7• DESIGN OF RYDRAULIC SCGSOR LIFT

P DESIGN OF BYDRAULIC SCISSOR LIFT FOR FOLLOWING SPECIFICATION :

>SPEC CANON:
•f• Material :- Mild Steel (MS)
• Loading capacity,kg-3000
•fi Initial height,mm-0(ground level)
•t• dimensions of base frame are 2O00mm x 3O00mm

7- SOLUTION:-

1) Design of link for bending:

Where, M= Maximum Bending moment on the link considered as

beam.
I= Moment of inertia
Y= Distance of neutral axis from the ends

g • Allowable bendlng stress

For a link design it had been considered that, the entire load was acting on half
of link length.
Length of entire link = 2850 mm

W (total force perpendicular to the llnk) —2 I Q x w

Load on 1 link
37500
= 9375 N
Actual load on one link,
9375cos1O^ 9232.57 N
Now ,

9232.57
1 x 1425 xW

So W - 13.95 N/mm

Maximum bending moment,

w”
9
- t3 95 x t425 = 1687968.97 II

Assume, v• end b • t0h

bh^ 20 x 100*
I - 12 - $$ - 13333333.13 m

Substituting In

We get, h=18.24
=20mm

Therefore, the Ilnk dimension was 20 x 200 x 2850 mm.

P = Total force applied on pin (N)

A = Cross section are under in shear (mm’)

Therefore, D= 19.54 - 2Smm

Considerationsmade during the design and fabrication ol a single acting cylinder

was as follows:
a. Functionality of the design
b. Manufacturabllity
The hydraulic cylinder was mounted in inclined position. The total load
acting on the cylinder consists of:
• Mass to be put on lift= 2000 kg Taking FOS = 1.5 for mass in pallet
2000 x 1.5 = Z000 kg
• Dead weight of lift
=800kg
Total Mass= 3000+800= 3800kg Total load = 3800 x 9.81 = 37278Ft= 37S00N
This load was actlng on two CYL.
Now the maximum force will act on the cylinder, when the cylinder was in shut down
position i.e.
when the scissor links were closed. For calculations we will consider angle 10”
Load acting on 1
cylinder (with considering dead weight and factor of safety).
37500/2=18750N
Actual load on 1 cylinder,

187S0coyt0* - 184d5N y8500N

For cylinder deslgr we use pressure was 30 bar I.e. 3 N/mm’

Ther•* ••

•8g.7• IN mm

Therefore we selected 100 mm diametrlc cylinder.

2) Design of link for buckling-

According to Euler's Formula Method,
Czlgcal Locd - Pg, - y

“” /. - Equivalent length of link

I = Moment of inertia
E = Modulus of Elasticity
We know that, In our condition one end was fixed and other end was free. Therefore,
by standard
consideration Equivalent length of link = 2 x Length nf the link
Length of link 2850mm
Also, Modulus of Elasticity (E) = 210 GPa =210 x 10’ N/mm°
Therefore,

We know that,

Here, calculated trlttCal stress was less than the standard vaIu• of teoe j air\t
Therefore, design
will be safe.

Pin is thema)orfactorIn scissorflfter. it playedan Important role In joining the

links wlth the top
and bottom Irame. We know that In scit1or lifter, pln goes undar shear
