Spill

The spill is a rotatable device for catching ropes or an anchor chain, or for lifting heavy loads. Pallets prevent the spill from rotating backwards. It is driven by muscle power or a motor, whether it be an electric or a diesel engine. The spill differs from the winch in that the towed rope is not being wound up: the force is transmitted only by the friction of several trips on the drum or, for chains, by a chain nut. A spill can therefore pick up any length of rope or chain. A horizontal shaft spill is referred to as a roasting pan. The gangspill is a muscle-powered spill with a vertical shaft: it consists of a shaft and the spill head, which is provided with openings for the insertion of the spill rods. The latter are one to two meters long, with up to four men in each circle. Shanties were sung to keep the rhythm of the monotonous work and to lift the spirits of the crew. Das Spill ist eine drehbare Vorrichtung zum Einholen von Trossen oder der Ankerkette, oder zum Heben schwerer Lasten. Pallen verhindern, dass das Spill sich rückwärts dreht. Angetrieben wird es mit Muskelkraft oder einem Motor, sei es etwa ein Elektro- oder ein Dieselmotor. Das Spill unterscheidet sich von der Seilwinde dadurch, dass das geholte Tauwerk nicht aufgewickelt wird: Die Kraftübertragung erfolgt lediglich durch die Reibung mehrerer auf der Trommel liegender Törns oder, für Ketten, über eine Kettennuss. Ein Spill kann daher beliebige Längen Tauwerk oder Kette anholen. Ein Spill mit horizontaler Welle wird als Bratspill bezeichnet. Das Gangspill ist ein muskelkraftbetriebenes Spill mit vertikaler Welle: Es besteht aus einer Welle und dem Spillkopf, der mit Öffnungen zum Einstecken der Spillspaken versehen ist. Letztere sind ein bis zwei Meter lange Hölzer, an denen jeweils bis zu vier Männer im Kreis gingen. Dabei wurden Shanties gesungen, um den gleichmäßigen Rhythmus der eintönigen Arbeit einzuhalten und die Laune der Mannschaft zu heben.
