I-Beam Trolley for electric chain hoist maintenance and upkeep

Electric hoist trolley is a kind of automation equipment used in conjunction with electric hoist, which is mainly used to move lifting equipment or heavy objects on the track. It combines the lifting and lowering function of electric chain hoist and the horizontal moving function of trolley, which makes the lifting work more efficient, convenient and precise. It is mainly driven by electric power and is installed on the I-beam by default. In order to make it fit accurately, its wheels are at a certain angle, this steel beam is matched like the lower edge of the steel beam, and if it is H-beam, it needs to be explained in advance, because the wheels need to be leveled.

Installation needs to adjust the gap between the I-beam and the runner wheel, which can ensure the smooth operation of the electric hoist with trolley. Gap width adjustment method:

1. please refer to the above diagram to adjust the width of the trolley to get the proper clearance.

2. Dimension “A” is the measured value when the two side plates are fully stretched outward.

Dimension “A” must be approximately the width of the track flange (B) +4mm.

4. does not meet the above dimensions “A”, should not be considered the number of increased or decreased

5. Adjust the number of washers by inserting the cotter pins into the axial limit pins after obtaining dimension “A”.

6. Make sure to bend the two forks of the cotter pin.

7. Always keep the nut securely fastened, insert the cotter pin and bend it completely.

Common faults and solutions

1. Wheel slipping, this kind of failure is easy to lead to unstable operation or lifting to produce shaking and so on, we can check the I-beam and other track surface whether there are foreign objects, oil or other liquids and so on.

2. Wheel overhang: it may be caused by the irregularity of the steel beam, i.e. the lower flange of the wheel of the traveling car. There will be poor assembly precision, four wheels may only three or two can land. This will need to check the degree of deformation of the steel section and whether the installation nut adjustment is accurate.

3 wheel rail climbing rail: track end stop or buffer asymmetry, running trolley measurement weight imbalance, resulting in wheel buckling and climbing rail.

In addition to the above common failures electric monorail trolley brake braking system is also more critical, here out of the problem will lead to horizontal mobile operation can not be stopped in time, in the lifting of heavy objects after the mobile process is also prone to collision caused by accidents, so do a good job in the maintenance of the vehicle and installation is particularly important, in the face of common failures should be resolved in a timely manner to prevent operational errors.
