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.

Some new cranes have a 120-tonne load capacity, enabling them to lift up to four 20-foot (6.1 m) or two 40-foot (12 m) containers. Cranes capable of lifting six 20-foot containers have also been designed. Post-Panamax cranes weigh approximately 800–900 tonnes, while the newer-generation super-post-Panamax cranes can weigh 1,600–2,000 tonnes.
The Port of Baltimore shared an image of the crane barge, Donjon's Chesapeake 1000, which ABC News reported was onsite Friday morning at the site of the Francis Scott Key Bridge. The span ...
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]
Chebyshev linkages did not receive widespread usage in steam engines, [citation needed] but are commonly used as the 'Horse head' design of level luffing crane.In this application the approximate straight movement is translated away from the line's midpoint, but it is still essentially the same mechanism.
The exact location of the North Carolina marsh isn’t given in the popular book (now a movie), but we used a few clues to come up with our best guesses.
