Detailed description of preferred embodiments The present invention provides a new cable reel drum brake/stop/lock, and its cable reel. It is easy to utilize, and has new applications for releasing and braking the reel. Moreover, the present invention relates to a cable reel provided with the cable drum brake member. In the Fig. 1 to Fig. 4 depicted embodiment, the cable drum brake slide hole is provided with a side opening, where the cable can be inserted, and removed from the cable drum brake. Another embodiment provides that the cable drum slide hole is closed, thus the electric power plug has to be mounted when attaching the cable drum brake to the cable reel stand, preferably at the assembling of the cable reel.
Another embodiment provides that the cable itself can be squeezed, by the slide hole being made flexible enough. The above embodiments are not depicted in the attached Fig. 1 to Fig. 4, plausible within the scope of the attached claims.
With reference to Fig. 1, illustrating a cable reel drum 34, Fig. 4, brake member 10 in a front perspective elevation view, in accordance with the present invention. The cable reel 34 drum brake member 10 assembled in one piece in this exemplifying embodiment, but can also be manufactured in one solid piece, which has an elongated cable 40, Fig. 4, slide/guide hole/slit/slot 12 with an opening 20 providing that the slide hole 12 has a spring action when pressured, through engaging with the cable drum 36, the opening 20 provides insertion of the cable 40, and the opening 20 has a size and shape to prevent the cable 40 from being detached from the slide hole 12.
An elongated through hole 14 in the cable drum brake 10 is adapted to attach to a cable reel stand 38, Fig. 4, to be moved back and forth towards and backwards from the cable drum 36, respectively in a braked and open/unlocked mode for the cable drum 36, respectively so that the cable 40 power plug 42 can be locked in a determined position, and opened for unwinding. The through hole 14 is herein depicted as round, but can also be somewhat open at its bottom to be squeezed/pushed over the handle 38, Fig. 4. Anyway, the cable drum brake member 10 is pivotally movable around the handle axis.
Furthermore, at least one aperture 16, 18, which engages with at least one of the cable drums 36 two flanges provides a braked position to the cable drum 36. Thus squeezing the electric power plug 42 to stay in its intended position, when the braking member 10 is inclined towards the cable drum 36 through at least one of a friction between the cable drum 36 through the aperture 16, 18 and the cable drum 36 flanges, and a wedged position to the cable drum 36 flanges. Two holes 22 are arranged to fit a locking pin 44, screw, or the like attached on the handle 38 in the open mode of the brake member 10, when attached to the handle 38. The slits 24 fit the pin 44 in the locked mode of the handle 10, when attached to the handle 38. This is better understood with reference to Fig. 3, and the blow up of the pin in Fig. 4.
In one embodiment of the present invention a brake member 10 by pulling the cable power plug 42, it releases its braking position due to the friction and/or force applied to between the slide hole 12, and at least the cable 40, and the end arrangement, for instance a plastic/rubber bushing of an electric plug 42 for electrical power sockets or the like, for example as seen in Fig.4, forcing the brake member 10 to move backwards from the cable drum 36 to unlock it.
