Abstract: The disclosure relates to a dismantlable lattice piece for a crane boom. The lattice piece comprising two corner bar sides that are each formed by at least two corner bars that are fixedly welded to one another by a plurality of connection bars and comprising a transverse connection gibbable with the corner bar plates.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a crane, in particular a lattice boom mobile crane, which comprises an upper carriage rotatable about a vertical axis of rotation and a floating ballast connected to the upper carriage via a floating ballast guide. The floating ballast guide comprises a drive for changing the distance of the floating ballast from the axis of rotation of the upper carriage. According to the disclosure, the floating ballast guide is connected to the upper carriage via at least one force transmission member. The force transmission member is configured to partially unload the floating ballast guide by an unloading force counteracting the weight force of the floating ballast, and to thereby introduce a corresponding counterforce into the upper carriage.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a crane comprising a main boom and a rearwardly directed derrick boom for bracing the main boom, wherein a suspended ballast is directly or indirectly attached to the derrick head via connecting means, wherein at least one luffable, rearwardly aligned ballast adjusting boom is provided, which acts on the connecting means and influences the suspended ballast radius by its luffing angle.

Abstract: The invention relates to a foldable suspended-ballast guide for a crane with suspended ballast, comprising at least two lattice pieces which are pivotally connected to each other by means of at least one swivel joint, and a swivel drive for changing the swivel angle or for changing the ballast radius, wherein the suspended-ballast guide can be arranged on the crane via the first lattice piece, characterized in that the second lattice piece comprises at least one kink joint in order to kink the second lattice piece downwards or backwards in the direction of the crane to reduce the ballast radius.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the assisted performance of crane movements by a crane with at least two boom elements that are movable relative to one another, whereby an auxiliary control module, after activation by the user, determines at least one target position of the boom system, determines the crane movements necessary for achieving the target position and, after active user confirmation, indirectly or directly activates the specific crane actuators for the performance of the crane movements determined by means of the crane control.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an apparatus for stabilizing a crane, in particular a crawler crane, in an anchorage position, having at least one load coupled to a first boom of the crane to compensate a first torque introduced into the crane due to wind and having at least two additional supports arranged opposite one another to compensate a second torque introduced into the crane due to wind. The disclosure is furthermore directed to a corresponding additional support and to a crane having a corresponding apparatus.
