This book describes the mechanical equipment on the W 1350 Drag1ine.
For description and operation of electrical equipment please consult Instruction Book by -
Associated Electrical Industries Ltd.
The following handbooks should be studies for information on specialised unit 'by various manufacturers:
BASE:
circular base 50' -0" dia. is built up of :':''')lle,'j steel plates and sections which support the roller path rotate rack. The post is a mild steel which is welded and bolted into the main base structure.
The roller circle consists of alloy steel tapered rollers mounted in a structu""al frame.
ROTATE FRliME:
Made from plates and flats welded to form fAur ------;\-'-',·-'-:---------t'u-l-l-]..@ng-t1\-]..eng-i-tud4-rla-l-g-i-pae-PB-·3d'l-te--wi'l4.--Gh.--i.s-1:nl-i-l-t,--------a circular girder which supports the upper Ioller path. The walking legs are supported by two transverse girders built into the frame.
HOUSE:
The house and driver's cabin are constructed of angle framework covered with overlapping flanged steel sheets. The driver's cabin is fitted with double glazed windows, with prevision for fitting It" of insulation inside the cabin. air conditioning unit is fitted beneath the driver's cab to maintain a steady temperature within the cabin. The control and thermostats for this unit are situated in the driver's cabin.
HOIST AND UNITS:
self contained units, identical fel' grooving. The Drive for each uni t is by four motors driving two reduction gears on to the winding drum. This provides a direct drive the need for clutch or brakes, bl1t an emergency or parking "lJrake is fitted to each motor.
These brakes are not nQrmally applied the machine is the machinery is by the controller and then the brakes are but in the event a power failure, limit switch operation or emergency stop, the brakes will be applied .
The Hoist and Drag units are provided Nith limit switches, which prevent complete unwinding the ropes and damage to the boom head, or fairlead, by over-winding.
These limit switches are not intended for continuous use. The operator should control bucket movement with the appropriate .controller and NOT depend upon the limit switches for stopping the bucket in every working cycle.
Unnecessary operation of limit switches causes unnecessary brake wear.
SWING GEAR:
Four separate and identical each driven by a vertical motor provide for the swine' motion.
Each motor is flange mounted en top of the gear reduction box, through which it is coupled to the gear rack on the base of the machine.
Each motor is fi tted wi th a spI'ing applied air released brake, controlled through a common
W.{\.LK GEAR:
The walk gear consists of a rectangular shoe each side the machine which can be brought into contact with the ground by an eccentrically operated jacking device. The walking operation is carried out by lifting the rear of the machine by the jacking device and sliding the machine backwards on the front edge of the base. The eccentric mechanism is driven through gears by two electric motors.
The are equipped with brakes similar to those on the HAist and Drag Units. These are To;p---D_eaud"----'-"cJ;::e:Lln-l.ttJ.,r:J:e t position. The swing units cannot be eperated until the walk gear is in this
