Aerial work platforms are a type of aerial work engineering machinery and equipment that are used extensively in industries, gardens, municipalization, construction, and other locations. They are primarily used for firefighting, rescue and relief, construction installation, and maintenance, among other purposes. In order to meet the demands of economic and social development, more advanced and reasonable aerial work platforms must be designed immediately. This is because the urbanization process is leading to a larger using domain and quantity of aerial work platforms, as well as an increase in operational difficulty and a more complex working environment.
focuses on the GTBZ25 airborne work platform, which was created by Runshare. We used 3D design in Pro/E and the collaborative design process. Stability as a critical issue has been calculated in consideration of the tire reaction in order to guarantee the safety of operating personnel. To verify the reasonableness of the hinge point force, the outcomes of the co-simulation of the primary bearing hinge point in the superstructure using ADAMS and MATLAB have been compared with the outcomes of conventional manual calculations.
The finite element program Workbench has been used to study the stress and strain of the prototype's major stress components, including the boom, rotating table, and frame. Additionally, the stability of the derricking cylinder, the bundle cylinder of the telescopic arm, and the leveling oil cylinder in the aerial work platform has been examined, and the pivot pin's main points have been chosen and examined. The engine hydraulic system and slewing mechanism have been estimated in type selection to make more competitive products in the market, meet the reasonable cost, and achieve the intended design goal.
Following a number of tests, the trial prototype satisfies the design goals and objectives. Finally, a third-party testing agency was recruited to conduct prototype testing, and the results of the test qualified the theoretical foundation for the Runshare GTBZ series aerial working platform research and design.
