Abstract (en)
Apparatus (10) for lifting and moving an object, comprising a lifting member (18) provided with at least a cable (19) to support the object, and associated with translation means able to move the lifting member (18) horizontally together with the cable (19); in the apparatus a command device is provided for commanding the translation means (11-14, 16-17) which comprises a plurality of contact elements (25) disposed, angularly off-set, around a substantially vertical segment of the cable (19) and associated with corresponding load cells (27) able to detect the thrust of the cable (19) on the contact elements (25) following an external impulse determined by the inclination and thrust of the cable (19) in a set direction caused by an operator; the load cells (27) are able to generate an electric signal to drive the translation means (11-14, 16-17) according to the thrust detected by the load cells (27), to determine a horizontal displacement of the lifting member (18) and of the cable (19) in the set direction.
