An example apparatus includes a flexible sleeve to contain a bumper of a crane. The flexible sleeve includes a first end to be closed adjacent the bumper to contain the bumper in a cavity defined by the flexible sleeve. The first end of the flexible sleeve and the bumper are to couple to a first position of the crane via a fastener. The flexible sleeve includes a second end opposite the first end. The second end is to couple to a second position of the crane to prevent the bumper contained in the cavity from falling from the crane if the first end of the flexible sleeve decouples from the first position of the crane.

Aspects of the present disclosure are directed toward apparatuses, systems, and methods for releasably connecting a first beam to a second beam. The apparatuses, systems, and methods may include a locking pin arranged on the first beam and configured to actuate between an unlocked position and a locked position and an arm coupled to the locking pin and extending parallel therewith. The apparatuses, systems, and methods may also include a sleeve arranged on the second beam and configured to receive the locking pin in the locked position to releasably secure the first beam to the second beam.

The shoe derailment device for use in derailing a conductor shoe assembly of a bridge crane from a conductor rail assembly generally has a wedge head provided at a longitudinal end of a body made of an electrically insulating material, the shoe derailment device being securable to the conductor rail assembly in a derailment position in which the shoe derailment device is positioned outside an operating zone of the bridge crane, with the wedge head facing the operating zone in a manner that if the conductor shoe assembly is moved outside the operating zone, into the area occupied by the shoe derailment device, the conductor shoe assembly is derailed from the conductor rail assembly as the conductor shoe assembly engages the wedge head and is maintained in a derailed state by the electrically insulating material when the conductor shoe assembly is engaged with the body.

Crane bumper containment sleeves are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a flexible sleeve to contain a bumper of a crane. The flexible sleeve includes a first end to be closed adjacent the bumper to contain the bumper in a cavity defined by the flexible sleeve. The first end of the flexible sleeve and the bumper are to couple to a first position of the crane via a fastener. The flexible sleeve includes a second end opposite the first end.

An arrangement for secure transfer of a travelling trolley between a first and a second rail in a hoisting system is provided. The arrangement including: a first and a second engagement devices are arranged to engage when the rails are aligned; a third and a fourth engagement devices are arranged to engage when the rails are aligned; a pivotable stop which in a closed position is arranged to form a barrier in the path of the trolley, and which is coupled with the first engagement device such that the first stop is pivoted out of the path of the trolley when the first and the second engagement devices engage, such that the trolley can pass between the rails; a pivotable second stop which in a closed position is coupled with the third engagement device.
