Photography (Urban Exploration)
This photo is an image of a very old pulley and gear system used for a heavy weight service elevator. It was still working when this picture was taken and you had to pull a small chain to engage the motor to move the elevator up and down. the thing was very shaky and unstable though.
F*** that!! I have a life long fear of elevators after being stuck on one once. Especially never would I get on an old hunk of junk elevator like that lol.
cool cool my friend...
It seems like you have good knowledge and interest in mechanical engineering.
Thats good @stray and Thank you for sharing this pic.
Steem on and stay blissful.
Excellent photography. It's the art of urbanisation. Thanks for sharing such a good
I think these were basically used in conveyor belt in coal and steel industry.
I think these are outdated now a days and mostly in developed countries it is totally outdated.
A bygone era when the U.S. was a manufacturing nation?
yes, It was in a very old building in Philadelphia. North East Kensington Area
@stray,
Wow it's history but still working! So, wonderful photography of it and you gave us a nice introduction! Great work friend!
Cheers~
Very interesting engineering pic, thanks for sharing this
actually i have not seen such a pulley system before..only have heard of them in the science class..so thanks alot my friend :)
