ABSTRACT:
A pin rope control device, in which the pulley provided for the rope is completely free to rotate at all times without any mechanical engagement of the pulley at any time. Remote movement sensing devices are provided along side the pulley, which detect movement of the pulley and deliver a predetermined sequence of signals. Suitable circuitry is provided to receive the sequence of signals, and to activate the rope tensioning motor to reset the pins. In one embodiment, a magnet is mounted to rotate in unison with the pulley and actuate in sequence a pair of stationarily mounted reed switches to trigger operation of the motor. In a second embodiment, the sensing device is in the form of a photocell.
