The Research of the Slewing Bearing Force Balance of the Super Large Lifting Equipment

Article Preview

Abstract:

The slewing bearing of the full-revolving super large lifting equipment bears all loads above the rotating platform. Due to the effect of bending moment, the load conditions of the slewing bearing structure is complex and large, which leads to the non-uniform of stress and uneven deformation and final seriously affects the work performance of lifting equipment. The numerical example in this paper considers three kinds of sliding-friction models between slewing bearing structure and orbit. By numerical analysis results, we adjusted the structure arrangement and stiffness distribution. Finally the non-uniform of stress of the slewing bearing structure has been improved and tended to be uniform. Thus the paper presents a new approach for the design of the slewing bearing in super large lifting equipment.
