brake probe are pressed against each other in a resilient manner at least in a region around a deflection position.

8 . Slinging device according to claim 1 , wherein the brake probe is resilient.

9 . Slinging device according to claim 1 , wherein the hoop deflection cam is limited by at least one guide bevel.

10 . Slinging device according to claim 1 , wherein the cam carrier is seated on a bearing journal of the base part carrying the hoop part.

11 . Slinging device according to claim 1 , wherein the cam carrier covers a bearing between the base part and the hoop part.

12 . Slinging device according to claim 1 , wherein the base part with the hoop part attached thereto is fastened to a retaining bolt so as to be rotatable about an axis of rotation extending perpendicularly to the pivot axis.

13 . Slinging device according to claim 1 , wherein at least one deflection position is located spaced apart from the ends of a pivoting region of the pivoting movement of the hoop part opposite the base part.

14 . Slinging device according to claim 1 , wherein one deflection position each is located at an end of the pivoting region of the pivoting movement.

15 . Exchangeable cam carrier, designed to be attached to a slinging device according to claim 1 .
