Description
La présente invention concerne une grue à tour repliable automatiquement, notamment en vue de son transport sur route, vers son lieu d'utilisation et d'un chantier à un autre. Cette invention est plus particulièrement relative à la conception d'ensemble de la grue, qui permet d'éviter toute intervention manuelle lors du repliage de l'engin.The present invention relates to an automatically foldable tower crane, in particular for transport on the road, to its place of use and from one site to another. This invention relates more particularly to the overall design of the crane, which makes it possible to avoid any manual intervention during the folding of the machine.
Dans le domaine des grues à tour repliables, on distingue les grues à mât télescopique, les grues à mât pliable et les grues à mât constitué d'un seul élément. L'invention se rapporte aux grues à tour du type à mât pliable, c'est-à-dire à mât constitué d'au moins deux éléments reliés l'un à l'autre par une articulation et pouvant être ainsi repliés l'un sur l'autre pour le transport de la grue, grues pour lesquelles il est difficile d'éliminer automatiquement les "mous" de câble apparaissant lors du repliage en position de transport.In the field of foldable tower cranes, there are telescopic mast cranes, foldable mast cranes and mast cranes made of a single element. The invention relates to tower cranes of the foldable mast type, that is to say a mast consisting of at least two elements connected to one another by a joint and which can thus be folded one on the other for the transport of the crane, cranes for which it is difficult to automatically eliminate the "slack" of cable appearing during the folding in transport position.
Les grues de ce type possèdent généralement une flèche articulée au sommet du mât et soutenue par un tirant en câble relié au sommet d'un poinçon rigide, articulé également au sommet du mât et maintenu en position par un câble formant un dispositif arrière de retenue reliant le sommet du poinçon à la partie arrière d'un châssis tournant qui est situé à la base du mât et qui porte un lest d'équil ibrage - voir par exemple le brevet français N° 2 548 646. Lorsque le mât se replie, la flèche et le poinçon pivotent autour de leur articulation sur le mât sous l'action du poids de la flèche, les câbles constituant le tirant et le dispositif arrière de retenue restant tendus pendant cette phase. Dans la phase suivante du repliage, la flèche vient en contact avec la partie supérieure du mât, et progressivement les câbles du tirant et du dispositif arrière de retenue se détendent et prennent du "mou" qu'il convient d'éliminer ou de compenser si l'on veut éviter que les câbles se détériorent rapidement, par formation de boucles par exemple.Cranes of this type generally have a jib articulated at the top of the mast and supported by a cable tie connected to the top of a rigid punch, also articulated at the top of the mast and held in position by a cable forming a rear retaining device connecting the top of the punch at the rear part of a rotating chassis which is located at the base of the mast and which carries a ballast of balancing - see for example French patent No. 2,548,646. When the mast folds, the arrow and the punch rotate around their articulation on the mast under the action of the weight of the arrow, the cables constituting the tie rod and the rear retaining device remaining taut during this phase. In the next phase of folding, the boom comes into contact with the upper part of the mast, and gradually the cables of the tie rod and the rear retaining device relax and take "slack" which should be eliminated or compensated if we want to prevent the cables from deteriorating quickly, for example by forming loops.
Selon un premier type de réalisation connue, les câbles sont débrochés manuellement de leurs fixations d'extrémité, puis sont stockés par enroulement sur un touret ou sont lovés à même le sol en vue de leur transport avec l'engin de levage. Cette réalisation nécessite plusieurs interventions manuelles qui augmentent sensiblement la durée de mise à poste et de changement de poste de la grue, opérations qui avec l'industrialisation des chantiers, sont de plus en plus fréquentes pour ce type d'engins.According to a first known type of embodiment, the cables are manually removed from their end fixings, then are stored by winding on a reel or are coiled on the ground for transport with the lifting machine. This realization requires several manual interventions which significantly increase the duration of the shifting and change of position of the crane, operations which with the industrialization of construction sites, are more and more frequent for this type of machine.
Selon un deuxième type de réalisation de plus en plus répandue, les câbles sont motorisés, soit directement, soit par l'intermédiaire d'un mouflage, et les excédents de longueur de câble, apparaissant lors du repliage des grues sont enroulés automatiquement sur un tambour - voir le brevet français N° 2 636 616 et son premier certificat d'addition N° 2 643 625. Du point de vue du problème à résoudre, cette réalisation donne entière satisfaction, mais la conception en est complexe et onéreuse.According to a second type of embodiment which is becoming more and more widespread, the cables are motorized, either directly or by means of hauling, and the excess cable length, appearing when the cranes are folded up, are automatically wound on a drum. - see French patent No. 2,636,616 and its first certificate of addition No. 2,643,625. From the point of view of the problem to be solved, this embodiment is entirely satisfactory, but the design is complex and expensive.
La présente invention remédie aux inconvénients exposés ci-dessus, en fournissant une grue à tour repliable automatiquement, c'est-à-dire avec suppression de toute intervention manuelle, et dont la conception reste simple et économique.The present invention overcomes the drawbacks set out above, by providing an automatically foldable tower crane, that is to say with the elimination of any manual intervention, and the design of which remains simple and economical.
A cet effet, une grue à tour repliable automatiquement selon l'invention comprend de façon connue un mât pliable en deux parties, l'une inférieure et l'autre supérieure, reliées entre elles par articulation autour d'un axe horizontal, une flèche articulée au sommet du mât et soutenue par un tirant de flèche relié au sommet d'un poinçon rigide lui-même articulé au sommet du mât ou sur la partie postérieure de la flèche, et un dispositif arrière de retenue reliant le sommet du poinçon à la partie arrière d'un châssis tournant qui est situé à la base du mât et qui porte un lest d'équilibrage, la partie inférieure du mât étant articulée autour d'un axe horizontal sur l'avant du châssis tournant, tandis qu'un organe motorisé tel que vérin commande le repliage/dépliage du mât ; cette grue est caractérisée essentiellement en ce que le tirant de flèche est formé d'au moins deux éléments rigides articulés l'un à l'autre, et en ce que le dispositif arrière de retenue est formé d'un élément rigide à sa partie inférieure, relié par articulation à un point fixe de la partie arrière du châssis tournant et prolongé à sa partie supérieure jusqu'au poinçon de flèche par un câble, une bielle reliant l'élément rigide du dispositif arrière de retenue à la partie inférieure du mât pliable, et l'organe motorisé reliant entre elles les deux parties du mât.To this end, an automatically foldable tower crane according to the invention comprises, in a known manner, a mast foldable in two parts, one lower and the other upper, interconnected by articulation around a horizontal axis, an articulated boom at the top of the mast and supported by an arrow rod connected to the top of a rigid punch itself articulated at the top of the mast or on the rear part of the boom, and a rear retaining device connecting the top of the punch to the part rear of a rotating chassis which is located at the base of the mast and which carries a balancing ballast, the lower part of the mast being articulated around a horizontal axis on the front of the rotating chassis, while a motorized member such that the cylinder controls the folding / unfolding of the mast; this crane is essentially characterized in that the jib tie rod is formed of at least two rigid elements articulated to one another, and in that the rear retaining device is formed of a rigid element at its lower part , connected by articulation to a fixed point on the rear part of the rotating chassis and extended at its upper part to the arrow punch by a cable, a connecting rod connecting the rigid element of the rear retaining device to the lower part of the foldable mast , and the motorized member connecting together the two parts of the mast.
Selon un mode de réalisation préférentiel de l'invention, le tirant de flèche est formé de quatre éléments rigides successifs, articulés les uns aux autres autour d'axes horizontaux, éléments dont la longueur est déterminée de telle façon que le poinçon étant rabattu sur la flèche, l'ensemble des quatre éléments rigides soit également rabattu sur la flèche et lesdits éléments soient parfaitement repliés les uns sur les autres pour occuper le minimum de place en hauteur. De plus, la conception est telle que la grue étant entièrement repliée, donc en position de transport, la bielle et l'élément rigide du dispositif arrière de retenue sont alignés, tandis que le câble formant la partie supérieure de ce dispositif arrière de retenue est tendu.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the tie rod is formed of four successive rigid elements, articulated to each other around horizontal axes, elements the length of which is determined so that the punch being folded over the boom, all four rigid elements are also folded down on the boom and said elements are perfectly folded over each other to occupy the minimum space in height. In addition, the design is such that the crane being fully folded, so in the transport position, the connecting rod and the rigid element of the rear retaining device are aligned, while the cable forming the upper part of this rear retaining device is tense.
Avantageusement, la partie postérieure de la flèche est munie d'un premier rouleau de guidage, tandis qu'un deuxième rouleau de guidage est disposé à l'extrémité escamotable d'un poinçon arrière de relevage dont la base est rigidement fixée à l'arrière du sommet et de la partie supérieure du mât, de telle façon que, lors du repliage de la grue, le câble du dispositif arrière de retenue vienne s'appuyer et soit guidé sur les deux rouleaux en restant en permanence tendu.Advantageously, the rear part of the boom is provided with a first guide roller, while a second guide roller is disposed at the retractable end of a rear lifting punch whose base is rigidly fixed to the rear. from the top and the upper part of the mast, so that, when the crane is folded, the cable of the rear retaining device comes to rest and is guided on the two rollers while remaining permanently taut.
Selon une forme de réalisation particulière, dans le cas d'une flèche composée d'au moins deux éléments, dont un pied de flèche et une pointe de flèche, la partie antérieure de la pointe de flèche est de hauteur réduite par rapport à la hauteur courante de la flèche, pour ménager lors de son rabattement sur le pied de flèche un espace où viennent se loger, à l'aplomb du poinçon rigide de flèche, la partie repliée du tirant de flèche et la partie supérieure du câble du dispositif arrière de retenue.According to a particular embodiment, in the case of an arrow composed of at least two elements elements, including an arrowhead and an arrowhead, the front part of the arrowhead is of reduced height compared to the current height of the arrow, to provide during its folding on the arrowhead a space where come fit, folded over the rigid arrow punch, the folded part of the arrow tie rod and the upper part of the cable for the rear retaining device.
Quels que soient les détails de construction, on réalise ainsi une grue à tour repliable automatiquement, c'est-à-dire sans intervention manuel le, notamment pour son transport sur route, en résolvant le problème posé par le "mou" des câbles sans recourir à la solution complexe et onéreuse consistant à motoriser ces câbles.Whatever the construction details, a tower crane is folded automatically, that is to say without manual intervention, especially for its transport on the road, by solving the problem posed by the "slack" of the cables without resort to the complex and expensive solution of motorizing these cables.

La grue à tour représentée schématiquement à la figure 1 comprend de façon connue un châssis de base fixe ou roulant 1 supportant, par l'intermédiaire d'un dispositif d'orientation 2, un châssis tournant 3 qui porte à l'arrière un contrepoids 4 et à l'avant duquel est articulé, autour d'un axe horizontal 5, un mât pliable 6 composé d'un mât de base 7 et d'un mât supérieur 8 reliés l'un à l'autre par articulation sur leur face arrière autour d'un axe horizontal 9. Cette grue est pourvue d'une flèche distributrice 10, dépliable et repliable, réalisée ici en trois éléments successifs, désignés respectivement comme pied de flèche 11, élément intermédiaire de pliage de flèche 12 et pointe de flèche 13, articulés entre eux autour d'axes horizontaux 14,15, disposés au niveau de leurs membrures inférieures (la notion de membrure "inférieure" étant définie par référence à l'a flèche en position dépliée de travail).The tower crane shown schematically in Figure 1 comprises in known manner a fixed or rolling base chassis 1 supporting, by means of an orientation device 2, a rotating chassis 3 which carries a counterweight 4 at the rear and at the front of which is articulated, around a
Le mât supérieur 8 est relié au châssis tournant 3 par l'intermédiaire de deux haubans de dressage 16 disposés symétriquement de part et d'autre du mât 6 et articulés respectivement autour d'un axe horizontal 17 situé à la base du mât supérieur 8 et autour d'un axe horizontal 18 disposé à la partie arrière du châssis tournant 3.The
La flèche 10 est articulée au sommet du mât 6 autour d'un axe horizontal 19 et est maintenue en position par un tirant de flèche 20 reliant un point fixe 21 de la membrure supérieure 22 du pied de flèche 11 au sommet 23 d'un poinçon de flèche rigide 24 incliné vers l'arrière de la grue et articulé à la base du pied de flèche 11 autour d'un axe horizontal 25, ledit poinçon 24 étant lui-même maintenu en position par un dispositif arrière de retenue 26 reliant le sommet 23 du poinçon de flèche 24 à un point fixe 27 disposé à la partie arrière du châssis tournant 3. La grue est motorisée pour son montage, c'est-à-dire pour le dressage du mât 6, le relevage et le dépliage de la flèche 10, un vérin hydraulique 46 reliant à cet effet le mât de base 7 au mât supérieur 8.The
Comme montré en détail aux figures 3,4 et 5, le tirant de flèche 20 est formé de quatre éléments rigides successifs 28,29,30,31 :
- L'élément supérieur 28 est une double bielle formant un tenon entre son articulation au
sommet 23 du poinçon deflèche 24 et son articulation autour d'un axe horizontal 32 sur l'élément suivant 29 ; l'élément suivant 29 est constitué de deux fers plats identiques percés à leurs extrémités et reliés entre eux par des entretoises, l'ensemble des deux fers plats formant une chape pour son articulation en 32 sur l'élément précédent 28 et pour son articulation autour d'un axe horizontal 33 sur l'élément suivant 30 ; l'élément 30 est une double bielle formant un tenon pour son articulation en 33 sur l'élément précédent 29 et formant unechape pour son articulation autour d'un axe horizontal 34 sur l'élément suivant 31 ; enfin, cedernier élément 31 constituant la plus grande partie du tirant de flèche 20 est constitué d'un profilé en U ouvert en direction de laflèche 10, profilé dont la première extrémité est constituée de deux fers plats soudés symétriquement de part et d'autre du profil et percés de deux 34,35 décalés longitudinalement. lealésages premier alésage 34 assurent la liaison avec l'élément précédent 30, et ledeuxième alésage 35 assurant la liaison directement avec l'élément 29 lorsque le tirant de flèche 20 est raccourci en supprimant ladouble bielle 30 pour obtenir une grue à flèche relevée (voir le tracé en traits mixtes de la figure 5). La longueur dudernier élément 31 du tirant de flèche 20 est du même ordre que celle de la membrure supérieure 22 du pied deflèche 11 située sous ledit tirant 20. La longueur de l'ensemble assemblé et aligné des trois 28,29,30 du tirant de flèche 20 est, quant à elle, du même ordre que la longueur du poinçon depremiers éléments flèche 24.
- The
upper element 28 is a double connecting rod forming a tenon between its articulation at thetop 23 of thearrow punch 24 and its articulation around ahorizontal axis 32 on the followingelement 29; thefollowing element 29 consists of two identical flat bars pierced at their ends and connected together by spacers, the assembly of the two flat bars forming a yoke for its articulation at 32 on the precedingelement 28 and for its articulation around ahorizontal axis 33 on thenext element 30; theelement 30 is a double connecting rod forming a tenon for its articulation at 33 on the precedingelement 29 and forming a cap for its articulation around ahorizontal axis 34 on the followingelement 31; finally, thislast element 31 constituting the largest part of the tie rod 20 consists of a U-shaped profile open in the direction ofarrow 10, the profile of which the first end consists of two flat irons symmetrically welded on either side other of the profile and pierced with two 34, 35 offset longitudinally. thebores first bore 34 ensures the connection with the precedingelement 30, and thesecond bore 35 ensuring the connection directly with theelement 29 when the jib tie 20 is shortened by removing the double connectingrod 30 to obtain a jib crane raised ( see the dashed line in Figure 5). The length of thelast element 31 of the jib tie rod 20 is of the same order as that of the upper chord 22 of thejib foot 11 located under said tie rod 20. The length of the assembled and aligned assembly of the first three 28, 29, 30 of the arrow rod 20 is, in turn, of the same order as the length of theelements arrow punch 24.
Le dispositif arrière de retenue 26 est constitué d'une part d'un élément inférieur rigide 36 de profil en U ouvert vers l'extérieur de la grue et relié par articulation au point fixe 27 disposé à la partie arrière du châssis tournant 3, et d'autre part d'un câble souple 37 de longueur constante reliant le sommet 23 du poinçon de flèche 24 à l'extrémité libre 38 de l'élément rigide 36. Une double bielle de liaison rigide 39 relie par ailleurs par articulation autour d'axes horizontaux l'extrémité 38 de l'élément rigide 36 du dispositif arrière de retenue 26 à deux points fixes 40 situés de part et d'autre de la partie supérieure du mât de base 7, à faible distance de l'articulation 9 de ce dernier au mât supérieur 8.The
La grue est encore équipée d'un premier dispositif de guidage de câble 41 disposé à la partie postérieure de la flèche 10 et d'un deuxième dispositif de guidage de câble 42 disposé à l'extrémité escamotable 43 d'un poinçon arrière de relevage 44 dont la base 45 est rigidement fixée à l'arrière du sommet du mât supérieur 8. Les deux dispositifs de guidage de câble 41 et 42 sont notamment réalisables sous la forme de rouleaux de guidage, d'axes horizontaux.The crane is also equipped with a first cable guiding
Enfin, comme montré clairement à la figure 6, les deux parties 7 et 8 du mât pliable 6 sont constituées, l'une et l'autre, par des caissons de section octogonale, présentant des faces antérieures 48 et postérieures 49 parallèles aux divers axes d'articulation, tels que l'articulation 27 et les axes 32,33,34 ; cette configuration est avantageuse en ce sens qu'elle se rapproche de la section idéale circulaire, tout en offrant des faces parallèles et perpendiculaires les unes par rapport aux autres, adaptées aux divers assemblages et articulations nécessaires.Finally, as clearly shown in FIG. 6, the two
A partir de la position de travail montrée à la figure 1, le repliage de la grue précédemment décrite s'effectue de la manière suivante :
- En commandant par le
vérin 46 le repliage dumât 6, on provoque le pivotement du mât de base 7 vers l'avant autour de son axe d'articulation 5 sur le châssis tournant 3, tandis que le mât supérieur 8 pivote vers l'arrière, autour de son axe d'articulation 9 sur le mât de base 7, sous l'action des haubans dedressage 16 qui le retiennent. Au cours de ce mouvement, le dispositif arrière deretenue 26 reste sous tension sous l'action du poids de laflèche 10 qui pivote autour de son axe d'articulation 19 par rapport au mât supérieur 8, tandis que simultanément le tirant de flèche 20 reste également sous tension et que le poinçon deflèche 24 pivote autour de son axe d'articulation 25 par rapport au mât supérieur 8. Le mouvement se poursuivant, le câble arrière deretenue 37 vient s'appuyer progressivement sur le dispositif deguidage 42 du poinçon arrière de relevage 44 de telle façon que lecâble 37 soit guidé et que les efforts restent admissibles. Lorsque laflèche 10 se trouve rabattue contre le mât supérieur 8, le tirant 20 se replie sur lui-même sous l'action de son propre poids tandis que le poinçon deflèche 24 se rabat sur laflèche 10 en maintenant toujours en tension le dispositif arrière deretenue 26. En fin d'opération, la grue se trouve dans la position repliée de transport montrée à la figure 2.
- By controlling the folding of the
mast 6 by thejack 46, the base mast 7 is pivoted forwards around itsarticulation axis 5 on the rotating frame 3, while theupper mast 8 pivots backwards. , around its axis ofarticulation 9 on the base mast 7, under the action of the dressing stays 16 which hold it. During this movement, therear retaining device 26 remains under tension under the action of the weight of theboom 10 which pivots about its axis ofarticulation 19 relative to theupper mast 8, while simultaneously drawing the boom 20 also remains under tension and thearrow punch 24 pivots about itsarticulation axis 25 relative to theupper mast 8. The movement continuing, the rear retainingcable 37 comes to bear progressively on theguide device 42 of the rear lifting punch 44 so that thecable 37 is guided and the forces remain admissible. When theboom 10 is folded back against theupper mast 8, the tie rod 20 folds back on itself under the action of its own weight while the arrow punch 24 folds back on theboom 10 while still keeping the device in tension rear retaining 26. At the end of the operation, the crane is in the folded transport position shown in FIG. 2.
Selon une disposition avantageuse, l'élément 31 à profil en U du tirant de flèche 20 vient, en position repliée de transport, coiffer la membrure supérieure 22 de section carrée du pied de flèche 11, réduisant ainsi la hauteur de l'ensemble formé par la flèche 10 et le tirant de flèche 20 repliés. Selon une autre disposition avantageuse, l'élément 36 de profil en U du tirant arrière de retenue 26 sert au guidage de la partie du câble 37 passant entre le mât de base 7 et le mât supérieur 8 lorsque la grue est repliée. Suivant encore une autre caractéristique, l'extrémité escamotable 43 du poinçon arrière de relevage 44 peut, lorsque la grue est repliée, être elle-même partiellement repliée pour limiter l'encombrement en longueur de la grue au cours de son transport.According to an advantageous arrangement, the
Il va de soi que lors du dépliage de la grue, à partir de sa position repliée de transport, les mouvements sont inverses de ceux précédemment décrits, le vérin 46 étant commandé en sens inverse.It goes without saying that during the unfolding of the crane, from its folded transport position, the movements are opposite to those previously described, the
Dans l'exemple ici décrit, où la flèche 10 est composée de plusieurs éléments 11, 12, 13 articulés les uns aux autres au niveau de leurs membrures inférieures, un dispositif 47 permet le repliage de cette flèche 10 indépendamment du repliage général de la grue précédemment décrit. Suivant une disposition avantageuse, dans le cas où la pointe de flèche 13 se replie sur la totalité de la longueur du pied de flèche 11, la partie antérieure de la pointe de flèche 13 est de hauteur réduite par rapport à la hauteur courante de la flèche 10, pour ménager en position repliée un espace où viennent se loger, à l'aplomb du poinçon rigide 24 replié, la partie repliée du tirant de flèche 20 et la partie supérieure du câble arrière de retenue 37.In the example described here, where the
Enfin, la grue étant repliée, il est aisé d'enlever la double bielle 30 et de brocher l'axe 33 de l'élément 29 du tirant de flèche 20 directement sur l'axe 35 de l'élément 31 pour former un tirant de flèche 20 plus court, dans lequel l'axe 34 est aussi éliminé. On obtient ainsi, à l'état déplié, une grue à flèche relevée.Finally, the crane being folded, it is easy to remove the double connecting
Comme il va de soi, et comme il résulte de ce qui précède, l'invention ne se limite pas à la seule forme d'exécution de cette grue à tour repliable automatiquement qui a été décrite ci-dessus, à titre d'exemple ; elle en embrasse, au contraire, toutes les variantes de réalisation et d'application fondées sur le même principe. Ainsi, l'on ne s'éloignerait pas du cadre de l'invention :
- - par l'utilisation d'un tirant de flèche réalisé en un nombre quelconque d'éléments rigides articulés entre eux, ces éléments étant au nombre de deux au moins ;
- - par l'utilisation d'un dispositif arrière de retenue différent de celui décrit par ses détails constructifs ;
- - en remplaçant le vérin 46 par tout organe motorisé équivalent ;
- - par l'utilisation d'un mât en caisson ou en treillis de section différente de la forme octogonale;
- - par une adaptation du même principe de repliage à des grues de conception différente, en ce qui concerne la structure de la flèche et son dispositif de repliage.
- - By the use of a tie rod made of any number of rigid elements hinged together, these elements being at least two in number;
- - by the use of a rear retaining device different from that described by its construction details;
- - by replacing the
actuator 46 by any mo equivalent torized; - - by the use of a box or truss mast with a section different from the octagonal shape;
- - By adapting the same folding principle to cranes of different design, as regards the structure of the boom and its folding device.
