Abstract：Winches are essential equipments for power line erection, tower assembly and other construction processes. As ultra-high voltage technology advances steadily, increasingly stringent requirements have been imposed on the safety, reliability and intelligence level of winches. Traditional mechanical winches are mostly driven by gasoline engines, which are not only troubled by cumbersome gear shifting operations, low digitalization level and high failure rates, but also cause environmental pollution, running counter to the development concept of green construction. Based on this, this paper proposes a technical transformation path that replaces traditional gasoline engines with high-efficiency electric motors. By optimizing the reducer structure and adding Internet of Things (IoT) functions, the full electrification of winches is realized. This transformation can greatly improve the safety and reliability of winches, eliminate environmental pollution, enhance the digitalization level of winches, lay a technical foundation for the subsequent intelligent upgrading of winches, and facilitate the development of power construction towards the direction of safety, green construction and high efficiency.
