Suspension for Crane
This document outlines the suspension system for a crane. It details the components involved and their functions.
- Main Hook:**
- Suspension Cables:**
- Sheaves:**
- Hoisting Mechanism:**
The main hook is the primary attachment point for loads. It is designed to withstand high tensile forces and ensure secure load handling.
These cables connect the main hook to the crane's hoisting mechanism. They are made of high-strength steel and are carefully selected based on the crane's capacity and operating environment.
Sheaves are grooved wheels that guide the suspension cables. They reduce friction and allow for smooth cable movement during hoisting operations.
This system is responsible for lifting and lowering the load. It typically consists of a motor, gearbox, and drum to wind and unwind the suspension cables.
