| A movement device is moved along an X axis and a Y axis by providing a sensor configured to measure angle of rotation of at least one of a first and a second kinematic link about a respective axis of rotation. A force is imparted on the first and second kinematic links such that an angular displacement of the first and second kinematic links about the respective axis of rotation is achieved. The angular displacement of the first and second kinematic links about the respective axis of rotation is determined. The movement device is moved along the X axis and/or the Y axis in response to the determination of the angle of rotation of the first and second kinematic links about the respective axis of rotation until first and second kinematic links are vertical. | ||||||

| 185 | Method for calibrating a movable crane part of a crane | US14767236 | 2013-11-22 | US09511983B2 | 2016-12-06 | Robert Eidenberger; Dirk Rehbein; Thomas Wösch |
| A method for calibrating a first movable part of a crane. Position a first crane part above a calibration point at a first predetermined co-ordinate in a reference system. Measure a first distance between a first transmitter/receiver element of a first distance measuring device mounted on the first movable crane part and a second transmitter/receiver element of the first distance measuring device disposed in a stationary manner in the reference system. Measure an orientation of the first transmitter/receiver element in accordance with the first predetermined co-ordinate, the measured first distance and a first item of information concerning the surroundings. Perform a transformation in the reference system in accordance with the ascertained orientation of the first transmitter/receiver element for transforming distance measured during operating of the crane by means of the first and second transmitter/receiver elements to determine a position of the first movable crane part. Because the method makes use of information concerning the surroundings, an installation position of the first transmitter/receiver element on the first movable crane part does not have to be known precisely. Moreover only one calibration point has to be approached in order to calibrate the crane. | ||||||
| 186 | COLLAPSIBLE CRANE CAPABLE OF BEING TRANSPORTED BY CONTAINER | US14888851 | 2014-07-21 | US20160060080A1 | 2016-03-03 | Duckrae CHO |
| Disclosed therein is a collapsible crane capable of being transported by a container which includes a girder including a first girder of the left side, a second girder of the right side and a third girder of the middle side, the first girder and the second girder are detachably connected to flanges of the both ends of the third girder, and components mounted on the first girder, the second girder and the third girder are collapsed to come into contact with the first girder, the second girder and the third girder. Therefore, because the girder is separated into the first girder, the second girder and the third girder, and the components, such as saddles, inspection deck and a walk way hand rail, mounted on the first girder, the second girder and the third girder are collapsed toward the girders so as to come into contact with the girders, it minimizes the volume of the assembly of the first girder, the second girder and the third girder, so that the girders can be packed in the space of the standardized container by units. Therefore, because the crane which is heavy, long and large can be disassembled and collapsed and packed in the container by units, the crane can be transported by a general container without any special transporting vehicle not only in a land route but also in a sea route, thereby remarkably reducing transporting costs and the transporting period. | ||||||
