Research and Development of the Tension Pay-Off Equipment for Wire Rope Maintenance

摘要

Traction wire rope is used in the construction of the power. The wipe rope cleaning, inspection and maintenance integration system can detect the damages on the traction wire ropes and maintain the ropes. The integration system consists of a variety of equipments and the tension pay-off equipment is one of them. According to the role of the tension pay-off equipment in the integration apparatus, the functional requirements of the equipment were determined and the structure of the equipment was designed. This paper used SolidWorks to build a three-dimensional model of the tension pay-off equipment and did finite element analysis of its key components with COSMOS Works. The structural optimizations and improvements about the tension pay-off equipment were carried out according to the results of the analysis. The tension pay-off equipment has been put into use and it works well.
