Abstract: A crane counterweight block alignment detection and control method, a crane counterweight block alignment detection and control device, and a crane. The crane counterweight block alignment detection and control method comprise: a counterweight block being provided with mounting holes for matching with positioning pins on a crane, detecting the center position of the counterweight block, and calculating the relative offset between the center position and the position of the positioning pins; detecting the relative positions of the mounting holes in the counterweight block and the positioning pins, and calculating, according to the positions, a relative rotation angle of the counterweight block for aligning the mounting holes with the positioning pins; and controlling, according to the relative offset and relative rotation angle, the movement of the counterweight block to enable the mounting holes in the counterweight block to be aligned with and installed onto the positioning pins.

Abstract: A single-cylinder pin-type telescopic boom track optimized control method and control system thereof are applied to switch between any two working conditions of any sections of a telescopic boom. The method and system establish a constrained condition according to the stroke of a telescopic oil cylinder. When the telescopic boom is changed from the current state A to the target state B, the most rapid and convenient telescopic path can be obtained based on the current position of the pin mechanism and other conditions. The method and system greatly improve the telescopic reliability and work efficiency of the single-cylinder pin-type telescopic boom, and are applied to the telescopic boom of any engineering machine, in particular to the telescopic boom of a heavy duty crane.
