METHOD FOR ALLOCATING ELECTRICAL POWER TO CRANE EQUIPMENT
An allocation method for allocating an available maximum power from at least one power supply source to electrical equipment of a crane, in which the electrical equipment are powered with the available maximum power, includes selecting between: a raw mode in which the available maximum power is allocated over predefined actuation equipment and on accessory equipment predefined among the electrical equipment, the actuation equipment being defined according to a configuration of the crane, and an optimized mode in which the available maximum power is allocated over the predefined actuation equipment, and also over the accessory equipment but according to the cut-off conditions of the accessory equipment, so that according to the cut-off conditions the actuation equipment are powered or not.
WORK MACHINE
A work machine includes a ground propulsion apparatus, a undercarriage frame supported by the ground propulsion apparatus, a machine body supported by the undercarriage frame, a work implement attached to at least one of the undercarriage frame and the machine body, and a tilt mechanism. The machine body includes a chassis coupled to the undercarriage frame and a cab supported on the chassis. The tilt mechanism is arranged to tilt the cab relative to the chassis between an upright position and a recumbent position. The tilt mechanism includes an actuator arranged to move the cab relative to the chassis, and a lock arranged to selectively lock the cab in the upright position relative to the chassis.

LARGE CAB INNOVATIONS
A refuse truck includes a chassis, a body, a lift assembly coupled to the chassis and/or the body, a cab coupled to the chassis and positioned in front of the body, and a control system. The cab includes an armrest comprising controls pivotable between an active position and an inactive position and an armrest position sensor configured to determine a position of the armrest between the active position and the inactive position. The control system configured to control a user interface to provide an indication of a current position of the lift assembly. The control system further configured to determine a position of the armrest, and selectively activate a pendent control on an exterior of the body.
WORK MACHINE
A work machine 10 includes: a load detection unit 22a that detects a load on an operation mechanism 100; information output devices 43, 44, and 41a that output at least one of an image, a sound, and a vibration to an operator; and a control unit 47a that controls, according to the magnitude of a load detected by the load detection unit 22a, one or more of the level of at least one of the color intensity, the brightness, and the transparency of an image output by the information output device 44, at least one of the intensity and the level of frequency of a sound output by the information output device 43, and at least one of the intensity and the level of frequency of a vibration output by the information output device 41a.
WIND POWER GENERATION APPARATUS HAVING TOWER CRANE STRUCTURE
The present invention relates to an eco-friendly wind power generation apparatus that can perform power generation using wind by providing the blades of a wind power generator on a jib of a tower crane, and can perform wind power generation at the optimum altitude and in the optimum direction by automatically or manually performing the lifting/lowering and swing operation of a jib even when wind speed is insufficient because wind is not blowing, or perform wind power generation using artificial wind power generated by the operation of the jib, thereby generating a lot of electricity in necessary places and supply the electricity to all industrial sectors regardless of location and environment.

Crane, Construction Machine Or Industrial Truck Simulator
A crane, a construction machine or an industrial truck, with a control station including at least one input means for inputting control commands, a graphical simulation module for calculating a virtual representation of the machine surroundings and/or machine components visible from the control station, such as a boom or a load hook, and a display device for displaying the calculated virtual representation, wherein a movement simulation module is provided for determining movements and/or deformations of the machine components according to the inputted control commands, depending on which the graphical simulation module calculates the virtual representation. Proposed is a data emulation using hardware components, which carry out actual actuating movements and thus simulate “actual” actuating movements of the machine to be simulated, in order to provide corresponding movement data more rapidly and with less computing performance, whereby a more realistic simulation can be achieved in real-time or almost real-time.
