Abstract
There is provided a crane including: a telescopic boom having an inner boom element and an outer boom element; a telescoping actuator that displaces the inner boom element or the outer boom element in the telescoping direction; a first coupling member that releasably couples the telescoping actuator to one of the boom elements; a second coupling member that releasably couples the pair of boom elements to each other; an electric drive source provided at the telescoping actuator; a first coupling mechanism that displaces the first coupling member or the second coupling member on the basis of motive power of the electric drive source, thereby switching a coupled state and a non-coupled state of the members that are releasably coupled by one of the coupling members; and a position information detection device that detects information relating to the position of one of the coupling members on the basis of output from the electric drive source.
