I want to build a foldable engine crane that can lift 2 ton of load. Can anyone tell me how to design it and draw a free body diagram complete with formula to determine loads at each point.
The 2-Ton Foldable Engine Crane is designed to lift up to 2 tons, or 4,000 pounds, of weight. This includes most engines and other heavy objects that may need to be moved in a garage or workshop setting.
The materials needed to build the 2-Ton Foldable Engine Crane include steel tubing, bolts, nuts, washers, a hydraulic jack, and various tools such as a drill, saw, and welding equipment. A complete list of materials and tools can be found in the design plans for the crane.
Yes, the 2-Ton Foldable Engine Crane is designed to be easily transported and stored. The crane can be folded up and the wheels can be removed for compact storage or transportation in a vehicle. This makes it convenient to bring to different locations or store in a small space.
The time it takes to build the 2-Ton Foldable Engine Crane will vary depending on an individual's construction abilities and access to tools. However, on average, it can take anywhere from 4-6 hours to construct the crane. This time can be shortened with the help of a friend or family member.
The Free Body Diagram (FBD) is a visual representation of the forces acting on the crane, including the weight of the load and the forces exerted by the hydraulic jack. It is an important tool in the design process as it helps to ensure that the crane is structurally sound and capable of lifting the desired weight without breaking or tipping over.
