A hanging bracket is, as the name suggests, a fitting used to hang devices. There are various types of hanging bracket, such as I-bolts, which are screwed into the female threads of the equipment, and hanging bracket that are attached to the equipment from the beginning.
Hanging brackets attached to tanks are sometimes referred to as "lugs" or "lifting lugs."
Other types of hanging bracket are called "trunnions" and are used on very large tanks when it is difficult to remove the hanging belts or wire ropes from the hanging bracket after installation.
Hanging brackets are mainly used in heavy crises. They are also used on motors, control and power panels, and tanks. These devices are generally very heavy and need to be unloaded by unick trucks or cranes.
In many cases, a unick or crane is used for installation as well, so they are used to safely suspend the equipment.
If I-bolts can be installed, they can be removed and operated as I-bolts are no longer needed once installed.
When selecting hanging brackets, the weight of the equipment is important. Especially with large equipment, the center of gravity is often unbalanced, so careful selection is necessary.
Particular attention should be paid to the fact that hanging brackets are not always used vertically over the equipment. Sometimes they are used at an angle of 45° or more. The load on the hanging brackets will also vary, so it is necessary to carefully consider the posture in which the equipment will be fished when it is actually installed.
For I-bolts, the manufacturer provides information on the load to be used, so it is easy to select the right type, but for lifting lugs, you will need to design the lugs yourself, so strength calculations are necessary. In particular, it is necessary to carefully consider not only the strength calculation of the lifting lug itself, but also the strength of the welding part when it is welded to the tank.
Thus, the selection of hanging brackets requires consideration of the strength of the equipment and the lifting posture when actually carrying in and installing the equipment, so a simple design could be the cause of a major accident.
