safety requirements of the Machinery Directive, as amended. This standard st andard also establishes interfaces interfaces between the user (purchaser) and the designer, as well as between the designer and the component

manufacturer, in order to form a basis for selecting cranes and components. This European Standard is a type C standard as stated in EN ISO 12100:2010. The machinery concerned and the extent to which hazards, hazardous situations and events are covered cover ed are indicated in the t he scope of this standard. st andard. When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or B standards, the provisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other standards, for machines that have been designed and built according to the provisions of this type C standard.

Grades and qualities

European Standards specify materials and speciic values. This standard gives a preferred selection.

Steels in accordance with the following European Standards shall be used as tube material: — EN 10083-2; — EN 1021 10210-2; 0-2; — EN 1021 10216-3; 6-3; — EN 10277-2; — EN 1030510305-1; 1; — EN 10305-2; — EN 13445-2.

(where S 0 is the

original cross-sectional area);

Grades and qualities of materials used in other parts of cylinders or mounting interfaces of cylinders shall be selected in accordance with EN 13001-3-1. 5

Proof of static strength

5.1 General

A proof of static strength by calculation is intended to prevent excessive deformations due to yielding of the material, elastic instability and fracture of structural members or connections. Dynamic factors given in EN 13001-2 or relevant product standards are used to produce equivalent static loads to simulate dynamic effects. Also, load increasing effects due to deformation shall be considered. The use of the theory of plasticity for calculation of ultimate load bearing capacity is not considered acceptable accep table within the terms of this standard. The proof shall be carried out for structural struct ural members and connections while taking into account the most unfavourable load effects from the load combinations A, B or C in accordance with EN 13001-2 or relevant product standards. The cylinders are either active or passive. Active cylinders are moving and thereby increasing the potential energy of the crane. Passive cylinders are either not moving or moving thereby decreasing the potential energy of the crane. As the forces applied to the cylinder by the crane structure are computed in accordance with with EN E N 13001-2, 13001-2, they they are are already increased by the partial safety safet y factors γ p and relevant dynamic factors. Formulae (1 (1)) and (2) give design pressures pSd caused by forces acting on the cylinder from the crane structure. In addition, additional pressures  pSde caused by internal phenomena in the hydraulic circuit shall be considered and added to the design pressures  pSd . Such internally generated pressures can be caused e.g. by regenerative connections, pressure drop in return lines or cushioning. In case a cylinder is intended to be tested as a component at higher pressure than the design pressure  pSd , this load case shall also be taken into account in the proof of static st atic strength, and in which case the test pressure shall be multiplied multiplied by a partial partia l safety factor γ p equal to 1,05.  pSd in the piston side chamber or in the rod side chamber shall be computed from The designforce pressure the design F Sd η due to friction. frict ion. Sd taking into account the force direction and the cylinder eficiency

An eficiency factor Ψ is used to handle the effect of cylinder friction. For active cylinders Ψ has the value of 1 /η and for passive cylinders Ψ has the value ofη. 14

 

 

BS EN 13001-3-6:2018 EN 13001-3-6:2018 (E)

For the piston side chamber, the design pressure is given by:  

(1)) (1

where Sd is the external F Sd ex ternal design force; D is the piston diameter.

Ψ is set to η for passive cylinders and to 1/η for active cylinde c ylinders. rs.

For the rod side chamber the design pressure is given by:

 

(2)

where F Sd ex ternal design force; Sd is the external D is the t he piston diameter; d  is  is the t he rod diameter;

Ψ is set to η for passive cylinders and to 1/η for active cylinders;  pSde is additional pressure caused by internal phenomena.

Unless justiied information for the value of η is used, the value 1,1 shall be assigned to Ψ.

This standard is based on nominal stresses, i.e. stresses calculated using traditional elastic strength of materials theory which in general neglect localized stress non-uniformities. When more accurate alternative methods of stress calculation are used, such as inite element analysis, using those stresses

for the proof given in this standard may yield y ield inordinately inordinately conservative conservative results. 5.2

6.2

Stress histories

The stress history is a numerical presentation of all stress variations that are signiicant for fatigue.

Stress histories shall be determined either through stress calculations or measurements, in both cases simulating the loading imposed on the cylinder. For the proof of fatigue strength, stress histories are expressed as single-parameter representations of frequencies of occurrence of stress ranges by using methods such as the hysteresis counting method (Rain low or Reservoir method) with the inluence of mean stress neglected. Each of the stress ranges is suficiently described by its upper and lower extreme value.

Therefore, the stress ranges in Formula (26) can (26) can be substituted with the corresponding force ranges F  Δ or  or pressure ranges pΔ.

These values are related to the duty and decisively depend on one of: — number of working cycles and exter external nal force spect spectrum; rum; — number of pressure pressure cycles and related pressure spect spectrum rum in piston side chamber; — number of pressure pressure cycles and related pressure spect spectrum rum in rod side chamber; For thermally stress relieved or non-welded components, the compressive portion of the stress range may be reduced to 60 %.

When a class S  is   is referred to in the proof classiication is based upon m = 3 and is speciied in of fatigue strength for a cylinder part, the value of the stress history parameter s3  shall be taken in accordance with the Table 2. 2.
