  2. Hercules crane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hercules_crane

    A crane was needed which could set larger and heavier blocks, up to 30 tons. The Hercules design combined aspects of both the earlier fixed-jib gantry cranes built for works at Manora and that would later be used for a slewing jib crane at Port Alfred. A horizontal jib was added, with the ability to slew sideways.

  3. Ring crane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_crane

    A ring crane is a form of large construction crane with a luffing jib. It is distinguished by its slew pivot [i] being in the form of a ring-shaped track, rather than a narrow central spindle. The broad base this gives to the slewing section above allows it to slew whilst carrying extremely heavy loads. Ring cranes are rare.

  4. Level luffing crane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Level_luffing_crane

    A level-luffing crane is a crane mechanism where the hook remains at the same level while luffing: moving the jib up and down, so as to move the hook inwards and outwards relative to the base. [1] Usually the description is only applied to those with a luffing jib that have some additional mechanism applied to keep the hook level when luffing.

  5. Crane (machine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crane_(machine)

    The "hammerhead", or giant cantilever, crane is a fixed-jib crane consisting of a steel-braced tower on which revolves a large, horizontal, double cantilever; the forward part of this cantilever or jib carries the lifting trolley, the jib is extended backwards in order to form a support for the machinery and counterbalancing weight. In addition ...

  6. Slewing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slewing

    The process of rotating a telescope to observe a different region of the sky is referred to as slewing. The term slewing is also found in motion control applications. Often the slew axis is combined with another axis to form a motion profile. In crane terminology, slewing is the angular movement of a crane boom or crane jib in a horizontal plane.

  7. Jib (crane) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jib_(crane)

    This specific example uses a level luffing mechanism to maintain the load at approximately the same vertical height as the jib moves through its range of travel. A jib or jib arm is the horizontal or near-horizontal beam used in many types of crane to support the load clear of the main support. [1] [2] An archaic spelling is gib. [3]

  8. Bulk-handling crane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk-handling_crane

    Early French crane loading coal for a gasworks. A bulk-handling crane is one that, instead of a simple hook that can handle a range of slung loads, has an integral grab for lifting bulk cargoes such as coal, mineral ore etc. Where the grab is a two-piece hinged bucket, it is known as a shell grab or shell bucket. Working the grab requires extra ...

  9. Slewing bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slewing_bearing

    Slew ring bearing. A slewing bearing or slew[ing] ring (also called a turntable bearing) is a rotational rolling-element bearing that typically supports a heavy but slow-turning or slowly-oscillating loads in combination (axial, radial and moment loads), often a horizontal platform such as a conventional crane, a swing yarder, or the wind-facing platform of a horizontal-axis (yaw) windmill.
