(Askeri) VİNÇ: Standart askeri araçlarda genellikle ön tampon gerisine yerleştirilmiş ve şasinin yan kollarına tespit edilmiş bir tertibat. Vinç tali intikal tertibatının, vites kutusundan aldığı motor gücüyle çalışır ve kendi aracını veya diğer bir aracı, çok çamurlu veya arızalı bir yerden çıkartıp kurtarmakta kullanılır
Machinery with which a vessel can operate its mooring ropes and cargo wires which are drum driven by many means to tension/slack mooring ropes and wires
Quality winches feature baked- enamel finishes with plated ratchet locks and high carbon-steel pinion gears Winches are rated by weight capacity, ranging from about 900 to 2,000 lbs capacity Gear ratios from 3-to-1 up to 5-to-1 are common Some models have an optional ratio as high as 12-to-1
A machine consisting of a drum on an axle, a pawl, and a crank handle, with or without gearing, to give increased mechanical advantage when hauling on a rope
1 : On a boat, a mechanical device that is used to tighten lines, especially halyards and sheets 2 : A powerful machine with one or more drums on which to coil a rope, cable, or chain for hauling or hoisting
1 A mechanical device for hauling in a line; 2 A device with a revolving drum, around which a line may be turned in order to provide mechanical advantage in hoisting or hauling; 3 A hand or power-operated mechanical device for exerting increased pull on a line or chain
Manual or power device employing a drum with cable or rope for pulling objects where great power is required Power generated by vehicle engine and transmitted through power take-off on transmission
lifting device consisting of a horizontal cylinder turned by a crank on which a cable or rope winds pull or lift up with or as if with a winch; "winch up the slack line
With two or three gears and connected one or other 'grinder', winches enable sails to be hauled in and released, minimising the force required by the crew We also have small winches not connected to a grinder and are operated by a 'winch handle'
If you winch an object or person somewhere, you lift or lower them using a winch. He would attach a cable around the chassis of the car and winch it up on to the canal bank. to lift something or someone up using a winch
A winch is a mechanical device that converts the rotary motion of a handle into the linear pull of a line (can you tell I stole that description?) It's basically a drum around which a line, usually a sheet, is wrapped A handle is inserted into the top and turned, causing the drum to turn and the line to be pulled in They have gearing that allows mere mortals to pull in lines with heavy loads On our boat we will use winches primarily to raise the mainsail and to control the jib sheets The winch handles are removable, allowing the lines to be wrapped and un-wrapped easily A word of caution here: winch handles sink and are expensive Another word of caution here: Watch your fingers! Winches are notorious for pinching (or breaking fingers) The lines are often under extreme tension but you can't really tell (kind of like hot granite rocks!)
