The electric rope
hoist is a machine which is usually used to lift an unguided load vertically with a hook or using
suitable engagement accessories.
When the hoist is combined with a
trolley
, which runs up at a height along one or two girders, it can ensure both
lifting and horizontal movement of the load.
All lifting movements (ascent and descent) and transverse movements (right and left)
must be activated electrically
and can be controlled either with the push-button panel or remote control.
The electric rope hoist and the relative trolleys
, installed at a height, can equip a monorail or be the lifting unit of
other machines in which they are incorporated, such as: overhead travelling crane, gantry, and jib cranes, etc. in single
girder and double girder versions.
Furthermore,
the electric rope hoist
, placed at a height or on the ground, can be used in various fixed – position
configurations.
Two
main movements are possible:
•
vertical
; lifting of the load with a hook and movement of the ropes of the electric hoist
•
horizontal
; translation of the load through movement of the electric trolley along the girder.
These movements can be controlled with (fig. 102):
• push-buttons or actuators of
ascent
and
descent
for lifting the hoist (main and auxiliary)
• push-buttons or actuators of
right
and
left
for
trolley transverse
(main and auxiliary)
They activate the function when held down and the control for low auxiliary speeds for lifting and translation can be
activated in the following ways:
•
with separate actuators
which keep the “high” and “low” speed controls separate.
•
with a single actuator
with two positions, the first position is the “low” speed control and the second
position is the “high” speed.
The push-button panel
, when supplied,
has an emergency stop button
, which is red and mushroom-shaped,
which activates the stop function when pressed right down.
To allow the hoist to work it is necessary to bring the
emergency stop
button to its most “raised” position and then
push the start
buttons
. The push-button panel can be used by the operator on the ground while following the
translation movement of the trolley. The hoist can also be controlled through a remote-control system, the functions
of the buttons are the same as the ones on the pendant push-button panel.
5. - FUNCTIONING AND USE OF THE HOIST
5.1.1 Intended use – Foreseen use – Designated use
•
When the hoist is controlled using the remote-control the push-button panel is not attached to the
hoist itself, therefore, the operator must always take the utmost care during manoeuvres and
never lose sight of the work area or of the load being moved so as not to threaten his own safety
and/or that of other people present
• It is forbidden to control the hoist and/or trolley while sitting or standing on it (fig. 103).

5.1.2 Permitted loads, loads not permitted
The loads must:
• Be of a form, dimensions, mass, balancing and temperature suitable to the characteristics of the place in which they
will be handled and they must be compatible with the performance of the hoist.
• Have suitable handling points and/or fitted with accessories which prevent accidental falls.
• Be stable and not subject to changing their static or physical configuration during handling.
5.1.3 Lifting accessories
The following are usually allowed:
• Slings consisting of ropes and/or chains and/or strips made of textile fibres
• Lifting accessories which are located between the load and the lifting hook including: balances, plies, holdfasts,
magnets and electromagnets, etc.
• The use of such accessories must strictly comply with the specifications supplied by the manufacturers.
Handling of the following loads in not permitted:
• one with a weight greater than the nominal capacity of the hoist (fig. 104)
• with an uneven mass with respect to the centre of gravity.
• with surfaces which are not resistant enough to withstand the pressure of the hold.
• those which are classified as dangerous (e.g. flammable, explosive, radioactive material), because
of their chemicophyisical characteristics.
• harmful toxic materials or products, unless handled in suitable safety containers (e.g.: corrosive
chemical products, products having biological risks, etc.).
• loose foodstuffs, which may come into direct contact with parts of the hoist or with its lubricants.
• those which may change their static and/or chemicophisycal configuration or their centre of gravity
during handling.
• those without the accessories outlined in the following point.
The following accessories are not usually allowed:
• those with functional characteristics which may provoke a level of dynamic stress superior to that
admissible for the hoist or accidental overloading.
• those which may collide with parts of the hoist or trolley (fig. 105).
• those which compromise free handling of the load.
• those which are connected to independent electrical lines.
The weight of the lifting accessories must be subtracted from the nominal capacity of the hoist.
