Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a vehicle crane, the counterweight assembly is coupled by means of a coupling device to the boom, so that the position of the counterweight assembly depends on the rocking position of the boom.
  • a crane is known in which the boom is connected by means of a linkage fixed with a horizontally displaceable counterweight, so that a buckling or rocking of the boom each causes a horizontal displacement of the counterweight.
  • the EP 1 990 306 A2 shows a mobile crane with a substantially horizontally movable counterweight arrangement.
  • the position of the counterweight assembly is coupled with coupled coupling device fixed to the rocking angle of the boom, with decoupled coupling device, the position of the counterweight assembly remains unchanged with changing rocking angle. It can therefore be selected between a coupled state, which allows an increasingly larger counter-torque by the counterweights when dumping, and a decoupled state in which the position of the counterweight assembly remains fixed relative to the turntable and allows the use of the crane in tight spaces.
  • decoupling should also be possible during crane operation, ie not only during setup.
  • the coupling device according to the invention is thus a force transmission device between the boom and the counterweight assembly, which initiates outgoing pressure from the boom pressure forces in the counterweight assembly and initiates outgoing from the counterweight assembly pressure forces in the boom.
  • the coupling device is designed to take up exclusively pressure forces from the boom and from the counterweight arrangement and to forward them to the counterweight arrangement or the boom.
  • the movement of the counterweight arrangement is a horizontal or vertical, in particular a horizontal and vertical movement.
  • a purely horizontal movement of the counterweight assembly only the moment is exerted which exerts the counterweight assembly against the cantilever torque on the turntable, while a purely vertical movement increases or decreases the potential or positional energy of the counterweight arrangement causes.
  • the coupling device has a linkage with at least one coupling rod.
  • a coupling rod is adapted to absorb compressive forces and thus to act as a power transmission between the boom and counterweight assembly.
  • At least one coupling rod of the coupling device linkage is configured such that at least one force application of the coupling rod can be spaced apart from a complementary force application.
  • a force attack is a point on the coupling rod to understand initiated on the forces in the coupling rod and / or can be discharged from it.
  • the coupling rod force application is fork-shaped, so that, for example, a bolt-shaped complementary force attack can engage in the forked force attack.
  • the coupling rod force attack bolt-shaped and the complementary force application is fork-shaped.
  • the coupling device is configured such that a canting of the cantilever increases the horizontal distance between the counterweight assembly and the cantilever axis and / or increases the vertical position the counterweight arrangement causes.
  • a canting of the cantilever increases the horizontal distance between the counterweight assembly and the cantilever axis and / or increases the vertical position the counterweight arrangement causes.
  • a pivoting movement of the counterweight arrangement ie a combined rotational / translational movement of the counterweight arrangement, is particularly preferred. This can be achieved, for example, by hanging the counterweight assembly on the turntable.
  • at least two pendulum supports are provided which engage, for example, on at least one at least partially projecting in a horizontal direction support arm.
  • the movement of the at least one further coupling rod is guided during rocking of the boom relative to the turntable, in particular by means of at least one mounted on a turntable fixed bearing point guide support, in particular in the region of the complementary force application to the further coupling rod attacks.
  • the further coupling rod is thus guided even in a decoupled configuration of the coupling linkage, wherein the guide post mounted on the turntable causes a defined movement of the coupling rod relative to the turntable. In this way, the defined movement of the coupler linkage is not affected by the decoupling.
  • the counterweights are mounted at the rearmost end of the turntable in mobile cranes. Accordingly, a further preferred embodiment of the present invention provides for the coupling rod to be mounted on the counterweight arrangement with the spaced-apart force application and / or for the coupling rod to be mounted on the cantilever with the complementary force application or the guided coupling rod in front.
  • the coupling rod to be mounted on the counterweight arrangement with the spaced-apart force application and / or for the coupling rod to be mounted on the cantilever with the complementary force application or the guided coupling rod in front.
  • Another advantage is a lockable embodiment of the counterweight assembly in order to fix it positionally with decoupled coupling device relative to the turntable. In this way it is prevented that the counterweight arrangement changes its position unintentionally.
  • different positions can be provided in which the counterweight assembly can be locked relative to the turntable. In this way, the position and thus also the counter-torque, for example, can also be varied during the use of the crane when the coupling device is coupled in, and then fixed in different positions as required for a decoupled coupling device.
  • FIG. 1 is a turntable 1 of the vehicle crane according to the invention to see, with a boom 2 is mounted on a non-designated horizontal rocking axis on the turntable 1 and this is tiltable relative to the turntable 1.
  • a counterweight assembly 3 can be seen, which Counterweight plates, a base plate and a stamp plate comprises, which in the FIG. 1 not to be designated.
  • the base plate 13 can be seen with a lifting cylinder to the punch plate 14, wherein on the base plate 13, the non-designated counterweight plates are mounted.
  • the coupling device 4 which comprises the coupling rods 5 and 6, wherein the coupling rod 5 rotatably mounted on the die plate 14 of the counterweight assembly 3 engages and with another, at the lower end of the boom rotatably mounted attacking coupling rod 6 is engaged.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 This can be the FIGS. 3 and 4 be taken particularly well, with the FIG. 3 the slipped and the FIG. 4 the extended state of the boom 2 shows.
  • a guide support 12 is also seen, which acts in the region of the force attacks 7 and 8 of the coupling rods 5 and 6 on the coupling rod 6 and thus the two coupling rods 5 and 6 leads in the rocking movement of the boom 2.
  • the movement of the coupling rod 6 can be seen through an unillustrated breakthrough in the turntable.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 also show the FIGS. 5 and 6 a on or istsippten state of the boom, but here in a decoupled Coupling 4.
  • the coupling rod 5 By shifting the coupling rod 5 by lowering the punch plate 14 through the located between the base plate 13 and punch plate 14 lifting cylinder, the forked force attack 7 from the complementary bolt-shaped force application 8 of the coupling rod 6 can be "hung", with a guide the coupling rod 6 through the guide post 12 is still given.
  • the counterweight assembly is moved to a locking position to prevent unwanted changes in position by crane movements with decoupled coupling device. Due to the decoupling no change in position of the counterweight assembly 3 is more effected by the cantilever rocking motion, but the coupling rod 6 can be moved freely through the coupling device 4 therethrough.
  • FIG. 7 provides a view of the complete lever kinematics of the coupling device 4 without the turntable 1 and the boom 2.
  • Two coupling rods 5 with forked force attacks 7 engage in the bolt-shaped force attacks 8 of the boom-side coupling rods 6, wherein two, arranged on both sides to the force attacks 7 and 8 Supports 12 ensure the leadership of the coupling rods 5 and 6 in the rocking movement of the boom 2.
