Abstract

The invention relates to a supporting bracket ( 38 ) of a supporting construction for mobile machine tools, especially for concrete pumps. The supporting bracket ( 38 ) is multi-telescopic and comprises a carriage ( 38 ) which is pivotably arranged on the chassis ( 10 ), and a telescopic part consisting of a plurality of telescopic segments ( 40′, 40″, 40 ′″) which are guided inside each other, engage in the carriage, and are mobile in relation thereto. The aim of the invention is to provide a narrow support using simple means. To this end, the carriage ( 38 ) and at least some of the telescopic segments ( 40″, 40 ′″) have coupling points ( 50′, 50″, 50 ′″) on which the segments can be coupled in pairs in such a way as to produce a fixed connection when the segments are retracted in relation to each other.

Claims (16)

1. A support construction for mobile concrete pumps, comprising at least two support booms, each support boom having a chassis, a push-out box disposed on the chassis, said push-out box having a telescopic part engaging into the push-out box, said telescopic part comprising at least first and second telescopic segments movable in relation to the chassis, one of said at least first and second telescopic segments being guided inside another of said first and second telescopic segments, a foot part disposed on a front end of the first telescopic segment, a plurality of coupling pins, and a coupling member, wherein the push-out box and at least part of the telescopic segments have coupling points on which the first telescopic segment can be coupled with the second telescopic segment so as to produce a fixed connection when the segments are retracted in relation to each other, wherein the coupling pins are disposed at the coupling points, the coupling points having a defined distance from each other in a retracted state of the telescopic segments, and wherein the coupling member has first and second recesses disposed at a distance from each other corresponding to the distance of the coupling pins from each other to permit the coupling member to be set onto selected coupling pins.

2. A mobile concrete pump, comprising a support construction comprising at least two support booms, each support boom having a chassis, a push-out box disposed on the chassis, said push-out box having a telescopic part engaging into the push-out box, said telescopic part comprising at least first and second telescopic segments movable in relation to the chassis, one of said at least first and second telescopic segments being guided inside another of said first and second telescopic segments, a foot part disposed on a front end of the first telescopic segment, a plurality of coupling pins, and a coupling member, wherein the push-out box and at least part of the telescopic segments have coupling points on which the first telescopic segment can be coupled with the second telescopic segment so as to produce a fixed connection when the segments are retracted in relation to each other, wherein the coupling pins are disposed at the coupling points, the coupling points having a defined distance from each other in a retracted state of the and second recesses disposed at a distance from each other corresponding to the distance of the coupling pins from each other to permit the coupling member to be set onto selected coupling pins.

3. A support boom for a mobile work machine comprising:

(a) a chassis;

(b) a push-out box disposed on the chassis, said push-out box having a telescopic part engaging into the push-out box, said telescopic part comprising at least first and second telescopic segments movable in relation to the chassis, one of said at least first and second telescopic segments being guided inside another of said first and second telescopic segments;

(c) a foot part disposed on a front end of the first telescopic segment;

(d) a plurality of coupling pins; and

(e) a coupling member;

wherein the push-out box and at least part of the telescopic segments have coupling points on which the first telescopic segment can be coupled with the second telescopic segment so as to produce a fixed connection when the segments are retracted in relation to each other;

wherein the coupling pins are disposed at the coupling points, the coupling points having a defined distance from each other in a retracted state of the telescopic segments; and

wherein the coupling member has first and second recesses disposed at a distance from each other corresponding to the distance of the coupling pins from each other to permit the coupling member to be set onto selected coupling pins.

4. The support boom according to claim 3 , wherein the coupling points are disposed in the region of the front end of the push-out box and at least of a part of the telescopic segments.

5. The support boom according to claim 3 , wherein the coupling member can be coupled with two selected coupling points in each instance, producing the fixed connection.

6. The support boom according to claim 3 , wherein the push-out box has a holder pin for the coupling member, which pin is disposed at a defined distance from the coupling pin on the push-out box side.

7. The support boom according to claim 3 , wherein the coupling pins have a crosswise bore for accommodating a locking element.

8. The support boom according to claim 3 , wherein the coupling member has the shape of a tab having two recesses disposed at a distance from one another.
