DIY telfer gearbox repair

The most popular and easy to install and operate device for lifting loads is an electric hoist. Let's consider its device on the example of modern telphers of the MH series produced by Balkancarpodem. General telfer scheme shown in the picture above.

Basic electrical diagrams of the hoist can be found here

The mechanical equipment of the MH electric hoist includes such important structural elements and assembly units as lifting drum, gearbox, coupling, hook suspension, undercarriage, load rope.

Asynchronous two-speed electric motor with tapered rotor and stator and built-in asbestos-free cone brake. The rotor has the ability to move with less resistance in the axial direction. In the event of a power failure, the brake is applied by the force of the coil spring. The wide range of possible combinations between motors and gearboxes with different specifications expands the range of lifting loads and lifting speeds. Additionally, hoists are supplied with two-speed motors - with two stator windings (for working speed and for precise positioning of the load). Another delivery option is with frequency converters for maximum smooth starting and braking of drives.

A two-stage planetary gearbox mounted on the opposite side of the electric motor. This design was preferred due to the need to provide the telpher with compactness in the radial direction. Three stages of the gearbox provide reduction (reduction) of engine speed, as well as smooth starting and braking. High quality materials are used for the manufacture of gear wheels and other gearbox elements. The surfaces of the teeth of the gear wheels are subjected to carburizing and hardening, followed by grinding, which ensures a long service life and quiet operation of the gear wheels with a high efficiency of the gearbox. The extended kinematic chain of transmission of engine torque to the drum reduces dynamic loads during the operation of the electric hoist.

The new body is box-shaped. Represents a tightly welded structure such as a flange connection between the motor and the gearbox. The exit of the rope in all possible radial directions along the periphery of the body ensures the operation of the electric hoist in various mounting options and positions.

A special gearbox clutch is used, located inside the drum between the motor shaft and the gearbox shaft. The elastic bag absorbs the peak torque components. The design of the coupling ensures unhindered axial movement of the motor shaft. At the same time, it protects the shafts from any radial or tangential movements. This specificity is due to the fact that the rotor of the lifting electric motor is conical. When the drive is turned on, such a rotor extends along the axis, disengaging from the stator, and when it is turned off, it is pulled back. Thus, the motor itself is already able to brake the drive during standstill, that is, it has a built-in brake. The kinematic connection of the gearbox with the electric motor is non-breaking.

The lifting drum is a cylindrical hollow structure designed for winding a load rope. The surface of the drum is covered with special grooves - "streams", thanks to which the cargo rope is wound in even rows, without overlaps and creases.Together with the rope, the rope-laying device moves on the drum - a device that is necessary not so much for laying the rope in the streams, but for turning on and off the limit switches for over-lifting and over-descent.

On the surface of the drum, helical channels for the rope are made. A special rope tightening moves in these channels and ensures correct winding and unwinding of the rope, regardless of the size of the suspended load. The drum has two diaphragms. One of them is mounted on the front flange of the electric motor using a roller bearing. The torque of the outgoing hollow shaft of the gearbox is transmitted to the second diaphragm via a splined connection.

New design. No special tools are required to replace the rope tie. The limits of the deviation of the rope to the side to the engine or to the gearbox are ± 4 °. The wire rope activates the switch for the extreme upper and lower positions of the hook.

The MH electric hoist uses a Bulgarian-made metal rope as a load rope. The most common rope storage provides for rigid termination of one end of it on the body of the hoist and clamping of the other end on one edge of the lifting drum. In this case, the load rope itself is thrown through the hook block. This reserving prevents damage to the rope and extends its service life. One end of the rope is fixed to the drum with cable ties. The other end is attached to the body of the hoist, or to the body of the hook or to the drum first, depending on how the load is suspended. The technical characteristics of the rope provide the necessary reliability and minimal wear of the rope itself and the drum channels.

Hook included: a new design that, together with the chain hoist, meets modern technical safety requirements. Operation is facilitated by the minimum dead weight of the hook. There is a reliable protection against arbitrary exit of the rope from the channels of the rope rollers. Hook suspension contains a freely rotating rope block in a metal casing that prevents the rope from falling off. The load hook itself also rotates freely in both directions for the convenience of slinging work.

Three types of trolleys are offered: type N, type K and type D... Electric hoist bodies are attached to them in such a way that optimal distribution of the load on all wheels is ensured. The wheels are designed to move the hoist along the flanges of the I-beam. Carts can also be electric (EK), manual (RK) or free (SK). The electric trolley has a propulsion mechanism of the same type as the lifting mechanism. A normal motor mechanism with an electromagnetic brake is also proposed. The range of travel speeds of the trolleys is very wide. Installation and adjustment of bogies in relation to the profile of the monorail is carried out infinitely. If a double-rail bogie is ordered, the track width and rail dimensions are specified by the customer. Some electric hoists, which are large in axial direction, are equipped with two bogies.

Hoist electrical equipment includes hoist motors, travel motors, pendant control, starter cabinet, limit switch block, brake coil and capacity limiter. The coil and limiter, depending on the configuration, may be missing. The design of the hoist's electrical equipment can be special, for example, for operation in a chemically aggressive environment or in a tropical climate.

The voltage and frequency of the electrical network are supplied by the customer. The operating voltage to the relay and contactor coil is 42 V, the frequency is -50 Hz. Most of the electrical equipment is located in the command box, which is mainly attached to the body of the hoist. The limit switch for lifting and lowering the load is located in the motor terminal block.

Push-button pendant control has a degree of protection IP65 and can be four-button or six-button for operation as part of an overhead crane. The panel contains a key-mark to exclude unauthorized access to the mechanism control, as well as a "mushroom" button for emergency shutdown of the drives. For hoists with two-speed electric drives, the control panel can have two-position buttons (pushers) or a larger number of buttons - up to 12 pieces.

Protected Launcher contains reversible electromagnetic starters for switching on drives, a rectifier for supplying the brake coil (if any), terminal blocks for connections, an electronic unit for a load limiter (if any) and a control circuit transformer 380/42. The starters are DIN rail mounted, but they are not available when controlling frequency converters.

Limit switch contacts lifting and lowering are installed in the terminal box of the lifting motor. The mechanical connection with the rope-laying device is provided by a special traction, on which adjusting crackers are installed.

Braking solenoid coil The MH hoist provides braking of the hoist drive along with the tapered rotor. It is powered by direct current from a rectifier in the starting cabinet.

The capacity limiter for MH electric hoists is available on request. It is electromechanical, and its design is simple and reliable. In the event of an overload, the limiter breaks its contacts in the lifting control circuit and then only lowering is possible. The lifting capacity is adjusted mechanically with a special adjusting screw.

how to remove the electric motor from the frame t33 511

The hardest part of this is to mount the gearbox in place, it is very difficult to get into the splines the first time.

Hello, tell me. There is a crackle from the hoist reducer, and only on the "lane", on the "vira" - everything is fine. In the inspection hatch you can see that the ratchet dog with obvious traces is either work hardened or scored. How to treat. And what to prepare for? What to remove the gearbox is already clear 😉

Hello, tell me. There is a crackle from the hoist reducer, and only on the "lane", on the "vira" - everything is fine. In the inspection hatch you can see that the ratchet dog with obvious traces is either work hardened or scored. How to treat. And what to prepare for? What to remove the gearbox is already clear 😉

The reasons turned out to be several: 1 - inside the gearbox housing, the retainer limiting the travel of the ratchet is broken, 2 - the load-holding brake itself (pin) is wedged, 3-well, and the ratchet pawl is licked that part that should engage with the wheel. Video helped

you would better tell about the work of the load-resistant brake, and if it is advisable to rinse it all with kerosene before troubleshooting the mechanisms, at the same time it didn’t interfere with rinsing the body, as there may be old mechanical shavings left there, and no credit video.

The load brake is an interesting thing. It works due to the frictional force of the brake linings that are attached to the ratchet wheel. Which are pressed by two discs. Works only on the lane, On the "vira" is the opening (departure) of the discs from the ratchet wheel.

Telphers, or in other words, electric hoists, are indispensable helpers when lifting and transporting heavy loads at a variety of sites: from very large warehouses and logistics centers to large-scale construction sites.And therefore, the failure of such equipment can seriously interfere with the well-functioning work of the entire enterprise. What needs to be done to avoid possible risks of breakdowns of such hoists, how to properly maintain them, and what kind of repair of hoists does it take? All about this - read in this material.

Surely anyone who has worked a little with the telfer will attest to how easy it is to move large, heavy luggage around the area. The delivery of cargo from one point on the object to another is carried out as quickly as possible in comparison with conventional fork carts or stackers, the operation is very simple, and the electric hoist itself does not take up such a valuable area, being literally suspended above the working platform (it is important that its installation can be organized both indoors and outdoors). But, like any medal, there is a downside.

Although the telfer gives the impression of a simple mechanism, it is still a rather complex device, consisting of many different units and blocks. Therefore, there are many places that can cause certain problems during operation. Of course, it all depends on the specific model: serious and well-known manufacturers with quality and reliability have an order of magnitude fewer problems than non-brand products from China. However, in general, it is still possible to single out the most important objects of attention from the point of view of future repairs, which most often require replacement or repair:

• natural wear of bushings, bearings and various shafts of the hoist;
• problems with the cable layer and mechanical breakage of the drum;
• failures in the electronic control units of the telfer and the remote control;
• interruptions in the operation of the electric motor and burnout of its winding;
• wear and malfunction of the brake system as a whole or its parts.

Therefore, if during operation you notice the absence of rotation of the electric motor or drum (with the engine running), arbitrary unwinding of the cable or chain, jamming of the gearbox or brake mechanism, as well as any uncharacteristic extraneous sounds and vibrations in the forklift, not to mention smoke or sparks , urgently seek help from a specialized workshop that offers the repair of hoists and telphers. But keep in mind: attempts to repair yourself can lead to more serious damage - therefore, it is better to immediately entrust this to experienced qualified specialists.

Although, of course, a more correct approach is to organize such a hoist operation, in which repair can, if not be avoided, then reduce the need for it to a minimum. Moreover, there are no special difficulties and secrets in this matter. The most important thing: this is correct and competent maintenance, as well as careful, accurate and safety-relevant handling when working with such a device (and it, we recall, carries an increased danger for both equipment and people).

Let's start with scheduled service. On the one hand, the frequency of inspection with diagnostics and replacement of consumables must be determined based on the specific operating conditions of the hoist at the enterprise (you can often come across the opinion that this should be done every 60-70 machine hours). On the other hand, experts say that even with an average load of the lift, it is hardly worth doing this less often than once a month. What should such a service include? The list of exemplary works can be roughly divided into several of the following areas:

• wiring: assessment of the state of the insulation of all wiring and the reliability of grounding, the operation of current supply buses, magnetic starters, limit switches, current collectors and various security systems;
• engine: quality of start-up, stability of operation of the electric motor, gearbox and control electronics (including the push-button panel), absence of breakdowns in the motor winding, etc .;
• hoist: checking its cleanliness, the presence of the necessary lubrication, assessing the condition and performance of the rope-laying device, gear transmission, hook suspension (including its mobility during rotation), as well as brakes;
• fastenings: study of the reliability of the mechanical part of the telphers in the form of tightening bolts, contact connections, assessing the condition of spring washers and cotter pins with stoppers, fastening a cargo rope, hook and others.

If any problems are found in any of the described nodes, it is necessary to carry out high-quality and, most importantly, urgent repairs. This will avoid serious damage to the hoist - and, accordingly, save a lot of time and money in the future, as well as postpone the need for overhaul (as experience shows, it is required after 3.5-4 thousand machine hours).

As for the aforementioned careful operation, everything in this matter is quite simple and accessible. An approximate list of such conditions for the trouble-free operation of an electric hoist during the entire service life prescribed by its manufacturer consists of the following recommendations:

• do not exceed the maximum passport carrying capacity of the hoist;
• do not use the device in an unsuitable mode or temperature;
• do not lift fixed, frozen or ground loads;
• do not drag the load on the ground (be sure to raise it to a height);
• do not allow sudden accelerations, decelerations and changes in direction of movement;
• do not use a hoist if the chain, rope or hook is damaged;
• do not move loads if you find problems with brakes and stoppers;
• do not press the opposite buttons on the control panel;
• do not turn on the hoist when the electrical equipment cabinet is open;
• do not use the limit switch as a work switch;
• do not leave the suspended load for a long time (overnight).

All of the above is the basis not only for the durability of the electric hoist itself, but also a guarantee of safety at the facility. After all, non-observance of the described operating standards can lead not only to breakdown and further repair of the hoist, but also, at least, to serious injury to people. Therefore, make sure that the operators of the device comply with all the instructions and regularly, every few months, undergo re-certification of their qualifications for admission to work with such equipment.

DEVICE OF MAIN UNITS

Electric hoists TE320 are manufactured in two versions:

• 1) for a curved path (Figure 1);
• 2) for a straight path (Figure 2).

Electric hoists are manufactured with a longitudinal arrangement of the drum relative to the monorail track.

The hoist for a curved path (Figure 1) consists of a lifting mechanism 1 with a hook suspension 2 and a movement mechanism 3, connected by a shackle 4 and a traverse 5.

The hoist for a straight track consists of a lifting mechanism 1 with a hook suspension 2 and a movement mechanism. For a hoist (Figure 2, a) with a lifting height of 6 and 12 m, the movement mechanism consists of a drive trolley 3, connected to a hoist: an arm 5. For a hoist (Figure 2, b) with a lifting height of 18, 24, 30, 36 m, the mechanism movement consists of a driven trolley 3 and a non-driven trolley 4,;: equipped with hoists 5 and 7.

T als with a micro drive, in addition to this, have a micro drive unit 6 and a unit 3), which, along with the main speed, provides a low speed of lifting and lowering the load.

Figure 1 - General view of TE 320 electric hoists for a curved track

Figure 2 - General view of TE electric hoists for a straight track: a) with a lifting height of 6, 12 m.

Figure 3 - General view of the microdrive attachment

The lifting mechanism (Figures 4 and 5) consists of a drum motor 1, a two-stage gearbox 2, an electrical equipment cabinet 3 and a housing 4, which connects all nodes of the lifting mechanism.

The kinematic diagram of the lifting mechanism is shown in Figures 6 and 7. An electric lifting motor is built into the drum.

On the outer surface of the drum motor, a helical groove is cut, onto which the rolling rope is wound and along which the rope layer moves at the hoists with a rope-laying device. The length of the drum was chosen in such a way that when the rpuz was raised to the nominal height, 1.5 - 2.0 free turns of the groove remained in front of the rope guide, and when the rp was lowered to full height, 1.5 - 2.0 turns of uncoiled rope remained on the drum.

The rope is fixed in the annular groove of the right flange of the drum motor with three locking screws (Figure 8). The second ROP of the rope is fixed with a wedge on the body of the lifting mechanism (Figure 13).

Before installing them on the hoist, the ends of the cutting ropes must be prepared in accordance with Figure 9.

The hoist gear reducer has a two-stage spur gear transmission, a shoe brake on the input shaft and a pressure-resistant brake on the intermediate shaft.

Lifting mechanism for TE hoist

Fastening the rope to the drum.

On the finger, fixed in the gearbox housing, there is a dog 4, which, turning on the axis, enters or disengages from the ratchet wheel.

When lowering the load, the pawl, resting on the teeth of the ratchet wheel, locks the entire system and does not allow the load to fall. When the electric motor is turned on for descent, the cogwheel moves to the right, and the load begins to descend at an accelerated rate, and the load brake is turned on again. After repeating several such cycles, a smooth and continuous sliding of the rubbing surfaces is established and the load is lowered at a constant speed.

When lifting a load, although the ratchet wheel is clamped, braking does not occur, since the pawl is disengaged from the ratchet.

The entry and exit of the pawl from the engagement with the ratchet is carried out due to the friction force arising under the action of the spring located inside the caps placed in the pawl boss. The axial rotation of the pawl when disengaging from the ratchet is limited by a special stop.

The operability of the load brake is checked with a raised load equal to 1.1 times the rated load and the shoe brake is disengaged. When the load is lifted and braked by both brakes, with the effort of the hands and lift the shoe brake lever up so that the armature of the electromagnet enters the yoke all the way. In this case, the shoe brake is released and the load is held only by the load brake. Spontaneous lowering of the load is not allowed.

The rope-laying device (Figure 12) is an annular device covering the drum, assembled from four sectors 2 and 1, fastened with special strips. The inner surface of the sectors is rounded and fits into the helical groove of the drum. Sector 1 of the UST'd rope-laying device is updated between the flanges of the welded body, which excludes the rotation of the ring device during operation. On sector 1, a guide bar 5 and a roller 3 are mounted.notnaya spring 4. Load rope 6 passes between the sector and the guide bar for the spring, which presses it against the groove of the drum. When the lifting mechanism is operating, the rope-layer moves along the drum, placing the rope in the groove or freeing it.

Hook suspension

Hook hanger (Figures 14 and 15) - single-block, open type. It consists of 2 jaws 1, block 2 with an axis 3, a hook 4 with a safety lock 5 and a traverse 6.

The block and hook supports in the suspension are made on ball bearings, which ensures their easy rotation.

They pressed in and the result was a battle. Well, there were no body reserves on the shaft, and the rotor could not be put into any machine, so the rotor itself had to be machined behind the shaft. This was the end of the saga. The gap increased, a hum appeared, and power was lost.

      Here you can order repair of hoists, installation of hoists or dismantling of hoists, as well as purchase new hoists directly from the manufacturer's plant.

      In our company, each customer can carry out repair of hoists , as needed, use the rest of the maintenance and repair of lifting equipment. Specialists work with electric hoists, hand-held, mobile, stationary, IVDS and explosion-proof. They repair devices of any carrying capacity and headroom. They have the qualifications and have all the necessary documents to provide services in this area of ​​activity.

      In the process of repair work, the installers assess the condition of the welded seams and traverses, then they inspect not only the gear drives of the reducers, but the mechanisms for moving the hoist. In addition, they secure bolted joints of metal structures, covers and gearboxes, check and lubricate the hoist gearbox, suspension and hook block bearings, travel gearbox and load rope gearbox. Specialists board the welded casing of the devices with a rope-laying device.

      Various devices are used to move loads. If you take any production, for example, a factory or a factory, then you need to move some kind of cargo everywhere. Not only raise or lower, which is also very important and necessary, but also move horizontally.

      If there is enough space in the workshop or on the construction site, then all these actions are successfully performed by hoists with appropriate characteristics, but there are situations when they break down and you need to repair the hoists, then our company will help you with this issue.

      In this case, an application for the repair of the hoists is sent, the approximate cost of the work is found out, and, by agreement, everything is put into operation. It is an indispensable device for lifting heavy and oversized loads in places where there is little space and it is difficult to approach the load. Even today, with the development of various technologies, at a construction site or in a factory, you can often still find a manually operated device.

      Of course, the load is lifted in this way very slowly, because everything depends on the speed of the workers. But these devices are beneficial to use in places where there is no electricity. For example, at the construction site of a country house, if it is not possible to use the electrical option.

      Repair of hoists includes the following processes:

      - replacement of the cable and control panel for the electric hoist,
      - replacement of the engine for lifting and moving the hoist,
      - installation of two-speed electric hoist motors.

      During repair work, the adjustment and replacement of brake pads, troubleshooting and replacement of the wire rope guide of the electric hoist are carried out.

      Hoist repair also means the replacement of the hoist hook and the installation of an OGP - load limiter. Work with electric hoists - replacement of the electrical part of the starter, step-down transformer 220V, 48V, 24V and installation - commissioning processes. Statistical and dynamic tests - survey.The maintenance of the hoist is carried out at different times - a month, a quarter, half a year or for 12 months.

      We provide services in St. Petersburg for the diagnosis of malfunctions and repair of hoists and crane beams. We check the performance of the gear motor, adjust the brake force, change the failed starters, control panels, current transformers, limit switches, cables and hooks.

      In the simplest case, an electric hoist consists of an electric motor, a reducer, a drum for winding a rope, a rope, a hook with a block, a control unit, a control panel and a system of rollers for moving along a beam. The lifting and lowering of loads occurs due to electrical energy, and movement along the beam due to the muscular strength of a person. A more complicated option is the presence of an additional motor for moving the hoist along the beam. The most advanced option is a crane-beam - a lifting device in which not only the telpher moves along the beam, but the beam itself moves along the guides.

      The electric hoist consists of:

      • gear motor
      • rope (wire rope)
      • hook with block
      • control unit
      • control panel
      • braking device
      • safety limit switches
      • suspension systems and movement along the beam

      Two types of malfunction are possible - destruction of the gear train and burnout of the motor windings. In the first case, you need to change the motor reducer, in the second, you need to rewind the motor, for example, in the "Electromotor" company.

      Reasons for failure of the gear motor:

      • systematic excess over the nominal weight of the load being lifted
      • lack of lubrication
      • continuous operation in the absence of one of the phases (the engine is humming, but it is running)

      Ropes for telphers are divided into hard and soft, for telphers it is better to use soft ones. During operation, the cable can get numerous seizures and twist. In this case, the cable must be replaced.

      The control unit works on the basis of a phenomenon known in electrical engineering - when the order of the phases is changed, the three-phase electric motor begins to rotate in the other direction. To change the phase sequence, an interlocked starter is used - two identical starters combined together in such a way that if one has worked (closed the contacts), then the other cannot work because of the mechanical latch installed between them. An interlocked starter has three states: left starter closed, right starter closed, both starter open.

      When a button is pressed on the control panel, a signal is sent to the starter coil corresponding to the button, it closes the contacts and the electric motor begins to rotate in the specified direction. At the same time, there is a signal to disengage the brake while the engine is running. If you press a button on the remote, but nothing happens, it is possible

      • the contacts of the button on the remote control collapsed or a wire fell out of them
      • damaged multi-core cable between the control panel and the control unit
      • the control wire is torn from the contact of the starter coil
      • the interlocked starter is out of order - the coil is burnt out or the mechanical part is destroyed
      • defective electric motor

      The braking device serves to fix the position of the hook with the load in the absence of pressing the control buttons. The device resembles the disc brakes of a car - there is a disc fixed on the axis of rotation and movable friction linings pressed against the disc by springs. When current is applied to the control coil, a rod fixed movably inside the coil releases the springs, which allows the cable with the drum to rotate freely.

      In the process of winding on a drum, the cable must be laid neatly - turn to turn, otherwise, it overlaps and bites between the rotating drum and the stationary body. If it is not possible to knock out the rope, then you will have to either cut the rope and take it out in parts, or disassemble the telpher and remove the drum.

      During operation, sometimes the rope is twisted, in this case, no matter how hard you try, the rope on the drum will overlap. There is only one way out - to replace the cable. In St. Petersburg, a cable can be bought, for example, from the Kanat company.

      Due to the carelessness of the personnel, the control cable (the cable between the telpher and the control panel) is stretched and the contacts of the control wires are pulled out of the terminals. To prevent malfunction, the control cable must be fixed on a steel cable, one end of which is fixed to the console, and the other to the telpher.

      The supply cable can be damaged as a result of repeated bending-unbending during the movement of the hoist. One of the phases ceases to flow to the engine, the engine begins to hum and loses its ability to work. To detect a malfunction, it is usually sufficient to visually inspect the cable along its entire length.

      If, at the end of lifting the load, when the button is released, the load falls under its own weight (it is not fixed in the raised position), then it is necessary to tighten the brake. The system works in the same way as a car brake. A brake disc is mounted on the shaft, which is locked with a spring-loaded brake shoe. By adjusting the spring, we either weaken or increase the grip between the disc and the pad.

      The control cable can also be damaged, and traces of damage are not always visible from the outside. If the commands from the remote control do not reach the telpher, then you need to ring the wires of the control cable.

      If three phases come to the motor terminals, and the motor does not work, then the motor must be repaired. The engine can have both mechanical damage: seizure of bearings and shaft fracture, and electrical: inter-turn short circuit, winding breakage or winding short circuit to the housing.

      Of course, you can buy them ready-made, but they are usually not very cheap - several thousand rubles. And they are not often on sale. Vehicle rescue lever winches available in virtually any store cannot be used for lifting loads. Because their stoppers are made with a ratchet mechanism. And it only works well one way. It is easy to lift a load with such a winch. But to lower it smoothly is problematic. When making hoists or a winch on his own, the master is faced with the task of where to get a powerful reliable gearbox (with a transmission of at least 1:20 - 50) and always with a self-braking effect. As a rule, these are powerful worm gearboxes and they do not often fall into the hands of the master.

      Meanwhile, almost everyone can make a homemade winch or hoist, and, as they say, from scrap materials. Threaded rods up to 2 meters long are available for sale.And it can serve as an excellent gearbox for a homemade hoist.

      The device of such a winch is clear from the sketches. The operating principle of the winch is simple. If you rotate the threaded rod itself, and the nut on this hairpin is not allowed to scroll, then the nut will move along the hairpin. The force during this movement is much greater than that required to rotate the stud (all screw jacks work according to the same principle, the increase in force there reaches 20-30 times).
      

      The ends of the studs are fixed in bearings, which, in turn, are mounted in supports. A nut on a stud is a rectangular metal plate to which ordinary nuts are welded. The plate prevents the nuts from spinning. A cable is also attached to the plate. The cable is passed through one of the supports and thrown over the block. At the other end of the cable there is a lifting hook or a sling system (this depends on the purpose of the lifting winch).

      The pin drive is easiest to do manually. For this, a pulley or gear is fixed at one of its ends. (you can even use a bicycle one, for example). A strong cord or chain is thrown through an endless loop through a pulley or gear. If you pull on either side of the cord, the pin will rotate and the nut will move along the pin. Accordingly, there will be a cable behind it, and the load will either lower or rise. Self-locking of the mechanism is absolute, no force on the nut will cause the stud to rotate. Rather, the whole thread will break.
      

      Of course, an electric drive can also be made using any reversible electric motor with a power of 200-500 W. It is convenient to use, for example, any inexpensive electric drill with a rotation direction switch. These drills are now commercially available. The electric drive can be done both directly and through an additional pulley or flexible shaft.

      Such a homemade winch can lift several hundred kilograms. In most cases, this is sufficient for household needs. The length of the stud, or rather the ability to move the nut along it, determines the lift height (in the simplest version of this homemade hoist). If you take a hairpin 2 meters long, then this height will be approximately 170-180 cm, which in the vast majority of cases is more than enough for a home workshop or garage. However, the lifting height is not difficult and can be increased by simple techniques.

      For example, to make two such winches (you must admit that their cost price is hardly more than a few hundred rubles). And use them alternately, shifting the load from one to the other every 1.5 - 1.7 meters of rise. The second option is to install additional parasitic pulleys (blocks) on the support (base) of the winch. Then, having raised the load to the maximum height, we connect the parasitic block to the cable, and switch the hairpin to reverse rotation. Since we changed the direction of the force on the cable with the block, the load will not go down (as in the usual order), but will continue to rise. There can be several such parasitic blocks.

      The support (base) for such a winch can be made from a durable dry wooden beam or thick board. Although, of course, it is better to use a metal profile or channel. All connections are made by means of a check or bolted. It all depends on the purpose and capabilities of the master. It is also easy to organize the movement of this hoist under the ceiling. For example, with the help of some kind of T-beam, placed in the center of the workshop. And install the support itself on the beam so that it can rotate around its center. Then almost any point in the garage or workshop will be available. A similar result can, of course, be achieved with the help of various blocks, it would be possible to fix something on something. Of course, the floor beams of the building must also be designed for additional loads.

      On the basis of such self-made winches, you can also make a home-made crane.This will require at least two of these winches. It is most convenient to place them in the crane boom. One of the winches will raise the boom itself (change its angle of inclination), and the other will lift the load itself. Of course, we shouldn't forget about the counterweight.

      The simplicity and affordability of such a homemade winch opens up a wide enough scope for its use in a home workshop, garage or at a construction site.
