Part 1: The winch or hoist is in a winding house. This part of the system is used to wind or unwind the steel cable.
The hoist is attached to a motor and a control system.
The mine cage and the skips are lowered into the mine when a steel cable unwinds from the winch.
The mine cage and skips are raised when the steel cable winds up again.
Part 2: The sheave wheel is a pulley wheel that sits above the mine shaft. The hoist cable passes over the sheave wheel and then down the shaft of the mine.
The sheave wheel reduces the sliding friction of the mine cable.
Part 3: The head frame is the structure that supports the sheave wheel. It must be strong enough to keep the sheave wheel in place when it lifts the heavy mine cage.
The left “legs” of the head frame slope towards the hoist. This is due to the tension in the cable pulling the whole frame in that direction. The sloping legs prevent the head frame from toppling or falling over.
Part 4: The cage and skips. The cage is used to transport miners and equipment up and down the mine. Attached alongside or underneath the cage are skips.
Skips are used to bring the ore and the waste rock out of the mine.

∙ 7y agoThis was the structure that housed the engine and the machinery to wind (and unwind) the wire cable for the hoist machinery. Some of the winding house structures have been kept as historic structures, and are used told by restaurants, meeting halls, or museums.

What does the headgear of a mine do?
the headgear of a mine operates the mine cage
What happens when the primary winding is energized and the secondary winding is open circuited?
A voltage appears between the terminal points of the secondary winding
What happens if load of DC series motor is disconnected?
In D.C Shunt motor, the field winding is connected parallel with the armature winding.. If you remove the supply to armature winding, the motor will stop after some time.
What happens if field winding of a running dc shunt motor suddenly breaks open?
when the field winding of a running dc shunt motor suddenly breaks open the motor fails to run because in the motor the stationary winding is armature and rotatory is field winding
Why armature winding resistance is less than field winding resistance?
An 'armature winding' is the rotor winding, and the 'field winding' is the stator winding.
What happens in the winding house of mine?
The winding house houses the engine that raises and lowers the mine's cage (lift).
What happens in the winding house of a mine?
In a mine, the winding house is responsible for raising and lowering the cage or elevator that transports miners and materials between the surface and the underground levels. It houses the winding engine, which uses steam, electricity, or other power sources to operate the winding gear. The winding house plays a crucial role in controlling the movement of personnel and equipment within the mine shaft.
What happens in winding house of mine?
That is where the machinery and engines are to pull the ropes need to lower the lift up and down the mine shaft.
What does the headgear of a mine do?
the headgear of a mine operates the mine cage
What happens in the winding house of a mine ?
The winding house houses the engine that raises and lowers the mine's cage (lift).
What counterweight do to mine winding system?
The counterweight balances the load in the lift-shaft.
What happens when the primary winding is energized and the secondary winding is open circuited?
A voltage appears between the terminal points of the secondary winding
What is the difference between the two mine winches shown here?
What do you think a countweight does for a mine winding system.
What is the participle phrase in ..The winding road led to a large house on a hill.?
The winding road is the participle. To a large house and on a hill are prepositional phrases.
What happens to voltage in a step down?
The voltage induced into the secondary winding will be lower than the voltage applied to the primary winding. The primary winding being the winding connected to the supply, while the secondary winding is the one connected to the load.
Is winding someone up bullying them?
If it happens over and over it is bullying.
What happens if load of DC series motor is disconnected?
In D.C Shunt motor, the field winding is connected parallel with the armature winding.. If you remove the supply to armature winding, the motor will stop after some time.
