Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a hoist, a hoisting apparatus with said hoist and a method for securing a hoist. A hoist body (20) having a drive mechanism for raising or lowering a hoist chain (18) or a hoist cable is suspended from a support device (14) by means of a hoist support (22). A safety device (24) having a loosely arranged coupling element (26) and a damping element (28) is mounted between the hoist body (20) and the support device (14). If the hoist support (22) is released, the hoist body (20) can drop by a drop height until the coupling element (26) becomes taut. The damping element then damps the fall under the load of the hoist body (20), the hoist chain (18) and whatever load (12) is suspended from it.
