ABSTRACT:
A wire chain connector for an anchor line has a swivel coupled to a rope socket via a link, and a ball adapter mounted on the outer periphery of the link. A wire rope groove is formed in the inner surface of a peripheral groove in a sheave to allow a wire rope to pass along it. A chain pocket is formed in the central portion of the peripheral groove in the sheave to allow a chain to pass along it. A connector groove is formed in the outer surface of the peripheral groove in the sheave to allow the anchor line to pass along it. The body of the swivel and the ball adapter are so sized that they can be seated in the connector groove.
