Abstract
A rope guiding device used in connection with the rope hoist to guide a hoisting rope. The inventive rope guiding device of a rope hoist for guiding a hoisting rope on a rope drum which rope drum may be adapted to rotate in order to wind the hoisting rope around the rope drum or off the rope drum to hoist and lower a load adapted on the hoisting rope, the rope guiding device comprising at least one guiding element to guide the hoisting rope of the rope hoist, and a screw to move said at least one guiding element, is characterized in that wherein the rope guiding device is supported to the body of a trolley of the rope hoist by means of a support arrangement which support arrangement comprises first pivotings and second pivotings adapted to a substantially 90-degree angle in relation to said first pivotings.

A rope guiding device of a rope hoist for guiding a hoisting rope on a rope drum, wherein the rope drum may be adapted to rotate in order to wind the hoisting rope around the rope drum or off the rope drum to hoist and lower a load adapted on the hoisting rope, the rope guiding device comprising:
- at least one guiding element to guide the hoisting rope of the rope hoist;
- and
- a screw to move said at least one guiding element,
- wherein the rope guiding device is supported to a body of a trolley of the rope hoist by a support arrangement, the support arrangement comprising:
- first pivotings;
- and
- second pivotings adapted to a substantially 90-degree angle in relation to said first pivotings,
- wherein said first pivotings comprise an outer frame symmetrically adapted in relation to joint shafts of the first pivotings, and an inner frame, symmetrically adapted inside said outer frame in relation to the joint shaft of the first pivotings, the inner frames supported to the outer frames by flexible support elements.
