庄司歯車エンジニアリング Product Lineup

We have developed and adopted numerous application products equipped with a unique load-holding function (Shoji-lock). <Shoji-lock Product Features> - When rotation is applied from the input side, the output side decelerates and transmits power, but rotation is not possible from the output side, which means it has a self-locking function. In other words, it can hold the load at the desired position without the need for brakes. - Compared to worm gear reducers with the same self-locking function, it is highly efficient. Additionally, while the worm has input and output axes that are perpendicular, our design features input and output shafts that are in a straight line (inline), making it considerably compact, space-saving, and lightweight. - Unlike ratchets or one-way clutches, it can hold the load at any position when motion is stopped, regardless of the direction of rotation. Furthermore, there is no ratchet noise, making it suitable for use in quiet environments. - It has a basic sealed structure (equivalent to IP65), is maintenance-free, and is suitable for explosion-proof areas. - We offer a variety of application products, including gear reducers that utilize this self-locking mechanism, winches, and linear actuators (rack jacks). - Stainless steel versions are also available for cleanroom applications across various models. - There are cases where a switch from small hydraulic jacks is being considered.

This is a compact and lightweight winch equipped with our company's self-locking mechanism (Shoji-Lock). It holds the load at the position where the workpiece is lifted. Additionally, it can be restarted from any position without releasing the brake, whether in forward or reverse rotation. Its lightweight and compact design allows for space-saving, and it has been adopted and well-received in various fields. In addition to the manual-only (SWM series) models, there are also electric tool drill driver-compatible (SWE series) models available. The load capacity ranges from 50 kg to 300 kg. Some models are made of stainless steel suitable for clean rooms and vacuum devices, while others are made of aluminum for further weight reduction. The manual-only models are dustproof. They can be widely used in places without power, for disaster preparedness, energy-saving measures, defense and military applications, and explosion-proof measures. Since it is not a ratchet, it operates very quietly, making it suitable for nighttime work and environments such as hospitals, laboratories, and testing facilities. The stainless steel models are not only used in clean rooms but also widely adopted in marine and ship-related applications. The aluminum models are lightweight, making them very convenient for portability. They are rated IP65 and have been adopted in medical devices, food machinery, and defense and military applications. With easy operability and a safety structure that does not require a brake, it allows for easy operation by women and the elderly, helping to alleviate labor shortages.

This is a compact inline reduction gear equipped with our company's self-locking mechanism (Shoji-Lock). For example, it can hold a load even if the movement is stopped during the ascent, rotation, or tilting of the device, making it suitable for requests such as wanting to conduct experiments or perform tasks at a stopped position. Another feature is that traditional worm gear reducers with self-locking functions require a considerable amount of space because the input and output shafts are orthogonal. In contrast, our design has the input and output shafts aligned in a straight line (inline), allowing for a lightweight, smart, and compact design that is easy to integrate into various devices. The lineup can be selected based on output shaft torque and reduction ratios, with options available for output shaft torque ranging from 5 to 100 kgm (load × torque arm). Some products are also available in all stainless steel for clean room and vacuum equipment compatibility. The basic model is coated with black Teflon, which is resistant to rust. Additionally, it can operate and maintain load even without power during emergencies. It is being introduced as a mechanical component in various fields, including defense and military applications, plant-related industries, semiconductor manufacturing equipment, automotive assembly lines, and device lid opening and closing. It is rated IP65, making it resistant to dust as well.

This is a compact and lightweight rack-type jack (linear actuator) equipped with our company's self-locking mechanism (Shoji-Lock). It holds the load at the stopped position while raising and lowering the workpiece. Additionally, it can be restarted from any position without releasing the brake, whether in the upward or downward direction. Its lightweight and compact design allows for space-saving, and it has been adopted and well-received in various fields. Unlike traditional screw jacks, the rack type offers overwhelmingly faster ascent and descent speeds, characterized by its high efficiency and ease of operation. In addition to the manual-only (SLM series) models, there are also electric models (SLE series) that can be driven by power tool drill drivers. The surface comes standard with a black Teflon coating that is resistant to rust. It can be widely used for disaster preparedness, energy-saving measures, and defense/military applications. It is also suitable for universities, research institutes, testing facilities, and explosion-proof measures. Recently, more customers have been considering it as an alternative to small hydraulic jacks, taking environmental issues into account. It is compatible with commercially available round rack rods (manufactured by KHK). (Rack rods are not included.)
