Not illustrated. 1890 Excerpt: ...forms of safety hook. Attention has been recently invited, in Australia, to an appliance patented by Winks, Cowling, and Hosken, of Castlemaine, for preventing the overwinding of cages. The apparatus, Fig. 423, is automatic in its action. The motion of the cage upwards towards the poppet-heads sets a lever affixed to the skids in action, and the gearing connected therewith then operates upon the throttle Phillips's Safety Winding Appliance. valve of the engine and brake on the fly-wheel, which at once stops the machinery and arrests the progress of the cage.

The first of these levers acts on the brake h of the fly-wheel i; and the second closes the throttle valve and cuts off the steam from the engine. The check action to the ascent of the cage is brought into operation by the cage itself. In its upward movement above the brace, the cage compresses the motive lever a, this motion is transmitted by the connecting wire to the cams, the ends of the cams drop, and the weighted levers act on the brake of the fly-wheel and close the throttle valve.
