Crane assembly
This is the name of a part in the assembly for attaching a hub crane to a wind turbine. a google search for the entire term gets zero hits, but I have a diagram, and it looks like a t-shaped bracket with a few holes in it, suspended from the upper rail and attached to the end with a string. It looks like it can slide along the rail that it's hanging from. So, some kind of sliding, hanging thing... any ideas?

suspended infeed trolley
Probably this object is so new that it does not have a name.
Trolley is used for moving heavy things, on rails, usually called Laufkatze in the context of cranes:
Einhänge = suspended, as in Hängekatze = suspended trolley, see p.74 in Routledge German Dictionary of Construction) https://books.google.no/books?id=NZPhAQAAQBAJ&pg=PA74&lpg=PA...
"Vorschub" is about gradually feeding things into a machine. E.g. infeed table for Vorschubtisch. Vorschubwagen is used to feed logs into sawing machines, and is in this context called "traveller". One also sees "infeed carriers" for feeding unwieldy objects into a machine. These usually roll on wheels on the ground.
So either suspended infeed trolley or suspended infeed carrier describes the function.
