| For the band, see Pulley (band).For the village, see Pulley, Shropshire.Pulleys on a ship.In this context, pulleys are usually known as blocks.Pulleys are used to change the direction of an applied force, transmit rotational motion, or realize a mechanical advantage in either a linear or rotational system of motion.Rope and pulley systems
1.Rope and pulley systems
Rope and pulley systems (the rope may be a light line or a strong cable) are characterized by the use of a single rope transmitting a linear motive force (in tension) to a load through one or more pulleys for the purpose of pulling the load (often against gravity.They are often included in the list of simple machines.In a system of a single rope and pulleys, the mechanical advantage gained is ideally the number of pulleys in the system (if one pulley is used only to change the direction of the load).Since a slender cable is more easily managed than a fat one (albeit shorter and stronger), pulley systems are often the preferred method of applying mechanical advantage to the pulling force of a winch (as can be found in a lift crane).In practice, the more pulleys there are, the less efficient a system is.This is due to sliding friction in the system where cable meets pulley and in the rotational mechanism of each pulley.It is not recorded when or by whom the pulley was first developed.It is believed however that Archimedes developed the first documented block and tackle pulley system, as recorded by Plutarch.Plutarch reported that Archimedes moved an entire warship, laden with men, using compound pulleys and his own strength.Fixed A fixed or class 1 pulley has a fixed axle.That is, the axle is "fixed" or anchored in place.Movable A movable or class 2 pulley has a free axle.That is, if one end of the rope is anchored, pulling on the other end of the rope will apply a doubled force to the object attached to the pulley.Compound A compound pulley is a combination fixed and movable pulley system.In equilibrium, the force F on the pulley axle is equal and opposite to the sum of the tensions in each line leaving the pulley, and these tensions are equal.Another simple pulley system similar to diagram 2, but in which the lifting force is redirected downward.The simplest theory of operation for a pulley system assumes that the pulleys and lines are weightless, and that there is no energy loss due to friction.It is also assumed that the lines do not stretch.The single fixed pulley is installed on the crane.The two movable pulleys (joined together) are attached to the hook.In equilibrium, the total force on the pulley must be zero.This means that the force on the axle of the pulley is shared equally by the two lines looping through the pulley.The situation is schematically illustrated in diagram 1.For the case where the lines are not parallel, the tensions in each line are still equal, but now the vector sum of all forces is zero.The product of the weight lifted times the distance it is moved is equal to the product of the lifting force (the tension in the lifting line) times the distance the lifting line is moved.The weight lifted divided by the lifting force is defined as the advantage of the pulley system.It is important to notice that a system of pulleys does not change the amount of work done.The pulley simply allows trading force for distance: you pull with less force, but over a longer distance.In diagram 2, a single movable pulley allows weight W to be lifted with only half the force needed to lift the weight without assistance.Force x distance) remains the same.W, with an additional pulley redirecting the lifting force downward.An additional pulley redirecting the lifting force has been added.Note that the axles of the fixed and movable pulleys have been combined.The addition of a fixed pulley to the single pulley system can yield an increase of advantage.In diagram 3, the addition of a fixed pulley yields a lifting advantage of 3.As in the case of diagram 2a, another pulley may be added to reverse the direction of the lifting force, but with no increase in advantage.This process can be continued indefinitely for ideal pulleys with each additional pulley yielding a unit increase in advantage.For real pulleys friction among rope and pulleys will increase as more pulleys are added to the point that no advantage is possible.It puts a limit for the number of pulleys we can use in practice.The above pulley systems are known collectively as block and tackle pulley systems.In diagram 4a, a block and tackle system with advantage 4 is shown.Other pulley systems are possible, and some can deliver an increased advantage with fewer pulleys than the block and tackle system.The advantage of the block and tackle system is that each pulley and line is subjected to equal tensions and forces.Efficient design dictates that each line and pulley be capable of handling its load, and no more.Other pulley designs will require different strengths of line and pulleys depending on their position in the system, but a block and tackle system can use the same line size throughout, and can mount the fixed and movable pulleys on a common axle.This allows for mechanical power, torque, and speed to be transmitted across axes and, if the pulleys are of differing diameters, a mechanical advantage to be realized.Look up Pulley in
