Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a rope slip-off prevention device and a method for adjusting the gap of a rope slip-off prevention device. [Background technology]

[0002] A conventional rope slippage prevention device includes a fixing member, a first adjustment member, a second adjustment member, a first adjustment bolt, a second adjustment bolt, and a rope guard.

[0003] The fixed member is provided facing the rope hung on the sheave and is fixed to the housing of the hoist. The first adjustment member is supported by the fixed member and is movable in the axial direction of the sheave relative to the fixed member. The first adjustment bolt is provided movably relative to the fixed member, and the first adjustment member moves in the axial direction when it moves. The second adjustment member is supported by the fixed member and provided away from the first adjustment member in the axial direction and is movable in the axial direction relative to the fixed member. The second adjustment bolt is provided movably relative to the fixed member, and the second adjustment member moves in the axial direction when it moves. The rope guard is provided between the rope and the fixed member and is supported by the fixed member via the first adjustment member and the second adjustment member. In addition, the rope guard is formed with a first inclined surface with which the first adjustment member is in contact and a second inclined surface with which the second adjustment member is in contact.

[0004] When adjusting the gap between the rope guard and the rope and making the rope guard parallel to the rope, the worker moves the first adjustment bolt and the second adjustment bolt in the axial direction of the sheave, whereby the first inclined surface of the rope guard moves in the radial direction of the sheave via the first adjustment member, and the second inclined surface of the rope guard moves in the radial direction of the sheave via the second adjustment member (for example, Patent Document 1). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Patent No. 7195472 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] In the conventional rope slippage prevention device, either the first adjustment bolt or the second adjustment bolt is provided facing the housing of the hoist in the axial direction of the sheave. Therefore, when an operator moves the adjustment bolt in the axial direction of the sheave, there is a possibility that the bolt may come into contact with the housing of the hoist, which makes the operation difficult.

[0007] Furthermore, in the conventional rope slippage prevention device, the worker must rotate both the first adjustment bolt and the second adjustment bolt, which reduces operability.

[0008] The present disclosure has been made to solve the problems described above, and aims to provide a rope disengagement prevention device and a gap adjustment method for a rope disengagement prevention device that can improve workability when adjusting the gap between the rope and an adjustment member that functions as a rope guard and making the adjustment member parallel to the rope. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] The rope anti-slip device of the present disclosure comprises a fixed member that is fixed to the housing of a hoisting machine and has a first inclined surface that is inclined in the axial direction of the sheave so that the radial thickness dimension of the sheave changes as the sheave approaches the sheave, and is the surface that faces the surface fixed to the housing; an adjustment member that has a surface that faces the rope and is formed with a second inclined surface that is an inclined surface that can come into contact with the first inclined surface, and the second inclined surface is movable by sliding along the first inclined surface; an adjustment bolt that is provided opposite the housing and is movable in the axial direction relative to the fixed member; and a fastening member that is interposed between the adjustment member and the adjustment bolt; when the second inclined surface is in contact with the first inclined surface, movement of the adjustment bolt causes the second inclined surface to slide and move along the first inclined surface via the fastening member.

[0010] The gap adjustment method for a rope anti-slip device disclosed herein includes a first step of moving the adjustment member by moving the adjustment bolt to bring the adjustment member into contact with the rope, and a second step of moving the adjustment member from a state in which the adjustment member is in contact with the rope by moving the adjustment bolt to move the adjustment member and adjust the gap. Effect of the Invention

[0011] According to the present disclosure, it is possible to improve workability when adjusting the gap between the rope and an adjustment member that functions as a rope guard and making the adjustment member parallel to the rope. [Brief description of the drawings]

[Figure 10] 10 is a side view showing a rope slippage prevention device according to a modified example of the first embodiment. FIG. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0013] Embodiment 1 Fig. 1 is a cross-sectional view of an elevator hoist 1 according to embodiment 1. Here, the longitudinal direction of the shaft 5 in Fig. 1, which is a direction along the axis of the sheave 3, is defined as an axial direction D1 of the sheave 3. Also, the transverse direction of the shaft 5 in Fig. 1, which is a direction along a line perpendicular to the axis passing through the axial direction D1 of the sheave 3, is defined as a radial direction D2 of the sheave 3.

[0014] In Figure 1, the hoist 1 comprises a sheave 3 for winding ropes 2 arranged in an axial direction D1, a motor 4 for generating a driving force to rotate the sheave 3, a housing 11 for accommodating the motor 4, a shaft 5 for transmitting the driving force generated by the motor 4 to the sheave 3, a pair of bearings 6 for rotatably supporting the shaft 5, a pair of bearing stands 7 for supporting the pair of bearings 6, and a base member 8 for supporting the sheave 3, the housing 11, and the bearing stand 7.

[0015] The motor 4 includes a stator 9 and a rotor 10. The stator 9 is fixed to a housing 11. The end of the shaft 5 on the rotor 10 side in the axial direction D1 is press-fitted and fixed to the rotor 10 with a gap provided between the stator 9 and the rotor 10. When the stator 9 is energized, the motor 4 rotates the rotor 10 and transmits driving force to the shaft 5.

[0016] The housing 11 is formed integrally with one of the bearings 6 provided between the motor 4 and the sheave 3 in the axial direction D1, and a bearing stand 7 supporting the one of the bearings 6. The housing 11 is also provided with two female threaded holes 17 on a surface where the housing 11 and the sheave 3 face each other in the axial direction D1. Here, these two female threaded holes 17 are referred to as the one female threaded hole 17 and the other female threaded hole 17, respectively. The one female threaded hole 17 corresponds to and is fastened to an adjustment bolt 15, and the rope slippage prevention device 12 is fixed. The other female threaded hole 17 corresponds to and is fastened to a fixing bolt 16, and the rope slippage prevention device 12 is fixed. Details of the rope slippage prevention device 12 including the adjustment bolt 15 and the fixing bolt 16 will be described later.

[0017] FIG. 2 is a side view showing the rope slippage prevention device 12 according to the first embodiment. FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view showing the rope slippage prevention device 12 according to the first embodiment. FIG. 3(a) is a view of the AA section of FIG. 2 seen from the sheave 3 side in the axial direction D1, FIG. 3(b) is a view of the BB section of FIG. 2 seen from the sheave 3 side in the axial direction D1, and FIG. 3(c) is a view of the CC section of FIG. 2 seen from the sheave 3 side in the axial direction D1. Here, the direction along the line perpendicular to the line passing through the radial direction D2 in the plane when the housing 11 is seen from the sheave 3 in the axial direction D1 is defined as the depth direction D3. In addition, in the depth direction D3, the fixed member inclined portion 20 side is defined as the front side with respect to the fixed member base portion 19, and the fixed member mounting portion 21 is defined as the back side.

[0018] The rope anti-slip device 12 is arranged opposite the rope 2 hung on the sheave 3 and comprises a fixed member 13 fixed to the housing 11, an adjustment member 14 that is movable relative to the fixed member 13, an adjustment bolt 15 that is arranged movable in the axial direction D1 relative to the fixed member 13 and moves the adjustment member 14 by moving it, a fixing bolt 16 for fixing the fixed member 13 to the housing 11, a spring 18 which is an elastic member arranged between the fixed member 13 and the adjustment member 14, and a washer 27 which is a fastening member interposed between the adjustment member 14 and the adjustment bolt 15.

[0019] The fixing member 13 includes a fixing member base 19, a fixing member inclined portion 20, and a fixing member mounting portion 21. As shown in Fig. 3(c), the fixing member inclined portion 20 and the fixing member mounting portion 21 are respectively joined to two surfaces of the fixing member base 19 in the depth direction D3. In other words, the fixing member inclined portion 20 and the fixing member mounting portion 21 each extend in a direction away from the fixing member base 19 with the fixing member base 19 as the center in the depth direction D3.

[0020] 2, the fixed member base 19 is fixed to the housing 11 and extends in the axial direction D1 in a direction away from the housing 11. Also, as shown in Fig. 3, the cross section of the fixed member base 19 is, for example, T-shaped.

[0021] 2, the fixing member base 19 is provided with a protrusion 100. The protrusion 100 is provided on the contact surface 26, which is the surface that comes into contact with the adjustment member 14 in the depth direction D3. For example, two protrusions 100 are provided.

[0022] 2, the fixing member inclined portion 20 extends from the housing 11 in a direction away from the housing 11 in the axial direction D1. Also, it has a first adjustment bolt insertion hole 200 into which the adjustment bolt 15 can be inserted in the axial direction D1. The first adjustment bolt insertion hole 200 is hollow, and allows the adjustment bolt 15 to move in the axial direction D1.

[0023] In addition, in the axial direction D1, the surface facing the surface fixed to the housing 11 is inclined so that the thickness dimension in the radial direction D2 decreases toward the sheave 3. This inclined surface will be referred to as a first inclined surface 24 hereinafter.

[0024] As shown in Fig. 3, the fixing member attachment portion 21 extends from the housing 11 in a direction away from the housing 11 in the axial direction D1. Also, as shown in Fig. 3(b) and Fig. 3(c), it has a fixing bolt insertion hole 201 into which the fixing bolt 16 can be inserted in the axial direction D1. The fixing bolt insertion hole 201 is hollow, and allows the fixing bolt 16 to move in the axial direction D1.

[0025] The adjustment member 14 includes a rope guard portion 22 and an adjustment member inclined portion 23. As shown in Fig. 3(b), the rope guard portion 22 and the adjustment member inclined portion 23 are joined in the depth direction D3. Also, as shown in Figs. 3(a) and 3(b), the adjustment member 14 is provided on the front side in the depth direction D3.

[0026] 2, the rope guard part 22 has a surface facing the rope 2. The rope guard part 22 is provided between the rope 2 and the fixed member base part 19 via the spring 18, and is movable relative to the fixed member 13.

[0027] 2, the rope guard portion 22 has elongated holes 101 penetrating two faces in the depth direction D3. One elongated hole 101 engages one protrusion 100 provided on the fixing member base 19. The elongated holes 101 are provided so as to be inclined with respect to the face that the rope 2 of the rope guard portion 22 faces. The number and positions of the elongated holes 101 are determined so as to correspond to the protrusions 100. For example, when two protrusions 100 are provided, two elongated holes 101 are provided, and each of the elongated holes 101 is arranged so that one protrusion 100 can be inserted into each of the elongated holes 101.

[0028] As shown in FIG. 2, the adjustment member inclined portion 23 has a second adjustment bolt insertion hole 202 into which the adjustment bolt 15 can be inserted in the axial direction D1. The second adjustment bolt insertion hole 202 is hollow, and the adjustment bolt 15 can move in the axial direction D1. The length of the second adjustment bolt insertion hole 202 in the radial direction D2 is larger than the diameter of the adjustment bolt 15. This is to enable the adjustment member 14 to move in the radial direction D2 with the adjustment bolt 15 inserted into the second adjustment bolt insertion hole 202. For example, when an adjustment bolt 15 with a diameter of 24 mm is used, a second adjustment bolt insertion hole 202 with a length of 36 mm in the radial direction D2 is used.

[0029] 2, the surface where the adjustment member inclined portion 23 and the housing 11 face each other in the axial direction D1 is inclined so that the thickness dimension in the radial direction D2 increases toward the sheave 3 in the axial direction D1. This inclined surface is hereinafter referred to as the second inclined surface 25. The inclination angle of the second inclined surface 25 is determined so that the second inclined surface 25 can come into contact with the first inclined surface 24. The second inclined surface 25 can slide and move along the first inclined surface 24.

[0030] The inclination angle of the elongated hole 101 with respect to the surface where the adjustment member 14 and the rope 2 face is set to be the same as the inclination angle of the second inclined surface 25 with respect to the surface where the rope guard part 22 and the rope 2 face. This allows the elongated hole 101 to slide and move with the protrusion 100 engaged therein when the adjustment member 14 slides in the radial direction D2. Here, when the elongated hole 101 slides and moves, the protrusion 100 does not move, so the position of the protrusion 100 in the elongated hole 101 changes.

[0031] The adjustment bolt 15 and the fixing bolt 16 are bolts with male threads. As shown in FIG. 3(a), the heads of the adjustment bolt 15 and the fixing bolt 16, which are the ends on the side where the male threads are not cut, are, for example, hexagonal in shape. An operator can hold the heads and move the adjustment bolt 15 and the fixing bolt 16. The male thread of the adjustment bolt 15 can be fastened at any position in the axial direction D1 of one female threaded hole 17. The male thread of the fixing bolt 16 can be fastened at any position in the axial direction D1 of the other female threaded hole 17.

[0032] In addition, the adjustment bolt 15 fixes the fixed member 13 and the adjustment member 14 to the housing 11. In addition, when the adjustment bolt 15 is moved in the axial direction D1 with the second inclined surface 25 in contact with the first inclined surface 24, the second inclined surface 25 slides and moves along the first inclined surface 24.

[0033] The spring 18 is arranged to expand and contract in the radial direction D2 when the adjustment member 14 moves in the radial direction D2.

[0034] When the adjustment bolt 15 moves with the second inclined surface 25 in contact with the first inclined surface 24, the washer 27 is pushed by the head of the adjustment bolt 15, causing the second inclined surface 25 to slide and move along the first inclined surface 24, thereby moving the adjustment member 14.

[0035] Next, a method of attaching the rope slippage prevention device 12 to the housing 11 will be described. Fig. 4 is a diagram showing the fixing member 13 and the housing 11 according to the first embodiment integrated together. Fig. 5 is a diagram showing the adjustment member 14, the fixing member 13 and the housing 11 according to the first embodiment integrated together. Fig. 4 is a side view of the rope slippage prevention device 12 as seen from the back side in the depth direction D3, and Fig. 5 is a side view of the rope slippage prevention device 12 as seen from the front side in the depth direction D3.

[0036] First, the fixing bolt 16 is fastened. Specifically, the surface where the fixing member attachment portion 21 and the housing 11 face each other is brought into contact with the surface where the housing 11 and the sheave 3 face each other. In this state, the fixing bolt 16 is inserted from the sheave 3 side toward the housing 11 side in the axial direction D1 into the fixing bolt insertion hole 201 of the fixing member attachment portion 21 and the other female threaded hole 17 of the housing 11, in that order. Then, when the fixing bolt 16 is moved from the sheave 3 side toward the housing 11 side in the axial direction D1, the male thread cut in the fixing bolt 16 engages with the female threaded hole 17 cut in the housing 11. Fastening the fixing bolt 16 in this manner allows the fixing member 13 and the housing 11 to be integrated, as shown in FIG. 4.

[0037] The worker supports the fixing member 13 with one hand and holds the fixing bolt 16 with the other hand, and inserts, moves and tightens the fixing bolt 16.

[0038] Next, the adjustment member 14 is brought into contact with the fixed member 13. Specifically, as shown in Fig. 4, in a state in which the fixed member 13 and the housing 11 are integrated by the fixing bolt 16, the inclined surface of the adjustment member inclined portion 23 is brought into contact with the inclined surface of the fixed member inclined portion 20. At this time, one protrusion 100 provided on the fixed member base portion 19 is engaged with each of the elongated holes 101 provided in the rope guard portion 22.

[0039] Next, a method for adjusting the gap with the rope slippage prevention device 12 will be described. FIG. 6 is a flow chart showing the method for adjusting the gap with the rope slippage prevention device 12. The method for adjusting the gap with the rope slippage prevention device 12 is a method for adjusting the gap S between the adjustment member 14 and the rope 2 in order to make the adjustment member 14 parallel to the rope 2. FIG. 7 is a diagram showing the adjustment member 14 according to the first embodiment in contact with the rope 2. FIG. 8 is a diagram showing the state after the gap S between the adjustment member 14 and the rope 2 according to the first embodiment has been adjusted. Note that FIGS. 7 and 8 are side views of the rope slippage prevention device 12 as viewed from the front side in the depth direction D3.

[0040] First, the adjustment bolt 15 is fastened. Specifically, with the adjustment member 14 in contact with the fixed member 13, the adjustment bolt 15 is inserted from the sheave 3 side toward the housing 11 side in the axial direction D1 into the second adjustment bolt insertion hole 202 of the adjustment member inclined portion 23, the first adjustment bolt insertion hole 200 of the fixed member inclined portion 20, and one of the female screw holes 17 of the housing 11 in that order. Then, when the adjustment bolt 15 is moved from the sheave 3 side toward the housing 11 side in the axial direction D1, the male screw cut in the adjustment bolt 15 is fastened to one of the female screw holes 17 cut in the housing 11. When the adjustment bolt 15 is fastened in this manner, the adjustment member 14, the fixed member 13, and the housing 11 can be integrated as shown in FIG. 5. Next, in the state shown in FIG. 5, the adjustment bolt 15 is moved in the axial direction D1 in the direction from the housing 11 toward the sheave 3, and fastened to one of the female screw holes 17. As the adjustment bolt 15 moves, gaps are generated between the adjustment member 14 and the washer 27, and between the washer 27 and the adjustment bolt 15. Then, due to the weight of the adjustment member 14, the inclined surface of the adjustment member inclined portion 23 slides and moves along the inclined surface of the fixed member inclined portion 20, the spring 18 stretches in the radial direction D2, and the adjustment member 14 moves in the radial direction D2 in a direction approaching the sheave 3. As a result, as shown in FIG. 7, the adjustment member 14 comes into contact with the rope 2. Specifically, the surface of the adjustment member 14 where the rope guard portion 22 and the rope 2 face each other comes into contact with the rope 2 (S1).

[0041] Next, the adjustment bolt 15 is moved in the axial direction D1 in the direction from the sheave 3 toward the housing 11. As a result, the adjustment bolt 15 is fastened at a position approaching the rope slippage prevention device 12 in the D1 direction of the female screw hole 17. Then, the movement of the adjustment bolt 15 brings the adjustment member 14 and the washer 27, and the washer 27 and the adjustment bolt 15 into contact with each other. Then, the movement of the adjustment bolt 15 pushes the adjustment member inclined portion 23 in the direction D1 toward the housing 11 via the washer 27. Then, the adjustment member inclined portion 23 slides and moves along the inclined surface of the fixed member inclined portion 20, the spring 18 contracts in the radial direction D2, and the adjustment member 14 moves in the radial direction D2 away from the sheave 3. As a result, a gap S is generated between the adjustment member 14 and the rope 2. Specifically, a gap S is generated between the surface of the adjustment member 14 where the rope guard portion 22 and the rope 2 face each other and the rope 2 (S2).

[0042] Thereafter, the adjustment bolt 15 is moved in the axial direction D1 from the sheave 3 toward the housing 11 until the gap S between the adjustment member 14 and the rope 2 becomes the predetermined dimension L of the gap S. As a result, as shown in FIG 7, the gap S is adjusted to the dimension L (S3).

[0043] Here, the position of the projection 100 provided on the fixed member base 19 in the radial direction D2 in the long hole 101 provided on the rope guard part 22 in the process of adjusting the gap with the rope slippage prevention device 12 will be described. In the process of adjusting the gap with the rope slippage prevention device 12, the position of the projection 100 in the radial direction D2 in the long hole 101 is arranged so as to approach the sheave 3 in the radial direction D2. Specifically, in S1, the position of the projection 100 in the radial direction D2 in the long hole 101 is arranged at the farthest position from the sheave 3 in the radial direction D2. In S2, the position of the projection 100 in the radial direction D2 in the long hole 101 is arranged at a position closer to the sheave 3 in the radial direction D2 than in S1. In S3, the position of the projection 100 in the radial direction D2 in the long hole 101 is arranged at the closest position to the sheave 3 in the radial direction D2.

[0044] When the position of the projection 100 in the radial direction D2 within the elongated hole 101 is disposed at the position closest to the sheave 3 in the radial direction D2, the elongated hole 101 cannot move in the radial direction D2 toward the sheave 3. That is, the adjustment member 14 cannot move in the radial direction D2 away from the sheave 3. In this case, the worker cannot move the adjustment bolt 15 in the axial direction D1 from the sheave 3 toward the housing 11. Therefore, the worker can adjust the gap S to the dimension L when the adjustment bolt 15 can no longer move in the axial direction D1 from the sheave 3 toward the housing 11, without having to adjust the dimension L of the gap S while measuring it.

[0045] In addition, the operator moves the adjustment bolt 15 in the axial direction D1 with one hand.

[0046] Here, the head of the adjustment bolt 15 does not face, in the axial direction D1, any member or device of the hoisting machine 1. Therefore, the worker can easily move the head of the adjustment bolt 15 in the axial direction D1 without being aware of contacting the hoisting machine 1, improving workability.

[0047] Furthermore, when the worker moves the adjustment bolt 15 in the axial direction D1, the adjustment member 14 moves in the radial direction D2 due to the movement of the adjustment bolt 15, so the worker does not need to support the adjustment member 14 with the other hand that is not holding the adjustment bolt 15, and can adjust the gap between the rope slippage prevention device 12 using only one hand. This improves workability.

[0048] As described above, the rope slippage prevention device according to the first embodiment comprises a fixed member 13 that is fixed to the housing 11 of the hoist 1 and is inclined in the axial direction D1 of the sheave 3 so that the thickness dimension in the radial direction D2 of the sheave 3 changes as the sheave 3 approaches the sheave 3, and that has a first inclined surface 24 that faces the surface fixed to the housing 11; an adjustment member 14 that has a surface facing the rope 2 and that has a second inclined surface 25 that is inclined and can come into contact with the first inclined surface 24, and that is movable by sliding along the first inclined surface 24; and an adjustment member 14 that is provided opposite the housing 11 and is inclined in the axial direction D1 of the sheave 3 so that the thickness dimension in the radial direction D2 of the sheave 3 changes as the sheave 3 approaches the sheave 3. The adjustment member 14 includes an adjustment bolt 15 that is movable in the axial direction D1 relative to the rope 2, and a washer 27 that is a fastening member interposed between the adjustment member 14 and the adjustment bolt 15. When the second inclined surface 25 is in contact with the first inclined surface 24, the adjustment bolt 15 moves, causing the second inclined surface 25 to slide and move along the first inclined surface 24 via the washer 27 that is the fastening member, thereby adjusting the gap S between the adjustment member 14 including the rope guard portion 22 and the rope 2, and improving workability when making the adjustment member 14 parallel to the rope 2.

[0049] In addition, the rope anti-slip device of embodiment 1 is equipped with spring 18, which is an elastic member provided between fixed member 13 and adjustment member 14, thereby preventing adjustment member 14 from separating from fixed member 13 when adjusting the gap between rope 2 and adjustment member 14.

[0050] In addition, in the rope slippage prevention device of embodiment 1, the fixed member 13 has a contact surface 26 that comes into contact with the adjustment member 14 when the second inclined surface 25 slides and moves along the first inclined surface 24, and a protrusion 100 is provided on the contact surface 26, and the adjustment member 14 is provided with a long hole 101 that engages with the protrusion 100, and the inclination angle of the long hole 101 with respect to the surface where the adjustment member 14 and the rope 2 face each other is the same as the inclination angle of the second inclined surface 25 with respect to the surface where the adjustment member 14 and the rope 2 face each other, so that the adjustment member 14 can be prevented from moving away from the contact surface 26 of the fixed member 13 when adjusting the gap between the rope 2 and the adjustment member 14.

[0051] Furthermore, the rope anti-slip device of embodiment 1 is configured so that when the position of the protrusion 100 in the radial direction D2 within the long hole 101 is positioned at the position closest to the sheave 3 in the radial direction D2, the gap between the adjustment member 14 and the rope 2 becomes a predetermined dimension L.This allows the worker to adjust the gap S to dimension L when the adjustment bolt 15 can no longer move in the axial direction D1 from the sheave 3 toward the housing 11 without having to measure and adjust the dimension L of the gap S, thereby improving workability.

[0052] In the process of adjusting the gap with the rope slippage prevention device 12, the position of the protrusion 100 provided on the fixed member base 19 in the radial direction D2 within the elongated hole 101 provided in the rope guard part 22 is not limited. When it is necessary to adjust the gap S while measuring it, for example, when an operator moves the adjustment bolt 15 in the axial direction D1 from the sheave 3 toward the housing 11, the operator may adjust the gap S by holding a ruler in the other hand that is not holding the adjustment bolt 15 and measuring the dimension of the gap S.

[0053] FIG. 9 is a side view showing a rope slippage prevention device 12 according to a modification of the first embodiment. As shown in FIG. 9, in this modification, a fixing member scale 30, which is a line segment along the axial direction D1, is provided on the side surface of the fixing member inclined portion 20 on the near side in the depth direction D3, and an adjustment member scale 31, which is a line segment along the axial direction D1, is provided on the side surface of the adjusting member inclined portion 23 on the near side in the depth direction D3. The fixing member scale 30 and the adjusting member scale 31 are provided so that their positions in the radial direction D2 coincide when the gap S is a predetermined dimension L. With this configuration, even when it is necessary to adjust the gap S while measuring it, the worker can rotate the adjustment bolt 15 and adjust the gap S by visual inspection without using a ruler, improving workability.

[0054] The inclination shape of the inclined surface of the fixed member inclined portion 20 and the adjustable member inclined portion 23 is not limited. FIG. 10 is a side view showing a rope slippage prevention device 12 according to a modified example of the first embodiment. As shown in FIG. 10, in this modified example, the surface where the fixed member inclined portion 20 and the sheave 3 face each other is inclined in the axial direction D1 so that the thickness dimension in the radial direction D2 increases as the sheave 3 approaches. Also, the surface where the adjustable member inclined portion 23 and the housing 11 face each other is inclined in the axial direction D1 so that the thickness dimension in the radial direction D2 decreases as the sheave 3 approaches. Also, the inclination angle of the long hole 101 with respect to the surface where the rope guard portion 22 and the rope 2 face each other is the same as the inclination angle of the second inclined surface 25 with respect to the surface where the adjustable member 14 and the rope 2 face each other. Therefore, when the adjustable member 14 slides and moves in the radial direction D2 with the inclined surface of the fixed member inclined portion 20 and the inclined surface of the adjustable member inclined portion 23 in contact with each other, the long hole 101 can slide and move in the radial direction D2 in conjunction with the inclined surface of the fixed member inclined portion 20. Therefore, even in this case, it is possible to adjust the gap S so that the adjustment member 14 is parallel to the sheave 3.

[0055] Moreover, the method for adjusting the gap between the rope slippage prevention device 12 according to the first embodiment can make the adjustment member 14 parallel to the rope 2 by including (claim 6).

[0056] It is sufficient that when the adjustment bolt 15 moves in the axial direction D1 with the second inclined surface 25 in contact with the first inclined surface 24, the second inclined surface 25 slides and moves along the first inclined surface 24. For example, the adjustment bolt 15 may fix the adjustment member 14 to the fixed member 13.

[0057] The elastic member is not limited to the spring 18, but may be, for example, a jack bolt.

[0058] The cross-sectional shape of the fixing member base 19 is not limited as long as the rope guard part 22 can be attached via the spring 18 and the fixing member inclined part 20 and the fixing member attachment part 21 can be joined to the two faces of the fixing member base 19 in the depth direction D3, respectively.
