The invention relates to a bolting device having two bolts which are held rotationally secure and coupled to each other via a spindle element, wherein: a first bolt is connected via a threaded engagement to a corresponding thread of the spindle element; rotating the spindle element about its central longitudinal axis causes the first bolt to move along the longitudinal axis; and a second bolt is rotationally mounted on the spindle element in a fixed axial position. The invention also relates to a crane jib head comprising such a bolting device, for bolting a lattice masthead to a head adaptor.

Provided is a crane with a main boom and a back mast, of which at least one comprises a first mast upper part comprising at least one mast section and a first mast lower part comprising at least one mast section, and a first mast tilting. The first mast tilting member is arranged between the first mast upper part and the first mast lower part, and has a straight hoisting state wherein the first mast upper part and the first mast lower part are essentially in line with each other, and a tilted hoisting state wherein the first mast upper part is tilted with respect to the first mast lower part.

A crane apparatus with an integrated assembly for overcoming each dead position between primary and secondary parts of its operational arm includes a bearing framework attached to a chassis and is furnished with at least two telescopic supporting legs that are vertically arranged, and a bearing mast that is connected with the bearing framework, and an operational arm is attached in a pivot point and pivotable around a horizontal axis. The operational arm includes a primary part and a secondary part that are pivotally connected with each other. The secondary part is pivotal around the horizontal axis connected with the primary part of the operational arm via a dead position overcoming assembly that includes a rotational driving subsystem as well as a mechanism that is attached to part of a hydraulic cylinder for pivoting relative to the secondary part of the operational arm.

A connecting device connects a first attachment and a second attachment constituting a working machine with each other. The connecting device includes a first connected member, a second connected member, and a connecting member (connecting pin 15). The first connected member extends outward from a first side surface of the first attachment, the first side surface extending in a longitudinal direction of the first attachment. The second connected member extends outward from a second side surface of the second attachment, the second side surface extending in a longitudinal direction of the second attachment, the second connected member facing the first connected member when the first attachment and the second attachment come into a connection state. The connecting member connects the first connected member and the second connected member with each other.

A crane having at least one jib system, a sensor unit for detecting a deformation of the jib system transversely to a load plane, and to an activatable adjustment unit for influencing the deformation of the jib system transversely to the load plane.
