Working principle of lifting machinery

Hoisting machinery is designed to lift, move, and place heavy loads using a lifting hook or other attachment devices. The typical operation of such equipment involves several key steps: lifting the load from its original position, moving it through running, turning, or luffing, then lowering it at the designated location, and finally returning to the starting point. The hoisting mechanism plays a crucial role by raising the object with the lifting device, while the movement mechanisms help transfer the weight to the desired spot before it is set down.

Drive Unit

The drive unit is responsible for powering the working mechanisms of the crane. Common types of drive systems include electric drives, internal combustion engine drives, and manual drives. Electric drives are widely used in modern cranes due to their efficiency, cleanliness, and ease of control. Most cranes operating within limited areas, such as rail-mounted cranes, elevators, and overhead cranes, rely on electric power. For mobile cranes that need to travel long distances—like truck cranes, tire cranes, and crawler cranes—internal combustion engines are typically preferred. Manual drives are suitable for smaller lifting tools and can also serve as backup or emergency power sources in certain situations.

Working Mechanisms

Cranes are equipped with four main working mechanisms: the hoisting mechanism, the traveling mechanism, the luffing mechanism, and the slewing mechanism. These components work together to ensure the safe and efficient handling of materials.

(1) The hoisting mechanism is essential for lifting and lowering loads vertically. It is the most fundamental part of any crane and is critical to the overall function of the machine.

(2) The traveling mechanism allows the crane or lifting trolley to move horizontally, either along tracks or on a trackless surface. This mechanism can be self-propelled or pulled, depending on the design and application.

(3) The luffing mechanism is specific to boom-type cranes. It enables the boom to change its angle and length, thus adjusting the working radius and improving operational flexibility.

(4) The slewing mechanism allows the boom to rotate around the vertical axis of the crane, enabling material transport within an arc-shaped area. By combining different mechanisms, cranes can perform complex lifting and moving tasks efficiently.
