Abstract (en)

Turntable ladder or the like, with a telescopic ladder unit and, attached at the end of the ladder unit, an articulated arm which carries a cage, which turntable ladder contains a control for moving the ladder sections, formed in such a way that, during cage travel, vibrations of the ladder sections are suppressed, while at least one of the measured variables, bending of the ladder unit in the horizontal and vertical direction, angle of elevation, angle of rotation, run-out length and torsion of the ladder unit is fed back via a controller to the control variables for the drives and for which a pilot control is provided which represents the idealised movement behaviour of the ladder during cage travel in a dynamic model, based on differential equations and calculates the idealised control variables for the ladder section drives from the dynamic model for an essentially vibration-free movement of the ladder.
