Quick and clear understanding of what block brakes are

Oct 19, 2019

In fact, a block brake is a brake, a mechanical part that stops or slows down the moving parts in the machinery. Commonly known as brakes, brakes. Brakes are mainly made up of frames, brake parts and controls. Some brakes are also equipped with automatic adjustment of brake element clearance.  

In order to reduce the braking moment and structural inch, the brakes are usually mounted on the high-speed shaft of the equipment, but large equipment with high safety requirements (e.g. mine lifters, elevators, etc.) should be installed on a low-speed shaft close to the working part of the equipment. Brakes are divided according to structure, often block brakes, belt brakes, and disc brakes. The block brake consists of two brake arms and two brake blocks located on both sides of the brake wheel, which is the frictional torque generated by pressing the brake wheel by the brake block. Depending on the length of the gate lever system for the block brakes and the length of the shuttle travel, it is divided into long-stroke block brakes and short-stroke block brakes. The short-stroke brake sluice can be mounted directly on the brake arm, making the brake arm compact, but due to the small sluice force, it is only suitable for small brakes (brake diameter is not greater than .300mm). The lever system of the sluice of the long travel brake can produce a large slud force for large brakes.

    The sluice of block brakes is divided into electromagnetic sluicers, hydraulic electromagnetic slotters and electric hydraulic pushrod sluices according to their working principles. These are just basic information about block brakes, and you need more information if you want to learn more about the block brakes. And block brakes as one of my company's main products, my company in addition to for you more detailed, comprehensive explanation of block brakes, to help you quickly understand the understanding of block brakes, but also according to your requirements, to provide reliable quality, stable operation of block brakes.
