Title: |
Lift Assembly with Load Cells |
Abstract: |
A lift assembly comprises a base, a drive mechanism, a flexible drive
element extending from the drive mechanism along a fleet axis, and a
sheave directing the drive element from the fleet axis to an output axis.
The sheave is coupled to the base at a first sheave mount aligned with
the fleet axis. The assembly can further include a second sheave mount
aligned with the fleet axis and configured to be coupled to the sheave to
allow the sheave to be de-coupled from the first sheave mount and coupled
to the second sheave mount, resulting in substantially no change in a
fleet angle of the fleet axis. Preferably, the sheave is positioned on a
first side of the fleet axis when coupled to the first sheave mount, and
the sheave is positioned on a second side of the fleet axis (e.g.,
opposite the first side) when coupled to the second sheave mount.
