Types of Wheel Pulleys

Fixed Pulleys

Fixed pulleys have a stationary axle and are commonly used in lifting applications where direction changes are not required.

Movable Pulleys

Movable pulleys have a rotating axle and are often used in systems where the direction of force needs to be changed.

Compound Pulleys

Compound pulleys combine fixed and movable pulleys to provide a mechanical advantage in lifting heavy loads.

Examples and Applications

• Fixed pulleys are used in flagpoles to raise flags.
• Movable pulleys are found in elevators to lift and lower cars.
• Compound pulleys are preferred in construction for lifting heavy materials to higher levels.
