Produktbeschreibung
Hoisting Appliances is a comprehensive technical treatise authored by W. E. Dommett, originally published in 1907. This authoritative volume delves deeply into the principles, design, construction, and operation of various hoisting mechanisms used in industrial and engineering applications at the turn of the 20th century. The book systematically covers a wide array of lifting devices, including cranes, winches, jacks, pulleys, and other mechanical appliances essential for raising and moving heavy loads. Dommett meticulously explains the mechanical principles underlying each type of hoisting appliance, providing detailed descriptions of their components, working mechanisms, and the materials used in their construction. The text is richly illustrated with technical diagrams and drawings, aiding readers in visualizing the internal workings and assembly of the machines discussed. Special attention is given to the calculation of stresses, load capacities, and safety factors, ensuring that readers gain a thorough understanding of both the theoretical and practical aspects of hoisting technology. The book also explores the evolution of hoisting appliances, tracing advancements from simple manual devices to more complex steam and electrically powered machinery. It addresses the challenges faced in various industries, such as construction, mining, and shipping, and offers practical solutions for improving efficiency and safety in lifting operations. Dommett includes numerous case studies and real-world examples, highlighting best practices and common pitfalls encountered in the field. Hoisting Appliances serves as an invaluable resource for engineers, mechanics, students, and anyone interested in the history and development of industrial machinery. Its clear explanations, technical rigor, and historical perspective make it a classic reference work, reflecting the state of engineering knowledge in the early 20th century while providing foundational insights that remain relevant to this day.
