FEM Based Statics Analysis of the Main Steel Structure of Bucket Wheel Stacker-Reclaimer

Article Preview

Abstract:

Bucket wheel stacker-reclaimer is kind of a typical multi-rigid-body system. Its main steel structure consists of bucket wheel, forearm frame, column tower, balance frame and pull rod, etc. All components connected with each other basically by welding. And the integral structure can realize whole luffing motion and turning motion. Reclaiming arm, central bracket and pitch steel structure of counterweight arm are the structure of its core. This paper use ANSYS to create the simplified finite element model of the steel structure and analyze the distribution of loads in all types of conditions. Loading solving, then cloud picture of displacement and that of stress of the overall luffing mechanism was concluded, so as to check the carrying capacity and strength of the structure.
