Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1314681A1] A method for operating a crane including a jib (2) from which a cargo (G) is hung via a rope includes a hypothetical rope length setting step; a hypothetical acceleration pattern operation step is operated to ensure the swing of the cargo is stopped at the target position (B); a rope length change obtaining step in which a change in an actual length ( lambda ) of the rope member is obtained; a jib point acceleration pattern operation step is operated so that an acceleration pattern for the swing angle of the rope matches the hypothetical acceleration pattern; and a jib moving step in which the jib point is linearly moved. Additionally arcuate paths for moving the cargo are disclosed which touch the minimum operating radius for the crane, and a method to determine whether the path should be linear or an arc. <IMAGE>
