Abstract: The invention relates to a brake assembly (1) for securing a conveyor device, in particular a crane system (100), comprising a first brake device (7) which acts on a first drive element (3), a second brake device (8) which acts on a second drive element (5), a transmission device (4), in particular a gearbox, acting between the first and second drive element, a load sensor (13, 13?) which detects a load signal and passes same on to a controller (9), and the controller (9) is designed in such a way that, based on a load signal that exceeds an overload threshold, it initiates an emergency brake status and actuates the first and the second brake device (7, 8) in such a way that they act on the first and second drive element (3, 5) simultaneously within a first brake acting time, wherein one of the first and second brake devices is designed such that it acts on the first and/or the second drive element within a second brake acting time in a normal brake status, and the first brake acting time is shorter than the

Abstract: A stop arrangement having a first brake lever arrangement and a second brake lever arrangement, which together form a brake lever pair of a brake caliper arrangement and which, at the first end thereof, are respectively articulated on a support and, at the second end thereof, are coupled to one another by means of a positioning arrangement, wherein a first stop element is arranged in each case between the ends of the first brake lever arrangement and a second stop element is arranged between the ends of the second brake lever arrangement, and first and second stop elements are formed and mesh in such a way that they allow operating movements in opposite direction towards and away from one another between a brake position and a releasing position of the brake lever arrangements and inhibit an aligned tilting movement of the brake lever arrangements in a tilting direction (M), such that the brake lever arrangements are retained in the releasing position against a tilting action in a centering position within a

Abstract: The invention relates to an electrohydraulic brake release device (1) comprising an actuating cylinder arrangement (400), a tank module (300) for receiving a hydraulic medium, an electric drive unit (200) and a functional unit (100) having a pump assembly (113). The pump assembly (113) is arranged in a recess (111) provided in the functional unit (100), which recess is in communication with the tank module (300), is functionally connected to the actuating cylinder arrangement (400) by way of a conduit arrangement (150, 160, 170, 171, 172, 180, 190) and by way of a bearing carrier cover (115) is sealed off from a dry-running drive motor (210, 211) of the electric drive unit (200). The invention further relates to a brake system comprising a brake release device of this kind.

Abstract: The invention relates to a functional unit (100) for a brake release device, comprising a recess (111) for receiving a pump assembly (113), an actuating cylinder support (119) for receiving an actuating cylinder arrangement (400), wherein the functional unit (100) is formed as an integral functional block where the actuating cylinder support (119), the recess (111) and a plurality of channels (150, 160, 170, 171, 172, 180, 190) for a hydraulic medium are developed, said channels forming a line arrangement. The invention also relates to a brake release device having such a functional unit.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a coupling apparatus for the pivoted coupling of a vehicle having two vehicle sections, with coupling elements which are arranged to pivot towards each other, and which can be permanently coupled to a vehicle section. A brake arrangement operates between the coupling elements and forms an adjustable frictional grip between the coupling elements, which blocks the ability of the vehicle sections to pivot toward each other. In addition, the brake apparatus includes a hydraulic cylinder unit which operates on multiple radially acting brake elements.

Abstract: A control and regulation arrangement for protection of a conveyor or other hoisting or crane device that assures a safe reaction to overloading. A brake apparatus is provided that acts on the conveyor under control of an overload sensor. If the load approaches a predetermined threshold, a signal is emitted from the overload sensor and transmitted to a speed sensor that limits the conveyor speed. Simultaneously the control transmits a signal to the brake apparatus to actuate and stop the conveyor. Upon receipt of a subsequent signal that a load relief state is to be established, the control brakes the conveyor in accord with the speed signal such that the object in transport moves toward a safe position at a constant speed. A conveyor with multiple hoisting devices may include duplicate control and regulation arrangements for each hoisting device.
