Claim: 1. A method for locking a rope winch, characterised in that a locking bolt (6) is inserted when a rope drum (1) of the rope winch is stopped; first, said inserting is performed through one of two holes (5) in a first lug (4); then said inserting is performed through one of multiple arched cuttings (3) on a wheel (2) of the rope drum (1) of the rope winch; and finally said inserting is performed through one of two holes (5) in a second lug (4), then the locking bolt (6) is secured in position with a nut (7).
Claim: 2. The method of claim 1 , characterised in that while the rope drum (1) of the rope winch rotates, at least one of two holes (5) in each lug (4) aligns with one of the multiple arched cuttings (3) on the wheel (2) of the rope drum (1) of the rope winch.
Claim: 3. A device for locking a rope winch, particularly for launching lifeboats, equipped with a rope drum (1) with a wheel and lugs, characterised in that there are arched cuttings of identical length (3) in the wheel (2) which are positioned in equal distance from each other on an arc of a circle which has its centre in a rotation axis of the rope drum (1) of the rope winch and each lug (4) has two identical holes (5) positioned on the arc of the circle which has its centre in the rotation axis of the rope drum (1).
Claim: 4. The device of claim 3 , characterised in that the length of the arc with its centre in the rotation axis of the rope drum (1) of the rope winch, measured between two holes (5) of each tug (4), is more than the length of the arc between said arched cuttings (3) and less than the length of the arc of each arched cutting (3).
