    The origami crane diagram, using the Yoshizawa–Randlett system. The Yoshizawa–Randlett system is a diagramming system used to describe the folds of origami models. Many origami books begin with a description of basic origami techniques which are used to construct the models.

  3. Electric overhead traveling crane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_overhead...

    EOT cranes are extensively used in warehouses and industry. [2] An EOT crane is able to carry heavy objects to anywhere needed on the factory floor, and can also be used for lifting. However, it cannot be used in every industry. The working temperature is to limited to a range between -20°C to 40°C. [citation needed]

  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.

    [1] Advantages:its mobility gives a rubber tyred gantry crane wide appliance Being mobile, RTGs are often powered by diesel generator systems (gensets) of 100 to 600 kW (134 to 805 hp). Due to the lack of an electrical grid to dump energy when containers are being lowered they often have large resistor packs to rapidly dissipate the energy of a ...

  6. Overhead crane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overhead_crane

    An overhead crane, commonly called a bridge crane, is a type of crane found in industrial environments. An overhead crane consists of two parallel rails seated on longitudinal I-beams attached to opposite steel columns by means of brackets. The traveling bridge spans the gap. A hoist, the lifting component of a crane, travels along the bridge.

  7. Gantry crane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gantry_crane

    Taisun, the world's strongest gantry crane, at Yantai Raffles Shipyard, Yantai, China. Full gantry cranes (where the load remains beneath the gantry structure, supported from a beam) are well suited to lifting massive objects such as ships' engines, as the entire structure can resist the torque created by the load, and counterweights are generally not required.

  8. Mobile crane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_crane

    A mobile crane is a cable-controlled crane mounted on crawlers or rubber-tired carriers or a hydraulic-powered crane with a telescoping boom mounted on truck-type carriers or as self-propelled models. [1] They are designed to easily transport [2] to a site and use with different types of load and cargo with little or no setup or assembly.

  9. Climbing formwork - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climbing_formwork

    Climbing formwork (crane-climbing): in this type of climbing formwork, the formwork around the structure is displaced upwards with the help of one or more cranes [4] once the hardening of the concrete has proceeded far enough. This may entail lifting the whole section, or be achieved segmentally.
