A chain is only as strong as it's weakest link.
No, the weakest link is actually the most vulnerable part of a chain and the one most likely to break under stress. Strengthening the weakest link is important for improving the overall strength and reliability of the chain.
A chain hoist uses gears to multiply force.A chain hoist is operated by hand. An operator pulls the light loop chain on the side of the chain hoist. This turns a gear mechanism inside the chain hoist housing to turn the chain pulley. When this pulley turns, it raises the heavy chain which usually has a hook on the end. By pulling the light chain loop, the manual hoist is actually able to increase the force that is being applied by the heavy chain. This is caused by the gear ratios inside the manual chain hoist. The mechanical work done by the operator is the same as the work done by the heavy lifting chain.
Hoist is a noun (a hoist) and a verb (to hoist).
You might be thinking of the expression, "A chain is as strong as its weakest link." This means that when the ends of a chain are pulled in opposite directions, there is stress on each link; when the weakest link breaks, the chain breaks.
A lever chain hoist works by using a lever to lift heavy loads. As the operator pulls the lever down, it engages a ratcheting mechanism that lifts the load. The chain attached to the hoist is used to support and lower the load.

It means that no matter how strong the chain is, its only as strong as the weakest link. Like a team is only as good as its worst player.
Electric chain hoists use an electric motor to power a chain mechanism that lifts and lowers heavy loads. When the motor is activated, it drives the chain to lift the load, and when the motor is reversed, the load is lowered. These hoists are commonly used in industrial settings for their efficiency and precision in handling heavy materials.

Hi, I would like to know the real/original name of the 'chain hoist/pulley' I was taught 50 years ago when of doing O levels physics. I guess it was the inventor's name. Obviously we can still buy them but they only call them a chain hoist or pulley. thks john 23.11.10
