Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cranes, in particular to a marine crane. Background Art

[0002] Marine cranes are special cranes that perform transportation operations in a maritime environment. They are mainly used for important tasks such as the transportation and transfer of cargo between ships, marine replenishment, and the deployment and recovery of underwater operating equipment. For marine cranes, due to the influence of marine environmental factors such as sea breeze and waves, the ship and the crane will experience roll and pitch, causing the hook to swing, and it is impossible to accurately place the material in the designated position. In severe cases, the ship and the crane may tilt or capsize, posing a safety hazard. It is necessary to install a roll-stabilizing device on the marine crane. The existing marine crane roll-stabilizing device has a complex structure. At the same time, installing a roll-stabilizing device on a marine crane without a roll-stabilizing device is likely to interfere with the structural strength of the original crane itself, making it difficult to install and occupying a large amount of deck space.
