[0002] Water transport is an important part of modern logistics and trade. Container terminals are the hubs of water-land transport, the buffer zone for container cargo when switching transport modes, and the delivery point for cargo. Therefore, container terminals play an important role in the entire container transport process, and the improvement of their operating efficiency is the focus of attention of container terminal practitioners.

[0003] At present, the quay crane, also known as the container loading and unloading bridge or dock crane, is a key equipment in the container terminal. Its main function is to load and unload containers between the ship and the dock. The quay crane usually has a tall metal structure that can move along the dock's track and is equipped with a lifting device that can be raised and lowered and rotated. The lifting device is connected to the lifting device through a wire rope to grab, transport and release the container.

[0004] When the quay crane and the container truck are performing interactive unloading operations, the spreader will shake and deflect due to the flexible nature of the wire rope. At the same time, it is affected by unfavorable factors such as the operating skills of the quay crane operator and the parking error of the container truck driver. The quay crane operator needs to make multiple attempts to successfully complete the interactive unloading of the quay crane and the container truck. This results in a long interactive unloading time between the quay crane and the container truck, which has a great impact on the operating efficiency of the quay crane, and then affects the operating efficiency of the entire container terminal.
