Definitions
- This invention relates to a system for reducing the overall aerial dimensions of the jib in a foldable tower crane.
- the invention relates to a system for partially folding the jib of a foldable tower crane so that the jib can freely swing under the wind force without said jib interfering with any surrounding obstacle.
- a foldable tower crane is known, e.g. from Italian Patents No. 1179987 and No. 1206882 in the name of the applicant.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a system for partially folding the distal portion of the horizontal jib in a crane, with such system that can be easily fitted to a foldable tower crane of the type disclosed in Italian Patent No. 1 206 882.
- Figure 1 shows a foldable crane substantially formed by a tower mounted on a base 1 and formed by two sections 2 and 4, pivoted to each other at 3, and a jib mounted at the tower top and formed by two sections 6 and 8 pivotally connected to each other at 5.
- the crane tower is provided with actuating means 7 through which the crane tower can be raised or lowered, and with other well known components and devices that will not be described in details.
- the system for reducing the overall aerial dimensions of a foldable tower crane jib comprises a deformable tip 11 having a substantially pyramidal shape, provided on the top section 4 of the crane tower. Tip 11 is deformable in that its configuration can be modified.
- Such tip 11 comprises a metal frame formed by a pair of tubular members 11a and a hydraulic cylinder 11b.
- the tubular members 11a are arranged to form a triangle, with an end of each tubular member being hinged or pivotally coupled to the tower top at 11c, and with the other ends of such tubular members pivoted to each other at 11d.
- the case 200 of hydraulic cylinder 11b is pivotally connected (at 11e) to the top of the tower, while the piston rod 201 of the hydraulic cylinder 11b is pivotally connected (at 11d) to the jointed ends of said tubular members 11a.
- the folding system according to the invention further comprises a cable 10, having one end secured to the pivot point 11d, and the other end secured to the distal section 8 of the crane jib, through a bracket 12 disposed near the jib pivot(s) 5 rotatably connecting together the proximal section 6 with the distal section 8 of the crane jib.
- An articulated supporting member or swinging holder 13 is provided at pivot 5, as better shown in Figures 2 and 3, for joining together a pair of headropes 25.
- the articulated supporting member 13 comprises two pairs of beams 14, 15 and 16, 17, with the ends of each beam connected together in a V configuration, disposed in parallel planes and provided with holes 18 and 18' at the vertex of each pair for a rotatable connection to pivots 5 of jib 3.
- the pairs of V-shaped beams 14, 15 and 16, 17 are jointed by a ledger 20 having a cantilever fork 21 secured to its middle and carrying a rotatable pulley 23 for guiding the tie cable 10 when this latter engages the pulley 23.
- each tie cable 25, 25' is fixed to a structure 27 integral with the top of the crane tower and extending above said deformable tip 11.
- Beams 14 and 16 are further jointed by a stiffening bar 22, and beams 16 and 17 are jointed by a stiffening bar 19.
- the pair of cables 25 and 25' is driven by the lifting of the structure 27 as described in Italian Patent No. 1206882.
- the tractive force applied by cables 25 and 25' accomplishes the folding or extending of jib thanks to the rotation of the jib distal section 8 around jig pivots 5.
- the forward (extending) and backward (contracting) motion of rod 201 inside the case 200 of the hydraulic cylinder 11b modifies the shape of tip 11 which takes a backward or a forward configuration in respect of the crane jib 6, 8.
- the jib distal section 8 when the crane is fully extended, can achieve an operating configuration with a forward projecting configuration of tip 11 as shown in Figure 2a, or a rest configuration with a backward configuration of said tip as shown in Figure 2b.
- the crane range is reduced while the jib distal section 8 is inclined with respect to the jib section 6, and the end thereof has been raised.
- the angle of jig section 8 with respect to the horizontal operating plane is comprised between 0° and 90° without reaching such limits.
