[接上页] (Enacted 1995) Cap 369AU s 15 Construction of hoists (1) A hoist shall be of such construction that, when operating under the working load determined in accordance with section 14(3), each component has an adequate factor of safety having regard to the material used, the method of construction and the nature of its duty. (2) In selecting the materials of construction of a hoist, regard shall be paid to the conditions under which the hoist will be required to operate. (3) A hoist shall consist of the following main parts- (a) a mechanically powered winch; (b) 2 separate falls; (c) a ladder or, in the case of a hoist installed on or after 1 January 1994, a platform, consisting of 2 parts, being- (i) a rigid upper part for the transportation of any person upwards or downwards; and (ii) a flexible lower part, consisting of a short length of pilot ladder, which enables any person to climb from a launch or tender to the rigid upper part of the ladder and vice versa.(4) There shall be safe means of access between the ladder at its upper limit and the deck and vice versa, such access to be gained directly by a platform securely guarded by handrails. (5) Any electrical appliance associated with ladder section of a hoist shall not be operated at a voltage of more than 25 volts. (6) A hoist shall be securely attached to the structure of the ship, such attachment not to be solely by means of the ship's side rails. (7) Without prejudice to the generality of subsection (6)- (a) proper and strong attachment points shall be provided for a portable hoist on each side of the ship; and (b) a portable hoist shall be equipped with an interlock that prevents operation of the hoist when the hoist is not correctly installed. (Enacted 1995) Cap 369AU s 16 Requirements for falls (1) The falls of a hoist shall be- (a) made of flexible steel wire rope of adequate strength and resistant to corrosion in a salt-laden atmosphere; (b) securely attached to winch-drums and the ladder, such attachments to be capable of withstanding a proof load of not less than 2.2 times the load on such attachments; (c) maintained at a sufficient relative distance from one another, so as to reduce the possibility of the ladder becoming twisted; and (d) of sufficient length to allow for all conditions of freeboard likely to be encountered in service and to retain not less than 3 turns on the winch-drums with the hoist in its lowest position.(2) Efficient arrangements shall be provided to ensure that the falls wind evenly on to the winch-drums. (3) Where the hoist is installed on or after 1 January 1994- (a) the falls shall be so arranged that the ladder or lift platform remains level if one fall breaks; (b) minimum safety factor of 6 shall be applied to the falls, which factor shall be calculated by dividing the breaking stress by safe working load of the material; and (c) the devices for attaching the falls to the winch shall be capable of supporting 2.2 times the working load with the falls run all the way out. (Enacted 1995) Cap 369AU s 17 Requirements for winches (1) The source of power for the winches shall be electrical, hydraulic or pneumatic and- (a) in the case of a pneumatic system, an exclusive air supply shall be provided with adequate arrangements to control its quality; (b) in the case of ships engaged in the carriage of flammable cargoes, the source of power shall not be such as to cause a hazard to the ship; and (c) all sources of power shall be capable of efficient operation under the conditions of vibration, humidity and range of temperature likely to be experienced in the ship in which they are installed.(2) The winch shall include a brake or other not less effective arrangement (such as a properly constructed worm drive)- (a) capable of supporting the working load in the event of power failure; and (b) capable of supporting the working load when the hand gear is in use.(3) Efficient hand gear shall be provided to lower or recover, at a reasonable speed, the person carried in the event of power failure. (4) Any crank handle provided for manual operation shall, when engaged, be so arranged that the power supply is automatically cut off. (Enacted 1995) Cap 369AU s 18 Ladder or platform section (1) The rigid part of the ladder section shall be not less than 2.50 metres in length and be equipped in such a way that the person carried can maintain a safe position whilst being hoisted or lowered, and such part shall be provided with- (a) a sufficient number of steps to provide a safe and easy access to and from the platform referred to in section 15(3)(c); (b) safe handholds capable of being used under all conditions, including extremes of temperature, together with non-slip steps; (c) a spreader at the lower end not less than 1.80 metres in length, the ends of such spreader to be provided with rollers which roll freely on the ship's side during the whole operation of embarking or disembarking; (d) an effective guard ring, suitably padded, so positioned as to provide physical support for the person carried without hampering movement; and |
