TITLE QF THE INVENTION: A MOUNTING FRASVSE
iCAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates generally to a so-called mounting frame, and more particularly, but not exclusively to a mounting frame which can be used as an intermediate orientated arrangement to readily fit and remove a remotely controllable crane arrangement or crane arm arrangement, connected to a foundation, such as a foundation in the form of a vehicle.
To this end the foundation includes, in the illustrated embodiment, four fastener units or means, which can be affixed to the mounting frame or to the crane arrangement or to the crane-arm arrangement, these fastener units or means being orientated so that when fitted, although readily removable, are able to co-act with the attachments of the mounting frame, wherewith each of these attachments shai! be orientated towards mutually opposed end portions of each of two or more beam constructions used.
The inventive mounting frame was primarily intended to function as a mounting frame for a special lorry, designated by the Trade Name "Compactor", which enables a crane arrangement or crane-arm arrangement to be placed in a relatively high or elevated position, in which it can be remotely controlled, for instance by means intended to this end with the aid of wire-bounded or wireless signal transmission, so as to be able to control one or more of the functions located to the crane arrangement or to the crane-arm arrangement.
The special properties or criteria of the present invention lie in the general configuration of the mounting frame, which enables the frame to be adapted to other areas of use, such as smai! crane arrangements or crane-arm arrangements mounted onto other foundations, such as on smaller vehicles, implement frames, and/or buckets.
One particular application may be to aliow a small crane arrangement or crane-arm arrangement to be fitted to large buckets, such as for a selective sorting and/or weighing of waste materials at environment stations and/or environmental depots.
The present invention is intended for an appiication in respect of both a crane arrangement and of a crane-arm arrangement, with or by which two crane arms are mutu- aϋy co-ordinated rotatably, with the aid of a rotationai shaft, which connects the crane
A crane arm arrangement, that includes two crane arms only, is illustrated in the following accompanying description.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVEMTION
Methods, arrangements and constructions related to the above technical field and that have a function and a nature, which fulfils given requirements are known to the art in a number of different forms.
By way of example of the background of the technique and the technical field to which the invention relates can be mentioned a mounting frame, which provides an intermediate arrangement to which a crane arrangement or a crane arm arrangement can be readily fitted and readily removed from a foundation, which includes a number, such as four, fastener units or means, which can be fastened to the arrangement and which are intended for fixed, but readily releasable, co-action with frame-related attachments, each being orientated towards mutually opposite end portions of each of two or more parallel-related beam constructions used.
The use of different types of mounting frames is not restricted to this particular technical field but is also known in adjacent technical fields with the use of different types of mounting frames, which are adapted towards and to its allotted foundation and to the use of arrangement fastening components, such as units or means. Similar arrangements are disciosed in the foiiowing patent publications; US-A-3 918 592, JP-A-2003 341 983 and US-A-4 700 851.
Thus the patent publication US-A-3 918 592 discloses a mounting frame, adapted to rest towards a lorry.
More specially this publication illustrates a flat compact supporting base for a building material handling crane attached to the bed of a pick-up truck or the like with only four bolts and is readily removable from the truck.
A crane boom in piural sections is connected to the bed centrally and is held in a used position by a pair of guy cables and an opposing chain with tightening means.
A power hoist is mountable on the base and has a hoisting cable which is reeved over a sheave on the outermost boom section.
Publication JP-A-2003 341 983 discloses an arrangement for execute loading and unloading work in a short time and efficiently by installing a simplified crane onto a small vehicle, suck as a truck and a tractor.
Sn this respect the vehicle comprises a simplified crane (A), comprising a pillar (1) rotatabie in a pillar circumference direction, a boom (2) with a hook (6) installed on the pillar (1) to be capable of swinging, and a flange part (7), formed at the lower end of the pillar (1), a base (B) having a receiving part (10) where the flange part (7) is placed, and a cavity part (S) on the lower surface side of the receiving part (10) for the flange part and a vehicle (D) onto which the simplified crane (A) is installed.
The base (B) is installed on a proper position of the vehicle (D).
The flange part (7) of the simplified crane (A) is fixed to the receiving part (10) on the base (B) through a fixing device (20). Patent publication US-A-4 700 851 discloses a lightweight, self powered, transportable crane assembly, which includes a frame that can be selectively coupled to and uncoupled from the bed of a transport vehicle or carrier, such as a pick-up truck or trailer.
The frame assembly a!so includes stabilizing legs which can be extended laterally from the frame assembly to stabilize the crane during use and further to aliow the crane assembly to be self supporting apart from the truck or trailer.
The crane assembly also can be coupled to a ballast structure such as a water tank or the like to permit its use apart from the transport vehicle.
