Definitions

  • the present invention relates to tower cranes that are fundamentally used in construction work sites, proposing a jib or counter-jib structure for flat top cranes with an embodiment that provides technical and economic advantages with respect to the solutions used today in forming said structures.
  • a tower crane is a discontinuously operating piece of hoist equipment intended for hoisting and distributing in space loads suspended from a hook or from any other holding means.
  • These cranes are most commonly used in construction work sites, their installation being temporary, so they are usually subjected to regular assemblies, dismantlings and transfers.
  • Such cranes are formed by a series of fundamental structural parts which are: base, tower, slewing platform, jib, counter-jib, counterweight, head section, ballast, jib trolley and load holding element.
  • the base is the element bearing the crane tower and the ballast which is necessary for assuring stability.
  • the tower is a vertical structure comprised between the base and the upper portion of the crane.
  • the slewing platform is a structure that can be oriented as a result of a slewing bearing located in the upper part of the tower.
  • the jib is a structural component capable of bearing the hoist loads in the corresponding ranges.
  • the counter-jib is a structural component bearing the counterweight of the crane.
  • the counterweight is a mass which is secured in the counter-jib and the function of which is to counteract and balance part of the actions of the payload and some parts of the crane during operation.
  • the tower head section is a structural element integrating the slewing part and is capable of bearing and transmitting forces from the jib and counter-jib structures.
  • the ballast is a mass which is secured at the base for the purpose of stabilizing the structural assembly of the crane.
  • the jib trolley is a device carrying the load holding member, said trolley being moveable along the jib.
  • the holding member is a device the purpose of which is load suspension, being able to be in the form of a hook, a bucket, an electromagnet, etc., depending on the type of loads to be handled with the crane.
  • braced tower cranes Two main versions of tower cranes, i.e., braced and flat top cranes , are known today; braced tower cranes using a large tower head section to which tensioning braces which aid in bearing part of the crane's weight and part of the load transmitted by the jib and counter-jib structures are secured; whereas flat top tower cranes use a tower head section that is smaller than the equivalent tower head section of braced tower cranes.
  • a jib and/or counter-jib structure of a flat top tower crane is proposed, whereby features providing advantages for forming cranes of this type which have a great capacity and are easy to transport are achieved.
  • This structure object of the invention is formed by partial sections which allow forming a jib or a counter-jib by means of successively connecting identical sections, each section comprising a lower lattice structure forming end couplings intended for connecting with other consecutive sections, and an upper lattice structure formed by panels that are arranged in an articulated or removable manner on the lower lattice structure, these panels incorporating on the edge opposite the edge connected with the lower lattice structure couplings for connecting with one another and in turn for connecting with other consecutive sections; the lower lattice structure forming a truncated pyramid formation, whereas the upper lattice structure forms a formation having a triangular profile on the upper base of the lower lattice structure.
  • a structure in the sections of which the panels of the upper lattice structure can be dismantled or collapsed on the sides of the lower lattice structure is thus obtained, whereby said sections forming the structure can be transported in small-sized containers to form the sections of the structure with a large cross-section, and therefore being very strong, once they are at the destination by means of deploying or assembling the panels of the upper structure.
  • the proposed structure therefore has very advantageous features for forming jibs and counter-jibs of high capacity flat top tower cranes, acquiring its own identity and preferred character for said application.
  • the object of the invention relates to a structure intended for forming a jib or a counter-jib for a flat top tower crane, for example of the type structured by a jib (1), a counter-jib (2), a tower head section (3), a counterweight (4), a slewing part (5), a tower (6) and a base (7), such as that depicted in Figure 2 .
  • the purpose of said structure object of the invention is to allow the construction of tower cranes of this type with a capacity similar to that of large tower cranes provided with a brace (8), such as that depicted in Figure 1 , the jib (1) and the counter-jib (2) having a structural strength that allows eliminating the braces (8) and, therefore reducing the tower head section (3), and at the same time with an embodiment that allows collapsing or dismantling for transport in conventional containers.
  • the proposed structure is formed by partial sections that allow forming a jib (1) or a counter-jib (2) by means of successively connecting identical sections.
  • Each partial section of said structure object of the invention ( Figures 3 and 4 ) comprises a lower lattice structure (9) formed according to a truncated pyramid formation, and an upper lattice structure (10) that is arranged forming a formation having a triangular profile on said lower structure (9).
  • the lower lattice structure (9) is formed by a fixed structural assembly having end couplings (11) for connecting with other consecutive sections; whereas the upper lattice structure (10) is formed by side panels (12) which are connected by an edge to the upper part of the lower lattice structure (9) by means of couplings (13) that can be articulated or removable, whereas on the other edge said panels (12) have other couplings (14) for connecting with one another and with other consecutive sections.
  • the sections forming the proposed structure have a large cross-section and are therefore very strong, allowing the formation of jibs (1) and counter-jibs (2) to be suitable for flat top tower cranes having a large load capacity.
  • the panels (12) of the upper lattice structure (10) can de dismantled from the lower lattice structure (9) or lowered onto the sides thereof in a simple and quick manner, which allows transporting the sections forming the structure in small-sized conventional containers, thus facilitating the transport of the cranes between their different use locations.
