Disclosed are a crane and a control method therefor. The crane comprises a body, a boom, a luffing mechanism, a tension sensor, and a controller. One end of the boom is rotatably connected with the body. The luffing mechanism is respectively connected to the body and the boom. The tension sensor is disposed on the luffing mechanism, and the tension sensor is used for detecting a tension value of the luffing mechanism to the boom. The controller is electrically connected to the tension sensor and the luffing mechanism, and the controller is configured to determine that the arm length of the boom exceeds an arm length threshold if the tension value is greater than a tension threshold.

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.

The present invention relates to lifting gear, more particularly a crane, such as a rotary tower crane and/or mobile crane, having a supporting structure, a determination device for determining a load state and/or an operating state of the supporting structure, and a control unit for controlling actuators of the lifting gear depending on the determined load state and/or operating state, wherein the actuators are allocated to the supporting structure for the active bracing and/or deformation of the supporting structure in a variable manner during lifting gear operation, and the control unit is configured to temporarily and variably brace and/or deform the supporting structure by means of the actuators depending on the detected load state and/or operating state in order to relieve the load on supporting structure parts which are subject to high load.

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.

The invention relates to a crane, in particular to a mobile crane, comprising a lattice boom, a derrick boom, and a boom guying led from the derrick boom to the boom tip, wherein at least one guying frame is provided that is fastened to the boom between the derrick boom and the boom tip and is connected to the boom guying.

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.

The present application relates to a mobile crane comprising a telescopic boom which has a hinged section and at least one telescopic section which can be telescoped out of it, or to a crawler-mounted crane. In accordance with one embodiment, as a position detection device, it has at least one transducer in the form of an inductively operating transponder, a receiver unit for the sensing of the position of the transducer, a control device for control in dependence on a signal of the receiver unit, as well as a signal transmission device in the form of a databus for the transmission of the signal data from the receiver unit to the control device.

The invention relates to a crane, in particular to a mobile crane, comprising a lattice boom, a derrick boom, and a boom guying led from the derrick boom to the boom tip, wherein at least one guying frame is provided that is fastened to the boom between the derrick boom and the boom tip and is connected to the boom guying.

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.

A vehicle crane comprising a mounting framework, where at least one bracing arm of a bracing apparatus of the vehicle crane can be temporarily stored on the mounting framework. The mounting framework comprises at least one displaceable sliding frame and a single bracing arm can be temporarily stored on the sliding frame. The mounting framework is arranged in extension of a lower carriage of the vehicle crane and completely behind the lower carriage and is fastened to the lower carriage to provide a vehicle crane with an optimized temporary storage option for the bracing apparatus on the lower carriage. Also provided is a method for mounting a bracing apparatus on a telescoping jib of a vehicle crane.
