Title:
METHOD OF LOADING/UNLOADING CONTAINERS WITH A GANTRY CRANE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/052301
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The various aspect and embodiments relate to discharge of a container from a ship (100) on a first transport line and subsequently loading a container from an adjacent second transport line. Hence, the trolley (442) of a quay crane (150) moves with a container from ship (100) to shore, drops the container on the first line (412), picks up a container from the second line (422) and returns to the ship (100). The transport lines may comprise vehicles for transporting containers. While the container is being moved to the ship, a vehicle may move from the first transport line to the second transport line. Alternatively or additionally, loading and discharging may be executed intermittently from the first line and the second line, respectively.
