[0002] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the semi-circular main girder quay crane is a device that uses a trolley to travel back and forth on a track on the semi-circular main girder 1, and uses a spreader 2 to load and unload containers 3 from a dock or ship. In order to maintain a certain preload on the lifting wire rope and not interfere with the semi-circular main girder 1, the tail of the semi-circular main girder 1 needs to extend out like wings to the left and right to connect with the crossbeams 4. Then, a hanging mechanism 5 is arranged on the connecting crossbeams 4.
