  By the way, even in a general crane as well as a crane having the above-described combined configuration, when a suspended load is lifted by a boom, a pivot axial force A is applied to a swing frame 103 from a boom connecting portion 105 as shown in FIG. Acts on the rear lower direction of the swivel frame 103, while the tension (the force for pulling the boom 104 from the rear) B from the guy line fixing unit 106 at the rear part of the swivel frame 103 is applied to the front of the swivel frame 103. Acts in the direction. Due to the horizontal components A1 and B1 of the boom axial force A and the cable tension B, the swing frame 103 is subjected to a compressive load from the front-rear direction, whereby the swing frame 103 is entirely in the front-rear direction (longitudinal direction). Curve (shown with a broken line). In particular, when the suspended load is lifted from the ground, the horizontal components A1 and B1 of the boom axial force and the cable tension are remarkably increased, which may cause the left and right side plates 111 of the revolving frame 103 to buckle.

This moment F has a drawback that local buckling (indicated by a one-dot chain line in FIG. 11) occurs at an early stage such that the side plate 111a goes outward in the thickness direction (width direction D).

  Therefore, as a means for preventing the occurrence of buckling toward the outside in the thickness direction of the side plate, increasing the plate thickness of the side plate or providing a reinforcing rib on the side plate is performed.

  However, since such a means mainly reinforces the side plate itself, in order to prevent the occurrence of buckling toward the outside in the thickness direction of the side plate, the thickness of the side plate is remarkably increased. Or a large number of reinforcing ribs need to be installed, which increases the cost and is not efficient.

  (1) Even if the input position of the boom axial force in the left and right boom connecting portions 10 and 11 is offset inward from the side plates 2 and 3, the side plate reinforcing portion 20 is provided on the rear side of the boom connecting portions 10 and 11. 30 is provided, and the boom axial force A as a load input from each of the boom connecting portions 10 and 11 is transmitted to the bottom plate 6 by the reinforcing vertical plates 21 and 31 as shown in FIGS. It can be transmitted to the bearing 35. That is, the boom axial force A can be distributed to the side plates 2 and 3 and the reinforcing vertical plates 21 and 31 spaced inward from the side plates 2 and 3. As a result, the magnitude of the moment (F shown in FIG. 11) acting on the side plates 2 and 3 of the swivel frame 1 that causes out-of-plane bending can be reduced, and the side plates 2 and 3 are seated toward the outside in the thickness direction. It is possible to efficiently prevent the occurrence of bending.

  (2) Since the reinforcing vertical plates 21 and 31 are provided so as to cross over the swing bearing 35, the boom axial force A is transmitted to the high-strength swing bearing 35 by the reinforcing vertical plates 21 and 31. This makes it possible to further reduce the magnitude of the moment.

  (3) Since the reinforcing top plates 22 and 32 are provided in addition to the reinforcing vertical plates 21 and 31, the boom axial force A is supplied to the reinforcing vertical plates 21 and 31 via the reinforcing top plates 22 and 32.

This effect is further increased by the configuration having the rear reinforcing body 13.

  (4) Since the rear side reinforcement body 13 is connected to the both side plates 2 and 3, the rigidity of the vicinity of the rear side reinforcement body 13 in the revolving frame 1 can be improved.

  (5) Since the rear reinforcing body 13 is disposed on the bottom plate 6 so as to pass above the swivel bearing 35, the axial force A from the boom acting on the boom connecting portions 10 and 11 is supplied to the reinforcing vertical plate. The rear reinforcement 13 connected to 21 and 31 can be transmitted to the high-strength slewing bearing 35 intensively, and this also causes the magnitude of the moment acting on the side plates 2 and 3 to cause out-of-plane bending. Can be further reduced.

  (6) Since the rear side reinforcing body 13 forms a closed cross section, the strength of the rear side reinforcing body 13 is remarkably increased, and the rear side reinforcing body 13, the side plates 2, 3 and the reinforcing vertical plates 21, 31 are The connected state can be strengthened, and this also makes it possible to further reduce the magnitude of the moment acting on the side plate and causing out-of-plane bending.

Therefore, the increase in weight can be suppressed and transmission of the axial force A to the bottom plate 6 can be achieved at the same level as compared with the case where the reinforcing vertical plate is formed with a constant height. .

  Next, weight reduction and buckling evaluation in the turning frame of this embodiment will be described.

  In the swivel frame of this embodiment, the weight of the swivel frame can be reduced as compared with the case where reinforcing ribs are provided on the side plate as in the prior art, and the peak portion where the side plate undergoes buckling deformation outward in the plate thickness direction (the buckling deformation is not When the buckling evaluation is performed with the stress value of the maximum portion), the stress value can be reduced.

There is no configuration, and the side plate reinforcing portion 30 has a closed cross-sectional configuration in which the side plate 3, the reinforcing vertical plate 31, the reinforcing top plate 32, the connecting piece 11 c, the rear reinforcing body 13, and the bottom plate 6 are enclosed in a sealed manner. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, even when the reinforcing vertical plates 21 and 31 are provided so as to be connected to the opposing plates 10a and 11a in at least the boom connecting portions 10 and 11, the boom axial force is caused by the reinforcing vertical plates 21 and 31. Can be transmitted to the bottom plate 6. Thereby, the magnitude of the moment acting on the side plates 2 and 3 of the swivel frame 1 that causes out-of-plane bending can be reduced, and the occurrence of buckling of the side plates 2 and 3 toward the outside in the thickness direction can be efficiently prevented. It becomes possible. By forming at least one or more of the reinforcing top plates 22, 32, the connecting pieces 10c, 11c, and the rear reinforcing body 13 to the reinforcing vertical plates 21, 31, a seat It becomes possible to prevent the occurrence of bending more efficiently.

  Moreover, when the boom connection parts 10 and 11 are the structures which have the connection pieces 10c and 11c, of course, these connection pieces 10c and 11c can be used as a reinforcing front plate.

  Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, the present invention is applied to the revolving frame in which the rear reinforcing body 13 is disposed.
