  • the present invention relates to an overhead crane comprises a bridge moveably arranged attached to a first runway beam and a second runway beam.
  • Prior art Overhead cranes are widely used in various permanent and temporary installations such as temporary roof coverings and scaffolding used for renovation and building projects.
  • a typical overhead crane comprises a bridge moveably arranged between a first runway beam and a second runway beam. The bridge is suspended in the first runway beam by means of a first joint assembly and to the second runway beam by means of a second joint assembly in such a manner that the bridge extends perpendicular to the first runway beam and a second runway beam. Accordingly, the bridge can be translated along the length of the runway beams.
  • WO2009065183A1 discloses a carriage for a bridge crane assembly.
  • the carriage comprises a pair of spaced apart mounting plates, a plurality of rollers rotatably mounted in a substantially vertical orientation to the mounting plates for longitudinal movement of the carriage along a respective guide track of the bridge crane assembly, an elongate member extending between the mounting plates and a displacement arm pivotally coupled at a first end to the elongate member.
  • the displacement arm has at least one second end for pivotal connection to a bridge.
  • the bridge comprising an attachment means for supporting a lifting device of the bridge crane assembly.
  • the overhead crane according to the invention is an overhead crane comprising a bridge moveably attached to a first runway beam and a second runway beam, wherein the bridge is suspended in the first runway beam by means of a first joint assembly and to the second runway beam by means of a second joint assembly, wherein a hoist is moveably attached to the bridge, wherein the first joint assembly is configured to allow the bridge to rotate about a first vertical axis of rotation, wherein the second joint assembly is configured to allow the bridge to rotate about a second vertical axis of rotation, wherein the first joint assembly or the second joint assembly is configured to be displaced (translated) along the longitudinal axis of the bridge.
  • the overhead crane allows the first runway beam to be angled relative to the second runway beam in such a manner that the first runway beam and the second runway beam are not parallel.
  • the overhead crane is suitable for being used in temporary installations.
  • the overhead crane comprises a bridge moveably attached to a first runway beam and a second runway beam.
  • the overhead crane comprising a bridge moveably arranged between a first runway beam and a second runway beam.
  • the bridge is constructed as a truss structure to provide a low weight construction.
  • the bridge is suspended in the first runway beam by means of a first joint assembly and to the second runway beam by means of a second joint assembly. Accordingly, the first joint assembly and the second joint assembly are configured to allow the bridge to rotate about a vertical axis of rotation, wherein the first joint assembly or the second joint assembly is configured to be displaced (translated) along the longitudinal axis of the bridge.
  • the first joint assembly is configured to allow the bridge to rotate about a first vertical axis of rotation.
  • the second joint assembly is configured to allow the bridge to rotate about a second vertical axis of rotation.
  • the first joint assembly or the second joint assembly is configured to be displaced (translated) along the longitudinal axis of the bridge.
  • the bridge can be rotated relative to the first runway beam by means of the first joint assembly and to the second runway beam by means of the second joint assembly. Since the first joint assembly or the second joint assembly is configured to be displaced (translated) along the longitudinal axis of the bridge, it is possible to move the bridge along the length of the first runway beam and the second runway beam even when the first runway beam and the second runway beam are not parallel.
  • the first joint assembly and the second joint assembly are configured to allow the bridge to be rotated about its longitudinal axis. This is a major advantage, especially if the bridge is made as a truss construction. A truss construction is typically not designed to withstand large torsional forces.

  • the first runway beam and the second runway beam in different vertical positions. Accordingly, it is possible to apply the bridge even if it is not horizontal.
  • the assembly process of the bridge can be eased. Typically, one will initially assemble the bridge along its entire length. Hereafter, the bridge needs to be elevated and clicked into the couplings at the trolleys.
  • first and second joint assembly were not used, one would need to elevate the entire bridge while extending perfectly horizontally and click it into the couplings. If the bridge did not extend perfectly horizontally, the bridge would twist in one of the couplings.
  • the hoist is battery driven. Hereby, wires can be avoided. Accordingly, it is possibly to provide a simpler construction.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un pont roulant (2) comprenant un pont (4) disposé de manière mobile entre une première poutre de chemin de roulement (6) et une seconde poutre de chemin de roulement (8). Le pont (4) est suspendu à la première poutre de chemin de roulement (6) au moyen d'un premier ensemble jonction (10) et à la seconde poutre de chemin de roulement (8) au moyen d'un second ensemble jonction (12). Un treuil (14) est fixé de manière mobile au pont (4). Le premier ensemble jonction (10) et le second ensemble jonction (12) sont configurés pour permettre au pont (4) de tourner autour d'un axe de rotation vertical. Le premier ensemble jonction (10) ou le second ensemble jonction (12) est configuré pour être déplacé (en translation) le long de l'axe longitudinal du pont (4).
