A container terminal automated rail transport system and operating method

Abstract

The invention discloses an automated rail transportation system and an operation method for a container terminal, comprising at least one shore side rail parallel to the shore side, at least one group of surrounding rails arranged around the container yard, and at least one evacuation track located behind the yard. A track, at least one track shuttle, and a plurality of transfer tracks, and between the shore-side track and the surrounding track, between the surrounding track and the distribution track, between the surrounding track and the surrounding track, between adjacent shore-side tracks, adjacent The transportation rails are connected by transfer rails; the rail shuttle has a container placement platform, which can travel along the rails, and is also equipped with a control device to receive and transmit wireless command signals to control the start, stop, and speed modes of the rail shuttle. , and the direction mode, the direction mode includes a forward mode and a reverse mode; the track shuttle changes the running track by changing the direction mode. The technical scheme of the invention can realize high-efficiency automatic rail transportation of containers, has simple transportation, wide application range and high work efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of container loading and unloading at a container terminal, in particular to an automatic rail transport system and an operation method for a container terminal. Background technique [0002] At present, the degree of automation of container terminals has been greatly improved, but there are still some deficiencies, mainly: [0003] 1) The traffic of the group of automated means of transportation is complicated, and the efficiency of horizontal transportation is low; [0004] 2) The gantry crane needs to run the hanging box for a long distance, which affects the loading and unloading efficiency of the yard; [0005] 3) The layout of the storage yard needs to be perpendicular to the shore, and it is very difficult to transform the existing artificial wharf. [0006] Refer to the Chinese patent "Shuttle carrier system for container terminal and method for transporting container thereof" whose patent number i...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] 1) The traffic of the group of automated means of transportation is complicated, and the efficiency of horizontal transportation is low;

[0004] 2) The gantry crane needs to run the hanging box for a long distance, which affects the loading and unloading efficiency of the yard;

[0005] 3) The storage yard layout needs to be perpendicular to the shore, and it is very difficult to transform the existing artificial wharf

[0007] The patent utilizes the shuttle car technology to realize the relay transportation of containers and automatic loading and unloading of containers. The use of rail trolleys instead of yard cranes for long-distance travel can increase the speed of container transportation at the terminal, but the traffic tracks are disconnected and can only be transported at both ends. To travel, it is necessary to use other equipment to transfer the container from one rail shuttle car to another rail shuttle car, and there must be a shuttle car on each track, which increases the cost
