Lifting apparatus comprising first and second generally vertical masts, an assembly including a frame moveable along the masts, and a load engaging mechanism mounted on the frame, a first brake mechanism which, upon actuation, engages the first mast to prevent downward movement of the frame relative to the first mast, a second brake mechanism which, upon actuation, engages the second mast to prevent downward movement of the frame relative to the second mast, an overspeed mechanism for sensing the downward velocity of the assembly and for actuating the first brake mechanism when the overspeed mechanism senses that the downward velocity of the assembly exceeds a predetermined value, a first electrical device for providing an electrical signal when the first brake mechanism is actuated, and a second electrical device for actuating the second brake mechanism in response to the electrical signal.

La présente invention se rapporte à un engin de levage comportant un premier et un deuxième mâts de levage essentiellement verticaux, une structure se déplaçant le long des mâts de levage, un mécanisme de préhension des charges monté sur la structure, un premier mécanisme de freinage dont la mise en oeuvre empêche le mouvement descendant de la structure le long du premier mât de levage, un deuxième mécanisme de freinage dont la mise en oeuvre empêche le mouvement descendant de la structure le long du deuxième mât de levage, un dispositif de survitesse servant à capter la vitesse descendante de la structure et à mettre en oeuvre le premier mécanisme de freinage lorsque le dispositif de survitesse détecte une vitesse de déplacement dépassant une valeur prédéterminée, un premier dispositif électrique servant à produire un signal électrique lorsque le premier mécanisme de freinage est actionné, et un deuxième dispositif électrique servant à actionner le deuxième mécanisme de freinage en réponse à un signal électrique.
