  • the chassis When supporting a large manipulator with four pivoting or telescoping outriggers, the chassis can be warped, especially if the height of individual outrigger legs is readjusted at the end of the outrigger process to level the chassis. Unnecessarily high support forces can occur on individual support legs even before the large manipulator is put into operation, while the support forces on other support legs are too low.
  • chassis refers to the combination of the chassis of the truck on which the large manipulator is mounted and the base frame on which the working boom is mounted and which contains the other components of the large manipulator.
  • this unbalanced support load distribution means that individual support legs or the outriggers are loaded more heavily than necessary or even overloaded.
  • WO 2005/095256 A1 proposes coupled control of the drive units of the four support legs with the aid of a manually operated control element for the automatic support process of a large manipulator in the form of a truck-mounted concrete pump in order to avoid distortion of the base frame during the support process due to an uneven distribution of support force.

  • the center of gravity of the large manipulator does not have to be known beforehand.
  • the torsional movement is generated by two supporting legs lying diagonally to one another being extended or retracted in the same direction, in particular lifting or lowering, while the other two supporting legs lying diagonally to one another are each retracted or extended in opposite directions be, in particular lowering or lifting.
  • the torsional movement is generated by controlling the extension speed of the respective support legs.
  • the program-controlled support aid is advantageously set up to minimize the sum of the squares of the support forces of the support legs for the unbraced erection of the chassis. Investigations have shown that the large manipulator is set up largely without restraint if the sum of the squares of the recorded supporting forces is minimal. The program-controlled support aid can easily determine the support forces and then set them according to this criterion through the targeted torsional movement.
  • the program-controlled support aid carries out the torsional movement in one direction of movement for the respective support legs as long as the sum of the squares of the support forces becomes smaller.
  • the program-controlled support aid can adjust the support forces in a targeted manner in the direction of minimizing the sum of the squares of the support forces until the optimal support forces are determined or set.
  • the program-controlled support aid is set up to calculate the support forces for which the sum of the squares of the support forces of the support legs is minimal, in order to determine a target value for the sum of the squares of the support forces.
  • the program-controlled support aid preferably contains a regulation which adjusts the sum of the squares of the supporting forces of the support legs to the calculated target value, with the torsional movement being used as the manipulated variable for the regulation.
  • the target values of the support forces can be set quickly and specifically.
  • the desired value for the sum of the squares of the support forces for the regulation is preferably selected to be smaller than the calculated desired value. This measure ensures that in the event of minor errors in the target value calculation due to only imprecisely known parameters of the large manipulator (loading status, fill level in the water tank, etc.), which can lead to the calculated target value for the sum of the squares of the Supporting forces is higher than the optimum that can actually be achieved and the controller would thus set a non-optimal distribution of the supporting forces, always setting that distribution of the supporting forces which corresponds to the optimum that can actually be achieved for supporting the large manipulator.
  • the large manipulator preferably has sensors that detect the horizontal extension of the outriggers and the program-controlled support aid determines the direction of the torsional movement required to minimize the sum of the squares of the support forces based on the horizontal extension of the outriggers and the measured support forces.

  • the program-controlled support aid can correct or adjust the inclination of the chassis about the longitudinal axis by superimposing the torsional movement with a tilting movement about the longitudinal axis (rolling movement).
  • Large manipulator regulates the longitudinal axis in the supported state to a setpoint. Through this regulation, for example, an inclination of the large manipulator about the longitudinal axis desired by the operator can be specified and adjusted accordingly.
  • the large manipulator has an inclination sensor that determines the inclination of the chassis of the large manipulator about the transverse axis (pitch angle) in the supported state.
