Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/100592
Kind Code:
A8
Abstract:
There is proposed a method and a system for steering the wheel assemblies of a gantry crane (12), for the purpose of: b) beginning the steering of at least one wheel assembly in the desired direction; b) setting the angular position of a moveable pointer indicating a theoretical position of said wheel assembly which is consistent with said desired direction; c) iterating the steps that consist of: - setting an increment value of said moveable pointer in a direction consistent with respect to the steering movement of said wheel assembly; - calculating the angular difference between the angular position of the moveable pointer and the current position of the wheel assembly; - increasing the increment value of said moveable pointer if said difference shows a decrease, or decreasing the increment value of said moveable pointer if said difference shows an increase.
