Abstract: A crane with at least one main carrier which is moveable and a crane trolley which is mounted on the at least one main carrier for movement, a winch carrier being fastened to the crane trolley, and a load suspension apparatus which is moveable up and down in the vertical direction by cables hanging on the winch carrier, the load suspension apparatus having gripping tools for releasably gripping a load. The crane has at least one camera and at least one control stand for a crane driver, and the control stand has at least one screen. At least one assistance graphic can be superimposed on the at least one screen onto the display of the image recorded instantaneously by the camera, as an aid for the crane driver for orienting the load suspension apparatus and/or the gripping tool of the load suspension apparatus relative to the load to be gripped.

Abstract: Non-driven transfer pulling means of a conveying device for conveying hanging objects, wherein at least one z-shaped adapter bracket having at least one entrainer prong is fastened to the transfer pulling means, wherein the entrainer prong is arranged in a substantially parallel offset manner with respect to a main body of the adapter bracket and extends substantially in parallel with a main transverse extension direction of the transfer pulling means and, owing to its positioning and shape, is suitable to engage with a head part of a holding adapter supported the conveying device and used for holding objects to be conveyed, in order to permit onwards conveyance of the holding adapter.

Abstract: A method of compacting soil via a base machine, the base machine having ram material provided at at least one cable and having a regulation/control apparatus, includes raising the ram material from the land area to be compacted, with a zero point being stored at which no slackline is present. The method further includes raising the ram material to a lift height, carrying out a compaction procedure by dropping the ram material from a drop height onto the land area to be compacted, again raising the ram material from the land area to be compacted, with a further zero point being stored at which no slackline is present, determining and storing a compaction progress, and repeating the previous steps until the compaction progresses of each of a predefined number of consecutive compaction procedures are smaller than or equal to a predefined minimum progress.
