A mobile crane having a main jib that is mounted thereupon for luffing and that can be oriented by means of a luffing cylinder, and a main jib extension which is detachably connected to a main jib head of the main jib by upper and lower bolts, it being possible to angle the main jib extension about a luffing axis relative to the main jib proceeding from a base position following release of the upper or lower bolts and using an angle drive, the angle drive engaging with a foot of the main jib extension, a maximum angling angle being delimited by an adjustable angling plate, and the angling plate engaging with the foot of the main jib extension and the main jib head. The angle drive is a component of an angling plate in the form of a combi-angling plate.
A mobile crane with a main jib luffably mounted thereon and able to be raised via a luffing cylinder, and with a main jib extension releasably connected to a main jib head of the main jib via upper and lower bolts, the main jib extension, starting from a basic position, is able to be angled about a luffing axis relative to the main jib by an angling drive, wherein the angling drive is a component of a combi-angling plate which delimits a maximum angling angle in a mechanically adjustable manner, and wherein the angling drive engages on a foot of the main jib extension and the main jib head and the combi-angling plate comprises a sliding plate, a guiding plate and the angling drive, and wherein the combi-angling plate can be modified in length via the angling drive and the angling drive drivingly engages on the one hand on the sliding plate and on the other hand on the guiding plate, and wherein the sliding plate can be displaced in a length-modifiable manner relative to the guiding plate via the angling drive, wherein the combi-angling plate on the one hand engages on the main jib head and on the other hand on the main jib extension, wherein the sliding plate is displaceably guided in the guiding plate and the angling drive is disposed in the guiding plate.
