Definitions

• the bracket comprises a centre, wherein within the centre of the bracket the connection to the component and/or to the fixing element is providable.
• the centre of the bracket denotes a section of the bracket that is farthest away from the edges of the component along a substantially horizontal plane.
• the cantilever arm is pivotably mounted to the bracket.
• the cantilever arm is pivotably mounted around a pivoting axis that extends substantially in a vertical direction when lift ⁇ ing the controlling device.
• a proper control of the component during lifting is achieved.
• the alignment of the control rope and of the pivotable cantilever arm is adjusted dependent on the changed wind direction.
• the cantilever arm may be pivoted until the longitudinal direction of the canti ⁇ lever arm along the horizontal plane is parallel to the di ⁇ rection of the wind.
• an improved controlling of the whole controlling device is possible.
• the bracket comprises a plurality of spatially distributed mounting sec ⁇ tions.
• the first end section of the cantilever arm is mount- able to at least one of the plurality of mounting sections, so that the desired mounting location of the cantilever arm with respect to the component is adjustable.
• mounting sections may denote pins or mounting holes, to which a corresponding pin or mounting hole of the cantilever arm may be attached. Due to a plurality of spa- tially distributed mounting sections at the bracket, the can ⁇ tilever arm may be mounted to the bracket in a plurality of different locations, dependent on the design of the component to be lifted. Thus, a more flexible control device is
• the cantilever arm 102 is formed telescopically, so that the cantilever arm 102 may be adjustable in its length. Thus, a more flexible cantilever arm 102 may be achieved.
• the control unit 107 may additionally or alternatively control the length of the cantilever arm 102 or the pivotal alignment of the cantilever arm 102.
• the cantilever arm 102 runs from a centre 112 of the bracket 101 radially outwards from the bracket along a substantially horizontal direction. From the second end 104 of the cantile ⁇ ver arm 102 the control rope 105 runs to the ground. The can- tilever arm 102 generates a distance along a substantially horizontal direction between the control rope 105 and the component 200. Thus, a contact between the control rope 105 and the component 200 during lifting may be prevented, so that damages of the component 200 and the control rope 105 caused by a contact between each other is prevented.
