Airport ground support equipment includes: a support equipment body configured to come close to a stopped aircraft from a standby position and enable a person and/or an article to move between the support equipment body and the aircraft; an aircraft type determiner that captures an image of the aircraft when the support equipment body is at the standby position and that determines an aircraft type of the aircraft based on the captured image; a camera that is mounted to the support equipment body and captures an image of a nose gear of the aircraft stopped on an apron when the support equipment body is at the standby position; and a stop discrepancy calculator that detects a stop position of the nose gear based on the image captured by the camera and calculates a discrepancy from a regular stop position that is set in advance corresponding to the determined aircraft type.

A method for docking a boarding bridge with an aircraft, an electronic equipment and a storage medium are provided. The method includes: planning a path from a position at which a bridgehead is located when the boarding bridge is at a parking position to a pre-docking position which is 1 to 2 meters away from a cabin door of the aircraft, driving the boarding bridge to move the bridgehead towards the pre-docking position along the path until the bridgehead moves to a position within 2 meters away from the pre-docking position; acquiring an aircraft image of the aircraft, obtaining a spatial position of the cabin door according to the aircraft image, and moving the boarding bridge according to the spatial position to enable the bridgehead to dock with the cabin door.

A coupling module as an interface between an air passenger bridge or staircase and the aircraft fuselage has a cabin and a walkable swivel floor. At least the swivel floor is pivotably arranged about a pivot axis at the cabin to align the swivel floor at a door opening in an aircraft fuselage. The swivel floor has at least one front floor segment travelable with respect to a base body of the swivel floor in the direction of the aircraft fuselage.
