Abstract
A cable slackness monitoring device has a pull cord to detect movement of support pins associated with the cables. In the case of a slack cable the support pin moves downwardly relative to a carrier frame. Fixedly clamped between a nut and a locknut is a trigger element which engages the pull cord in the case of movement of the support pin. The pull cord is fixed at one end to a fixing point of a bracket, and is, and is connected at the other end to a displaceable slide. The deflection of the taut pull cord caused by the movement of the support pin moves the slide, actuating a limit value detection.
