Types of Wheel Pulleys
-
Fixed Pulleys
Fixed pulleys are stationary and change the direction of the force applied. They are commonly used in flagpoles or lifting systems.
-
Movable Pulleys
Movable pulleys can move along with the load being lifted, providing a mechanical advantage. They are often seen in construction sites or gym equipment.
-
Compound Pulleys
Compound pulleys combine fixed and movable pulleys to increase the mechanical advantage even further. They are ideal for heavy lifting applications like elevators or cranes.
