Working Mechanism of Manual Chain Hoists

The manual chain block operates through a straightforward yet effective mechanism:

Lifting Process: Pulling the chain clockwise rotates the sprocket, engaging the ratchet wheel and brake base. This drives the gear system (long axis, short axis, and spline hole gear), lifting the load steadily via the chain.
Lowering Process: Pulling the chain counterclockwise disengages the brake base from the brake pad, stopping the ratchet wheel under the ratchet pawl’s action. The load is lowered smoothly as gears rotate in reverse.
Braking System: A ratchet friction chip one-way brake ensures secure load holding, with the ratchet pawl engaging the ratchet wheel under spring action for safe operation under load.

This mechanism guarantees precise and safe load handling, even in challenging global conditions.

Optimized Structure for Global Industrial Use

The hand chain hoist’s structure is designed for efficiency, durability, and global applicability:

Durable Components: Crafted from high-quality alloy steel for long-lasting performance.
High-Strength Chain: Engineered for minimal wear and corrosion resistance, ensuring reliable lifting.
Ergonomic Design: Lightweight and compact for easy handling and installation.
Safety Mechanisms: Ratchet brake and load-limiting features enhance operational safety.
Global Compliance: Certified to meet CE and ISO standards, suitable for international markets.

This optimized structure makes the manual chain block a robust and versatile tool for industrial material handling worldwide, delivering consistent performance with minimal maintenance.

FAQ: Hand Chain Hoist – Cost-Effective Manual Lifting Solution

1. What is a hand chain hoist, and how does it work?

A hand chain hoist, also known as a manual chain block, is a manual lifting device used for elevating and lowering heavy loads. It operates by pulling a hand chain, which rotates a sprocket and engages a gear system to lift or lower the load via a high-strength load chain. A ratchet friction chip one-way brake ensures secure load holding, with the ratchet pawl engaging under spring action for safe operation.

2. What are the key specifications of the hand chain hoist?

Lifting Capacity: 0.5 to 100 tons
Lifting Height: 0.5 to 3.5 meters
Operating Temperature: -20°C to 40°C
Duty Classification: Suitable for intermittent use
These specifications make it adaptable for various industrial lifting tasks worldwide.
