ABSTRACT:
Arrangement for winding of an electric cable which arrangement comprises a rotatable drum from which the cable is arranged to be wound off manually, and an electric motor (M) arranged to be connected to a first circuit for driving the drum in the winding direction and arranged to be rotated by the drum during unwinding of the cable. A second circuit (M,1,3,4) comprises besides the motor (M) also a contact means (1) arranged to be closed when the motor (M) is inoperative. During unwinding of the cable from the drum the motor generates a braking moment which increases with the speed of rotation of the motor.
The second circuit preferably comprises a voltage dependent switch (3), preferably a Zener-diode, which is arranged to be closed when the voltage generated by the motor (M) during the unwinding exceeds a value corresponding to a predetermined speed of rotation of the drum and, as a consequence, of the motor.
