When using rope pull switch systems on conveyors, solid metal eyebolts
spaced equally along the conveyor support the rope and create a catenary
between eyebolts to deflect the rope during pulling; however, misalignment
of the eyebolts along the conveyor can cause friction issues, making the
system challenging to operate and potentially resulting in rope damage or
wear to breaking point if the switch mechanism cannot be reset due to rope
immobility caused by friction. Adjustable mounting positions offer
flexibility for adjusting in two planes to accommodate uneven positioning
of eyebolts along the conveyor or conveyors with radius profiles. Moveable
rollers within the eyebolt structure ensure no loss of movement due to
friction when pulled in any direction. The position of the rollers allows
360-degree contact with the rope within the eyelet of the eyebolt. Friction
is eliminated because the rotational movement at any point of contact
between the rope and a roller.
