A hydraulic pin puller is installed on the second single-section boom. A sixth pin shaft is installed at the end of the hydraulic pin puller, and the sixth pin shaft is used to connect the first single-section boom and the second single-section boom. The sixth pin shaft is installed on the first single-section boom and the second single-section boom through a second locking pin. The second locking pin is installed on the sixth pin shaft through a fourth split pin. The first single-section boom and the second single-section boom are installed and fixed together through a fourth bolt assembly.

[0007] A further setting of the present invention is that a guardrail is installed on the platform.

[0008] A further setting of the present invention is that the hoisting pulley frame includes a main body, a snap ring, a locking bolt, a clamping plate, a pulley, a bearing, a first pin shaft and a spacer sleeve. The main body is installed on the boom through a third bolt assembly. The first pin shaft is inserted into the main body.

[0025] The present invention provides a combined boom for a tower crane. First, the components of a single-section boom are assembled. The ladder 1 and the platform 2 are fixed on the boom 3 with the first bolt assembly 4. The ladder 1 and the platform 2 are mainly used for the installation of the upper chord pin shaft of the combined boom. The guardrail 2-1 is installed on the platform 2 to provide safety protection. The boom length plate 6 is installed on the right upper chord of the boom 3 through the second bolt assembly 5 to facilitate the driver and the ground commander to know the hook amplitude in real time. The hoisting pulley bracket 7 is installed on the upper chord horizontal web member of the boom 3 and is locked by the third bolt assembly 8. The second pin shaft 9 for installing the boom is placed inside the upper chord channel steel of the boom and locked with the first pin shaft 10 and the first split pin 11. The positioning pin 12 is also installed in the pin hole at the end face of the boom 3 to ensure smooth operation of the luffing trolley for the lower chord connection positioning. At this time, the assembly of a single-section boom is completed, and when every two single-section booms 3 are combined together, it becomes a single-section combined boom.

[0026] The lower chords of the two-section boom 3 are combined together by the third pin shaft 13, the second split pin 14, and the connecting rod 15. Then, the upper chords of the two-section boom 3 are combined and locked together by the fourth pin shaft 16 and the third split pin 17. At this time, the combination connection of the single-section boom is completed. Next, the first single-section boom 18 and the second single-section boom 19 are installed with the sixth pin shaft 21 using the hydraulic pin puller 20, and tightened with the second locking pin 22 and the fourth split pin 23. The fourth bolt assembly 24 connects the lower chord ear plates of the boom, and the installation of the combined boom is completed. Finally, a lifting boom is formed, and the installation process is very convenient and fast.

[0027] The hoisting pulley bracket 7 includes a main body, a circlip 7-1, a locking bolt 7-2, a clamping plate 7-3, a pulley 7-4, a bearing 7-5, a first pin shaft 7-6, and a spacer sleeve 7-7. The main body is installed on the boom 3 through the third bolt assembly 8. The first pin shaft 7-6 is inserted into the main body. The outer wall of the first pin shaft 7-6 is sequentially sleeved with the spacer sleeve 7-7, the bearing 7-5, the circlip 7-1, and the pulley 7-4. The clamping plate 7-3 is sleeved on one end of the first pin shaft 7-6 and fixed by the locking bolt 7-2.

[0028] The hydraulic pin puller 20 includes a pump station 20-1, a hydraulic pipe 20-2, a fifth pin shaft 20-3, and a cylinder 20-4. The cylinder 20-4 is communicated with the pump station 20-1 through the hydraulic pipe 20-2, and the hydraulic pipe 20-2 is installed with the cylinder 20-4 through the fifth pin shaft 20-3.
