Abstract: A mobile crane comprising a moveable undercarriage, an upper carriage mounted on the undercarriage so as to rotate about a vertical upper carriage axis of rotation and having a ballasting device, and a counterweight device that can be coupled to the ballasting device and comprises a counterweight base plate and at least one connecting element extending from the counterweight base plate for lifting and coupling the counterweight device to the ballasting device. The first arm in the ballasted state is connected to the counterweight base plate via a pivotable coupling element, which is pivotably mounted relative to the first arm and the counterweight base plate in such a way that the counterweight base plate can be adjusted in a linear movement radially to the upper carriage axis of rotation by simultaneously pivoting the first arm and the coupling element.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a mobile crane comprising a mobile undercarriage, an upper carriage rotatably mounted on the undercarriage, and a counterweight device which can be coupled to the upper carriage and which comprises a counterweight base plate and at least one connection element extending substantially perpendicularly to the counterweight base plate and connected thereto for lifting and coupling the counterweight device to the upper carriage. The counterweight device may comprise a carrier plate connectable to the connection element above the counterweight base plate, wherein at least one pivot beam is mounted on the carrier plate so as to be pivotable about a vertical axis, on which first counterweight elements are stackable. The disclosure further relates to a counterweight device for a mobile crane according to the disclosure and to a method for mounting the counterweight device on the upper carriage of a mobile crane according to the disclosure.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a ballast device for fastening to a crane having first and second ballast elements. The first ballast element has first connection means for a releasable fastening to the crane, while both ballast elements are releasably connected to one another via second connection means. According to the disclosure, the first ballast element comprises an assembly device having abutment elements to which an abutment means can be attached to raise the ballast device. The abutment elements are arranged or are positionable such that the abutment means can be selectively attached to the assembly device for raising only the first ballast element above its center of gravity or for commonly raising both ballast elements above their total center of gravity. The disclosure further relates to a mobile crane having at least one such ballast device.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a mobile crane that comprises a travelable undercarriage, a superstructure rotatably supported on the undercarriage, and a counterweight device couplable to the superstructure. The counterweight device comprises a counterweight base plate and at least one connection means for raising the counterweight device and for coupling it to the superstructure. The disclosure furthermore relates to a counterweight device for a mobile crane in accordance with the disclosure.
