An embodiment relates to a mobile crane having an articulated body and an elongate boom attached to the body, the boom being for carrying a load when the crane is stationary and while the crane is mobile. The boom is articulated to provide a movement for lifting and lowering an end of the boom, and the boom is further articulated to provide a movement of the boom laterally. A further embodiment relates to controlling swing of a load carried at the end of a boom of a mobile crane by varying lateral orientation of the boom.

A vehicle crane having a superstructure with a jib system including a main jib mounted in a luffable manner on the superstructure, with a jib head and a luffable additional jib and at least one luffing support supported in the region of a luffing axis of the additional jib. At least one guying support of the jib system is arranged in such a manner that a tensioner starting on the one hand from the superstructure and/or from a counterweight and connected on the other hand to the additional jib is guided via the at least one guying support and the at least one luffing support. A main jib extension is incorporated between the jib head and the additional jib with the at least one guying support supported at the main jib extension to obtain a longer design of the jib system with the highest possible permissible bearing load.

Vehicles are disclosed for the internal transport of heavy-load coils. The vehicle may include a drive unit and a loading device coupled thereto. The loading device may be configured to hold a plurality of heavy-load coils. An articulated steering system may be formed between the drive unit and the loading device. The vehicle may include separating elements connected to the loading device, which may be movable parallel to a vehicle longitudinal direction. The separating elements may be configured to secure heavy-load coils of different widths against tilting.
