  • Apparatus and method improving safety in the operation of a crane
    Patent number: 6838996
    Abstract: The invention is an apparatus and method for improved safety in operation of a crane relative to the transit of a load overhead of workmen. A initiating operator transmits a RF signal to sound a first horn alarm when a lift commences. The initiating operator transmits a second RF signal, when the transit of the load commences, to sound a second horn alarm which operates asynchronously relative to the first horn alarm. A terminating operator disengages the horn alarms when the load is placed. Workmen will hear a Doppler effect as indicative of the direction of travel and position of the load.
