Abstract: A crane includes an under carriage, an upper carriage, a rotary connection, by means of which the upper carriage is connected with the under carriage to rotate around an axis of rotation, a jib to be connected with the crane and erected around a jib axis, and a device connecting the upper carriage with the under carriage with at least one force-transmitting element. The at least one force-transmitting element is designed passively in such a way that it transmits forces between the upper carriage and the under carriage when a pre-determined load condition of the rotary connection is reached.

Abstract: An undercarriage for a vehicle crane includes multiple supports that are pivotably articulated on the chassis between a working arrangement and a transport arrangement, and includes a rotary joint component for the rotatable connection of a superstructure to the undercarriage, with the rotary joint component determining a transport height of the undercarriage, which completely uses a maximum admissible transport height.

Abstract: A rotary connection for a work machine, such as a crane, includes a rotational axis, an inner bearing ring, an outer bearing ring and at least three bearing body ring arrangements arranged between the bearing rings with a plurality of respective bearing bodies. At least one of the bearing body ring arrangements is configured to at least partially withstand forces directed in the radial direction to the rotational axis. At least two of the bearing body ring arrangements are configured to at least partially withstand forces directed parallel to the rotational axis and are arranged adjacent to and spaced apart from one another along the rotational axis. The at least two bearing body ring arrangements are configured to at least partially withstand forces directed parallel to the rotational axis in each case establish a direction of action and are arranged spaced apart from one another along the direction of action.
