1. A base plate (1) with two anchor pins (26) serves as a foundation for
the crane.
3. Now add a short rod (4) and the solar engine (24) with engine shaft
(19) and a large sprocket wheel (11).
2. Mount a short rod (4) on the anchor pins, and insert two more
anchor pins (26) into the rod.
4. The next step is to add two short frames (3) with three anchor pins
(26).
The frame structure also makes it possible to lift
loads without banging them against the car or the
gear wheels. If the long rods holding the cord pulley
were to sit directly on the short frame in front, the
hook would always be hitting the assembly.
The drive machinery is held by four short frames. A
large frame mounted on one side serves to hold the
other frames steady. The technical way to say it is that
the large frame “reinforces” the construction. The
short rod holding the solar unit in the rear, as well
as the two cross-rods on the front framework, also
contribute significantly to the reinforcement of the
drive mount framework, and therefore to the crane as-
sembly as a whole.
