tension carriage

A bogie or frame carrying a pulley around which the rope of an endless rope haulage passes to be tensioned or tightened. The bogie moves on rails and may be kept taut by balance weights or placed on an inclined roadway (with sufficient weights) to move up or down according to the tension in the endless rope. A tension device is necessary to take up any slack rope created by varying loads on the haulage system.
