- the outrigger support mechanism is provided with a first power means for extending and retracting the beam relative to the frame.
- the outrigger is provided with a second power means for pivoting the arm relative to the beam between an upward transport position and downward support positions.
- downward support positions refers to support positions in which the support arm is oriented downward, relative to the transport position.
- the first power means comprises an extensible and retractable double-acting hydraulic cylinder 38.
- cylinder 38 is substantially horizontally disposed and located within frame 32.
- One end of cylinder 38 is connected to frame 32 through rod 40; the opposite end of cylinder 38 is connected to beam 34 through rod 44.
- the second power means comprises an extensible and retractable hydraulic cylinder 42.
- Hydraulic cylinder 42 is substantially horizontally disposed and located within beam 34. Cylinder 42 is also located within frame 32 when the outrigger support mechanism is in the transport position (FIG. 2).
- One end of hydraulic cylinder 42 is connected to beam 34 by pivotal attachment to rod 44.
- the other end of cylinder 42 is pivotally connected to arm 24 at pivot pin 46.
- Hydraulic cylinders 38 and 42 are independently connected with conventional fluid pressure sources and a fluid reservoir (not shown) so that the cylinders may be extendedand retracted by operation of conventional hydraulic controls (not shown).
- the support arm of the outrigger of the present invention may be moved between the transport position and a plurality of operative support positions intermediate to the transport position and maximum downward support positions.
- the beam may be moved inwardly or outwardly of the frame, independently of the position of the support arm.
- the support arm may be moved between the transport position and support positions, without regard to the position of the beam.
- beam 34 may be extended outwardly from frame 32 by actuating hydraulic cylinder 38.
- cylinder 38 When cylinder 38 is extended from a contracted position (shown in FIG. 2) to an extended position (shown in FIG. 3) force will be exerted against rods 40 and 44 causing beam 34 to slide outwardly from frame 32 in a longitudinal direction.
- rods 40 and 44 When cylinder 38 is retracted, beam 34 will be retracted into frame 32. Movement of beam 34 is not dependent upon the position of arm 24.
- arm 24 may be articulated about pivot pin 36 by actuation of cylinder 42.
- cylinder 42 When cylinder 42 is extended from a contracted position (shown in FIG. 2) to an extended position (shown in FIG. 3) force will be exerted against rods 44 and pivot pin 46. Cylinder 42 will pivot about rod 44 in a slightly upward direction and arm 24 will pivot downwardly about pivot pin 36. Similarly, when cylinder 42 is retracted, arm 24 pivots upwardly towards the transport position shown in'FlG. 2. As is apparent, movement of arm 24 is not dependent upon the position of beam 34.
- arm 24 when beam 34 is fully retracted, arm 24 may be pivoted downwardly until the center point of pivot pin 28 is in support position A. Arm 24 may be further pivoted to support position B or to any intermediate support position on the arm between A and B. Similarly, with beam 34 fully extended, arm 24 may be pivoted downwardly so that the center point of pivot pin 28 is in support position C. Arm 24 may be further pivoted to maximum downward support position D or to any intermediate position on the are between C and D. It will be appreciated that arm 24 can similarly be pivoted, by means of cylinder 42, to various support positions when beam 34 has been extended to positions intermediate the extreme retracted position shown in FIG. 2 and the extreme extended position shown in FIG. 3.
- support can be provided with the center point of pivot pin 28 located anywhere within the cross-hatched area of FIG. 2.
- the operator can select a desired support position from a wide variety of possible support positions. Selection of a particular support position will of course, be dependent upon obstructions, terrain, etc. in the area of the device being stabilized.
- cylinders 38 and 42 are retracted, causing beam 34 to retract into frame 32 and arm 24 to pivot upwardly.
- Ground-engaging pad 26 may be rotated inwardly of arm 24 (as shown in the fully lined illustration of FIG. 2) to achieve minimum overall transportation width.
- ground line 48 This represents the plane, on flat terrain, upon which the device to be stabilized would rest.
- ground line 48 could represent the plane upon which the tires of a crane truck would set.
- arm 24 and pad 26 may be positioned below the normal ground line.
- Such a feature allows the stabilized device to be lifted entirely off of the ground by the outrigger support mechanism.
- such a feature allows for support in areas where the ground falls away from the device being stabilized. As an example, it is often necessary to support crane trucks and the like on narrow, raised road beds. Under such conditions, support can only be obtained by moving support arms to a level below the level at which the wheels of the vehicle rest.
- cylinder 38 is equipped with check valves which lock oil in the cylinder so that support of arm 24 is not dependent on hoses, fittings, other valves in the system, etc.
