Provided herein is a lanyard attachment for storing a lanyard. The lanyard attachment has a housing, means for releasably storing a lanyard in the housing, for example a rotatable spool, a guide at the proximal end of the housing to guide the lanyard into the housing and a holder at the distal end from which an object is suspended. Also provided is a retractable lanyard in which a cord or lanyard is stored in a coiled configuration within the housing and a system for releasably storing a lanyard in the lanyard attachment.

The present disclosure relates to a hydraulic system including a variable displacement hydraulic motor for lifting and lowering a load. The hydraulic motor has a high operating speed and a low operating speed. The system also includes an actuator for controlling whether the hydraulic motor is operating at the high or low speed, and a pressure sensor for sensing when a system pressure corresponding to the hydraulic motor exceeds a threshold pressure value. The system further includes a speed control system that controls the actuator such that the hydraulic motor is prevented from operating at the first operating speed when the system pressure exceeds the threshold pressure value.

A system for servicing a pulverizer includes a pulverizer having a housing, a journal assembly pivotally connected to the housing, a grinding mechanism operatively connected to the journal assembly, and an opening within the housing adjacent to the journal assembly and providing an access point to an interior of the housing, and a hoist apparatus mounted to the housing. The hoist apparatus includes a frame assembly received about the opening in the housing, a sheave assembly including a plurality of sheaves supported by the frame assembly, a motor operatively connected to one of the plurality of sheaves, and a cable received by the sheave assembly. The motor is operable to at least one of retract the cable through the sheave assembly to rotate a component out of the pulverizer through the opening and controllably let out the cable to rotate the component into the pulverizer through the opening.

An aircraft provided with a wing and a winch device. The winch device is provided with a hoist device that includes a storage drum and a motor member for winding a suspension member around the storage drum and for unwinding said suspension member off the storage drum. The hoist device is surrounded at least in part by a fairing of the winning, said hoist device being arranged in an inside volume of the wing at least in a position referred to as the “streamlined” position.

A winch is disclosed having a motor, a spool rotated by the motor, and a line carried by the spool. Rotating the spool in a first, or winding direction causes the line to wind around the spool, and rotating the spool in a second, or unwinding direction causes the line to unwind from the spool. The winch also includes a tensioning device spaced apart from the spool, which tensioning device comprises a tensioning wheel that engages the line and is configured to apply tension to the line as it is being unwound.
