Latest Patents
Wayne Trenery holds a patent for a "Cable foul sensor device for winches." This device includes a flapper plate that extends from a cover for the cable drum, along with a sensing finger that terminates above the upper layer of cable wound on the drum. The design features a pivot member connected to the flapper plate, which allows for an adjustable set screw. A stationary housing for spring-loaded switches is mounted on the cover, which includes a contact plate that is depressed by the set screw to close the switches and provide power to the drum. In the event of a cable foul, the sensing finger and flapper plate are displaced, causing the pivot member to pivot away from the actuator plate. This action allows the spring-loaded switches to open, interrupting power to the drum and locking it in place. An audio and/or visual signal is also provided to indicate that a cable foul has occurred.
