The invention relates to a cylinder head body, a single cylinder bolt system and a crane, wherein, the cylinder head body comprises at least two branch bodies of cylinder head body, a cooperative positioning structure and a fixed connection structure are provided between two adjacent branch bodies of cylinder head body of the at least two branch bodies of cylinder head body, the branch body of cylinder head body has a cylindrical branch body structure, the cylindrical branch body structures of the at least two branch bodies of cylinder head body are cooperatively positioned by means of the cooperative positioning structure and are detachably connected by means of the fixed connection structure to form a barrel. The cylinder head body is composed of at least two branch bodies of cylinder head body in a dismountable way, which are cooperatively positioned and detachably connected by the cooperative positioning structure and the fixed connection structure, respectively, such that the cylinder head body may be dismounted into branch body structures during assembling, assembling manner thereof is not restricted by traditional assembling sequence, thereby improving the assembling efficiency and production efficiency. Moreover, the branch body structure of the cylinder had body is easy to dismount and maintain, which saves maintenance cost.

In a crawler crane, while a fly jib is in use, the fly jib is suspended from a coupling flange by a jib raising/lowering wire rope that is wound around a sheave, the sheave being slidably attached to a tip end side section of the fly jib. If the sheave is caused to slide by a jib raising/lowering cylinder attached to the fly jib, the fly jib suspended from the coupling flange by the jib raising/lowering wire rope inclines with respect to a boom. The raising/lowering mechanism of the fly jib is installed on the fly jib side, thus making it possible to easily perform work to extract/store the fly jib.

A portable winch and method of use is shown. One advantage of winches shown includes an ability to lower a boom or boom sections into limited access exit pit for winching operations such as pipe bursting. Sectional boom designs shown provide the ability to easily raise and lower a boom large distances without the need for a single long boom. Selected winch designs shown include flexible inserts between the boom and the winch frame that help resist damage from unforeseen shifting of the device during operation. Designs and methods shown also include multiple pulleys on a boom end unit. Fasteners are shown that reduce build up of debris.
