(57) System for the control and monitoring of the operation of self-propelled, articulated-boom
machines, in particular concrete pumps, comprising a plurality of sensors capable
of continuously detecting instant data concerning the geometric conditions of the
operating attitude of the machine and the load conditions thereof, as well as a central
processing unit which, on the basis of such data and of previously-stored safety parameters,
continuously checks for the meeting of one or more critical conditions for machine
safety, such as levelling, overturning moment, stability, resonance swinging of the
articulated boom.
During machine operation, when at least one of said critical conditions is approached
beyond a threshold value, the central unit provides to actuate a sound and visual
alarm signal and at the same time to activate automatic cycles for the gradual stop
of the machine and/or for gradually moving away from said critical condition.
