Definitions
- the invention relates to a lifting means according to the preamble of claim 1.
- a lifting means of this type is disclosed in JP-A-50118455 .
- the object of the invention is to provide an improved lifting means. Said object is achieved by the characterising features of claim 1.
- a further lifting means is known from US patent specification 4,447,085 .
- This known lifting device has a cylindrical housing which can be inserted into a conically tapering hole.
- the hooks which protrude outward with respect to the cylindrical housing, are initially pushed inward, and issue outward at the rear edge of the hole.
- this known lifting means has operating rods which can be operated by levers. As the cylindrical housing is inserted further into the hole, these levers also enter into contact with the cone, in such a way that the hooks tilt inward and the lifting means can be removed from the hole.
- This known lifting means has various drawbacks.
- the cylindrical housing has a relatively large diameter, as a result of which the lifting means is not suitable for use in objects wherein merely a small hole can be formed. Examples include the cutter heads of cutter suction dredgers, which articles do have a high weight, but on the other hand have fairly narrow, elongate arms wherein merely small holes can be formed.
- a further drawback is the fact that the ratio between the carrying capacity and the diameter of this known lifting means is fairly small. As a result, it is not readily possible to handle large loads using a relatively small lifting means.
- the term "large loads” refers to the loads which are for example in practice hoisted with the aid of hoisting chains and hoisting links. Furthermore, it is not readily possible to raise the hoisting loads in various hoisting directions. As a consequence of the conical shape of the hole wherein the known lifting means is mounted, the hoisting direction must be almost centered with respect to the axis of that hole and it may not deviate laterally or be directed obliquely.
- the rod assembly according to the invention necessitates a compact construction of the lifting means, wherein the carrying body can have fairly small cross-sectional dimensions.
- the lifting means according to the invention can be made to interact effectively with relatively small holes.
- the carrying body can have, owing to its compact construction, high strength and rigidity, and for example be embodied in a solid manner.
- the carrying body can be mounted in a fairly long hole having a constant cross section. As a result, bending moments can also be transmitted between the carrying body and the object, meaning that obliquely directed hoisting loads are also acceptable.
- the hook and the rod assembly can be interlocked in their outermost positions.
- the rod assembly to comprise a lock which is coupled to the operating rod at the end thereof which is remote from the coupling rod.
- the rod assembly can be interlocked in the outermost slid positions which the rod assembly assumes when the hook is in the active position or the inactive position respectively of the hook.
- said lock is operated manually.
- the lock can be embodied in various ways, for example in the form of a pin which can be inserted into lock holes which are located in the rod assembly and in various positions in the carrying body.
- the carrying body has a locking chamber wherein the lock can be received in two different outermost rotational positions for interlocking the rod assembly in the outermost sliding positions thereof.
- the lock can now be gripped by hand, and be rotated out of the locking chamber, after which the rod assembly can be slid. As soon as the rod assembly has reached the other desired outermost position, the lock can subsequently be rotated back inward into the locking chamber, in such a way that the desired interlocked position of the rod assembly is obtained.
- the carrying body is preferably embodied at least partly in a solid manner.
- the carrying body can have a channel wherein the operating rod is received.
- the operating rod fits snugly in that channel, it has with respect thereto a clearance such that the operating rod is able without much difficulty to slide in that channel in the longitudinal direction.
- the channel opens into said locking chamber.
- the lock is preferably connected to the operating rod by means of a hinge, which is directed transversely with respect to the channel, in such a way that in a first outermost rotational position of the lock, the operating rod assumes a first outermost sliding position and in a second outermost rotational position, rotated over substantially 180 degrees with respect to the first outermost rotational position, of the lock, the operating rod assumes a second outermost sliding position.
- the carrying body has preferably a fork-shaped end wherein the hook is received.
- the hook can be located in the inactive state wholly within the contour of at least the fork-shaped end, whereas it protrudes in the active state with respect to said contour.
- the lifting means can therefore be inserted into the hole in question of the object, wherein merely the transverse dimensions of the carrying body and the transverse dimensions of the hole have to be adapted to each other.
- the hook has a slot.
- the coupling rod can be received in these slots.
- the hook can be suspended from the fork-shaped end by means of a hinge pin; in that case, the coupling rod can be embodied in a curved manner in such a way that the hollow shape thereof is turned toward the hinge pin.
- the hook In connection with balanced engagement of the hook on both sides of the hole, the hook can have a circumferential contour which, viewed in a plane perpendicular to the hinge pin, is symmetrical with respect to a plane wherein the axis of the hinge pin is located. The loads are then exerted on the object by means of both ends, which protrude with respect to the carrying body, of the hook.
- the invention further relates to a combination of a lifting means as described hereinbefore, and also an object to be lifted, wherein the object has at least one through-hole having a cross-sectional contour which is constant over the entire length and corresponds to the cross-sectional contour of the carrying body, and of which the length is smaller than the length of the carrying body.
- This object can be a large number of different articles, such as for example the cutter head of a cutter suction dredger and the like.
- the lifting means 1 according to the invention shown in figures 1-9 has a carrying body 2 to which the tiltable hook 3 is fastened.
- a clasp to which a hoisting cable can be fastened, is received in the hole 4 of the carrying body.
- the lifting means 1 has the operating means which are denoted by reference numeral 5 and which can be used to transfer the hook 3 between the active hook position as shown in figure 1 , wherein the hook protrudes outside the contour of the carrying body 2, and the collapsed or inactive position which is represented in figure 3 and wherein the hook 3 is located within the contour of the carrying body 2.
- the operating means 5 consist of the lock 6, the operating rod 7 and the coupling rod 8.
- the lock 6 is connected to the operating rod 7 via a hinge 8
- the operating rod 7 is connected to the coupling rod 8 via a further hinge 9.
- this coupling rod 8 is connected to the hook 3 by means of, again, a hinge 10.
- the operating rod 7 is received in a channel 11 extending through the solid portion 12 of the carrying body 2. This means that the operating rod 7 can be displaced back and forth merely in its longitudinal direction.
- the hook 3 is rotatably suspended by means of the hinge pin 13 from the fork-shaped end 14 of the carrying body 2 which has two fork parts 15.
- the hook 3 has a solid portion 16 and also two cheeks 17 which form an entity connected thereto and mutually enclose a gap 18.
- the bottom end of the operating rod 7 reaches into the gap 18 between the cheeks 17 of the hook 3.
- the coupling rod 8, which is coupled to the hook 3 via a pin 19 which is secured in both cheeks 17, is also located in the gap 18.
- the operating rod 7 has a short transverse arm 20, onto the free end of which the lock 6 is coupled by means of hinges 21.
- This lock is located in the locking chamber 22 which is hollowed out in the solid portion 12 of the carrying body 2.
- the lifting means is operated as follows.
- the hook 3 is in the active position wherein the two ends thereof protrude outward with respect to the carrying body 2.
- the operating rod 7 is slid downward in the channel 11, in such a way that a rotation of the hook around the hinge pin 13 is brought about by means of the coupling rod 8.
- the further downward movement of the operating rod 7 is limited by the transverse arm 20 which abuts against the wall of the locking chamber 22.
- An embodiment wherein the lock 6 abuts against the wall of the locking chamber 22 is also possible.
- the upward movement of the operating rod 7 is prevented by the lock 6 which abuts against the opposing wall of the locking chamber 22.
- the lock 6 is first of all extended outward from the locking chamber 6. Subsequently, the operating rod 7 can be slid upward in the channel 11, wherein the coupling rod 8 can also move upward and the hook 3 can tilt around the hinge pin 13 in the process. Finally, the position shown in figure 3 is reached, in which position the sliding-downward of the operating rod 7, and thus the re-extending of the hook 3, is prevented by pressing the lock 6, which is now rotated over 180 degrees with respect to the previous position, into the locking chamber 6.
- FIG. 4 shows the combination of the lifting means according to the invention and an object 23 to be lifted.
- This object 23 to be lifted has 1 through-hole 24, on the back of which the hook 3 rests.
- the forces which are in this case exerted on the object 23 by the hook are indicated by arrows.

Description
- The invention relates to a lifting means according to the preamble of
claim 1. A lifting means of this type is disclosed inJP-A-50118455 - The object of the invention is to provide an improved lifting means. Said object is achieved by the characterising features of
claim 1. - A further lifting means is known from
US patent specification 4,447,085 . This known lifting device has a cylindrical housing which can be inserted into a conically tapering hole. The hooks, which protrude outward with respect to the cylindrical housing, are initially pushed inward, and issue outward at the rear edge of the hole. Furthermore, this known lifting means has operating rods which can be operated by levers. As the cylindrical housing is inserted further into the hole, these levers also enter into contact with the cone, in such a way that the hooks tilt inward and the lifting means can be removed from the hole. - This known lifting means has various drawbacks. First of all, there are no interlocking arrangements by means of which the hooks can be reliably kept in interaction with the object in question. Furthermore, the cylindrical housing has a relatively large diameter, as a result of which the lifting means is not suitable for use in objects wherein merely a small hole can be formed. Examples include the cutter heads of cutter suction dredgers, which articles do have a high weight, but on the other hand have fairly narrow, elongate arms wherein merely small holes can be formed.
- A further drawback is the fact that the ratio between the carrying capacity and the diameter of this known lifting means is fairly small. As a result, it is not readily possible to handle large loads using a relatively small lifting means. The term "large loads" refers to the loads which are for example in practice hoisted with the aid of hoisting chains and hoisting links. Furthermore, it is not readily possible to raise the hoisting loads in various hoisting directions. As a consequence of the conical shape of the hole wherein the known lifting means is mounted, the hoisting direction must be almost centered with respect to the axis of that hole and it may not deviate laterally or be directed obliquely.
- The rod assembly according to the invention necessitates a compact construction of the lifting means, wherein the carrying body can have fairly small cross-sectional dimensions. As a result, the lifting means according to the invention can be made to interact effectively with relatively small holes. Furthermore, the carrying body can have, owing to its compact construction, high strength and rigidity, and for example be embodied in a solid manner. The carrying body can be mounted in a fairly long hole having a constant cross section. As a result, bending moments can also be transmitted between the carrying body and the object, meaning that obliquely directed hoisting loads are also acceptable.
- The hook and the rod assembly can be interlocked in their outermost positions. For this purpose, provision is made for the rod assembly to comprise a lock which is coupled to the operating rod at the end thereof which is remote from the coupling rod. By means of said lock, the rod assembly can be interlocked in the outermost slid positions which the rod assembly assumes when the hook is in the active position or the inactive position respectively of the hook. Preferably, said lock is operated manually.
- The lock can be embodied in various ways, for example in the form of a pin which can be inserted into lock holes which are located in the rod assembly and in various positions in the carrying body. In connection with manual operation and a non-detachable embodiment of the lock, preference is given to an embodiment wherein the lock is rotatably connected to the operating rod. In addition, the carrying body has a locking chamber wherein the lock can be received in two different outermost rotational positions for interlocking the rod assembly in the outermost sliding positions thereof.
- The lock can now be gripped by hand, and be rotated out of the locking chamber, after which the rod assembly can be slid. As soon as the rod assembly has reached the other desired outermost position, the lock can subsequently be rotated back inward into the locking chamber, in such a way that the desired interlocked position of the rod assembly is obtained.
- As stated hereinbefore, the carrying body is preferably embodied at least partly in a solid manner. In that case, the carrying body can have a channel wherein the operating rod is received. Although the operating rod fits snugly in that channel, it has with respect thereto a clearance such that the operating rod is able without much difficulty to slide in that channel in the longitudinal direction.
- Preferably, the channel opens into said locking chamber. The lock is preferably connected to the operating rod by means of a hinge, which is directed transversely with respect to the channel, in such a way that in a first outermost rotational position of the lock, the operating rod assumes a first outermost sliding position and in a second outermost rotational position, rotated over substantially 180 degrees with respect to the first outermost rotational position, of the lock, the operating rod assumes a second outermost sliding position.
- The carrying body has preferably a fork-shaped end wherein the hook is received. In that case, the hook can be located in the inactive state wholly within the contour of at least the fork-shaped end, whereas it protrudes in the active state with respect to said contour. In the inactive state, the lifting means can therefore be inserted into the hole in question of the object, wherein merely the transverse dimensions of the carrying body and the transverse dimensions of the hole have to be adapted to each other.
- Preferably, the hook has a slot. The coupling rod can be received in these slots. The hook can be suspended from the fork-shaped end by means of a hinge pin; in that case, the coupling rod can be embodied in a curved manner in such a way that the hollow shape thereof is turned toward the hinge pin. In connection with balanced engagement of the hook on both sides of the hole, the hook can have a circumferential contour which, viewed in a plane perpendicular to the hinge pin, is symmetrical with respect to a plane wherein the axis of the hinge pin is located. The loads are then exerted on the object by means of both ends, which protrude with respect to the carrying body, of the hook.
- The invention further relates to a combination of a lifting means as described hereinbefore, and also an object to be lifted, wherein the object has at least one through-hole having a cross-sectional contour which is constant over the entire length and corresponds to the cross-sectional contour of the carrying body, and of which the length is smaller than the length of the carrying body. This object can be a large number of different articles, such as for example the cutter head of a cutter suction dredger and the like.
- The invention will be described hereinafter in greater detail based on an exemplary embodiment illustrated in the figures, in which:
-
figure 1 is a longitudinal section through a lifting means according to the invention, in a first position; -
figure 2 is a front view of the lifting means; -
figure 3 is a transverse view of the lifting means in a second position; -
figure 4 shows a first exemplary application of the lifting means; -
figure 5 shows a second exemplary application; -
figures 6-8 are perspective views of the lifting means; and -
figure 9 is a perspective view, partly in cross section, of the lifting means. - The lifting means 1 according to the invention shown in
figures 1-9 has a carryingbody 2 to which thetiltable hook 3 is fastened. A clasp, to which a hoisting cable can be fastened, is received in thehole 4 of the carrying body. Furthermore, the lifting means 1 has the operating means which are denoted byreference numeral 5 and which can be used to transfer thehook 3 between the active hook position as shown infigure 1 , wherein the hook protrudes outside the contour of thecarrying body 2, and the collapsed or inactive position which is represented infigure 3 and wherein thehook 3 is located within the contour of thecarrying body 2. - The operating means 5 consist of the
lock 6, theoperating rod 7 and thecoupling rod 8. Thelock 6 is connected to theoperating rod 7 via ahinge 8, and theoperating rod 7 is connected to thecoupling rod 8 via afurther hinge 9. Finally, thiscoupling rod 8 is connected to thehook 3 by means of, again, ahinge 10. Theoperating rod 7 is received in achannel 11 extending through thesolid portion 12 of thecarrying body 2. This means that theoperating rod 7 can be displaced back and forth merely in its longitudinal direction. - The
hook 3 is rotatably suspended by means of thehinge pin 13 from the fork-shaped end 14 of the carryingbody 2 which has twofork parts 15. Thehook 3 has asolid portion 16 and also twocheeks 17 which form an entity connected thereto and mutually enclose agap 18. The bottom end of the operatingrod 7 reaches into thegap 18 between thecheeks 17 of thehook 3. Thecoupling rod 8, which is coupled to thehook 3 via apin 19 which is secured in bothcheeks 17, is also located in thegap 18. - At the top end, the operating
rod 7 has a shorttransverse arm 20, onto the free end of which thelock 6 is coupled by means of hinges 21. This lock is located in the lockingchamber 22 which is hollowed out in thesolid portion 12 of the carryingbody 2. - During operation, the lifting means is operated as follows. In the state shown in
figures 1 and 2 , thehook 3 is in the active position wherein the two ends thereof protrude outward with respect to the carryingbody 2. In this position, the operatingrod 7 is slid downward in thechannel 11, in such a way that a rotation of the hook around thehinge pin 13 is brought about by means of thecoupling rod 8. The further downward movement of the operatingrod 7 is limited by thetransverse arm 20 which abuts against the wall of the lockingchamber 22. An embodiment wherein thelock 6 abuts against the wall of the lockingchamber 22 is also possible. The upward movement of the operatingrod 7 is prevented by thelock 6 which abuts against the opposing wall of the lockingchamber 22. - During the transferring of the
hook 3 to the collapsed position as shown infigure 3 , thelock 6 is first of all extended outward from the lockingchamber 6. Subsequently, the operatingrod 7 can be slid upward in thechannel 11, wherein thecoupling rod 8 can also move upward and thehook 3 can tilt around thehinge pin 13 in the process. Finally, the position shown infigure 3 is reached, in which position the sliding-downward of the operatingrod 7, and thus the re-extending of thehook 3, is prevented by pressing thelock 6, which is now rotated over 180 degrees with respect to the previous position, into the lockingchamber 6. -
Figure 4 shows the combination of the lifting means according to the invention and anobject 23 to be lifted. Thisobject 23 to be lifted has 1 through-hole 24, on the back of which thehook 3 rests. The forces which are in this case exerted on theobject 23 by the hook are indicated by arrows. A hoistingeye 25, on which hoisting forces can be exerted which are directed obliquely with respect to the longitudinal dimension of the carryingbody 2 of the lifting means 1, is coupled to theeye 4. These oblique hoisting forces can be accommodated as a result of the occurrence of the indicated reaction moments between the carryingbody 2 and the wall of thehole 24 in theobject 3. - The example of
figure 5 shows that the lifting means 1 is coupled to thecutter head 26, in such a way that the cutter head can be raised by the hoistingcable 27. -
Figure 6 is a perspective view of the collapsed or inactive state of thehook 3, thelock 6 being collapsed in such a way that it prevents the extending of thehook 3. Infigure 7 , thelock 6 is extended, in such a way that the operatingrod 7 and thecoupling rod 8 can be slid in thechannel 11 in thesolid portion 2 of the carryingbody 2, as a result of which thehook 3 tilts outward. The partial sectional view infigure 9 shows that thelock 6 is engaged in the lockingchamber 22, in such a way that the protruded position of thehook 3 can be maintained. - As shown in
figure 1 , thehook 3 has a substantially symmetrical shape with respect to thehinge pin 13. In particular, the hook has a roughly rectangular contour, two ends of which are beveled. -
