Definitions

  • the invention relates to a boom, especially a crane boom, in particular a mobile crane boom according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the object of the invention is to optimize the construction with respect to the stresses. It is solved by the subject matter of claim 1; the subclaims define advantageous embodiments.
  • One or more prestressed tension elements can therefore be integrated into a hybrid construction and checked with the aid of sensors.
  • the material can be better utilized.
  • the signals can be included in the load torque limit to control the bending moments.
  • the measured values are an essential part of the control process and the safety system.
  • the compressive stress in the forming shell can be kept nearly constant as the tensile stress in the adjacent biasing elements decreases. Accordingly, prestressing forces remain almost constant in the tensile area with a simultaneous decrease in the compressive stress in the shell. Simultaneous monitoring with sensors significantly increases safety and usability.
  • Lightweight constructions are of vital importance in crane construction and above all in jib construction. Filigree constructions and the use of lightweight, high-strength materials by utilizing the favorable-acting bias make the boom parts powerful and light with low deformations. Compared to guyed constructions requires a mast according to the invention a smaller space. The load capacities in the strength range and in the stability area can be continuously increased.
  • differential forces can be applied by means of a controlled or controlled adaptation. Due to the applied length changes are forced forces in the Boom part introduced, which counteract the physical effects. The thus statically indefinite system is able to relocate a concentration of stress. The different loads are distributed almost uniformly on the cross section, local peak stresses are avoided.
  • the force component from the guy ropes in the boom longitudinal axis is previously attributed to several boom parts.
  • the individual fasteners are additionally loaded and must be sized larger (Verbolzungsechen, cylinders, ropes, etc.). Due to the inventive bias of the individual jib parts, the low-acting biasing force is short-circuited, the connecting elements are not charged in addition and can be designed more economical.
  • piezoelectric sensors As a signal generator, inter alia, fiber optic sensors or piezoelectric sensors can be used. Piezoelectric composites would be able to detect damage to the component.
  • Actuators generate the variable tensile forces in the elements.
  • hydraulic cylinders pneumatic cylinders, spindles, springs or piezoceramic actuators can be used.
  • the individual boom parts are adapted separately to changing stresses by a force acts on the respective biasing elements or they are excited to a change in length.
  • the system of shell, traction elements with sensors and / or actuators and cladding layer recognizes and regulates the degree of utilization and distributes the load harmoniously over the cross section.
  • the load capacity and the usability are increased.
  • the dead weight is reduced, thus increasing the stability values. Deformation and vibrations are greatly reduced, the fatigue strength increases and a pendulum load is reduced or prevented.
  • the cross section of the forming shell can be designed so that it is suitable to absorb compressive stresses at low material thickness.
  • a Shaping with outwardly curved shells without sharp-edged transitions is to be preferred.
  • Preferred materials for the production of the forming shell include fine grain steel, aluminum or fiber composites.
  • tension elements preferably rods, wires or slats can be used.
  • the distribution over the cross section is arbitrary.
  • the tension elements are distributed over the entire surface or partially over the cross section.
  • they are arranged between the plain bearings to use anisotropic materials that have low strengths transverse to the fiber longitudinal direction.
  • the orientation of the tension elements may extend in the cantilever direction or obliquely thereto.
  • a combination of oblique and longitudinal tension members counteracts the bending and torsional loading of the boom.
  • anisotropic materials are arranged on the sliding bearing surfaces, it must be ensured that the sliding and cladding layers distribute the high concentrated transverse forces from the bearings accordingly.
  • Suitable materials include carbon fibers, natural fibers, high strength steel wires or highly modular plastic fibers.
  • the cross-sectional shape of the tension elements is arbitrary.
  • the anchoring and the force application of the tension elements are located in or on the end frame of the jib part.
  • the tension elements are distributed in hollow profiles, channels or in an elastic matrix over the shaping shell. If the traction elements with the forming shell and / or the sheath form a shear-resistant unit, they must be prestressed before the connection. If the tension elements lie without connecting means between the shaping shell and the transverse winding, they are clamped by the bending deformation and form a positive connection with the shell and the transverse winding.
  • tension elements are in hollow profiles, they are preferably connected to the shaping shell in a shear-resistant manner and are supporting elements of the cross section.
  • the combination of the shell, the hollow sections and the envelope results in the advantageous stability-promoting sandwich construction.
  • the traction units according to the invention can also have a positive influence on the bearing behavior, fatigue strength and serviceability.
  • the tension elements are advantageously protected against damage and environmental influences.
  • the circumferential winding keeps the traction elements running in the longitudinal axis in their position and prevents detachment from the shaping shell. Preference is given to materials which can absorb high compressive forces transversely to their longitudinal axis (glass fiber, natural fiber, highly modular synthetic fibers, etc.).
  • the circumferential material layer absorbs lateral forces, and the stiffening effect increases the buckling resistance and reduces the risk of breakdown in shell constructions.
  • the circumferential fiber composite layer in conjunction with the abrasion-resistant and lubricious outer layer, protects the tension elements.
  • reference numeral 10 generally refers to the boom or boom cross-section.
  • reference numeral 11 biased tension elements are referred to, which are located within hollow sections 12.
  • the reference numeral 13 points to a layer of transverse fibers, while with 14 is a protective layer.
  • the inner shell 15 is a shaping shell, and the lamellae or lamella elements arranged in the transition region between the upper shell and the vertical section have been provided with the reference numeral 16.
  • the arrangement of the anchorages, in which the sensors and / or actuators are housed, are identified by the reference numeral 17.
