There are many manufacturers online that sell electric chain hoists. Some of these retailers are: Hoosier Crane Service Company, Street Crane, and Custom Electric Panel. These are good places to start when one is thinking of buying an electric chain hoist.
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.
Just a few names of top brands of electric chain hoists are Harrington, Ross, Yale, Budgit, telecrane, not to mention many more. However, if you are looking for the "top of the line" brand, you need to go with strength and durability; such as the Dayton 2XY32 electric Hoist.
An electric hoist is a device that is used to lift heavy objects by using an electric motor. It typically consists of a drum or lift-wheel, a chain or wire rope, and a hook or lifting attachment. Electric hoists are commonly used in construction, manufacturing, and other industries to efficiently move and position materials.
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
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.
A chain is only as strong as it's weakest link.
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
Either the load would not lift cleanly, it might tilt or swing; or the hoist attachment mechanism (e.g. sling or chain) may fail. It will depend on the load, the hoist and the particular error in attachment.
