' 7 Claims, 5 Drawing Figures 1 MOBILE LOAD HANDLING MACHINES The object of this invention is to provide an improved load handling machine primarily in the form of a crane for carrying out a variety of load handling operations. Practical advantages of the invention in this and various other respects and also constructional features will be apparent from the following disclosure.
In the accompanying drawings:
FIG. 1 is a side elevation of the machine or crane with the jib or boom lowered.
FIG. 2 is a cross section taken on the line II II of FIG. 1
FIG. 3 is a detail plan view of the front wheel steering and inturning mechanism FIG. 4 is a diagrammatic elevation showing the machine with the jib or boom raised and the chassis retracted and FIG. 5 is a diagrammatic elevation showing the machine provided with a fork lift attachment.
The chassis 1 comprises forward and rearward portions 2, 3 respectively carrying the front and rear wheels 4, 5, which portions 2, 3 are relatively movable or slidable in a fore and aft direction for obtaining variation in the distance apart or wheel base of the front and rear wheels 4, 5. Thus a rearwardly extending member or beam 30 from the forward chassis portion 2 slidably engages the rearward portion 3 between guide rollers 31 in the latter (see FIG. 2)
The beam 30 has a swivel mounting about the fore and aft axis at 35 with the forward chassis portion 2 to permit relative articulation or oscillation of the chassis portions 2, 3 about said axis when travelling over uneven ground.
A telescopic jib or boom is pivotally connected by means of tie linkage 6 to a mounting member or cardicatedat Conversely on extension of the rams 8 the links l2, 13 are moved towards one another and likewise the chassis portions 2, 3 for reducing the wheelbase i.e., as the jib 10 is raised or luffed to the inclined position.
In addition to such action of varying the wheelbase with jib movement in the interest of greater stability of 1 the vehicle according to the attitude of the jib 10,the linkage 12, 13, 14 supports the pivotally mounted jib 10 in relation to the chassis portions 2, 3. Furthermore the upright arrangement of the rams 8 and tie linkage 6 results in rapid operation of the jib 10 being obtainablefrom the horizontal to the almost upright position and vice versa.
The main body 10a of the jib 10 is shown provided with a winch 11 at its rear end which is preferably a hydraulic motor driven atlla rope 16 from the winch 11 passing forwardly to a pulley 17 at the head 10d of the jib extension 10b from where the rope 16 passes about the pulley 19 of a pulley block or hook 39 and then rearwardly about a further head pulley 18 to an anchorage 16a at the rear end of the jib extension 10b. The arrangement is such that as the jib 10 is extended or retracted, compensation of the effective length of the rope 16 is obtained so that .the position of the pulley block 39 in relation to the jib head 10d remains substantially unaltered during jib extension or retraction which thus does not effect the operation of the pulley block by the winch 11. The ram 100 operates the jib 10 riage 7 longitudinally movable relative to the rearward I Connectedto the jib 10 at preferably the pivotal connection 9 of the rams 8 thereto are a pair of mutually inclined links l2, 13 which are pivotally connected at their lower ends at 32, 33 to respective chassis portions 2, 3. Further mutually inclined links 14 are pivotally connected from mid points or thereabouts at 34 of the first mentioned links l2, 13 to a common pivotal connection 15 with the carriage 7 in order to stabilise the latter. Such linkage is duplicated at each side of the vehicle, (see FIG. 2) and as shown in FIG. 1 the links 12, 13, 14 define a parallelogrammic link formation with the rams 8 acting substantially diagonally in relation to said formation.
The carriage 7 is shown movable by rollers 37 in guideways 36 in the rear chassis portion 3.
On retraction of the rams 8 the action of the links 12, 13 is to thrust the chassis portions 2, 3 away from one another in order to increase the wheelbase of the front and rear wheels 4, 5 to the maximum condition shown, the fully retracted position of the front wheels being infor extension as indicated at 10c. (FIG. 4).
For travelling movement of the vehicle, the front wheels 4 are shown driven by hydraulic wheel motors 49 and the front wheels 4 are in-tumable for obtaining swivelling movement of the vehicle for jib slewing about a turn table or other pivotal mounting at the rear wheels 5, preferably by differential swivel mechanism as set forth in British Pat. No. l,297,l l3, commonly owned herewith.
Referring to FIG. 3', steering of the front wheels 4 for travelling purposes is shown effected by a 'pair of hydraulic rams 40 acting from fixed structure of the forward chassis portion 2 on one end 43 of a double armed lever 41 pivotally mounted at 42, the other end of the lever 41 being pivotally connected at 44 to and between a pair of hydraulic rams 45 pivotally connected at 46 to'swivel or king pin mounting 48 of the front wheel stub axles on the front axle beam-47.
Appropriate operation of the rams 40 effects steering movement of the wheels 4, the rams 45 remaining inoperative and serving as a track rod. However when intuming of the'front wheels 4 is required as at 4b, the rams 40 remain inoperative to lock the lever 41 from which the rams 45 extend to effect in-turning of the wheels 4 about the king pin mounting 48.
An internal combustion engine (not shown) is conveniently carried by the forward chassis portion 2 for driving one or more pumps in supplying hydraulic fluid can be such that it enables unhindered operation of a fork lift'unit 20 (FIG. 5) to be effected at the forward end of the vehicle in the manner indicated at 20a, the
unit 20 being pivotally carried at 21 at the front end of the forward chassis portion 2 for back and forth angular movement by ram operation 26 in engaging the forks 22 with a load and lifting the latter. Conversely when the fork lift attachment is retracted to its minimum height unhindered operation of the jib 10 is possible including forward telescopic extension in the horizontal position During operation of the jib 10 the forks 22 may be swung back to an inoperative position about transverse pivotal mounting 23 against the column 24 of the attachment. The fork lift unit 20 may be operated in any known or suitable manner.
With the jib 10 in the horizontal position shown the chassis 1 is fully extended for maximum wheelbase and stability of the vehicle for operation of the fork lift unit 20.
As will be appreciated from the foregoing the machine as shown in FIG. is capable of carrying out a wide variety of load handling operations by appropriate operation of the crane jib and/or the fork lift unit either separately or in conjunction with one 'another.
