The Application of ANSYS Contact Analysis in Cable Crane Load Conversion Device

Abstract

This paper briefly introduces the development and the application of cable crane. And the composition of running gears and walking principle are introduced in details. At the same time, cable crane load conversion device as an important part of it, this article has carried on the detailed introduction and analysis to it. According to the contact analysis of ANSYS for load conversion device support frame, and compare the result of the analysis under different mesh size. We can definitely know the stress distribution of support frame structure, force transmission characteristics and the analysis results are influence by mesh size. Meanwhile, it proved that contact analysis can better response to the structure actual stress state.
