Crane
Provided is a crane that can detect obstacles within a sufficient range while traveling and while doing work. A crane that is provided with an obstacle sensor that, during travel, detects the approach of obstacles toward a front side part of a travel body and, during work, detects the approach of obstacles toward a rear side part of a turning body. According to a first embodiment, the obstacle sensor has a detection range that is directed from front to rear. According to a second embodiment, the obstacle sensor has a detection range that is directed from rear to front.
1. A crane, comprising an obstacle sensor that detects approach of an obstacle toward a front side part of a traveling body during traveling, and detects approach of an obstacle toward a rear side part of a swivel body on the traveling body during operation; and
a boom that is provided on the swivel body and is put into a state where the boom is luffed down forward during traveling and put into a state where the boom is luffed up during operation, wherein
the obstacle sensor includes a camera that is provided at a distal end of the boom at an angle such that an image-taking range thereof is turned into a range directed from a front side toward a lateral side of the traveling body and the swivel body during traveling and into a range directed from an upper side toward the traveling body and the swivel body during operation.
2. The crane according to claim 1 , wherein the distal end of the boom, to which the camera is provided, is located at a forward side of a front end of the traveling body when in the state where the boom is luffed down forward.
3. The crane according to claim 1 , wherein the obstacle sensor includes a further camera having a detection range from rear to front.
4. The crane according to claim 1 , wherein the obstacle sensor includes a further camera that is provided at a side end of a rear part of the swivel body and that is inclined in a tangential direction of a circle that becomes a swiveling locus during swiveling of the side end of the swivel body.
5. The crane according to claim 4 , wherein the further camera is disposed to face forward such that a lateral part of the traveling body and the swivel body is included in the image-taking range during traveling.
