Description

A HOSE GUARD FOR AN ARTICULATING CRANE AND AN ARTICULATING ARM ARRANGEMENT OF AN ARTICULATING CRANE
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to the field of lifting equipment and 5 cranes used for lifting and loading within the transportation industry, energy industry, process industry and manufacturing industry, and more particularly to a hose guard for an articulating crane and to an articulating arm arrangement of an articulating crane.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Lifting equipment and cranes are used in industry for different applications, such as loading and unloading within the transportation industry and bulk material and other material handling within the process and manufacturing industry as well as within the energy industry. A crane is generally defined as a machine for lifting and moving heavy objects by means of ropes or cables suspended from a movable arm. One of the most common crane types is an articulating crane. Articulating cranes are special type of jib cranes having an articulating arm jib or boom. Articulating cranes are also often referred to as loader cranes or knuckle-boom cranes. An articulating crane has typically a hydraulically-powered articulated arm arrangement having one or more of the boom sections telescopic.
Articulating cranes are used in industry for different applications these including handling of bulk material, such as coal, mineral, scrap metal and other material within the process and manufacturing industry as well as within the energy industry. Articulating cranes are also typically used within the transportation industry as loading and unloading material these including loading and unloading of timber, bulk material, scrap metal and other material. The articulating crane may also be a mobile crane or a truckmounted crane. A truck-mounted articulating crane is often a crane in which the numerous telescopic boom sections may be folded into a small space when the crane is not in use. Within forestry articulating cranes are used in e.g. forwarders and timber trucks for loading and unloading of timber.
One typical example of an articulating crane according to the prior art may be seen in US Patent document US 7,311,489 B2, which presents an articulating crane having an extendable telescopic arm structure, in which
20155811 prh 07-12- 2017 the hydraulic hoses are fitted outside the telescopic end-side inner boom portion. Another typical example of an articulating crane according to the prior art may be seen in US Patent document US 3,893,480. In US 3,893,480 the hydraulic hoses are fitted inside the articulated arm of the articulating crane and a separate coaxial hydraulic conduit is fitted outside the telescopic end-side inner boom portion when said boom is extended.
Some of the typical articulating cranes according to the prior art are designed to have the hydraulic hoses and pipes fitted inside the articulated arm and the telescopic end-side inner boom portion of the articulating crane. Two typical examples of this type of articulating cranes according to the prior art may be seen in US Patent documents US 5,924,837 and US 6,530,742 B2. Although the hoses and pipes may be somewhat safe from external objects these types of hoses are difficult to maintain or adjust.
International Patent Application document WO 2014/120243 Al shows one prior art solution for a nose body of a boom of a boom apparatus. US Patent Application document US 2013/0056588 Al shows another prior art arrangement for guiding hoses and/or cables running from a crane jib via its nose portion. European Patent Application document EP 1580159 Al shows also another prior art solution for a hose guide of a crane.
European Patent document EP 1889808 BI shows an articulating crane according to the prior art where in the connections for the hydraulic hoses are leading from a crane arm of the articulating crane to the connections at the side of a fixing device, said hydraulic hoses leading between two spaced rotary bearings of a rotary joint at the crane arm side.
In the prior art articulating cranes, where the hydraulic hoses are leading from a crane arm of the articulating crane to the connections at the side of a fixing device, the hydraulic hoses are vulnerable against hits or blows. Also in use and in transportation the hydraulic hoses are vulnerable against any external contacts or any external objects. Also in the extremely demanding working conditions and working temperatures the hydraulic hoses of the prior art articulating cranes tend to bend in undesired manner and consequently break. Also when extending and retracting the articulating crane, especially in extremely demanding working conditions and working temperatures the hydraulic hoses of the prior art articulating cranes tend to bend or bundle in undesired manner and consequently break. There are some prior art guide elements designed for guiding hoses; however these
20155811 prh 07-12- 2017 prior art guide elements typically do not withstand any hits or blows or any external contacts or any external objects. The prior art guide elements are typically quite simple in design and are not designed to stay in a correct position for guiding hoses in all articulating boom positions. Furthermore, the prior art guide elements can easily bend and wind up into an undesired position.
In today’s demanding environment, the manufacturers of articulating cranes are constantly looking for improvements and cost savings in crane manufacturing. Likewise, there is also a demand in the market for a new type of a hose guard for an articulating crane and an articulating arm arrangement of an articulating crane which would improve the secure use of the crane when compared to the current prior art solutions.

The said guide pin elements 5-7 of the hose guard 14 according to the present invention may also include a sliding sleeve arranged on the said guide pin element 5-7.
In the articulating arm arrangement of an articulating crane according to the present invention the strong and solid guard element of the said hose guard according to the present invention withstands hits or blows and protects the hydraulic hoses conduits against any external contacts or any external objects. Furthermore, the hose guide elements of the said hose guard according to the present invention guide the hydraulic hose conduits so that the hydraulic hoses do not bend in undesired manner and therefore do not break due to undesired bending.
Likewise, in the an articulating arm arrangement according to the present invention the hydraulic hose conduits have more space and are not so easily subjected to wear against the moving boom or booms of the said articulating arm arrangement. With the help of the solution according to the present invention the manufacturers of articulating cranes may produce articulating cranes that are more durable in use than the prior art articulating crane solutions.
It will be obvious to a person skilled in the art that, as the technology advances, the inventive concept can be implemented in various ways. The invention and its embodiments are not limited to the examples described above but may vary within the scope of the claims.
