The composition of the crane wheel set

The crane wheel set is the core component of the crane operating mechanism, responsible for supporting the weight of the whole machine and moving smoothly along the track. Its performance directly affects the operating stability, load-bearing capacity and service life of the crane. The following is a detailed introduction to the crane wheel set:

The composition of the crane wheel set

The crane wheel set is usually composed of the following components:

Wheel: directly in contact with the track, bears the load and rolls.

Bearing box (bearing seat): installs bearings and supports the rotation of wheels.

Bearing: reduces friction and ensures flexible operation of wheels (commonly used spherical roller bearings or tapered roller bearings).

Axle: connects wheels and transmits loads.

Balance beam (balance beam) (partial structure): used for multi-wheel set structures to evenly distribute loads.

Buffer device (optional): reduces impact and protects tracks and wheels.
