  • Publication number: 20250033936
    Abstract: A mounting framework of a vehicle crane in which at least one bracing arm of a bracing apparatus of the vehicle crane can be temporarily stored on the mounting framework, where the mounting framework comprises at least one displaceable sliding frame and a single bracing arm can be temporarily stored on the sliding frame. In order to provide a mounting framework of a vehicle crane with an optimized placing option for a bracing apparatus on the lower carriage, the mounting framework comprises one displaceable sliding frame. A vehicle crane is configured with such a mounting framework and embodiments include a method for mounting a bracing apparatus on a telescoping jib of a vehicle crane comprising such a mounting framework.

The mounting framework comprises at least one displaceable sliding frame and a single bracing arm can be temporarily stored on the sliding frame. The mounting framework is arranged in extension of a lower carriage of the vehicle crane and completely behind the lower carriage and is fastened to the lower carriage to provide a vehicle crane with an optimized temporary storage option for the bracing apparatus on the lower carriage. Also provided is a method for mounting a bracing apparatus on a telescoping jib of a vehicle crane.

  • Patent number: 12151918
    Abstract: A vehicle crane having a telescoping jib, comprising a basic box with retractable and extendible inner boxes and a securing and locking unit that comprises a first adjusting cylinder and a second adjusting cylinder which are each designed as unilaterally acting hydraulic cylinders with a first spring element and a second spring element as well as a first line and a second line, where the first adjusting cylinder moves locking bolts between operating states of unbolted and bolted and the second adjusting cylinder moves driving bolts between operating states of secured and released. In the event of a malfunction, the first adjusting cylinder moves to the bolted operating state and the second adjusting cylinder moves to the released operating state.

  • Patent number: 11760612
    Abstract: A telescoping jib system of a mobile crane having a basic telescoping jib and an additional telescoping jib that can be retracted and extended via a telescoping cylinder with a securing and locking unit. In order to improve the telescoping jib system, it is proposed that a securing unit is arranged on a tip of the telescoping cylinder, the securing unit comprises exclusively at least one driving bolt, via which an additional telescoping jib separate from the basic telescoping jib can be retracted into the basic telescoping jib. The invention also relates to a method for lengthening a basic telescoping jib of a mobile crane by means of an additional telescoping jib to form a telescoping jib system.

  • Patent number: 10647553
    Abstract: A mobile crane having a main jib that is mounted thereupon for luffing and that can be oriented by means of a luffing cylinder, and a main jib extension which is detachably connected to a main jib head of the main jib by upper and lower bolts, it being possible to angle the main jib extension about a luffing axis relative to the main jib proceeding from a base position following release of the upper or lower bolts and using an angle drive, the angle drive engaging with a foot of the main jib extension, a maximum angling angle being delimited by an adjustable angling plate, and the angling plate engaging with the foot of the main jib extension and the main jib head. The angle drive is a component of an angling plate in the form of a combi-angling plate.
