[0053] Please refer to Figure 2 , in this embodiment, the support column 1 includes a column base 3, an end extension section 7, and a plurality of intermediate extension sections disposed therebetween. According to the lifting height requirement of the actual working condition of the heavy object b, the number of intermediate extension sections of the support column can be increased or decreased; in this embodiment, there are 3 intermediate extension sections, which are the first intermediate extension section 4, the second intermediate extension section 5, and the third intermediate extension section 6 connected in sequence. Among them, the column base 3 is installed and fixed on the working base 8 by bolts around the circumference. A certain skew angle α can be designed between the column base 3 and the working base 8. The skew angle α can ensure that an included angle β is formed between the support column 1 and the horizontal plane a after installation, and β = 90°, ensuring that the crossbeam is parallel to the horizontal plane a. However, considering the deformation of the crossbeam under the flexural load, pre-deformation is designed between the joints of the crossbeam to make the whole crossbeam warp upward in advance, so as to achieve the effect that the crossbeam is parallel to the horizontal plane a after loading; the column base 3, the end extension section 7 and its adjacent intermediate extension sections are bolted together; each of the intermediate extension sections is bolted to the adjacent one.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 1-3 , in this embodiment, the end extension section 7 is connected to the first end of the multi-joint lifting crossbeam 2; specifically, an upper connection point 9 and a lower connection point 10 of the end extension section are provided on the end extension section 7, and the first end of the multi-joint lifting crossbeam 2 is connected through the upper connection point 9 and the lower connection point 10 of the end extension section.

[0055] Please refer to Figure 4-5, in this embodiment, the multi-joint lifting crossbeam 2 includes a plurality of successively connected movable joints. From the first end to the second end of the crossbeam, the heights of the plurality of movable joints decrease successively. According to the limit turning radius requirement of the lifted heavy object b, the number of movable joints of the multi-joint lifting crossbeam 2 can be increased or decreased accordingly. As Figure 4 shown, the structure of a single movable joint includes a first connecting member and a second connecting member that are rotatably connected, and the first connecting member of one movable joint is connected to the second connecting member of its adjacent movable joint.

[0056] Specifically, every two movable joints are connected by bolts. Figure 4 In the first connection part 11 and the second connection part 12 of the movable joint at the first end of the multi-joint lifting crossbeam 2 in Figure 3 are correspondingly connected to the upper connection part 9 and the lower connection part 10 of the end heightening section in Figure 4 to complete the connection between the end heightening section 7 and the first joint of the crossbeam. Figure 5 The third connection part 13 and the fourth connection part 14 of the movable joint in

[0057] Please refer to Figure 5 , the assembled state of the multi-joint lifting crossbeam 2.

[0058] Please refer to Figure 6 , when the multi-joint lifting crossbeam 2 is working, the first connecting member and the second connecting member of each movable joint rotate around their rotation axis 15, and the rotation axes 15 inside each movable joint can rotate relative to each other. With the external force pushing the end handle 20 and the intermediate handle 21, it drives the internal rotation of each joint, so as to ensure that the lifting hook reaches directly above the object to be lifted. Use equipment such as a chain block to lift the heavy object b, and push the end handle 20 and the intermediate handle 21 again to transfer the heavy object b to the target position to complete the lifting or installation operation. Within the rated load and working radius range, the crane provided in this embodiment can quickly and conveniently transfer the heavy object b; within the turning radius range of the multi-joint lifting crossbeam 2, the joints of the multi-joint lifting crossbeam 2 can rotate relative to each other, so that the hook bracket 19 can reach within a 360° range centered on the support column 1 for hoisting work.
