Definitions

  • a platform-carrying boom structure mounted on the end of a horizontal support arm which can be swung laterally outwardly from the carriage.
  • the boom structure is arranged to elevate and/or depress the platform relative to the carriage to inspect areas above and below the level of the carriage, the platform having a range of horizontal movement allowing the platform to enter, for example, a viaduct arch beneath the carriage.
  • the entire boom structure can in addition be'slewed about a vertical axis at the end of the lateral support arm to further increase the range of positions of the platform.
  • An object of this invention is to provide such a machine which is potentially capable of positioning its load platform within a wide range of horizontal and vertical movements.
  • a platform-carrying machine adapted to be mounted on a carriage, and characterised by the combination of: a
  • a support arm capable of projecting laterally outwardly in a direction transverse to the direction of movement of the carriage; a boom structure carried at the projecting end of the said arm and arranged for controlled piv- 'otal movement about at least one horizontal axis and for controlled bodily slewing movement about a vertical axis at said projecting end of the support arm and spaced laterally from the carriage; a load platform carried by the boom structure, and control means for controlling the said pivotal and slewing movements of the boom structure to position the platform as desired within a given range of horizontal and vertical movements.
  • the lateral projection of the support arm may be such that the boom structure can be pivoted about the said horizontal axis or axes to positions below the level of the carriage.
  • the mobile platform-carrying machine according to the invention finds a particularly useful application in the inspection and maintenance of relatively inaccessible structures.
  • the underside of a road or railway viaduct may be inspected from overhead by a platform carried by a machine according to the invention, the machine carriage resting on the viaduct itself. This avoids the need for expensive and time-consuming scaffolding construction.
  • the ability to swing the boom structure about a vertical axis spaced laterally outwardly of the supporting carriage further facilitates the inspection of inaccessible structures, enabling the load platform to be moved into a recess, tunnel or arch in a direction inclined to the direction of carriage movement, by suitable slewing movement of the boom structure.
  • the boom structure is adapted for pivotal movement about said horizontal axis or axes selectively to permit either raising or lowering of the platform relative to the level of the carriage.
  • the support arm is movable about a vertical axis on the carriage between an inoperative position in which the said arm and the boom structure carried thereby are gener-
  • the support arm carries a turntable at its projecting end on which the boom structure is supported, and including means for controllably rotating the turntable to control the slewing movement of the boom structure.
  • the boom structure preferably comprises a first boom pivotally-attached at one end to the turntable and at its other end to one end of a second boom, the load platform being carried at the other end of the second boom.

  • the pivotal movement of the booms 8 and 9 about the horizontal axes H and H are independently controllable by respective actuators.
  • the actuators can be hydraulic rams or may for example comprise hydraulic torque actuators or mechanical worm/wheel drives.
  • the actuators for controlling the first boom 8 comprise a pair of hydraulic double-acting rams 15 (FIG. 2) pivotally attached to the turntable 5 at a common pivot axis 16 (FIGS. 3 and 4).
  • the rams 15 have pivotal connections to the first boom arms 10 and 1 1 which are spaced from the horizontal pivot axis H Means are provided for changing the pivotal connections of the rams'lS to the boom arms 10, 11 according as the first boom 8 is to be raised or lowered: for raising the boom 8 the rams 15 are fully extended and connected to the boom 8 at a pivot axis 17A. Retraction of the rams 15 then raises the boom 8.
  • the rams 15 are fully retracted and connected to the boom 8 at a 'pivot axis 173; extension of the rams 15 then lowers the boom 8.
  • the horizontal spacing of the pivot axes 17A and 17B from the axis 16 is respectively greater and less than the horizontal spacing of the hinge axis I-I from the axis 16 when the boom 8 is horizontal, as shown in FIG. 4.
  • Changeover of the pivot axes 17A and 17B is effected when the boom 8 is supported on the carriage l in the collapsed horizontal position shown in FIG. 1, with the support arm 4 in its inopera tive position, aligned with the centreline XX of the carriage 1.
  • the rams 15 may act upon the boom arms 10 and 11 by way of suitable linkages, as shown in FIG. 5, which dispenses with the need for such changeover.
  • Each linkage consists of two links 18, 19 pivotally interconnected at a pivot pin 20 and pivotally connected at their respective ends remote from the pivot pin 20 to the respective first boom arm (10 in FIG. 5) and to the turntable 5.
  • the rams 15 are pivotally connected to the respective pivot pins 20 of the two linkages, the latter being such that the axis of the pivot pin 20 is above the horizontal pivot axis H, of the first boom arms l0, 11 throughout the operating range of raised and lowered angular positions of the first boom 8.
  • the actuator for controllingpivotal movement of the second boom 9 relative to the first boom 8 is shown diagrammatically by broken lines 21 and comprises a rotary torque generating actuator, either electrical or hydraulic, or a mechanical worm wheel drive, located at the end of the first boom 8 and acting directly on the second boom 9.
  • a ram having two alternative positions of attachment to one of the booms may be used for this purpose, the ram being interposed between thetwo booms 8, 9, in an arrangement similar to that of the rams 15 between the boom 8 and the tumtable 5.
  • Each of the booms 8, 9 is of hollow box-section.
  • the second boom 9, which is of square box section, houses a relatively slidable extension 22 which can be retracted fully within the boom 9 or extended by a telescopic action to vary the effective length of the boom 9 as desired.
  • An hydraulic actuator 23 (broken lines) is housed within the hollow boom 9 for controlling the extension and retraction of the boom extension 22.
  • Other actuator means may, of course, be employed for this purpose.
  • All the various actuators referred to above can be controlled from the platform 7 by means of suitable manual valves and/or switches 24 on the platform. These controls are duplicated in a control cab 25 mounted on the carriage l.

  • the stabilising system consists of a pendulum sensing unit 26 carried by the platform 7 and adapted to provide electrical signals which pass through leads (indicated by a chain-dotted line in FIG. 1) within the booms 8, 9 and via an amplifier (not shown) to a solenoid valve 27.
  • the valve regulates the distribution of hydraulic fluid to a rotary hydraulic motor 28 located within the boom extension 22.
  • the motor 28 drives a worm 29 which meshes with a worm wheel 30 rigidly attached to the platform 7 and coaxial with the pivot axis I-I of the latter.
  • This servosystem is arranged so that the rotation imparted to the worm 29 is always such as to maintain the base of the platform 7 horizontal, and the pendulum unit 26 in a neutral position.
  • the platform levelling servo-system is controlled by a pendulum unit it is insensitive to any inclination to the horizontal of the rails 2 on which the carriage l rests.
  • the hydraulic connections to the motor 28 are by way of flexible for example, coiled hoses 31 (shown by broken lines) which pass through the hollow booms 8, 9 and which permit the full range of extension of the boom 9. In the event of an hydraulic pressure failure the motor 28 is effectively locked so that the platform 7 is then held rigidly relative to the boom 9.
