For an example of telescopic system, see Figure 5. SIST EN 16851:2017

Key 1 lifting device 2 telescopic crane bridge 3 crane bridge Figure 5 — Telescopic system 5.4.9 Trolleys Trolleys shall incorporate features to prevent unintentional derailment, accidental fall or climbing on the rail. This requirement can be fulfilled by the use of devices such as guide rollers and / or wheel flanges. The trolley shall be prevented from falling or overturning in the event of a single-wheel failure. 5.4.10 End stops and motion limiters Any motion that has a designed restriction of movement and those motions that have a restriction shall be provided with motion limiters. A motion limiter can be, for example, an electrical switch or a mechanical end stop. End stops shall be capable of stopping the movement from the maximum speed without overloading the crane. The ends of bridges and tracks shall be equipped with mechanical end stops. End stops of the parallel runways for crane or track shall be aligned.
