Deflection device for a cable comprising a cable securing element, and lifting device therewith

Abstract

The disclosure relates to a deflection device for a cable, comprising a pulley mounting for carrying at least one cable deflection pulley, at least one cable deflection pulley, which is mounted on the pulley mounting so as to be rotatable about a pulley rotational axis, and a cable securing arrangement for securing a correct reeving of a cable on the cable deflection pulley, characterised in that the cable securing arrangement is pivotable relative to the pulley mounting about a pivot axis, in order to switch between a securing position, in which a cable deflected by the cable deflection pulley is secured in the cable deflection pulley, and a release position, in which a cable deflected by the cable deflection pulley is not secured in the cable deflection pulley, wherein the pivot axis extends in parallel with the pulley rotational axis.
