ABSTRACT:
A crane boom pivotal about a horizontal axis is monitored as to loading over a prolonged period, e.g. a period of about 24 hours, by providing a position-dependent output representing the maximum permissible load moment on the boom at a particular position thereof relative to its support and a load sensor responsive to the instantaneous loading (load moment) of the boom. These two sensors provide inputs to a quotient-forming comparator whose output is applied to a 24-hour disk or tape recorder. The output of the quotient-forming comparator also controls a device for immobilizing the drive system for the boom, preventing it from exceeding its maximum permissible load.
