Telescopic column
A telescopic column includes at least two linearly movable telescopic elements and a drive system. The drive system includes a drive unit having a first clutch element and an output unit having a shaft, a windable connecting element and a second clutch element connected to the shaft such that the clutch element and the shaft rotate together. The drive system includes a brake unit configured to transmit a retaining force onto the second clutch element and configured such that applying a drive moment to the first clutch element reduces the retaining force and allow the telescopic elements to move relative to each other. The brake unit is further configured such that applying an output-side torque to the second clutch element increases the retaining force acting on the second clutch element.

TELESCOPING JIB COMPRISING A GUYING SYSTEM FOR A MOBILE CRANE AND GUYING METHOD THEREFOR
A telescoping jib of a mobile crane with telescoping sections that telescope inwards and outwards from a jib base casing, and a guying system for the telescoping jib having at least one cable extending between a guying frame and a fixed point by a guying support and is anchored by guying supports, where each guying support comprises a holding mechanism for the cable. A method for guying a telescoping jib of a mobile crane in which at least one cable is anchored between a guying frame on the telescoping jib consisting of a jib base casing and a plurality of telescoping segments and a fixed point on the telescoping jib, and the at least one cable is guided by means of at least one guying support supported on the jib base casing head or a telescoping segment head of the telescoping jib.
ROPE TYPE ELEVATING DEVICE
The present invention relates to a rope type elevating device, and more particularly, to a rope type elevating device that can mechanically and safely control the falling speed even if a breakage occurs in the brake being electrically controlled during the elevating and descending operation.
The rope type lifting device of the present invention comprising an electronic braking device for winding a conveying rope to move the rope up and down by using power, and a mechanical braking device for mechanically moving the conveying rope up and down, characterizes in that the mechanical braking device comprises: an unlocking lever being rotated by an external force within a predetermined rotation range; a connecting portion connected to the unlocking lever and moving forward by a predetermined amount in conjunction with the rotation of the unlocking lever; a rotating body that rotates by the amount of advancement of the connecting portion and adjusts a pressing force applied to the conveying rope; and a stopper for limiting the rotation range of the rotating body and supporting the pressing force applied to the rope by the rotating body.

APPARATUS FOR PASSIVELY PREVENTING MARINE FLOATING BODY FROM TWISTING DURING MOORING
The present invention relates to an apparatus for passively preventing a marine floating body from twisting during mooring by controlling tension in ropes connected to the marine floating body within a predetermined allowable limit. The apparatus includes: a floating main body connected to the ropes, fixed on the sea, and providing a space for marine work; winches disposed on the floating main body and retracting or releasing the ropes fixing the floating main body; fairleads disposed on portions of the floating main body and guiding the ropes to the winches through themselves; and braking units disposed on portions of the floating main body at a predetermined distance from the fairleads, with the ropes passing through the fairleads and themselves, and controlling a speed of the ropes that are retracted to the winches at a predetermined speed.
