Hall crank

Series Ia of the MAV with the outer frame and Hall's cranks

With Hallsche crank part of the drive has been named, dating back to the early days of locomotive development. It takes its name from Joseph Hall, who was 1st machine master at Joseph Anton von Maffei from 1839 to 1857 .

The Hall cranks were a design element to save the internal engine and the expensive bolster axle including the internal controls in steam locomotives, which in the early days of the railway all still had external frames . The drive and coupling axles have been extended outwards through the frame. At the end of the axis were cranks to which the parts of the control were attached. Their application was greatly influenced by the development of the Crampton locomotive , in which the very low-lying large locomotive boiler required an outer frame. This also required the Hall cranks.

Steam locomotives with outer frames and Hall cranks were manufactured until around 1900 and were particularly widespread in southern Germany and Austria-Hungary . The development of the inner frame with an external control made it possible to dispense with Hall cranks. This type of drive was also used in some electric locomotives from the early days of the DR . Locomotives with outer frames and Hall cranks are special museum exhibits because of their rarity.
