    摘要: A crane for use on an offshore vessel is provided with a boom restrainer, wherein the boom restrainer is a hydro-pneumatic boom restrainer, for reducing upward pivoting of the boom, when the boom is in the top zone, wherein the boom restrainer includes: multiple hydraulic cylinders, each having a hydraulic circuit and a cylinder rod with a cylinder head, wherein the cylinders are mounted on the crane structure with the cylinder heads directed towards the boom of the crane, preferably are mounted on a stay of the crane structure, a catcher for each hydraulic cylinder, wherein each catcher is mounted on the boom and is configured for receiving the cylinder head of the corresponding hydraulic cylinder, and to lock the cylinder head, preferably pivotable locks the cylinder head, relative to the boom, when the boom pivots upwards in the top zone; a gas buffer for each hydraulic cylinder, wherein each gas buffer is mounted to the corresponding hydraulic cylinder, and is connected to the hydraulic circuit of the corresponding hydraulic cylinder via a medium separator, wherein the gas buffer forces the hydraulic cylinder in an extended position, and wherein the volume ratio between the hydraulic cylinder and the gas buffer is such that the hydraulic cylinder acts as a progressive spring, e.g. the gas buffers each have a size in the range of 1000-1400 litre, for example 1200 litre and the hydraulic cylinders each have a size in the range of 800-1000 litre, for example 900 litre, and preferably the ratio between the volume of the gas buffer and the volume of the associated hydraulic cylinder is 4:3.

    摘要: A method for searching transition routes from an initial state of a plurality of stackable items to a target state by a computer at predetermined conditions includes connecting between transitionable states at an edge by a single handling operation transitioning from the initial state to the target state, to generate a state space graph; evaluating a lower bound of handling operation cost from a certain state to the target state, based on both the stacking sequence of the plurality of items in the certain state and the stacking sequence of the plurality of items in the target state; and searching a route from the initial state to the target state where the handling operation cost is minimal on the state space graph using a heuristic search algorithm based on the lower bound.

    摘要: Bales of crop scattered on a field are loaded on a vehicle by means of a loading apparatus mounted thereon. The loading apparatus comprises a gripping device for successively gripping the bales on the ground and lifting them to a position on the platform of the vehicle. The movements of the gripping device between said positions are performed automatically and controlled by a programmable controlling device which may be programmed in accordance with the desired pattern of stacking the bales on the vehicle platform. While the gripping device is lifting a bale and placing it on the vehicle platform and returning to the bale engaging position the driver drives the vehicle to the next bale to be loaded. The loading apparatus may also be used for reloading the vehicle if the control device is provided with a suitable program.

    摘要: This crane control device controls the operation of a boom and a winch and transports a load from a start point to an end point, the control device comprising: an acquisition unit that acquires position information of the start point and position information of the end point; a horizontal trajectory generation unit that, by using an optimal control theory, generates a horizontal trajectory for a distal-end part of the boom as represented by a horizontal-direction component of a straight line linking the start point and the end point; a movement trajectory generation unit that generates a trajectory of movement of the boom for transporting the load so as to follow the horizontal trajectory, and a trajectory of rotational movement of the winch; and a movement control unit that controls the boom and the winch based on the trajectory of movement of the boom and the winch.
