ABSTRACT:
A boom hoist system for supporting and adjusting the position of a lifting crane gantry is provided including a drum, a drive system, and first and second braking systems for selectively stopping rotation of the drum. The boom hoist system operates independently from crane mechanical works and the first and second braking systems may include sensors for automatically engaging when specified conditions occur in order to prevent a hoisted gantry from falling uncontrollably in the event of a hoist system malfunction or failure.
