peer agreement (net): +1Another reference Explanation: Good luck! MOLINETE: Se llama también maquinilla de levar, y sirve para levar la cadena del ancla. Pueden ser movidos por energía eléctrica, hidráulica o manualmente. Su pieza fundamental es el barbotén, que es una corona con unas muescas que hacen que al enrollarse la cadena, ésta se acople perfectamente; va provisto de un freno. En este aparato puede dejarse libre el eje, soltando su embrague, lo que hace arriar el ancla y bajar rápidamente la cadena, en caso de que fondeemos. Cuando viremos la cadena, al objeto de levar el ancla, embragaremos la maquinilla. Las maquinillas de levar suelen llevar el cabirón, al objeto de poder utilizarlas en líneas de fondeo que están constituidas de cabo. (http://www.masmar.com/articulos/art/4,189,3.html) |
