Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and a device for controlling the crane functions and load paths of hydraulic crane drives of a mobile telescopic jib crane.
  • Mobile telescopic jib cranes of this type are increasingly being used in ever-expanding fields of application that go beyond the classic fields of application. They are therefore equipped with a wide range of additional equipment, such as concrete buckets, grabs and the like, and are e.g. used in handling and general cargo operations or for pouring concrete foundations. In their actual work areas, crane operation and assembly, the focus is on the optimization of performance, loads and lifting heights. In doing so, dead loads are to be reduced to reduce overall weights and axle loads.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a solution with which the normal operation of such cranes is simplified, in particular to relieve the crane driver.
  • this object is achieved according to the invention in that the sick functions and load paths are first entered manually and at the same time recorded, processed and stored by an electronic control module, and then that the crane functions for automatic control of the load paths with manual speed control by the control module can be called up, whereby the load paths can be changed at any time by manual intervention.
  • the invention provides in particular that the telescopic length and the telescopic speed of each jib section and / or the luffing cylinder and / or the angular positions of the telescopic jib and the jib section and / or locking devices of the jib sections are individually removed via a separate measuring element, monitored and controlled accordingly.
  • the angular positions the telescopic boom usually determined with respect to the horizontal and that of the luffing jib usually with respect to the assigned telescopic boom axis.
  • the individual boom sleeves are extended or retracted synchronously by the control module.
  • This configuration makes it possible to ensure a particularly good load distribution to the individual boom sections, since the load is distributed approximately evenly over the boom sections when they are telescoped evenly, which is particularly important if the boom sections are only extended in regions , ie the maximum total length of the boom is not fully used.
  • the invention also provides a device with measuring and control devices for the individual crane functions of the hydraulic crane drive, the individual measuring and control devices being connected to an electronic control module and the control devices being optionally operable manually or by the control module , which is characterized in that the control devices can additionally be operated in a mixed manner in such a way that the automatic control by the control module can be overlaid by manual intervention.
  • Such a device is suitable for carrying out the method according to the invention, by connecting the individual measuring and control devices with an electronic control module and the central control by the control module, it is possible to automate certain set-up and work processes, so that the crane driver is relieved.
  • a particularly advantageous embodiment of the device according to the invention is that each boom section for individual extension length measurement and speed measurement is equipped with its own measuring element with an associated measuring device, which is connected to the control module for the transmission of measured values.
  • the respective measuring element is designed as a rope or cable with an associated winding roller and the respective measuring device as a rotary encoder assigned to the respective winding roller is.
  • These structural configurations are particularly suitable since such ropes or cables can be adapted very easily to different lengths by corresponding winding or unwinding.
  • other measuring elements or devices such as chains, racks or the like can also be provided here.
  • sensors are provided for measuring the angular positions of the telescopic boom and the luffing jib and are connected to the control module for the transmission of measured values. In this way, monitoring and control of these crane functions is also possible accordingly.
  • a rotary encoder for detecting the angular position of the superstructure relative to the undercarriage and the rotational speed is arranged on the slewing gear of the crane superstructure or on the superstructure itself, which is connected to the control module for the transmission of measured values.
  • rotary encoders for measuring the speed and for measuring the cable layers are arranged with pressure rollers with angle sensors which are connected to the control module for the transmission of measured values.
  • a common display device for the separate display of the individual crane functions, which e.g. is arranged in the cab.
  • the crane driver can then record the individual crane functions separately from one another in a particularly simple manner.
  • a mobile telescopic boom crane generally designated 1, has an undercarriage 2 and an uppercarriage 3, the uppercarriage 3 being pivotable relative to the undercarriage 2 about a vertical axis 4.
  • the undercarriage 2 carries the chassis with wheels 5 and a driver's cab 6, as well as other devices that are not important here.
  • the superstructure 3 initially has a bogie 7, on which an operating cabin 8 is arranged, from which the crane functions can be operated.
  • a telescopic crane boom 9 is arranged on the bogie 7 so as to be pivotable about a horizontal axis, the pivotability being able to be carried out by means of a luffing cylinder 10.
  • the telescopic crane boom 9 has a basic boom 11 and three mutually guided, individually telescopic telescopic boom sections 12, 13, 14 each with collars 12a, 13a, 14a and an innermost telescopic boom section 15 with a boom tip 15a.
  • a jib 16 is arranged on the jib tip 15a about a horizontal axis and a free hook 17 or the like is guided at the free end thereof.
  • the superstructure 3 can thus first be pivoted about the vertical axis 4 with respect to the undercarriage 2, while the crane boom 9 can additionally be pivoted about a horizontal axis by means of the luffing cylinder 10 and its total length by corresponding telescopic action of the individual boom sections 12, 13, 14 , 15 is variable.
  • the luffing jib 16 can be pivoted about a horizontal axis relative to the crane jib 9.
  • the jib 16 and the load hook 17 are connected to a winch hoist 18, which is on the bogie 7th arranged cable drums 19. With these winch hoists on the one hand the adjustment of the jib 16 relative to the boom 9 and on the other hand the vertical movement of the load hook 17 can be controlled.
  • each boom section 12, 13, 14, 15 is equipped with a steel cable 12b, 13b, 14b, 15b designed as a length measuring element, one end of which is fixed to the respective collar 12a, 13a, 14a, 15a .
  • the respective other end of the steel cables is in each case rolled up on a take-up roll 12c, 13c, 14c, 15c, these take-up rolls being rotatably arranged on the basic boom 11 of the crane boom 9.
  • Each take-up reel 12c, 13c, 14c, 15c is assigned its own rotary encoder 12d, 13d, 14d, 15d, via which the revolutions of the take-up reels and thus the extension lengths of the steel cables and thus the individual telescopic boom sections can be measured.
  • an angle transmitter 20 is arranged on the jib boom 16 and an angle transmitter 21 is arranged on the base boom 11.
  • Encoders 22 are provided on the cable drums 19 of the load lifting gear 18, by means of which the speed of the cable drums can be detected.
  • a measuring sensor 23 is provided as a measuring device for the luffing cylinder 10 and a rotary sensor 24 is provided as a measuring device for pivoting the upper carriage 3 relative to the undercarriage 2.
  • a measuring transducer 25 is additionally arranged on the innermost boom section 15, which is used to determine the position of locking and / or holding bolts, not shown, which enable the penultimate boom section 14 and the innermost boom section 15 to be telescoped together .
  • All measuring devices or measuring elements 12d, 13d, 14d, 15d, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25 are equipped with an electronic control module 26, e.g. a microprocessor, which is preferably arranged in the operating cabin 8 of the crane superstructure 3.
  • This control module 26 is additionally connected to a display and operating device 27, which is also preferably arranged in the operating cabin 8.
  • the method of operation of the method according to the invention is as follows: First of all, all the crane functions, for example the angular positioning of the crane superstructure 3 with respect to the undercarriage 2, the angular positioning of the crane boom 9 and the jib boom 16, and the extension length specification are made by the operator of the individual telescopic booms 12, 13, 14, actuation of the load hoist 22 and the like, entered manually one after the other by means of the device 27 and at the same time recorded, processed and stored by the electronic control module 26. As soon as all the repetitive functions have been entered manually, they can be called up automatically by the control module, i.e. the crane functions are then controlled automatically by the control module, monitoring being carried out by the measuring devices which are each separately connected to the control module 26. At the same time, the display device 27 shows the operator all the crane functions at any time, only the boom length measurement of the individual crane boom sections being shown in FIG. 3 by way of example.
