  • Food8. I T Is Only Within the Last Ten Or Fifteen Years That Lifts Worked By
    JAN. 1882. 119 ON ECYDRAULIC LIFTS FOR PASSENGERS AND (fOOD8. - BY MB. EDWARD BAYZAND- ELLINGTON, OF LONDOX. It is only within the last ten or fifteen years that Lifts worked by mechanical power have come into general use ; and, excluding docks and railway goods stations, it is still rather the exception than the rule to find power lifts in public buildings, or in warehouses and hotels even of considerable size. The greatly increased value of land in large towns, and the consequent increased height of the buildings erected, render however some kind of mechanical lifting power essential to the comfort and convenience of tho occupiers. Accidents to lifts, especially when worked by mechanical means, have been so frequent, that many hesitate to adopt them on account of the risk involved. But in a rapidly increasing number of cases their use is a neaeasity, and the risk must be taken. It becomes therefore a question of public importance that this risk should be reduced to a minimum. In determining the question as to the best kinds of lift for passengers and for goods, it is necessary to premise that whatever system of lift is proved to be safest and best for passengers should also be adopted, where practicable, for goods. Workmen and others are in the habit of travelling in goods lifts, and a prohibition against this practice is productive of inconvenience, Considerations of expense however will often stand in the way of the adoption of the safest kind of lift for goods alone, especially when the height of lift is great ; and there is in consequence a demand for two standard types, one for passengers and another for goods.

  • Electric Lifts and Cranes. 11
    Proceedings.1 RAVENSHAW ON ELECTRIC LIFTS AND CRANES. 11 30 March, 1897. JOHN WOLBE BARRY, C.B., F.R.S., President, in the Chair. (Paper No. 3038. ) “ Electric Lifts and Cranes.” By HENRYWILLOCK RAVENSHAW, Assoc. M. Inst. C.E. THE object of this communication is to directattention to the electrical and mechanical problems which present themselves it1 the application of electric motors to working lifts and cranes ; and todescribe the methods bywhich they have been solved in particular cases which have come under the notice of the Author. ELECTRICLIFTS. Thesimple gearing and slowly-moving mechanism necessary wherehydraulic power is available afford many advantages. Withthe electric motor, however, thecurrent varies with the work developed, while with the usual form of hydraulic motor the quantity of water used is as great with a light as with a heavy load. The greater simplicity of the hydraulic lift would therefore probably be an insuficient advantage to justify its in- troduction in places where electricity was already available, and where no hydraulic installation existed. Motor.-The class of electric motor generally employed does not callfor special description. Any good commercial machine can be used, a principal necessity being that it should require little attention.The machinesshould be sparkless under wide varia- tions of load, the brushes self-adjusting for wear, and the direction of rotation reversible. The bearings should also be self-lubricating. The efficiency should be high at all loads ; but a comparatively small machine can be used, as in most cases the maximum load is of short duration, the machine standing idle for at least half the time.

  • Discussion. the Transmission of Power to Distances
    30 MINUTES OF PROCEEDINGS. Mr. STEPIIENSON,President, said the distribution of power was of considerableimportance inall large undertakings, especially with aview of saving manual labour, which was frequently a source of greater trouble than all themachinery put together. Mr. E. A. COWPERbelieved this was the first instance in which a good arrangement for the distribution of power by water in a town had been described at the Institution. The way in which the work had been carried out appeared tobe excellent. In considering the question of hydraulicmachinery, what Joseph Bramahhad proposed, andwhat he actually did, ought not to be forgotten. In a letterto the late Mr.Robert Mallet, dated November loth, 1802, he distinctly foreshadowed this way of dis- tributing power, andhis letter seemed almost likean original suggestion of the plan which had been described.l Mr. Cowper thoughtnot only would suchuseful applications of hydraulic power bcmuch extended, but that other applications would be made of theprinciple, which was one thatentailed very little friction, even when great force was generated. He had applied a “ hydraulic reservoir,” as early as 1846, to work hydraulic presses for bending,shearing, punching out large plates, and welding iron. All the large end adjustment links for the Kieff bridge, in Russia, were cut out of l-inch plate by a press so worked. But the idea of a ‘Lhydraulic reservoir ” was not new, even then, as it had been used years before in a paper mill for working presses. The hydraulicpress was avaluable tool, and easily managed. There was no difficulty about the leathers, pipes, valves, or any of the appliances, if properly carried out.

  • 5 Modern Electrical Dock-Equipment, with Special
    JAN. 1911. 5 MODERN ELECTRICAL DOCK-EQUIPMENT, WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO ELECTRICALLY-OPERATED COAL-HOISTS. - BY MR. WALTER DIXON AND MR. GEORGE H. BASTER, Membeis, GLASGOW. OF - At the Summer Meeting of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, held at Cardiff in July 1906, three Papers dealing with Coal Shipping and Dock Appliances were read. The general impression in these Papers, and particularly in the discussion thereon, appeared to be that hydraulic power was the only power sufficiently reliable for such appliances, and that Electricity, no matter what other fields it may enter, was certainly not suitable for dock equipments, particularly coaling-cranes and tips. A review of the history of what had already been done with electric power in docks may have justified such an impression, although as far back as 1903, Mr. Walter Pitt, in a Paper before the Institution of Civil Engineers, showed that electric jib-cranes compared very favourably on all points with those operated by hydraulics, quoting some figures obtained by Mr. Baxter, as a result of a comparison between a hydraulic crane and an electric crane at Downloaded from pme.sagepub.com at The University of Melbourne Libraries on June 5, 2016 6 ELECTRICAL DOCK-EQUIPMENT. JAX. 1911. Princes Dock, Glasgow. British Dock Engineers have confined themselves very largely to electric jib-cranes and capstans, which until recently were chiefly modifications of the hydraulic type, very little original design being employed, the electrical plant being simply applied to machines already designed. The authors fully appreciate all the merits of hydraulics, and that this form of power, having been thoroughly developed, is very safe and reliable, and, excepting where frost, moving ground or other natural objections arise, is, perhaps, under favourable conditions, not inferior to electric power.
