[0044] The terms "first", "second", "third" and the like are only used to distinguish similar attributes or elements, and do not indicate or imply relative importance or a specific order.

[0045] The terms "include", "contain" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, in addition to containing the listed elements, other elements not explicitly listed can also be contained.

[0046] The embodiment of the present application provides a method for replacing the luffing cylinder of a luffing tower crane, which is used for replacing the luffing cylinder of the luffing tower crane. Please refer to Figs. 1 and 2, the luffing tower crane comprises a tower body, a boom 11 and a luffing cylinder 13 (see Fig. 4), the boom 11 comprises an upper chord 111, a lower chord 113, a side web 114, a bottom straight web 115 and a bottom inclined web 117. The upper chord 111 is provided with lifting lugs 1111, two bottom inclined webs 117 in the shape of "8" are arranged between the two bottom straight webs 115, thereby forming a triangular hollow at the bottom of the boom 11 to allow the luffing cylinder 13 to pass out or pass in. Specifically, one end of the bottom inclined web 117 in the shape of "8" is connected to one of the lower chords 113, and the other end is connected to one of the bottom straight webs 115. One end of the luffing cylinder 13 is connected to the tower body, and the other end is connected to the boom 11.

[0047] Please refer to Fig. 3, the boom tower crane amplitude cylinder replacement method of the embodiment includes the following steps:

[0048] S11, using the auxiliary hoisting device on the boom tower crane to hoist the amplitude cylinder 13 to be removed, and remove the amplitude cylinder 13 to be removed. Specifically, the auxiliary hoisting device on the boom tower crane can be a sling provided on the jib 11, and the lifting lug 1111 on the jib 11 can provide a lifting point for the sling.

[0049] S13, using the auxiliary hoisting device on the boom tower crane to pass the amplitude cylinder 13 to be removed to the bottom of the jib 11. Specifically, the amplitude cylinder 13 is passed from between the bottom inclined web members 117 of the "8" shape to the bottom of the jib 11.

[0050] S15, using the lifting mechanism of the boom tower crane to lower the amplitude cylinder 13 to be removed to the ground. Specifically, the lifting mechanism of the boom tower crane is the lifting mechanism for lifting heavy objects when the boom tower crane is working, and the lifting mechanism of the boom tower crane is relatively long, which can lower the amplitude cylinder 13 from below the jib 11 extending to a high place to the ground.

[0051] S17, using the lifting mechanism of the boom tower crane to lift the amplitude cylinder 13 to be installed to the bottom of the jib 11.

[0052] S19, using the auxiliary hoisting device on the boom tower crane to pass the amplitude cylinder 13 to be installed into the jib 11. Specifically, the amplitude cylinder 13 to be installed is passed from between the bottom inclined web members 117 of the "8" shape to between the inclined web members 114 of the jib 11.

[0053] S21, using the auxiliary hoisting device on the boom tower crane to hoist the amplitude cylinder 13 to be installed, and installing the amplitude cylinder 13 to be installed to the boom tower crane.

[0054] In the boom tower crane amplitude cylinder replacement method of the embodiment, the amplitude cylinder can be directly disassembled and assembled without disassembling the entire upper part of the boom tower crane, so it is convenient to disassemble and assemble, saves time and effort, and the replacement of the amplitude cylinder can be completed by using the auxiliary hoisting device and the lifting mechanism of the boom tower crane itself, without the need for additional hoisting equipment, thereby saving costs.

[0055] In the embodiment, the boom tower crane amplitude cylinder replacement method further includes the step before S11:

[0056] S10, please refer to Figure 4, control the boom 11 to the initial state, and remove the locking device for supporting the boom 11. Specifically, the initial state of the boom 11 generally refers to the state of the boom 11 in the horizontal position, which is also the lowest position of the boom 11 (the boom 11 cannot continue to rotate downward). When the boom 11 is in the initial state, even if the locking device is removed, the boom 11 can remain in the original state without falling.

[0057] Specifically, step S10 further includes removing the walkway corresponding to the position of the "eight" shaped bottom inclined web 117. In this way, space is provided for the variable amplitude oil cylinder 13 to pass out of or into the boom 11.

Specifically, the pin shaft of the piston end of the variable amplitude oil cylinder 13 can be removed in step S113. The second auxiliary lifting device 152 is used to hoist the position between the middle part and the second end of the cylinder barrel of the variable amplitude oil cylinder 13. It can be understood that the pin shaft of the piston end can also be removed first, and then the pin shaft of the cylinder end is removed, but it is more convenient to operate by removing the pin shaft of the cylinder end first.

Specifically, the tug wheel frame 119 is arranged on the lower chord 113 of the tower body and protrudes towards the inner side of the tower body, and the tug wheel frame 119 is used to carry the luffing cylinder 13 with the two end pins removed or the luffing cylinder 13 to be installed which has been hoisted from the ground. The tug wheel frame 119 is closer to the arm root of the tower body than the triangular hollow between the bottom inclined web members 117 of the "eight" shaped. The first auxiliary hoisting device 151, the second auxiliary hoisting device 152 and the third auxiliary hoisting device 153 are arranged on one side of the upper chord 111, so that the triangular hollow formed by the tug wheel frame 119 and the bottom inclined web members 117 of the "eight" shaped is below the first auxiliary hoisting device 151, the second auxiliary hoisting device 152 and the third auxiliary hoisting device 153.
