ABSTRACT:
An end connector for a wire rope suspension system has a shifting mechanism for minimizing wear and has body members which inhibit undesired binding of loaded wire ropes internal to the connector. Two substantially identical body members are adapted to be preassembled in stages on the wire rope and then coupled together in place in the suspension system. Within each one of the body members is a sheave mounted to a journal bearing. The sheave bears the load of the wire rope on the body and can rotate under load to minimize frictional resistance to desirable displacement of the body piece relative to the rope ends. The end connector with displaceable load-bearing body members minimizes wear and increases the life of wire rope suspension systems.
