Problems solved by technology

The design according to EP2986869B1 allows very large lengths and offers good protection, ie a high service life of the line especially when rolling up and down, but is not very suitable for auxiliary circuits, especially since the required installation is usually not present e.g. inside the drilling rig space

[0064] Figures 1A-1B A first embodiment of a line guide 10 according to the invention is shown in a suspended arrangement, having a first vertical longitudinal section 12A and a second vertical longitudinal section 12B, said first One longitudinal section has a first end 12C and the second longitudinal section has a second end 12D. The first end 12C is connected to a machine part M which in this embodiment moves vertically up and down, for example the power swivel head 3 ( FIG. 4 ) of a drilling rig. The second longitudinal section 12B is in turn fastened with its end 12D to the frame or stationary machine part F. FIG. The return line 13 forms a deflection area which connects the two substantially vertically hanging longitudinal sections 12B, 12B.

[0065] The line guide 10 has a flexible load-bearing rope 11 made of high-strength plastic fibers (such as high-modulus polyethylene or high-modulus polyamide). Load (Gewichtslast). For this purpose, the free or protruding end ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a line routing device (10) for guiding a plurality of lines, such as cables, hoses, or the like, particularly for hanging applications, such as supplying a vertically traveling power head (3) of a drill (1). The line routing device (10) has a flexible carrying strand (11) and a plurality of guide bodies (14) arranged one behind the other in the longitudinal direction of the carrying strand. According to the invention, adjacent guide bodies (14) can be deflected spatially toward each other and each guide body has a central part (15A) having a center axis (A), which extends coaxially to the carrying strand (11), and an outer part (15B) having at least one circumferential element (17). The outer part (15B) delimits a receiving region (L), which is open in the axial direction, for the lines, radially to the outside.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to a device for guiding a plurality of supply lines, such as cables, hoses or the like, hereinafter referred to as a line guide, especially for suspended applications, In the suspended application a line guide with two sections hanging down and a return line between the two sections is arranged. [0002] However, the invention in particular does not only relate to line guides, which are suitable, for example, for so-called “auxiliary circuits” of drilling installations. Auxiliary circuits are harnesses for the supply of normally vertically movable consumers, such as top drives of drilling installations, and between two free-hanging sections Form a loop to provide freedom of movement. Background technique [0003] Such an auxiliary circuit is described, for example, in patent EP2105575B1 and parts of the drilling rig 1 are shown with reference numeral 6 in FIG. 4 (prior art). In this case, hoses 5 and cables su...
