A boom working device has a boom, mounted on and extending from a boom support, on which an end effector mounting interface is formed. The boom is equipped with two linear output structures, each in engagement with one of two drive wheels of the boom support. With respect to the boom support, the boom is both pivotable around a main axis and also capable of linear movement at right-angles to the main axis. Through harmonised rotary actuation of the drive wheels an operating movement of the boom may be generated, consisting either of a pivoting movement alone or of a linear movement alone or of the pivoting movement with simultaneously superimposed linear movement.

System and methods for a DC powered hydraulic system capable of providing control over pressurized hydraulic fluid delivered to directional valves without the need for a PTO and/or a proportional valve. The hydraulic system controls the output from a battery to a direct current hydraulic pump.

A self-maintaining crane system including a bridge, a trolley, a hoist, and sensors for use within a hostile environment, such as a wastewater treatment facility, is presented. The bridge is movable along a pair of runway rails within the hostile environment. The trolley is movable between the runway rails. The hoist with extendable-retractable cable is movable with the trolley. Bridge sensors separately determine whether the bridge has engaged a bridge home position and a bridge end position. The bridge is movable away from the bridge home position and back toward the bridge end position. Trolley sensors separately determine whether the trolley has engaged a trolley home position and a trolley end position. The trolley is movable away from the trolley home position and back toward the trolley end position. Hoist sensors separately determine whether the cable has engaged a hoist home position and a hoist end position. The cable is extendable away from the hoist home position and retractable toward the hoist end position. Sensors facilitate automated movement of bridge, trolley, and cable so as to minimize functional impairment of the crane system by the hostile environment.

Provided are a crane control system and control method for precisely and quickly positioning a crane at a target position. A control system that includes: a position acquisition unit that successively acquires a current position of a gantry crane; and a travel control unit that is connected to each of a pair of travel devices includes a target line that extends in an X direction in plan view and is bent in a Y direction in accordance with an inclination in the Y direction in a state where the traveling gantry crane is inclined, and the travel control unit carries out a control of making the gantry crane travel by adjusting respective travel speeds of the pair of travel devices based on a travel deviation ΔDt between the target line and the current position of the gantry crane acquired by the position acquisition unit.
