Steel wire ropes - Pulling eyes for rope installation - Types and minimum requirements (ISO 16841:2014)

EN ISO 16841 identifies the different types of pulling eyes that are prepared at, or attached to, a steel wire rope end for connection to another rope when installing a new rope or re-reeving an existing rope on a machine. This International Standard also specifies the minimum requirements for pulling eyes, including their geometry, strength, maximum line pull to which the pulling eye should be subjected and information for use to be provided by the manufacturer. The pulling eyes covered by this International Standard are not intended to be subject to a load when the machine performs a service operation. This International Standard applies to those pulling eyes that are prepared at, or attached to, ends of steel wire ropes conforming to ISO 2408 and ISO 10425. This International Standard does not apply to steel wire ropes with fibre cores. This International Standard does not cover those separate end connection accessories that slide over the end of a rope and comprise an eye and tubular type braided rope, often referred to as a ‘wire rope stocking’ or ‘cable sock’.

Stahldrahtseile - Einziehösen für die Seilmontage - Formen und Mindestanforderungen (ISO 16841:2014)

Diese Internationale Norm legt die verschiedenen Formen von Einziehösen fest, die am Seilende eines Stahl-drahtseils zum Verbinden mit einem anderen Seil angefertigt oder an dieses befestigt werden, wenn ein neues Seil montiert oder das bereits vorhandene Seil an einer Maschine umgeschert wird.
Diese Internationale Norm legt außerdem die Mindestanforderungen an Einziehösen fest, einschließlich deren Geometrie, Festigkeit, maximale Axialzugkraft, der die Einziehöse voraussichtlich ausgesetzt wird sowie vom Hersteller anzugebende Benutzerinformationen.
Die in dieser Internationalen Norm behandelten Einziehösen sind nicht dafür vorgesehen, einer Last ausgesetzt zu werden, während Wartungsarbeiten an der Maschine durchgeführt werden.
Diese Internationale Norm gilt für solche Einziehösen, die an den Seilenden von Stahldrahtseilen nach ISO 2408 und ISO 10425 angefertigt oder an diesen befestigt werden.
Diese Internationale Norm gilt nicht für Stahldrahtseile mit Fasereinlage.
Diese Internationale Norm behandelt keine separaten Zubehörteile für Seilendverbindungen, die über ein Seil-ende geschoben werden und aus einer Öse sowie einem röhrenartig geflochtenen Seil bestehen, häufig als Drahtseilstrumpf bzw. Kabelstrumpf bezeichnet.

Câbles en acier - Anneaux de tirage - Types et exigences minimales (ISO 16841:2014)

L'ISO 16841:2014 définit les différents types d'?ils de tirage qui sont préparés sur l'extrémité d'un câble en acier ou fixés à celle-ci pour le raccorder à un autre câble lors de l'installation d'un nouveau câble ou du mouflage d'un câble existant sur une machine. Elle spécifie également les exigences minimales pour les oeils de tirage, incluant leur géométrie, leur résistance, la force maximale exercée sur l'élingue pour laquelle les oeils de tirage sont destinés à être soumis ainsi que les informations pour l'utilisation à fournir par le fabricant.
Les oeils de traction couverts par l'ISO 16841:2014 ne sont pas destinés à être soumis à une charge lorsque la machine est en fonction.
L'ISO 16841:2014 s'applique aux oeils de tirage préparés ou fixés sur les extrémités de câbles d'acier conformes à l'ISO 2408 et à l'ISO 10425.

Jeklene žične vrvi - Pritrditvena ušesa za vgradnjo vrvi - Vrste in minimalne zahteve (ISO 16841:2014)

Standard EN ISO 16841 določa različne vrste pritrditvenih ušes, ki so pripravljena ali nameščena na konec jeklene žične vrvi, s čimer se med nameščanjem nove vrvi ali navijanjem obstoječe vrvi na napravo poveže drugo vrv. Ta mednarodni standard določa tudi minimalne zahteve za pritrditvena ušesa, vključno z njihovo geometrijo, močjo, največjim žičnim potegom, kateremu je pritrditveno uho lahko izpostavljeno, in informacijami o uporabi, ki jih poda proizvajalec. Pritrditvena ušesa, ki jih zajema ta mednarodni standard, niso namenjena izpostavljanju obremenitvam, ko naprava izvaja servisno operacijo. Ta mednarodni standard se uporablja za tista pritrditvena ušesa, ki so pripravljena ali nameščena na koncih jeklenih žičnih vrvi v skladu s standardoma ISO 2408 in ISO 10425. Ta mednarodni standard se ne uporablja za jeklene žične vrvi z vlaknastimi jedri. Ta mednarodni standard ne zajema pripomočkov z ločenim koncem, ki zdrsijo prek konca vrvi ter obsegajo uho in cevasto pleteno vrv, pogosto imenovano »kabelska vlečna nogavica«.

Standard identifying the different types of pulling eyes which are used to facilitate the installing and
re-reeving of ropes on a machine.
Such pulling eyes, sometimes referred to as beckets, are often used when another rope is required to
pull the new rope into place.
