2. Braked roll into the pulley of the lifting equipment Figure 1 shows a skatch of the lifting pulley of a container crane. To minimize the attenuation time of the shaking (oscilation) of the spreader it is necessary braking devices to be installed to the rolls (Fig. 2). In this case most suitable are band (strap) brake (Fig. 2a) (the hub of the roll can serve as a brake drum) or disk brake (Fig. 2b). Both brakes are normally closed. When the brakes are mounted to the working rolls of the pulley, it is necessary to have an opening electromagnet whose coil is connected parallel with the power of the electric engine of the lifting mechanism. Thus the brake switches on when the mechanism stops and the brake torque damp the oscillations of the spreader without reducing the efficiency. A normally closed brake without opening device can be installed on the leveling (balancing) rolls.
To avoid the slipping of the rope over the roll it is required that the braking torque is smaller than the torque of the friction force between the rope and the roll. T fr S Tbr , (1) where T fr is the friction torque between the rope and the roll, Nm; Tbr - braking torque, Nm; S = 1,2 1,4 - safety coefficient assuring no slipping between the rope and the roll. From the balance of roll (Fig. 3) when the rope slips, i.e. (2) Fr 2 = Fr1 e , for the friction torque we have
T fr = Dr D ( Fr 2 F1 ) = Fr1 r ( 1) , 2 2

where Dr is the roll diameter, m; e = 2,71 - base of natural logarithm; - coefficient of friction between the rope and the roll; - angle of the scope of the rope, rad; Fr1 and Fr 2 - tensile forces of the rope at both ends of the roll, N.

The tensile force of the rope Fr1 is determined by the ratio of the pulley and the weight of the spreader Gspr . For the skethc in Figure 1
Fr1 = Gspr 24

In the real structures the deviation of the rope from the vertical ( 1 and 2 ) does not exceed 6 7, so that in (3) it is possible to work with = 166. 3. Design solutions The shown in Figure 2a variant with band (strap) brake is suitable for more rolls of the spreader roller unit. The design is extremely simple. The braking torque is generated by load and does not depend on the wear of the friction surface. The determination of the parameters of the brake so that it creates braking torque corresponding to (1) and calculation of heating are well known in the literature [1].

If the hub of the roll cannot be adapted to the band (strap) brake, it is more appropriate, after the required machining, to put disk brake next to the roller disk (Fig. 2b). In this case, the braking torque will depend on the radius, on which the brake is located. Figure 4 shows a suitable structure, characterized by compactness and easy installation. Its working conditions allow not using the device for automatic adjust of the windage between the brake pads and disc, which will further simplify the structure.

4. Conclusion The proposed design solutions are discussed based on a container crane, but can be applied in other similar constructions. Using braked rolls could lead to good results in the metallurgical cranes where the carrying device is carried by sleeper (or frame), suspended in a manner similar to that shown in Figure 1 (casting, trough charging, magnet, fork -magnet, rigid-claw and etc. cranes) [6]. Figure 5 shows an example scheme of lifting pulley of metallurgical crane for supplying converters with scrap.
5. Summary The need of using devices for damping the oscillations of carrying device for some types of handling machines is pointed out; Characteristics are examined when using braked rolls in the pulley of a container crane; Relatively simple ways are proposed for remaking the normal rolls of existing structures in braked rolls.
