Lorry-mounted concrete pump with increased extension of the articulated delivering boom and outline within the limits set by the European code on free circulation on the road

摘要

Lorry-mounted concrete pump comprising a vehicle (V) whereon a rotary turret (S) carrying a collapsible, articulated boom (B) is mounted, whereon a pipe (P) is mounted for carrying fluid concrete from a loading hopper (T) to a delivery hose. In a collapsed boom condition the lorry-mounted pump falls within the outline limit of 12 m length, 2.5 m width and 4 m height, and is hence suited to free circulation on the road. The arrangement of the individual members of the articulated boom is optimised so as to have a maximum extension of the boom between 48 and 52 metres.
