Lifeboat Winch

Lifeboat Winch

This winch will be used for Lifeboat Davit, and we can supply CCS ABS GL DNV KR NK BV LR, etc certification.As the braking system of ships, marine winches are not only required for large ships, but also for small ships such as lifeboats. Let's introduce the specific structure of lifeboat marine winches.

The lifeboat marine winch is a device that is installed on both sides of the ship to lower and lift the lifeboat with the help of davits, pulleys and steel cables. It can not only lift and release lifeboats, but also lift and release various work boats. Kind of offshore operations.
The lifeboat marine winch is composed of main components such as flange motor, reduction box, speed-regulating brake, centrifugal clutch, drum, safety protection device, handle and so on. The flange motor is installed on the side of the reduction box. The reel is a welded structure and is arranged symmetrically on both sides of the gearbox. The reduction box body is also welded, and the gears at all levels are lubricated by splash. The speed-regulating brake is the main component of the marine winch, and its main function is to limit the descent speed of the lifeboat within the specified speed range. The centrifugal clutch can automatically engage or disengage according to the motor speed.

In order to avoid the consequences of misoperation, marine lifeboat winches are equipped with a variety of safety protection interlocking devices, such as: motor forward and reverse interlock, electric drive and manual drive interlock, gravity launch and manual launch interlock. These safety protection devices are the guarantee for reliable and safe operation of marine lifeboat winches.
The marine winch is also equipped with a handle device, which is used to adjust the clearance when starting the boat when there is no power supply and during maintenance. In order to meet the requirements of launching a closed lifeboat, the marine winch can also be used to control the launching in the boat through a control cable.
