Ⅲ、main structure and working principle

Main drum assembly of JC28/11 drawworks mainly consists of main drum shaft, drum
body, axle thrust plate clutch ATD324H, 324WCB, connection plate, brake device PS,
input& output chain wheel （P=44.45，Z=77）. Power is put in from three-row chain,
running the main drum through ATD324H clutch and tripping the drilling pipe. While
running in, engage auxiliary brake to ensure fall at a constant speed and safely stop by brake

Sand line drum assembly for drawworks mainly consists of sand line drum shaft, drum
body, brake rim, clutch (ATD124H), chain wheel (FIG.3) The power input from four-row
chain（P=38.1，Z=57）, output from three-row（P=44.45，Z=47）to main drum chainwheel.

Fig 4
The brake system mainly consists of steel brake band, steel strap, brake block,
adjustable lead screw and tension bar (fig.4).
Sandline brake rim consist of brake handle, steel strap, brake block, balance beam
adjustment screw rod and tension bar, etc.(fig.5)
Before delivery the brake system is in the best state, after some times use, you should adjust
the brake because of the abrasion of brake block. The measure is: tension the brake strap,
tighten the bolt on the drawworks frame and shield, then loosen the bolt three rings to
ensure the clearance between brake block and brake rim is 3mm.

Adjust at this

Fig 5
The running end of brake strap (fig.6), the distance between C and AB should be
controlled in 30mm, if the distance is more than 38mm or less than 25mm, the brake can’t
work normally or danger will appeared.

You can release the cap on the brake handle

and turning the screw on the handle to adjust the
hright of the brake handle. The brake block should
be changed when the brake block was worn to
touch the fixed bolt or brake rim will be damaged.
Change the brake strap should be careful to
prevent the distortion, un-even wear also can
effect the brake function. The brake rim abrasion a.Brake rim flange diameter ： φ 970mm( φ

4.1 installation
First put the drawworks assembly in preset position. Then weld the drawworks’ frame
on skid base. Welding seam is continuous angle welding seam, with height not less than
10mm. then install the hydraulic brake, chain shield, etc.

4.2. Adjustment
After the drawworks assembly and operation process, the following adjustments are
needed:
1. Clearance between clutch friction plate and medium gear disc
Adjusting thickness of gasket can control clearance between friction disc and middle
gear plate. Clearance with single disc shall range from 1.5mm to 2mm, and total clearance
from 4.5mm to 6mm.
2.Adjustment for brake system
Adjustment of trap type brake is as referring before.

4.3 Main drum operation

Revolution of main drum is fulfilled by control valve of clutch on the driller`s box,
which is a combined press-regulator valve not only to control separation and coupling of
clutch but also to control engine accelerator Push the stem of combined pressure-regulator
valve upward, when handle exceeds 10° on dial, the clutch start to coupling and drum
revolutes. Continue to push handle forward, engine accelerator shall increase companying
with augment of rotary angle of handle. Engine accelerator shall be maximum when pushing
the handle to the end. Depending on the demand, the handle shall cease at any angle
between 10° and the end in order to control rotate speed of engine. In case you want to loose
the clutch, only need to make handle come away and it automatically returns to middle position.
During this procedure, firstly decrease accelerator, and then loose the clutch.

JC2811 DRAWWORKS OPERATION MANUAL

If pulling the handle of combined pressure-regulator valve down, only the accelerater can be
controlled, but not to couple the clutch, this operation solely applies to the situation
mounting or removing drill pipe or other operation.

4.4operation of auxiliary brake

WCB324auxilairy brake is installed on the shaft of the main drum at driller side. You
can operate the handwheel pressure valve to control the auxiliary brake. Under its Max
brake capacity (33870N.m，5.5bar ), turning the handwheel clockwise to the end can stop
the main drum when emergency happened.
The hot produced from auxiliary brake working
can be brought away by the inner circulation
water. Motor on the cooling water tank side
provide the power for circulation water. Turn on
the switch of the motor in the dog house, the
circulation of the cooling water can be kept.

Ⅴ、check and maintenance

In order to prevent parts & components from
easily-worn, lower cost of maintenance, reduce
shut-down period and prolong service life.
Designated cautions and inspection,
maintenance & lubrication should be strictly
followed.

1.Inspection items every shift

Brake should be reliable. Brake adjustment
should be correct. brake block shouldn’t be loosened.
2. Inspection items every 100 hours
n Repeat item 5.1.
n Is chain box oil level normal?

3.Inspection items every 300 hours

n Repeat items 5.1 and 5.2.
n Check whether all fasteners, keys, pins, and connections are loose.

4.Inspection items every 1000 hours completely check.

n Repeat items 5.1, 5.2& 5.3.
n Check wearing conditions of chain wheel. Change it if necessary.

5. While check, maintain other parts and components, change damaged or

seriously worn ones.

6. Maintenance in storage
n Make a complete maintenance and anti-rust treatment before storage drawworks.
n Make a complete maintenance before commissioning for long-term stored
drawworks.
Six grease nipples at each side of drawworks frame are required to add fully with
lithium-base lubrication grease every a week. (During drawworks running the lubrication is
forbidden)
