Advanced-Technology High-Capacity Hoist-Drive System

Abstract

Studies of current airborne hoist drive systems for handling external loads indicate that use of present technology to design hoist systems with larger capacities will result in excessive weights, incompatible configurations, complex controls, and other undesirable factors. A pneumatic air-turbine motor drive shows the best potential for powering high-capacity systems. For helicopter hoisting applications, there is no practical limit for system capacity. This report documents a program of design and design analysis of an advanced technology hoist-drive subsystem applicable to a family of cargo hoists with capacities ranging from 12.5 to 50 tons.
