Abstract:
A support device for a cableway comprising a plurality of longitudinally extending thread elements positioned at a distance from each other and transversely extending thread elements connecting the longitudinally extending thread elements, wherein the support device is connectable with the cableway for forming a support surface for cables attached to the cableway and being branched off downwardly therefrom in order to define the radius of curvature of the branched off cables, the support device comprising a support element constituted by a curved plate which is connectable with the cableway at an upper portion thereof, the upper portion of the support element formed with slots making it possible to displace the support element from the lower side of the cableway up through the bottom of the cableway to a position in which the longitudinally extending thread elements of the cableway are received in the slots of the upper portion of the cableway, whereby said support element is adapted to cause a curve in the cable supported thereon.
