The present invention relates to a container transportation ship. More particularly, the present invention relates to a container transportation ship for transporting containers, characterized in that a loading space in which at least one container is loaded and a loading/unloading space configured such that an external transfer means can directly enter/exit in order to load and unload the container, are delimited on the deck of the container transportation ship; and a crane is provided to move the container in the longitudinal direction of the container transportation ship, in the transverse direction thereof, and in the upward/downward direction thereof for the purpose of loading the container on the external transfer means that has entered the loading/unloading space or unloading the container from the external transfer means.

A container crane control system including: a camera configured to be fixedly mounted to a crane to obtain a series of captured images, a video output configured to provide a video signal including a series of cropped image based on the series of captured images; and a control device configured to, for at least part of the captured images and the respective cropped image, receive an input signal indicating a current height of a load of the crane, wherein the control device is configured to control a position of the respective cropped image within the captured image based on the current height of the load.

An alignment apparatus of a container configured to an alignment of a container smoothly by using a manual operation and an automatic operation together is provided. The alignment apparatus includes a first calculator performing calculation measuring a position of the container based on a detection result of a position sensor, a second calculator performing calculation measuring a target position based on the detection result of the position sensor, the target container being placed on the target position, a third calculator calculating and setting a first automatic operation region performing the automatic operation based on a position of the container and a second automatic operation region performing the automatic operation based on the target position, respectively, a first signal generating part detecting overlapping of the first automatic operation region and the second automatic operation region, and generating a first speed reference signal so as to coincide the position of the container with the target position, and a second signal generating part generating a second speed reference signal for moving the container based on a manual control signal generated by an operation of an operator.

A gantry crane for a container includes a portal main frame, a traveling mechanism, a translation mechanism, a hoisting mechanism and a spreader assembly. The spreader assembly includes a spreader body, two telescopic girders and a drive assembly. The drive assembly includes a cam, a sliding way and two sliding blocks. Two arc-shaped first sliding grooves are circumferentially provided on the cam. A middle of the sliding way is rotatably connected with the cam. Two sides of connection of the sliding way and the cam on the sliding way are provided with a second sliding groove. Each sliding block matches with the first and second sliding grooves, and can slide back and forth along them. The telescopic beams are slidably connected to the spreader body, and are symmetrically provided and connected to the sliding blocks, respectively.

A lifting gantry device for containers, in particular of the straddle carrier or sprinter carrier type, having four gantry supports spaced apart from one another and which by wheels of the lifting gantry device is floor-based and freely movable. A vehicle controller is provided such that the lifting gantry device can be controlled automatically. A sensor system is also provided and configured to determine sensor data on the surroundings of the lifting gantry device for automatically controlling the lifting gantry device. The sensor system comprises at least two, preferably four, sensor units for contactless object measurement and in particular object recognition, of which one sensor unit each is arranged on one of the four gantry supports and is configured to determine sensor data on the surroundings of the lifting gantry device for object measurement and in particular object recognition.

A system having a primary current generating assembly includes a primary thermal engine and a secondary current generating assembly, in particular an electric turbo compound installation, for the secondary conversion into electricity of exhaust gas heat from the primary current generating assembly. The secondary current generating assembly includes an exhaust gas turbine arranged in an exhaust gas stream of the primary thermal engine, and the exhaust gas turbine drives an electric secondary generator. In order to improve efficiency, and in particular to reduce fuel consumption, it is proposed that an exhaust gas cooler followed by a compressor are arranged in the exhaust gas stream downstream of the exhaust gas turbine, the compressor being driven by an electric motor and the rotational speeds of the compressor and the exhaust gas turbine are controlled by a process control system. The disclosed invention also relates to a vehicle equipped therewith.

The nuclear power generation system of the present invention comprises a reactor vessel. It further comprises a first crane gantry defining a fuel rod path along which nuclear fuel rods can be moved to/from the reactor vessel and a second crane gantry defining a component path along which reactor vessel components can be moved to/from the reactor vessel. The the first and second crane gantries both have a fixed radial orientation relative to the reactor vessel.

A gantry stacker having a spreader for containers and including a locating system arranged on the gantry stacker that determines a position of the gantry stacker. To permit a more precise receiving or depositing of containers in a predefined position in a container terminal, sensors are arranged on the gantry stacker, with the sensors and the locating system being connected to a control unit, and the control unit determines a position of the spreader, of a container to be received or of a deposit site from the position of the gantry stacker using the signals from the sensors.

A method for supporting remote control of a container crane, the container crane being configured to move containers from one location to another. The method is performed in a container crane control system, and includes the steps of: receiving work order information, each work order specifying a location of a container to be picked up and a destination of the container to be placed; obtaining a first video stream of images of a pick-up location; identifying the container to be picked up in the images of the first video stream; modifying the first video stream images, which includes highlighting the container to be picked up; and presenting the modified video stream of images on a display.

A cable winch arrangement (1) which includes at least one cable drum (2), which is mounted rotatably about a drum axis (3), for winding up and/or unwinding at least one cable (30-37), and a supporting structure (20), and a spindle drive (14) for displacing the cable drum (2) relative to the supporting structure (20), wherein the spindle drive (14) has a spindle (16) extending along a spindle axis (15), and a cable run-off point (6) of the at least one cable (30-37), at which the cable (30-37) runs tangentially onto and/or out from the cable drum (2), is at least substantially positionally fixed with respect to the supporting structure (20), and the spindle axis (15) is arranged coaxially with respect to the drum axis (3) of the cable drum (2).
