In this study, an innovative 25-ton-capacity scissor lift was designed for the first time, and a prototype was produced in Onder Group Inc. Within the scope of the study, a rolling bearing system was designed instead of the conventional welded scissor-hinge connection system. Static and strength calculations were made using finite element analysis for comparison purposes. As a result of the analysis, it was determined that the stress distribution on the roller bearing system was more homogeneous and at lower values (≈60 MPa) than the welded hinge system. In addition, a detachable (bolted) joint was obtained instead of a fixed (welded) joint with the designed rolling bearing system. With the design analyses carried out within the scope of the study, a particular joint-clamp system was made to expand the surface areas of the welded joints.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
