Electric Winch Basics
Electric Winch Basics
Electric winch with the main structure
1. Motor
Winch motor driven by the vehicle's battery, it transfers power to the mechanical transmission device, and then drive the cable winding winch drum rotation.
2. Cable
Carrying capacity of the cable determine the original design of its diameter and length (typically we use the cable is cable). Cable wound on the winch drum and through the chock. Labeled end of the cable to connect the anchor hook ring.
3. Winch drum
Winch drum is a cylindrical cable winding device.
It consists of motor driven winch drum can be under the control of the remote control to change the direction of rotation.
4. Chock
When using the winch a certain point of view, the chock will guide the cable around the winch drum. It will reduce the recovery time could winch cable or the bumper of the danger of stent is often fixed on the frame or bumper winch outside.
5. Transmission
Three groups constitute a planetary gear transmission mechanism, it converts electrical energy generated by the strong traction. The design makes the winch drive system becomes portable and compact.
6. Braking System
When the motor stops working and the cable with load, the braking system will automatically lock the drum. This prevents cable slipped loose, and the car pulled in place.
7. Clutch
Clutch can be manually operated to change the drum and drive system or lock out of the state, thus changing the transfer or transmission drum bye locked state.
8. Control box
Control box to a car battery power into kinetic energy through the electromagnetic coils so that the operator can change the direction of rotation of winch drum. Some winch control box to winch structure on curing, and some can be independent one, according to needs to be installed at suitable positions. Electric winch in the high load operation, the control box using a high-load control system to cope with the strong current.
9. Controller
Controller inserted in the winch control box, the freedom of controlling the direction of rotation of winch drum. It allows users to operate away from the cable when the winch to avoid danger.
