Definitions

  • the invention relates to a construction crane with a superstructure with telescopic boom, the superstructure being arranged on a semi-trailer and releasably connected to the semi-trailer.
  • the invention further relates to a construction crane system with such a construction crane.
  • Mobile or mobile cranes are known in different configurations. Since such mobile cranes have to use public roads to get to the place of use, they are subject to the legally prescribed approval restrictions with regard to their maximum total weight. For example, vehicles with four axles are only permitted with a maximum weight of 32 t without a permit, otherwise special permits are required, which are expensive to obtain in individual cases and have to be renewed again and again if necessary.
  • construction cranes have recently been increasingly used, in which the superstructure is built on the chassis of a conventional truck. If the total weight does not exceed the permissible limit, such a construction crane only requires a normal truck registration.
  • construction cranes are also known in which the superstructure is built on a long semi-trailer.
  • the permissible total weight of a five-axle tractor-trailer combination is 40 t or 44 t.
  • a long tractor-trailer is, on the one hand, difficult to maneuver and, on the other hand, certain places of use, for example in closed buildings or the like, cannot be reached at all.
  • a crane which can be transported by means of a road vehicle.
  • the crane has an independent wagon with which it can be detachably placed on an assigned road vehicle and, when removed, can be moved and maneuvered independently.
  • a construction crane with a superstructure with telescopic boom in which the superstructure is arranged on a semi-trailer and can be raised by height-adjustable supports that can be lowered to the floor.
  • the crane superstructure is detachably connected to the semi-trailer and the supports are arranged on the crane superstructure in such a way that the crane superstructure can be released from the semi-trailer in the position raised by the supports and the semi-trailer can be moved away under the free-standing crane superstructure.
  • the object of the invention is to constructively improve such a construction crane and to make it usable in a variable manner.
  • the construction crane according to the invention has the advantages of construction cranes with regard to an approval that is not required; moreover, it can be used variably.
  • the crane superstructure can be easily separated from the container chassis by releasing the container locking system and, if necessary, arranged on a different chassis.
  • Such container chassis, which are otherwise used to transport containers, are already equipped as standard with quick locking devices which can be used for the detachable connection to the crane superstructure.
  • the container locking system is a twistlock system which is common in container chassis and is also particularly well suited for connection to the crane superstructure.
  • the crane superstructure can be raised by height-adjustable supports that can be lowered to the floor, the crane superstructure being releasable relative to the container chassis in the position raised by the supports.
  • the adjustable supports are on the substructure of the crane superstructure arranged and depending on the design of the container chassis designed so that they can be pivoted away when not in use, for example.
  • the crane superstructure can be separated from the container chassis and raised against it and set up freely; the container chassis can then be pulled out by the tractor unit under the crane superstructure, so that the pivotability of the crane boom is not impaired by the container chassis and the tractor unit.
  • the superstructure has its own drive motor. If the crane superstructure is separated from the container chassis and is free-standing or is coupled to another chassis, the drive motor serves to drive at least one hydraulic pump for the hydraulic system. When the crane superstructure is coupled to a further chassis, the further chassis can also be driven by the drive motor of the crane superstructure via a suitable (detachable) kinematic connection.
  • the drive motor is designed as an electric motor or as a gas motor. If an electric motor is used, it can either be connected to an external voltage source via an electrical cable or the crane superstructure can be equipped with batteries. Due to their high weight, these batteries can replace the otherwise necessary counterweight in whole or in part, so that no additional space is required.
  • the construction crane is a pick and carry crane, that is to say that it has no bogie between the superstructure and the jib.
  • Pick and carry cranes of this type are suitable for lifting loads of up to 100 t and moving them in the raised position.
  • the invention also provides a body crane system with a body crane and a further chassis, on which the superstructure can be detachably arranged. After the construction crane has been transported to the place of use on the container chassis, the superstructure can be separated from the container chassis in the manner described above. The superstructure is then arranged on another chassis and connected to it and can then be moved by this further chassis in the area of the place of use.
  • the further chassis and the crane superstructure are releasably connected to each other by a container locking system, which facilitates the releasable connection, since the crane superstructure is equipped with this locking system (preferably twistlock) anyway.
  • the further chassis is designed to be self-propelled with its own travel drive.
  • a (detachable) kinematic connection to the travel drive of the further chassis is provided by the crane superstructure with its own drive motor or the travel drive of the further chassis has its own drive motor.
  • the further chassis is a heavy duty trolley. With such a heavy duty trolley, the crane can then be moved from the unloading point to the actual place of use, e.g. in hard-to-reach places or inside halls and the like
  • the further chassis has at least one crawler chassis, whereby the maneuverability is increased.
  • the front axle of the further chassis is designed as a crawler chassis and the rear axle as a wheel axle.
  • the front axle of the further chassis and thus the crane superstructure arranged thereon is thus formed by a crawler chassis, which thus only extends in the front area of the crane, while the rear axle is designed as a wheel axle.
  • the load in the front area of the crane is not transferred to the ground in a linear manner, ie as a line load, but through the crawler chassis as a surface load, which leads to the front axle or crawler chassis can absorb or transmit significantly higher loads. This makes it possible to significantly increase the payload.
  • the load on the subsurface is also positively influenced, since the load is distributed over the entire surface of the subsurface.
  • This configuration of the further undercarriage is particularly well suited for a superstructure in the form of a pick on carry cranes.
  • Each chain of the crawler chassis can have its own travel drive.
  • the crawler undercarriage is fundamentally suitable for also realizing the steerability of the crane by driving the two sides or chains of the crawler undercarriage in different directions.
  • the chains of the crawler tracks have a common travel drive, in which case the rear axle is preferably designed to be steerable.
  • a construction crane has a superstructure, generally designated 1, which is detachably arranged on a container chassis 2.
  • this container chassis 2 has three axles 3, the fourth axle is formed by the rear axle of the tractor unit (not shown) arranged in the region of a kingpin 4 and the fifth axle by the front axle of the tractor unit.
  • Such a five-axle tractor-trailer combination can have a maximum weight of up to 40 t or 44 t in Germany without additional approval.
  • the crane superstructure 1 can thus have a weight of more than 30 t.
  • the crane superstructure 1 is equipped with a telescopic boom, generally designated 5, an operator's cabin 6 is also indicated, as is a counterweight 7.
  • the substructure 8 of the crane superstructure 1 is shown in FIG 1 to 3 and 5 arranged in all four corner areas of height-adjustable (hydraulic) supports 9 which, depending on the geometrical dimensions of the crane superstructure 1 and the container chassis 2, can also be pivoted away laterally in the transport position.
  • the container chassis 2 is a commercially available container chassis which has a releasable container locking system (e.g. twist lock system) for attaching a container to be attached to it.
  • a releasable container locking system e.g. twist lock system
  • Pivot-like fastening elements are used for the detachable fastening of the substructure 8 of the crane superstructure 1, which is accordingly equipped with fastening elements 11 that are complementary therewith, in which the fastening elements 10 can interlockingly but releasably engage.
  • the superstructure crane formed in this way can thus be operated as a normal tractor unit on public roads, a special approval is not required as long as the permissible total weight of 40 t or 44 t is not exceeded for a five-axle tractor-trailer combination.
  • the crane superstructure 1 Due to the detachable connection between the crane superstructure 1 and the container chassis 2, it is possible that the crane superstructure is lifted from the four supports 9 at the place of use or use after the connection to the container chassis 2 has been released and is released relative to the container chassis 2.
  • the crane superstructure 1 then stands with the four supports 9 on a base 12 and the container chassis 2 can be moved out under the crane superstructure 1 and does not restrict the range of motion of the jib 5 of the crane superstructure 1 during work.
  • the crane superstructure 1 can also have its own drive motor, not shown, which is preferably an electric motor or gas engine.
  • a connection to an external voltage source can be made via a suitable electrical cable or the crane superstructure 1 can be equipped with batteries. Due to their high weight, these batteries can replace the counterweight 7 in whole or in part, so that no additional space is required.
  • This drive motor can on the one hand drive a hydraulic pump for the boom 5 or other hydraulic components and, on the other hand, can also serve as a drive for a further chassis if the superstructure 1 is separated from the container chassis and arranged on a further chassis.
  • FIG. 2 the crane superstructure 1 is shown raised, the container chassis 2 is still below it, Fig. 3 shows the situation in which the crane superstructure 1 is free with its supports 9 on the ground 12 without a container chassis 2.
  • the superstructure 1 has no supports, in which case it can be from another crane or the like from the container chassis 2 raised and removed from this.
  • the crane superstructure 1 can then be detachably connected to a further chassis, which according to the exemplary embodiment Fig. 4 has a crawler track 13 instead of a front axle and a rear axle 14 with wheels 15.
  • Both the crawler chassis 13 and the rear axle 14 are each arranged on a base body 16 or 17, which in each case has at least two pivot-like fastening elements 18 and 19 on the top side, which are releasably connectable to the fastening elements 11 on the crane superstructure 1 and together form a releasable container locking system , ie the detachable connection between the crane superstructure 1 and the container chassis 2 and between the crane superstructure 1 and the further chassis is the same.
  • the two base bodies 16 and 17 can alternatively also form a common base body.
  • the crane superstructure 1 can also be equipped with supports 9.
  • the crawler track 17 has at least one, but possibly also two parallel chains 20 on each of the two sides.
  • the rear axle 14 can be designed as a steering axle.
  • Each chain 20 of the crawler chassis 13 has at least one front sprocket 20a and one rear sprocket 20b, at least the front sprocket 20a being connected to a travel drive, not shown.
  • a transmission gear, which is not shown, is preferably arranged between the travel drive (not shown) and the respective front sprocket 20a.
  • This travel drive can be connected to the drive motor of the crane superstructure 1 via a releasable kinematic connection, if this is present.
  • This traction drive is then not a drive motor, but rather a transmission which is connected to the drive motor of the crane superstructure 1.
  • each chain 20 can be coupled to its own travel drive.
  • the chains 20 can also be driven in different directions in order to allow the construction crane to be steered.
  • the rear axle 14 can of course then also not be steerable, that is to say it can be designed as a continuous rigid axle.
  • the further chassis is designed as a heavy-duty trolley 21, which can be pushed under the released (or otherwise raised) crane superstructure 1.
  • This heavy duty trolley has a plurality of axles 22 with wheels and on the top side at least four pivot-like fastening elements 23 which can be detachably connected to the fastening elements 11 on the crane superstructure 1 and together form a releasable container locking system, i.e. the releasable connection between the crane superstructure 1 and the container chassis 2 and between them Crane superstructure 1 and the heavy duty trolley 21 is also the same.
  • the crane superstructure 1 is then lowered by retracting the supports 9 onto the heavy duty trolley 21 and locked with it.
  • the crane superstructure 1 with the heavy duty trolley 21 can then be used with a suitable traction means, e.g. be moved into a hall or to another place that is difficult to access.
  • the further chassis can also be designed differently with or without its own travel drive or connected to the drive motor of the crane superstructure 1.
  • it can also have only one crawler chassis without an additional wheel axle.
