Trolley Mounted Chain Blocks
A trolley mounted chain block is the combination of a manual chain hoist and beam trolley that are directly mounted to each other, that in most cases will decrease the closed height of a hoist, thus allowing for increased headroom and higher raised hook heights. This type of hoist often becomes of interest where space between the beam and the achievable lift height needs to be maximised or is restricted.
The beam trolley aspect of a trolley-hoist typically can be supplied as either a manual push/pull travel or as geared travel (pull/hand chain driven). Electric or pneumatically powered trolleys also exist, but these would typically be seen with the hoisting unit also being electrically or air powered (a manual chain block would be extremely uncommon to see mounted to a powered beam trolley).
Having an integral trolley means that the lifting hoist and load can be manoeuvred along a lifting beam; low headroom and ultra-low headroom versions are also available within our range that allow the hook to raised even further, closer to the underside of the lifting beam, maximising every possible bit of space.
Yale offer a fantastic range of monorail hand operated chain hoists in the format of a manual push travel or as geared travel (otherwise known as hand chain driven). Standard capacity options are available from 250kg all the way to 24 tonne with specially manufactured bespoke hoists, that can be made to our customer’s capacity requirements.
Monorail trolley mounted chain blocks/hoists are usually permanently installed on runway beams and are used for all types of industrial tasks, including maintenance and production processes.
Tiger offer through LiftingSafety the Tiger Monorail hand chain range of hoists lifting hoists. The manual hand chain hoist is integrated into the trolley and therefore solid mounted. This means that there is not the articulation / pivot point between the hoist and the trolley resulting in a lower head room. Tiger are a quality lifting equipment manufacturer and the hoists are assembled in the UK by Tiger Lifting. Tiger offer a limited range of quality monorail hoists at a competitive price with a proven track record here in the UK and overseas. We look forward to receiving your valued enquiry.
The range of monorail lifting hoists can be supplied manual push travel or chain driven (gear travel trolley) in capacities up to 5 tonne (5000kg)
Kito have a reputation in the lifting equipment industry unsurpassed for quality and durability and here at LiftingSafety we offer Kito hand operated Monorail hoists to the UK and our overseas customers. Kito are not the cheapest though they do have the reputation of being one of the best hand chain hoist makes.
Kito’s standard range of monorail trolley mounted lifting hoists are available from 500kg to 30,000kg (30 tonne) though we can supply 40 tonne and over as special manufactured bespoke monorail hoists. LiftingSafety supply Kito manual monorail hoists with a push travel or geared travel trolley in heights of lift to suit our customers’ requirements.
More About Trolley Hoists and Chain Blocks with Beam Trolleys
All of the trolley mounted chain blocks that we have on offer are from world reknown lifting equipment manufacturers and can generally be supplied with any lifting height that you require (some limitations apply, but you would also want to take in to consideration the ratio between hand chain pulled and the amount of lift achieved - for long lift heights, an electric hoist or air hoist might be more favourable to your operatives).
Like hook suspended chain blocks, integrated low headroom trolley chain hoists are designed to lift a load, then move the load along a runway lifting beam; manual lift with push or geared travel reducing manual handling. The integrated trolley is low headroom (or very low headroom) and can be adjusted to suit the desired lifting beam (limitations apply, but generally the trolley will cover a predefined minimum and maximum beam width).
As with a standard hook suspension chain block, various options, upgrades and features are available. For example, in a corrosion resistant finish, with stainless steel or zinc plated load chain or hand chains, or atex certified with spark resisant features for potentially explosive environments such as oil rigs.
Should you require any further information, guidance or assistance in selecting the most suitable hoist for your application, please do not hesistate to get in touch.
