hanging pulley
A small fenced pulley hung from the roof or side of a haulage road in which the tail rope of a main-and-tail haulage is suspended. It keeps the rope (which is not used for direct 1454 haulage of cars) clear of the roadway and minimizes friction while in motion. The swinging of hanging pulleys and ropes is a hazard to people traveling on the roadway.
