Crown saver

A device mounted near the drawworks drum to keep the driller from inadvertently raising the travelling block into the crown block. A probe senses when too much line has been pulled onto the drum, indicating that the travelling block may strike the crown. The probe activates a switch that simultaneously disconnects the drawworks from its power source and engages the drawworks brake.
