Overhead crane monitoring system

Abstract

An overhead crane monitoring system is for monitoring an overhead crane (1). The overhead crane (1) includes a travelling body (2) that travels along rails (4), a traverse trolley (3) that travels in a direction perpendicular to a travelling direction of the travelling body (2) along the travelling body (2), and a hoisting device (5) mounted on the traverse trolley (3). The overhead crane monitoring system includes a panoramic camera (6) disposed at one end portion of the travelling body (2). The panoramic camera (6) records an image in an overlooking posture. The image recorded by the panoramic camera (6) is displayed on a wide display (21) installed in a remote operation room. This enables providing an operator with an image appropriate for remotely operating the overhead crane (1).
