The purpose of this study is to predict the fatigue life of a planet carrier of a slewing reducer for a tower crane. To predict the fatigue life of the carrier, the inertia endurance test was carried out, and then the input torque profile for the reducer was obtained. The load profile acting on the planet pins that assembled the carrier was calculated from the measured input torque profile using commercial gearbox analysis software. The stress profiles of the carrier weak points were analyzed from the calculated load profile and boundary conditions using commercial FE software, and the stress cycles were determined using the rainflow counting method. Finally, the fatigue life of the carrier was predicted using the equivalent stress range by considering the effect of mean stress, and an S-N curve was drawn up using the GL guideline and the cumulative damage law.

The clamping force of a jaw pad is determined by the displacements of main part when two lockers are locked, after the clamping angle of a locker was set up in the wedge type rail clamp for a container crane. In this time, if the resistance of wedge frame generates due to several factors, the clamping angle of a locker to display the initial clamping force will be changed because of the reduction of displacement of extension bar. This resistance is determined by the eccentric distance between the roller and the wedge, and by the gap between the wedge frame and outer frame. In this study we measured the tensile force of both extension bar through the performance test of the prototype rail clamp in order to evaluate the effect of the resistance of wedge frame on the clamping force of the wedge type rail clamp.

Tower crane is of great importance in the construction of high rise buildings. A self-lifting & slewing multi-cranes platform (referred to as crane slewing platform) was developed to optimize the configuration of tower cranes, as well as solve the problems of cooperative operation conflict between multiple cranes and other construction equipment and their respective climbing and occupying of construction period. The design and test of the slewing platform was introduced. By applying the slewing platform in the construction of Chengdu Greenland Center super high rise building project, some key technologies such as the configuration of cranes, the installation, construction and lifting of the slewing platform are implemented and validated. Up to now, the slewing platform has been safely lifted up 98 times in Chengdu Greenland Center project construction, and achieved good social and economic benefits.

This paper presents average travel time models automated warehousing system where the stacker crane transports only one pallet at a time with the tchebychev travel, I/O point is located at the cornor of the rack, and items are stored by the class-based storage assignment rule. In this study, the racks are treated as the continuous rectangle in time and a statistical approach was used to develop the models. In order to test the proposed models, average travel times determined by the models are compared with the true values for various rack shapes.

As a new technical approach, a hydraulic and magnetic clamp device was developed to realize a magnetic clamp crane system by simultaneously actuating eight individual hydraulic cylinders. In this approach, an Sr-type of ferritic permanent magnet (SrO· 6Fe₂O₃), rather than the previous electromagnet, was utilized for the purpose of lifting and transporting the large curved steel plates used for manufacturing ships. This study had the goal of developing and manufacturing a hydraulic, magnetic clamp prototype composed of three main parts, including the base frame, cylinder joint, and magnet joint, in order to safely transport curved steel plates. Furthermore, this research included a performance evaluation of the manufactured prototype and acquired the purposed quantity value in the performance test. The most significant item, the magnetic adhesive force (G), was evaluated in a performance test, which utilized a ferritic permanent magnet (Sr type) with 3700~4000 G of residual induction (Br) and 2640/2770 Oe of coercive force (Hc). In particular, relevant items such as the hoist tension (kN), transportation time (s), and applied load (Kgf) on the hydraulic cylinders were also evaluated in order to determine the optimum values.

This paper deals with tipping over of hydraulic excavator's crane work. If excavator lift too heavy weight, excavator tipped up. This is 38% of whole excavator accidents. In this paper, tipping over load which is maximum load of excavator can lift with displacement of excavator links, real load and tipping over rate are calculated with Zero Moment Point. We designed the tipping-over stability criterion algorithm considering the dynamic characteristics to which ZMP theory is applied and discussed the usefulness of the proposed algorithm compared with the moment equilibrium equation through the simulation and the actual test.

Measurement of the vibration transmitted through rotating shafts such as half shafts in vehicles is of interest in applications such as noise transfer analysis and the study of operating deflections. Vibration signals transmitted through a rotating shaft usually include six degree-of-freedom components, thus making the measurement of vibration a challenging task. In the present work, a new measurement method is presented, one that resolves the minimum of only two one-axis accelerometer signals into all components of vibration with reasonable accuracy. The method utilizes the Dopplerized signals obtained from accelerometers attached to a rotating shaft and a Void-Kalman order tracking filter to decompose signals into orders of different vibration components. The new method proposed in the present work is verified by simulated run-up test data and applied to an experimentally obtained data set.

Since a tower crane is too high for a worker to ascend and by the wind in the high altitude, the possibility of a safety accident is very high, a lift assist is used. In this study, the hydraulic fall prevention device using the pressure generation device by Seok, et al. was developed. For this, the effects on the fall prevention performances of factors such as gear clearance, oil viscosity, rotative velocity and so on were evaluated by the analysis of fluid flow using FEM and the prototype was producted and a function test was performed.

This paper discusses the problem of scheduling berth and container cranes simultaneously in port container terminals. A mixed-integer programming model is formulated by considering various practical constraints. A heuristic algorithm is suggested for solving the mathematical model. A numerical experiment was conducted to test the performance of the suggested heuristic algorithm.
