Application of Conical Surface Brakes in Cranes

Abstract

Abstract Both drum brakes and disc brakes have their own structural limitations and advantages. As a new type of industrial brake, cone brake combines the advantages of electric hydraulic drum brake and electric hydraulic disc brake, makes up for the shortcomings of drum brake and disc brake, and greatly improves the service performance and safety performance of the brake. This paper introduces the structure composition and working principle of the conical surface brake, analyzes the advantages of the conical surface brake through the comparison with the drum brake, carries out experimental research, analyzes the test results, gives optimization suggestions for the existing shortcomings, and explores the application prospect of the new brake combined with the introduction of application examples. This paper provides a reference for the technical innovation of brake and a new choice for brake users.
