ABSTRACT:
A high-capacity lift assembly consisting essentially of a multipurpose platform and a pair of commercially available truck cranes or crawler cranes wherein the lifting capacity of the respective cranes is combined to create an overall assembly capable of lifting an object weighing at least double the capacity of the individual cranes. The invention further includes a drive shaft to interconnect the hoists of the respective cranes to synchronize the rotation of the hoists, a mast and boom mounting arrangement to support the loading forces with the platform and an equalizing beam to distribute the load forces equally between the two truck cranes.
