Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Halteeinrichtung für einen Kite nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1.The present invention relates to a holding device for a kite according to the preamble of
Die
Das bekannte Steuersystem gemäß der
Es ist daher Aufgabe der vorliegende Erfindung, eine Halteeinrichtung für einen Kite zu schaffen, die eine größere Sicherheit für den Fahrer in Gefahrensituationen schafft und leicht zu betätigen ist.It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a holding device for a kite, which provides greater safety for the driver in dangerous situations and is easy to operate.
Diese Aufgabe wird mit einer Halteeinrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 gelöst.This object is achieved with a holding device with the features of
Erfindungsgemäß umfasst die Halteeinrichtung einen Überlastschutz, um bei Überschreiten einer Kraft zwischen der Leine und dem Kopplungselement die Kraftübertragung zwischen der Leine und dem Kopplungselement zu unterbrechen. Dadurch kann bei plötzlich auftretender Zugbelastung zumindest teilweise eine Trennung zwischen dem Fahrer und dem Kite bewirkt werden, was schwerwiegende Unfälle, gerade durch Windböen, verhindern kann, denn durch die Entkopplung zumindest eines Teils der Leinen zwischen Kite und dem Fahrer wirdAccording to the invention, the holding device comprises an overload protection in order to interrupt the transmission of force between the line and the coupling element when a force between the line and the coupling element is exceeded. This can be at least partially causes a separation between the driver and the kite at sudden tensile load, which can prevent serious accidents, especially by gusts of wind, because by decoupling at least a portion of the lines between the kite and the driver
Die
Die
verhindert, dass der Fahrer gegen seinen Willen weggeschleudert wird und dadurch einer Verletzungsgefahr durch Strandbewuchs, Bebauung oder andere Gegenstände ausgesetzt ist. Mindestens eine Sicherheitsleine kann auch nach der Trennung der Halteeinrichtung mit dem Fahrer verbunden bleiben, damit der Kite nicht verloren geht.Prevents the driver from being thrown against his will and thus being exposed to the risk of injury from beach vegetation, buildings or other objects. At least one safety line can remain connected to the driver even after the separation of the holding device, so that the kite is not lost.
Für einen kompakten Aufbau der Halteeinrichtung ist der Überlastschutz vorzugsweise an dem Schieber angeordnet und kann bei Überschreiten einer Last den Hebel freigeben, damit dieser verschwenken kann. Durch Verschenken des Hebels kann dann eine Öse von dem Hebel abgezogen werden, um ein Trennen von dem Kopplungselement oder ein Öffnen des Kopplungselements zu bewirken.For a compact construction of the holding device, the overload protection is preferably arranged on the slide and can release the lever when a load is exceeded so that it can pivot. By giving away the lever, an eyelet can then be withdrawn from the lever in order to effect a separation from the coupling element or an opening of the coupling element.
Vorzugsweise weist der Überlastschutz ein Sperrelement auf, das ein Verschwenken des Hebels bis zu einer gewissen Kraft blockiert. Die Kräfte am Hebel sind wegen der Übersetzung der Kräfte deutlich geringer als an dem Kopplungselement, an dem der Fahrer eingehängt ist. Durch die Anordnung des Sperrelementes an dem Hebel wird daher die Materialbelastung an dem Überlastschutz vermindert.Preferably, the overload protection on a blocking element which blocks a pivoting of the lever to a certain force. The forces on the lever are significantly lower because of the translation of forces than on the coupling element to which the driver is mounted. Due to the arrangement of the blocking element on the lever, the material load on the overload protection is therefore reduced.
Das am Schieber angeordnete Sperrelement kann in einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung einen Sperrhebel aufweisen, der durch eine Feder in eine Position zur Verriegelung des Hebels des Auslösemechanismus vorgespannt ist. Wenn auf den Hebel durch eine hohe Zugkraft an dem Kopplungselement und dadurch ein hohes Drehmoment in Öffnungsrichtung wirkt, kann der Hebel den Sperrhebel gegen die Kraft der Feder in Öffnungsrichtung bewegen und dadurch eine automatische Öffnung des Auslösemechanismus bewirken. Der Sperrhebel kann dabei in den Schieber integriert sein, so dass sich ein sehr kompakter Aufbau ergibt und die für den Fahrer bekannte Funktionalität der Entkopplung durch Verschieben des Schiebers beibehalten wird. Der Sperrhebel ist vorzugsweise an oder in dem Schieber drehbar gelagert, wobei die Lagerung des Sperrhebels zur Gewährleistung der Funktionssicherheit weitgehend geschützt angeordnet ist, insbesondere im Hinblick auf Verunreinigungen.The blocking element arranged on the slide can have, in an advantageous embodiment, a locking lever which is biased by a spring into a position for locking the lever of the triggering mechanism. When acting on the lever by a high tensile force on the coupling element and thereby a high torque in the opening direction, the lever can move the locking lever against the force of the spring in the opening direction, thereby causing an automatic opening of the trigger mechanism. The locking lever can be integrated in the slide, so that there is a very compact design and the well-known for the driver functionality of the decoupling is maintained by moving the slider. The locking lever is preferably rotatably mounted on or in the slide, wherein the storage of the locking lever is arranged largely protected to ensure reliability, in particular with regard to impurities.
Gemäß einer weiteren Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist das Sperrelement durch ein Schaltelement verriegelbar. Die Verriegelung kann beispielsweise durch einen Stift, Drehschalter oder eine Klammer erfolgen, die das Sperrelement in einer vorbestimmten Position an dem Schieber fixiert und ein Verschwenken des Hebels in der Ausgangsposition des Schiebers durch das Sperrelement blockiert.According to a further embodiment of the invention, the blocking element can be locked by a switching element. The locking can be done for example by a pin, rotary switch or a clamp which fixes the blocking element in a predetermined position on the slider and blocks pivoting of the lever in the starting position of the slider by the blocking element.
Dadurch ist gewährleistet, dass der Fahrer durch Bewegen des Schaltelementes den Überlastschutz außer Kraft setzt, beispielsweise weil er sich in ausreichender Entfernung vom Ufer befindet und nun Sprünge durchführen will, bei denen eine Kraft oberhalb der Auslösekraft für den Überlastschutz auf den Auslösemechanismus wirkt. Der Fahrer kann somit entscheiden, ob ein automatisches Entriegeln über den Überlastschutz zugelassen wird, beispielsweise wenn sich der Kite in der Nähe des Strandes befindet, oder ob der Überlastschutz zur Ausübung des Sports verriegelt wird.This ensures that the driver overrides the overload protection by moving the switching element, for example, because he is at a sufficient distance from the shore and now wants to perform jumps in which a force above the triggering force for the overload protection acts on the trigger mechanism. The driver can thus decide whether to allow automatic unlocking via the overload protection, for example, when the kite is near the beach, or if the overload protection is locked to exercise the sport.
Vorzugsweise ist die Kraft zum Auslösen des Überlastschutzes verstellbar. Dies ermöglicht eine Anpassung an das Gewicht des jeweiligen Fahrers, insbesondere soll der Überlastschutz verhindern, dass Anfänger in die Luft geschleudert werden. Dadurch muss die Kraft zum Auslösen des Überlastschutzes an das jeweilige Gewicht des Fahrers angepasst werden.Preferably, the force for triggering the overload protection is adjustable. This allows adaptation to the weight of the respective driver, in particular the overload protection is intended to prevent beginners being thrown into the air. As a result, the force for triggering the overload protection must be adapted to the respective weight of the driver.
Für die Einstellung des Überlastschutzes ist in einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung ein verstellbarer Anschlag vorgesehen, um die Ausgangsposition des Schiebers relativ zu dem Führungselement einzustellen. Denn dann kann eine Verstellung der Hebelverhältnisse des Hebels und/oder des Sperrhebels vorgenommen werden, die ein leichteres oder schwereres Auslösen des Überlastschutzes bewirken. Der verstellbare Anschlag kann dabei an dem Schieber fixiert und an dem Führungsteil abgestützt sein oder umgekehrt an dem Führungsteil fixiert und an dem Schieber abgestützt sein. In jedem Fall wird die Ausgangsposition zwischen dem Schieber und dem Führungsteil durch den verstellbaren Anschlag verändert.For the adjustment of the overload protection, an adjustable stop is provided in a preferred embodiment to adjust the starting position of the slider relative to the guide element. Because then an adjustment of the lever ratios of the lever and / or the locking lever can be made, which cause a lighter or heavier triggering of the overload protection. The adjustable stop can be fixed to the slider and supported on the guide member or vice versa fixed to the guide member and supported on the slider. In any case, the starting position between the slider and the guide member is changed by the adjustable stop.
Der verstellbare Anschlag kann einen Gewindebolzen aufweisen, der in einer Gewindehülse gelagert ist. Dann kann durch Drehen des Gewindebolzens ein stirnseitiger Anschlag an dem Gewindebolzen verstellt werden. Der Gewindebolzen kann alternativ drehfest am Schieber oder am Führungsteil geführt sein und über eine drehbar gelagerte Mutter oder eine Verstellschraube bewegbar sein. Die Mutter kann dabei an dem Schieber oder am Führungsteil drehbar gelagert aber in axiale Richtung festgelegt sein, beispielsweise in einer entsprechenden Aufnahme oder Aussparung, wobei die Seitenwände der Aufnahme als Anschlag wirken. Der Gewindeboizen kann dabei stirnseitig eine Nut oder eine Profilierung aufweisen, die für eine drehfeste Lagerung des Gewindebolzens am Führungsteil in der Ausgangsposition sorgt. Auch andere Verstellmechanismen können eingesetzt werden, um die Auslösekraft des Überlastschutzes einzustellen. Beispielsweise kann am Schieber ein verstellbarerer Anschlag über einen Arretierstift, ein Unterlegelement oder einen Keil in einer vorbestimmten Position festgelegt werden.The adjustable stop may have a threaded bolt which is mounted in a threaded sleeve. Then can be adjusted by turning the threaded bolt an end stop on the threaded bolt. The threaded bolt may alternatively be performed rotatably on the slider or on the guide member and be movable via a rotatably mounted nut or an adjusting screw. The nut can be rotatably mounted on the slider or on the guide member but be fixed in the axial direction, for example in a corresponding receptacle or recess, wherein the side walls of the receptacle act as a stop. The taps may have frontally a groove or a profiling, which ensures a non-rotatable mounting of the threaded bolt on the guide member in the starting position. Other adjustment mechanisms can be used to adjust the release force of the overload protection. For example, on the slider an adjustable stop via a locking pin, a Unterlegelement or a wedge to be set in a predetermined position.
Für konstante Hebelverhältnisse kann der Hebel drehbar an dem Führungselement gelagert sein. Dabei ist eine stabile Lagerung insbesondere dann gewährleistet, wenn das Führungselement aus einem Metallblech oder Edelstahl hergestellt ist. Der Schieber kann dabei eine Öffnung aufweisen, durch die das Führungselement durchgeführt ist, um eine exakte Führung des Schiebers zu gewährleisten.For constant leverage ratios, the lever may be rotatably mounted on the guide element. In this case, a stable storage is ensured in particular when the guide element is made of a metal sheet or stainless steel.

Eine Halteeinrichtung 1 umfasst ein Kopplungselement 2, auch chicken-loop genannt, das mit einem Haken eines Trapezes verbindbar ist. Hierfür ist das Kopplungselement 2 als Schlaufe ausgebildet, in die ein Trapezhaken eingehängt und über einen Rohrabschnitt 3 gesichert werden kann. Das Kopplungselement 2 ist an einem Führungselement 4 aus einem Metallblech oder Edelstahl angeordnet, an dem ein Schieber 5 verschiebbar gelagert ist. Das Führungselement 4 ist auf der zum Kopplungselement 2 abgewandten Seite über mindestens eine Leine 6 bzw. ein Seil, insbesondere die Frontleinen, mit einem Kite verbunden.A holding
Das Kopplungselement 2 ist an einem Ende über eine Achse 7 gelenkig an dem Führungselement 4 gelagert. An dem gegenüberliegenden Ende des Kopplungselementes 2 ist eine Öse 11 vorgesehen, in die ein Hebel 10 eingreift. Der Hebel 10 ist um eine Achse 9 an dem Führungselement 4 drehbar gelagert.The
Der Schieber 5 ist über ein Federelement 25 in eine Ausgangsposition vorgespannt, in der der Schieber 5 über einen Anschlag an einem Gegenanschlag an dem Führungselement 4 abgestützt ist. Das Federelement 25 ist als elastisches Gummiband ausgebildet, das durch eine Öse 24 benachbart zu dem Kopplungselement 2 durchgeführt ist und an gegenüberliegenden Seiten an dem Schieber 5 festgelegt ist, beispielsweise über Klemmen, die an der zu der Leine 6 gewandten Seite im Schieber 5 fixiert sind.The
Der Schieber 5 besteht vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff und ist aus zwei Schalen gebildet, die über ein oder mehrere Befestigungsmittel aneinander gehalten sind. In dem Schieber 5 ist eine Durchgangsöffnung ausgebildet, durch die ein stegförmiger Abschnitt des Führungselementes 4 durchgeführt ist. Der Schieber 5 kann für ein leichtgängiges Bewegen über Gleitschuhe an dem Führungselement 4 geführt sein.The
In
Der Sperrhebel 13 ist dabei in der in
An dem Schieber 5 ist ferner ein verstellbarer Anschlag in Form eines Gewindebolzens 20 vorgesehen, der mit einem Gewindeabschnitt in Eingriff mit einem Schraubengewinde einer senkrecht zu dem Gewindebolzen 20 ausgerichteten Verstellschraube 21 steht. Die Verstelfschraube 21 ist in einem Halter 26 drehbar gelagert aber in axiale Richtung fixiert, so dass durch Drehen der Verstellschraube 21 eine Bewegung des Gewindebolzens 20 in dessen axiale Richtung bewirkt wird. Der Halter 26 ist dabei zwischen zwei Gehäusehälften 50 und 51 oder nur in einer Gehäusehälfte 50 bzw. 51 des Schiebers 5 gehalten. Der Gewindebolzen 20 liegt mit einem Endabschnitt 22 an einer Anlagefläche 23 des Führungselementes 4 an.On the
An dem Endabschnitt 22 kann auch eine Nut ausgebildet sein, in die ein Steg mit der Anlagefläche 23 des Führungselementes 4 eingreift, so dass der Gewindebolzen 20 in der Ausgangsposition drehfest angeordnet ist. Dann kann statt der Verstellschraube 21 und dem Halter 26 ein Mutter, beispielsweise eine Rändelmutter an dem Schieber 5 montiert sein. Durch Drehen der Mutter wird dann erreicht, dass der Gewindebolzen 20 relativ zur Mutter verschoben wird und damit gleichzeitig die Ausgangsposition des Schiebers 5 verstellt wird.At the
Für eine Entkopplung des Kraftübertragungsweges zwischen der Leine 6 und dem Kopplungselement 2 kann der Schieber 5 in bekannter Weise entsprechend dem Pfeil 27 gegen die Kraft des Federelementes 25 verschoben werden. Gelangt der Schieber 5 in eine Position beabstandet von der Ausgangsposition, wird der Hebel 10 freigegeben, indem die Außenseite des Hebels 10 nicht mehr an dem Sperrelement 13 anliegt. Der Hebel 10 kann dann aufgrund der Kraft an dem Kopplungselement 2 um die Achse 9 verschwenken, so dass das Kopplungselement 2 von dem Trapezhaken gelöst wird. Nach Betätigung des Schiebers 5 wird dieser durch das Federelement 25 wieder in Ausgangsposition zurückbewegt.For a decoupling of the power transmission path between the
Um den Auslösemechanismus nach einer manuellen Auslösung wieder zusammenzusetzen, wird der Schieber 5 nach oben verschoben und der Hebel 10 mit der Spitze 12 durch die Öse 11 eingefädelt. Anschließend wird der Hebel 10 wieder zu dem Führungselement 4 verschwenkt und der Schieber 5 in die Ausgangsposition zurückbewegt, so dass das Sperrelement 13 an der Außenseite des Hebels 12 angeordnet ist.To reassemble the trigger mechanism after a manual release, the
Der Schieber 5 ist entsprechend
Falls eine zu hohe Zugkraft durch die Leine 6 auf das Kopplungselement 2 übertragen wird und dadurch die Gefahr besteht, dass der Fahrer unbeabsichtigt in die Luft geschleudert wird, wirkt der Sperrhebel 13 als Überlastschutz für eine Entkopplung des Kraftübertragungsweges. Bei einer Überlast drückt der Hebel 10 den Sperrhebel 13 nach außen, bis der Hebel 10 frei verschwenken kann und ein Abziehen der Öse 11von dem Hebel 10 ermöglicht wird. Dann kann das Führungselement 4 durch die Zugkraft an der Leine 6 zum Kite hinbewegt werden, was schlagartig die Zugkräfte durch den Kite verringert. Der Kite kann dabei über eine Sicherheitsleine mit dem Fahrer verbunden bleiben.If too high a tensile force is transmitted through the

Das Drehmoment M1 an dem Hebel 10 wird auf den Sperrhebel 13 übertragen, auf den das Drehmoment M3 wirkt. Das Drehmoment M3 entspricht der Kraft an der Spitze 12 des Hebels 10, die die Kraft auf den Sperrhebel 13 nach außen einleitet sowie der Hebellän.ge L3, die durch die Strecke zwischen dem Krafteinleitungspunkt durch die Spitze 12 des Hebels 10 sowie der Drehachse 14 des Sperrhebels 13 bestimmt ist. Ist das Drehmoment durch den Hebel 10 an dem Sperrhebel 13 so groß, dass die Vorspannung der Feder 15 nicht mehr ausreicht, um den Sperrhebel 13 in der Position zu halten, verschwenkt der Sperrhebel 13 nach außen und gibt somit den Hebel 10 frei, was eine Entkopplung bewirkt.The torque M 1 on the
Um die Kraft zum Auslösen des Übertastschutzes zu verändern, kann die Ausgangsposition des Schiebers 5 verändert werden. Hierfür wird durch Drehen an der Verstellschraube 21 der Gewindebolzen 20 in Bewegungsrichtung des Schiebers 5 verstellt, so dass der Schieber 5 relativ zu dem Führungselement 4 bewegt wird. Dadurch kann eine Ausgangsposition eingestellt werden, beispielsweise eine Ausgangsposition, wie sie in
In
In den gezeigten Ausführungsbeispielen ist an dem Führungselement 4 nur auf einer Seite ein Hebel 10 angeordnet, der mit einer Öse 11 des Kopplungselements 2 verbunden ist. Es ist natürlich auch möglich, an gegenüberliegenden Seiten des Führungselementes 4 jeweils einen schwenkbar gelagerten Hebel 10 vorzusehen, so dass beide Seiten des Kopplungselements 2 mit einer Öse 11 an einem Hebel 10 festgelegt sind. Je nachdem, auf welcher Seite eine höhere Kraft wirkt, wird eine Auslösung durch den Überlastschutz bewirkt. Die Anordnung der beiden Hebel 10 kann dann symmetrisch zu einer Mittelebene erfolgen.In the embodiments shown, a
Zum Verstellen der Ausgangsposition des Schiebers 5 relativ zu dem Führungselement 4 können auch andere Vefstellelemente vorgesehen sein, beispielsweise kann ein Gewindebolzen an dem Führungselement 4 festgelegt sein, der einen Anschlag für den Schieber 5 ausbildet. Statt einem Gewindebolzen kann auch ein einsteckbarer Stift vorgesehen sein, der in entsprechende Öffnungen an dem verstellbaren Anschlag eingesteckt werden, um eine Ausgangsposition des Schiebers 5 festzulegen. Auch andere Elemente, wie verstellbare Abstandshalter, können an dem Führungselement 4 zur Einstellung der Ausgangsposition vorgesehen sein.To adjust the starting position of the

An dem Schieber 5 ist ein Gehäuse 70 festgelegt, in dem eine Feder 15' aufgenommen ist. Der an einer Achse 14 drehbar gelagerte Sperrhebel 13 besitzt auf der zum Hebel 10 abgewandten Seite einen Ausleger 13', der durch eine Aussparung in das Gehäuse 70 eingreift und an dem ein Ende 17' der Feder 15' abgestützt ist. Ein gegenüberliegendes Ende 16' der Feder 15' drückt auf eine scheibenförmige Auflage 74, die an einem Gewindebolzen 72 anliegt. Der Gewindebolzen 72 ist in einer Gewindebohrung 71 an dem Gehäuse 70 gehalten und weist einen Kopfabschnitt 73 auf, beispielsweise einen Imbus, der über ein Werkzeug drehbar ist, um die Vorspannung der Feder 15' zu verstellen. Die Feder 15' ist dabei als Schraubenfeder ausgebildet und in dem im Wesentlichen zylindrischen Gehäuse 70 geführt.On the
Für die Auslösung des Kopplungselementes 2 bei einer Überlast, verschwenkt der Hebel 10 im Uhrzeigersinn und dreht dabei den Sperrhebel 13 gegen den Uhrzeigersinn, so dass der Ausleger 13' die Feder 15' zusammendrückt. Gelangt der Sperrhebel 13 in eine Winkelposition von etwa 20° bis 35° aus der Ausgangsposition, wird der Hebel 10 freigegeben und entriegelt. Die Schwenkbewegung des Sperrhebels 13 kann durch einen Anschlag begrenzt sein.For the release of the
Um die Federkraft auf das Gewicht des jeweiligen Fahrers einstellen zu können, kann durch den Gewindebolzen 72 die Länge der auf Druck beanspruchten Feder 15' verändert werden. An dem Gehäuse 70 kann dabei ein Sichtfenster mit Markierungen angeordnet sein, damit von außen sichtbar die Position der Auflage 74' bzw. des Endes 16' verstellt werden kann, wobei die Markierungen schon das Gewicht des Fahrers anzeigen können. Dadurch kann auch bei einem Wechsel des Steuersystems an einen anderen Fahrer eine schnelle Anpassung der Auslösekraft für den Überlastschutz erfolgen.In order to adjust the spring force to the weight of the respective driver, can be changed by the threaded
Vorzugsweise ist der Ausleger 13' integral mit dem Sperrhebel 13 ausgebildet, wobei zur Vermeidung einer Berührung mit dem Führungselement 4 der Ausleger 13' aus der Ebene des Führungselementes 4 herausgebogen ist, also in
Um bei dem in
Das Gehäuse 70 kann auch integral mit dem Schieber 5 ausgebildet sein, um die Anzahl der Bauteile zu verringern.The
In den gezeigten Ausführungsbeispielen ist das Kopplungselement 2 als Schlaufe ausgebildet, das direkt mit dem Führungselement 4 gekoppelt ist. Es ist natürlich auch möglich, das Kopplungselement 2 über weitere Verbindungsglieder mit dem Führungselement 4 zu koppeln. Insbesondere kann das als Schlaufe ausgebildete Kopplungselement 2 zunächst mit einer Leine verbunden sein, die dann wiederum über eine Öse oder Schlaufe mit dem Hebel 10 verbunden ist. Dann kann beispielsweise die Drehachse 9 des Hebels 10 an dem Führungselement 4 auch an einer anderen Stelle positioniert werden, um eine Schrägstellung des Führungselementes 4 bei höherer Belastung zu vermeiden. Beispielsweise kann dann eine mit dem Kopplungselement verbundene Öse etwa mittig an dem Führungselement angeordnet sein.In the exemplary embodiments shown, the
Ferner kann der Überlastschutz auch getrennt von dem Schieber 5 ausgebildet sein, insbesondere kann im Bereich der Leine 6 oder zwischen Kopplungselement 2 und dem Führungselement 4 ein separater Überlastschutz eingesetzt werden, um bei einer zu großen Zugbelastung eine Trennung zwischen Fahrer und Kite zu bewirken.Furthermore, the overload protection can also be formed separately from the
In dem gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel ist das Verriegelungselement 18 mit einem Stift 31 ausgebildet, das in einer ersten Position den Sperrhebel 13 fixiert und in einer zweiten Position freigibt. Es sind auch anders gestaltete Verriegelungselemente einsetzbar, die in eine Öffnung an dem Sperrhebel 13 eingreifen oder an dessen Außenseite anliegen.In the embodiment shown, the locking
Zum Verstellen der Auslösekraft des Überlastschutzes kann zusätzlich oder alternativ die Vorspannung der Feder 15 verändert werden, beispielsweise in dem die Lagerung des Endes 16 der Feder 15 verstellt wird, um die Feder zu spannen oder zu entspannen. Ferner können zur Änderung der Auslösekraft natürlich Federn 15 unterschiedlicher Stärke und/oder Hebel10 bzw. Sperrhebel 13 unterschiedlicher Länge eingesetzt werden.To adjust the release force of the overload protection, in addition or alternatively, the bias of the
