Abstract

The invention relates to a method for perceiving dangerous movements carried out by cranes, especially those which are controlled by a crane driver sitting in a booth, wherein an optical and/or acoustic display integrated into the controls for said crane is used. According to the invention, an on/off voice output is used as an acoustic display.

Description

Verfahren zur Wahrnehmung gefahrbringender Bewegungen bei KranenProcedure for perceiving dangerous movements in cranes
Beschreibungdescription
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Wahrnehmung gefahrbringender Bewegungen bei Kranen, insbesondere solcher, die von einem in einer Kabine sitzenden Kranführer bedient werden, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1.The invention relates to a method for perceiving dangerous movements in cranes, in particular those which are operated by a crane operator sitting in a cabin, according to the preamble of claim 1.
Kransteuerungen haben im Bereich der Belastungskontrolle und im Bereich der Bewegungs- und Leistungsbegrenzung die Aufgabe, gefahrbringende Bewegungen zu vermeiden bzw. vor ihnen zu warnen. Teilweise wirkt die Belastungskontrolle im Zusammenhang mit der Kransteuerung oder sie ist alleine wirkend. In bekannter Weise bedient man sich zur Wahrnehmung gefahrbringender Bewegungen optischer Anzeigen (z. B. Aufleuchten bzw. Blinken einer roten Lampe) und zusätzlicher akustischer Anzeigen, die typischerweise als Summer oder Ähnliches ausgeführt sind.In the area of load control and in the area of movement and performance limitation, crane controls have the task of avoiding dangerous movements or warning of them. In some cases, the load control works in connection with the crane control or it works alone. In a known manner, optical displays (for example lighting or blinking of a red lamp) and additional acoustic displays, which are typically designed as a buzzer or the like, are used to perceive dangerous movements.
Grundsätzlich erfordern die Anzeigen bei der Vielzahl der möglichen Zustände eine Kontrolle der Anzeigeinstrumente, sobald das Warnsignal zu hören bzw. die optische Anzeige zu sehen ist. Daher wird der Kranführer seine Aufmerksamkeit zumindest für eine kurze Zeit auf die Anzeigeninstrumente richten und nicht die Bewegung der Last beobachten.In view of the large number of possible states, the displays generally require the display instruments to be checked as soon as the warning signal is heard or the optical display can be seen. Therefore, the crane operator will pay attention to the display instruments at least for a short time and will not observe the movement of the load.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein Verfahren zur Wahrnehmung gefahrbringender Bewegungen bei Kranen anzugeben, bei dem der Kranführer die Beobachtung der Bewegung der Last nicht unterbrechen muss.The object of the invention is to provide a method for perceiving dangerous movements in cranes, in which the crane operator does not have to interrupt the observation of the movement of the load.
Diese Aufgabe wird ausgehend vom Oberbegriff in Verbindung mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Patentanspruches 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen sind jeweils Gegenstand von Unteransprüchen.This object is achieved on the basis of the preamble in conjunction with the characterizing features of patent claim 1. Advantageous further developments are the subject of subclaims.
Nach der Lehre der Erfindung ist die akustische Anzeige eine zu- und abschaltbareAccording to the teaching of the invention, the acoustic display can be switched on and off
Sprachausgabe. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass wesentliche relevante Informationen den Kranführer gezielt erreichen, ohne dass er seinen Blick von der Last nehmen muss. Die Zu- und Abschaltbarkeit der Sprachausgabe steht im Zusammenhang mit dem in der Krankabine aktuell vorherrschenden Geräuschpegel. Ist dieser wegen Baulärm von außen zu hoch, muss aus Sicherheitsgründen in jedem Fall auf optische Anzeigen und Hinweise zurückgegriffen werden.Voice output. This has the advantage that essential, relevant information reaches the crane operator in a targeted manner, without having to take his eyes off the load. The ability to switch the speech output on and off is related to the current noise level in the crane cabin. If this is too high due to construction noise from the outside, visual indicators and information must be used for safety reasons.
Nach einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung erfolgt die Sprachausgabe zusätzlich an die unmittelbare Außenumgebung des Kranes mittels eines Lautsprechers. Dadurch werden Personen in der Umgebung des Kranes detaillierter als nur über rein akustische Anzeigen, die selber keinen Informationsgehalt haben, über etwaige Gefährdungen informiert.According to a further feature of the invention, the speech is additionally output to the immediate outside environment of the crane by means of a loudspeaker. As a result, people in the vicinity of the crane are informed of any hazards in more detail than just purely acoustic displays, which themselves have no information content.
Die Verwendung der Sprache bei der Bedienung des Kranes kann man auch dazu nutzen, dass Sprachsignale des Kranfahrers in die Kransteuerung eingebbar und umsetzbar sind. Der Eingriff in die Kransteuerung ist auf diese Weise schneller als das Suchen nach dem entsprechenden Bedienungsknopf bzw. die Betätigung des entsprechenden Steuerhebels. Beispielsweise ist das gerufene "Halt" als Spracheingabe schneller zur Ausführung gebracht als das Aktivieren entsprechender Bedienknöpfe, Hebel oder Pedale.The use of the language when operating the crane can also be used to enable voice signals from the crane driver to be input and implemented in the crane control system. Intervention in the crane control is faster than searching for the corresponding control button or operating the corresponding control lever. For example, the called "Halt" can be executed faster as a voice input than the activation of corresponding control buttons, levers or pedals.
Um die Vorteile einer solchen mit Sprachausgabe versehenen Steuerung eines Kranes auch über Landesgrenzen hinweg nutzen zu können, ist nach einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung vorgesehen, dass die Informationen zur Sprachausgabe in verschiedenen Landessprachen hinterlegt sind, so dass die Sprachausgabe in der dem Kranführer verständlichen Landessprache erfolgen kann. In order to be able to use the advantages of such a control of a crane provided with voice output, even beyond national borders, it is provided according to a further feature of the invention that the information for voice output is stored in different national languages, so that the voice output takes place in the national language which the crane driver understands can.
