Abstract
The invention relates to an arrangement for installing cables on outer surfaces of crane structures (1), the arrangement comprising means (9) for routing and fastening cables to said surfaces. These means consist of T profiles (9) fastened at the stem part (10) of the T profile to the outer surface (1) of the crane structure, the upper part (11) of the T profile on top of and transverse to the stem part of the T profile being at a distance from the surface of the crane and substantially parallel to this surface, whereby the T profile together with the surface of the crane provide cable conduits (12) for the cables, which are open from the sides.
Claims15
An arrangement for installing cables on outer surfaces of crane structures, the arrangement comprising:
- T profiles configured to route cables to at least one outer surface of said outer surfaces, each T profile including a stem part and an upper part formed as a continuously extending member in a longitudinal direction, each upper part extending greater in the longitudinal direction than in a lateral direction, each T profile having a plurality of slots or perforations formed in the upper part, each of the slots or perforations extending greater in the lateral direction than in the longitudinal direction such that the lateral direction is arranged perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the continuous T profile, the plurality of slots or perforations being spaced from outer edges of the upper part,
- wherein the T profiles are fastened at the stem part of the T profile to the at least one outer surface of the crane structure, the upper part of the T profile on top of and transverse to the stem part of the T profile being at a distance from the at least one outer surface of the crane and substantially parallel to the at least one outer surface, whereby the T profile together with the at least one outer surface of the crane provide cable conduits for the cables, which are open from the sides.
