Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of port operations, and in particular to an operation system and an operation method for gantry crane bulk cargo operations. Background Art

[0002] Currently, bulk cargo handling at ports primarily relies on gantry cranes equipped with specialized grab buckets. Typically, cargo is transported to the dock by port trucks, where it is dumped onto the dockside by the trucks, where it is then handled by grab buckets. During this operation, the cargo is easily broken by the grab buckets' gripping and squeezing, and by the loading and unloading equipment's crushing. Therefore, bulk cargoes such as fertilizers and grains cannot be handled using this method due to their fragility and potential contamination. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: during the operation, a plurality of bulk cargo containers are pulled to a designated location for dock operations by using a transfer vehicle, and at the same time, a gantry crane uses a lifting device to sequentially lift the bulk cargo containers on the transfer vehicle to designated loading locations in the ship's hold, and then open the sealing plate at the bottom of the bulk cargo container, so that the cargo in the bulk cargo container is released to complete the loading operation;

[0007] After the bulk cargo is emptied, the gantry crane places the bulk cargo box on a flat position at the dock, and the bulk cargo box automatically closes the sealing plate at the bottom under the influence of its own gravity.

[0008] The present invention provides a system for loading bulk cargo using a gantry crane, aiming to improve the loading efficiency of bulk cargo that cannot be directly grabbed by a grab bucket, achieve semi-automation, and facilitate operation.

[0009] On the basis of the above technical solution, the present invention can also be improved as follows.

[0010] Furthermore, each of the sealing plates includes a pair of door panels, one end of which is rotatably connected to the two ends of the open ends of the bottom of the bulk container, and the other ends of which can be rotated to fit together to seal the bottom of the bulk container.

[0011] The beneficial effect of adopting the above further solution is that the structure is simple, the sealing plate adopts a split structure, and the pair of door panels are flipped to open or close the bottom of the bulk container, so as to realize the bulk cargo loading operation, which is convenient and efficient.

[0012] Furthermore, the plurality of bulk containers are rectangular boxes, and each pair of door panels are rectangular plate-shaped structures.
