ABSTRACT:
A load-transfer device comprising at least one rotatable wheel having a series of equally spaced peripheral recesses, a guide element mounted at a peripheral part of the wheel, and a load connection element for attachment of a load to the device. The wheel and guide member have cooperating portions allowing rotation of the wheel about its axis relative to the guide member to allow transversely extending support elements, which the device encounters in use, to pass through the device in one of said recesses as the wheel rotates relative to the guide member. In order to enable the device to withstand relatively heavy loading, interengaging plug and socket portions are provided between the connection element and an adjacent face of the wheel.
