Scope
GB/T 18224-2008 is the English-translated version of 桥式抓斗卸船机安全规程.
GB/T 18224-2008 sets out the safety technical requirements for bridge type grab ship unloaders used to discharge bulk cargoes such as coal, ore and sand, covering design, manufacture, installation and testing, use and maintenance, and inspection and repair.
It gives discard criteria and design rules for the main components - wire ropes, drums, sheaves, wheels, gears, brakes, trolley rails and reducers - and requirements for the grab, the operator's cab (noise not above 75 dB(A)), the lift, the hydraulic system, lubrication and the welded metal structure, including non-destructive testing of important welds.
The electrical clauses deal with the main transformer, switchgear protection degrees, lighting levels, cabling, earthing resistance and lightning protection, and the safety devices clause specifies the overload limiter (warning at 90%, cut-off at 110% of rated capacity), storm tie-downs, buffers, limit switches, interlocks, fault monitoring and a wind speed alarm.
It replaces GB 18224-2000: the grab and the lift now have their own clauses, requirements for overall stability, hydraulic components, separate lighting supply, bonding of hinged joints and the wind speed alarm have been added, and the sheave fleet angle and overload limiter accuracy have been revised.
Issued on 27 May 2008, in force since 1 December 2008. Classification: ICS 03.220.40, 53.020.20, CCS R46. The document runs to 8 pages, delivered complete in English translation.

Foreword
This standard replaces GB 18224-2000, Safety code for the bridge type grab ship unloader.
Compared with GB 18224-2000, the main technical differences of this standard are as follows:
- the statement in the Scope that similar ship unloaders used at power plants, steel works and raw material wharves may refer to this standard has been deleted;
- the detailed requirements for the equipment records of the ship unloader have been deleted, and requirements for the overall stability of the ship unloader have been added (see 3.5);
- the grab and the lift are each dealt with in a separate clause (see Clause 5 and Clause 7);
- the fleet angle of the wire rope entering and leaving the sheave has been modified (see 4.3.2);
- the requirements for the gantry travel rails have been deleted, and the loosening of trolley rail clamping plates has been added (see 4.7);
- the content relating to the operator's cab has been modified (see Clause 6);
- requirements for the main hydraulic components have been added (see Clause 8);
- the requirements for the lubrication method of the ship unloader have been deleted;

- requirements for the electrical system at the hinged joints of the metal structure have been added (see 11.5.4);
- the requirement for the overall error of the overload limiter has been adjusted; the requirements for skew adjustment and the display device have been deleted;
- content on the wind speed alarm has been added (see 12.7).
