Definitions
- the present invention relates to a transportable crane whose folding and deployment can be carried out quickly in a fully automatic manner. It relates more particularly, although not exclusively, to a crane whose boom, itself collapsible, has in the deployed position, a relatively large overall length.
- the problem of the folding crane is twofold.
- the overall dimensions of the crane should be compatible with the size limits fixed by the Highway Code, which allows rapid transport in ordinary road traffic.
- the crane once deployed in the working position on the site, the crane must have a mast as high as possible and a boom with maximum reach.
- the folding and deployment operations must be as simple as possible and take place quickly.
- a first approached solution to this problem is known, for example from French patent 2,548,646.
- This known system provides for a mast in two parts (mast foot and mast head) on which is articulated an arrow, also in two parts (arrowhead and arrowhead).
- a single cylinder allows the deployment and folding of the assembly to be controlled, thanks to an articulated rear link and a rear cable extended by a stay cable.
- the circulation of this rear cable is guided by a system of pulleys and articulated punches which are located in the area where the jib foot is articulated on the top of the mast head.
- This known device however has the drawback of considerably limiting the maximum length that can be used for the element forming the arrowhead. Indeed, during the deployment maneuver, the arrowhead moves away from the arrowhead against the underside of which it was folded, and this as the arrowhead in turn lifts up. above the masthead on the top of which it is articulated. Thus, from the start of the deployment operation, the end of the arrowhead moves along the masthead, in the immediate vicinity thereof that it sweeps in the longitudinal direction.
- the object of the present invention is to avoid these drawbacks by producing a folding crane of the aforementioned type, the element of which forms the arrowhead has a useful length substantially equal to that of the element which forms the boom foot.
- the invention aims to produce such a foldable crane whose deployment is carried out fully automatically in a very short time and with a small footprint.
- a folding crane comprises a lifting mast on the top of which is articulated a jib foot, the end of which carries the articulation axis of an arrow point, while a cable system makes it possible to control the deployment of the boom and mast, and it is characterized in that, moreover, there is provided between the arrowhead and the mast, a cable of constant length, fitted between two sets of pulleys whose variable spacing is positively controlled by means successively causing its increase then its decrease throughout the deployment maneuver or the folding maneuver, which has the effect of delaying the speed of opening of the angle of the jib foot / arrowhead at the start of deployment of the crane, whereas on the contrary, at the end of deployment, when the jib foot has already moved away from the mast, the speed of unfolding of the jib tip until it is aligned with the jib foot, is increased.
- the first set of pulleys for hauling is located at the rear of the articulation of the jib foot on the top of the mast.
- the second set of pulleys of hauling is arranged transversely to slide in a substantially longitudinal slide, integral with the head of the mast.
- the means for controlling the sliding of the second train of pulleys in the slide comprise, on the one hand a pusher articulated on the transverse axis of the second train of pulleys to which it is perpendicular, while its other end is articulated on the head of a connecting rod whose head is on the other hand integral the arrow foot with which it pivots on the top of the mast, so that there is materialized a mechanism with three axes of articulation parallel to each other, this mechanism deforming on either side of a neutral position for which the three axes are aligned, namely: - the axis by which the pusher is articulated on the second set of pulleys of hauling; - the axis by which the connecting rod head is articulated on the pusher; - the axis by which the connecting rod foot and the boom foot are articulated on the top of the mast.
- the mast and the boom rise in a small footprint.
- the variable reeving device controlled by the articulation of the boom foot, makes it possible during the first phase of lifting the boom, to prevent the opening of the point by cable compensation.
- this allows the opening of the arrowhead on the boom foot when the angle of the mast and the boom foot reaches then exceeds a value of about 45 degrees. Therefore, the unfolding is carried out quickly without the arrowhead coming up against the mast.
- This compensation and variability hauling system makes it possible to automate the unfolding, and above all to fold a maximum length for transport in a minimum road gauge.
- the crane illustrated in the drawings comprises a base 1, on which is articulated, at 2, a mast foot element 3.
- the top of the latter carries, at the rear, an axis 4, on which the base of a mast head element 5 is articulated.
- the top of the latter carries an axis 6, on which a rigid bridge 7 is articulated, integral with the rear end 8 of a jib foot element 9.
- the jib foot 10 carries a lower link 11, where the rear of an arrowhead element 12 is articulated.
- a constant length cable 13 is provided between the arrowhead 12 and the mast 3, 5 which it connects. This cable 13 is mouflaged between two pulley trains 14 and 15, the spacing 16 ( Figure 6) is variable.
- the first set of pulleys 14 has its axis 17 located behind the articulation 6. It is carried by the rigid bridge 7 which rocks around the axis 6.
- the second train of pulleys 15 has its axis 18 which is arranged transversely in a substantially longitudinal slide 19, integral with the mast head 5.
- a pusher 20 On the transverse axis 18, is articulated one end of a pusher 20 which is perpendicular thereto.
- the other end of the pusher 20 is articulated at 21 on the head of a connecting rod 22, the foot of which pivots about 1 ′ axis 6, at the same time as the bridge 7, of which this connecting rod 22 is rigidly secured.
- the cable 13 passes over a pulley 23, carried by the rear 8 of the jib foot 9, then over a pulley 24, carried by the lower chord of the jib foot 9 before the axis 11, to finally anchor at 25, on the arrowhead 12.
- this device makes it possible to give the jib tip element 12, a length 37 which may be greater than 85% of the length 38 of the jib foot 9.
- the opening of the angle 39 between the jib foot 9 and the jib tip 12 is delayed at the start of deployment of the crane ( Figures 3 and 4), on the contrary to be accelerated at the end ( Figures 7 and 8).
