Container cranes, also known as gantry cranes, are large pieces of equipment used in port terminals and container yards for lifting and moving shipping containers. They are typically tall structures with a long horizontal beam, or gantry, that runs along a rail track. The gantry is supported by tall columns or towers, and it can move along the rail track to reach containers on different parts of the terminal.

The equalizing beam is an important component of a container crane. It is a horizontal beam that connects the two legs or towers of the crane and helps to distribute the weight of the gantry and the load evenly between the two sides of the crane.

The equalizing beam is typically made of steel and is located near the top of the crane, where the legs or towers meet the gantry. It is designed to withstand the heavy loads and forces that are generated during the lifting and moving of containers. The equalizing beam is an essential component of a container crane, and it helps to ensure that the crane can operate safely and efficiently in port terminals and container yards.

General Composition Of Equalizing Beam

The equalizing beam of a container crane is typically made up of several components that work together to provide a strong and rigid connection between the two legs or towers of the crane. The composition of the equalizing beam can vary depending on the design and manufacturer of the crane, but it typically includes the following components:

  • Main beam: The main beam is the central component of the equalizing beam. It is a long, horizontal beam that runs between the two legs or towers of the crane and provides the primary support for the gantry.
  • Bracing: The equalizing beam is supported by diagonal bracing that connects the main beam to the legs or towers of the crane. The bracing helps to distribute the weight of the gantry and the load evenly between the two sides of the crane.
  • Crossbeam: In some designs, a crossbeam is used to connect the two ends of the equalizing beam. The crossbeam helps to reinforce the structure of the equalizing beam and improve its stability.
  • Mounting brackets: The equalizing beam is mounted to the legs or towers of the crane using mounting brackets. The brackets are typically made of steel and are bolted securely to the legs or towers.
  • Tensioning devices: To ensure that the equalizing beam is properly tensioned and remains rigid during operation, tensioning devices such as turnbuckles or hydraulic cylinders are used. These devices can be adjusted to apply tension to the bracing and ensure that the equalizing beam remains in the correct position.

The equalizing beam is an essential component of a container crane, and it's designed to ensure that it can withstand the heavy loads and forces that are generated during the lifting and moving of containers.
