Fusing environmental and boom motion data, the system detects obstacles in dynamic spaces to prevent collisions across varying weather conditions.
Segmented ballast shifts from the rotating platform to the tractor truck during transport, improving convoy stability without overloading crane wheels.
Hysteresis clutch provides constant braking torque to prevent tower crane autorotation while allowing wind alignment.
Modular beams use tailor welded panels with varying steel grades to reduce material cost while maintaining strength.
Inclined boom surfaces enable self-alignment in lightweight aluminum cranes, resolving weight and strength trade-offs.
A pivotable transfer rocker couples a vehicle crane bracing apparatus to the jib roller head, enabling automatic rigging and de-rigging.
A deflectable coupling element with a sensor detects rope deflection to limit boom adjustments and prevent structural strain during operation.
