A chain block with a drive motor ( 2 ) with a motor shaft ( 11 ), which is connected at the take-off side via a slip clutch ( 50 ) to a transmission input shaft ( 14 ), having a first gear ( 18 a ) and mounted in a housing ( 1 ) by pivot bearings ( 13, 13 a ), of an at least one-stage transmission ( 3 ). In order to create a simple design of chain block with a slip clutch, the transmission input shaft ( 14 ) is to be mounted floating in the pivot bearings ( 13, 13 a ) in order to change the frictional force of the slip clutch ( 50 ).
1. A chain block, comprising:
a drive motor and an at least one-stage transmission;
said drive motor having a motor shaft, said transmission having an input shaft, said motor shaft connected at a take-off side via a slip clutch to said transmission input shaft;
said transmission having a first gear mounted in a housing via a first pivot bearing and a second pivot bearing; and
wherein said transmission input shaft is mounted floating in said first and second pivot bearings in order to affect the frictional force of said slip clutch; and
wherein said transmission input shaft has a pinion that is configured in a spiral gearing so that, during operation of the chain block, the axial force produced by said spiral gearing leads to a changing in frictional force of said slip clutch in a lengthwise direction of said transmission input shaft.
2. The chain block of claim 1 wherein said slip clutch is arranged near said first gear on said transmission input shaft and thrusts against one of said pivot bearings.
3. The chain block of claim 2 wherein the axial force produced by said spiral gearing results in an increasing of the frictional force of said slip clutch at least when said chain block is hoisting.
4. The chain block of claim 2 wherein said slip clutch comprises a pressure disk that thrusts against said first pivot bearing and a clutch disk with a clutch lining, wherein said transmission input shaft thrusts against said clutch disk.
5. The chain block of claim 1 wherein the axial force produced by said spiral gearing results in an increasing of the frictional force of said slip clutch at least when said chain block is hoisting.
6. The chain block of claim 5 wherein said slip clutch comprises a pressure disk that thrusts against said first pivot bearing and a clutch disk with a clutch lining, wherein said transmission input shaft thrusts against said clutch disk.
7. The chain block of claim 1 including a brake that is arranged at an end of said transmission input shaft away from said slip clutch and acts on said transmission input shaft.
8. The chain block of claim 7 wherein said brake is configured as an electromagnetically operated disk brake.
9. The chain block of claim 8 wherein said slip clutch comprises a pressure disk that thrusts against said first pivot bearing and a clutch disk with a clutch lining, wherein said transmission input shaft thrusts against said clutch disk.
10. The chain block of claim 1 wherein said slip clutch comprises a pressure disk that thrusts against said first pivot bearing and a clutch disk with a clutch lining, wherein said transmission input shaft thrusts against said clutch disk.
11. A chain block, comprising:
a drive motor and an at one-stage transmission;
said drive motor having a motor shaft, said transmission having an input shaft, said motor shaft connected at a take-off side via a slip clutch to said transmission input shaft;
said transmission having a first gear mounted in a housing via a first pivot bearing and a second pivot bearing; and
wherein said transmission input shaft is mounted floating in said first and second pivot bearings in order to affect the frictional force of said slip clutch, wherein one end of said transmission input shaft is thrust against said second pivot bearing across a spring element in order to activate said slip clutch, wherein pretensioning of said spring element is adjusted by said first pivot bearing being adapted to travel lengthwise in said housing and be moved in a direction of said spring element by a set screw thrusting against said housing.
12. The chain block of claim 11 wherein said spring element comprises flat spring elements.
13. The chain block of claim 12 wherein said slip clutch comprises a pressure disk that thrusts against said first pivot bearing and a clutch disk with a clutch lining, wherein said transmission input shaft thrusts against said clutch disk.
14. The chain block of claim 11 including a brake that is spaced from said housing at a distance established by said set screw.
15. The chain block of claim 11 wherein said slip clutch comprises a pressure disk that thrusts against said first pivot bearing and a clutch disk with a clutch lining, wherein said transmission input shaft thrusts against said clutch disk.
