Description

Automatic storage yard of container terminal

Technical Field

The invention belongs to the technical field of container terminal construction, and particularly relates to a yard design in a container terminal.

Background

The container yard, also called a station, is a unified collection of containers before being shipped, and is used for loading, unloading, transferring, storing and delivering heavy containers or empty containers, and plays a very important role in container transportation. For a large container terminal, the container yard is divided into a plurality of mutually independent sub-yards for convenient storage and management due to the large number of containers to be stored, and a track crane is uniformly distributed in each sub-yard and used for stacking the containers in the sub-yards and carrying and storing the containers.

Existing container terminals are typically deployed in a direction parallel to the coastline when deployed in yard areas. That is, the length extension direction of each sub-yard is parallel to the coastline. For the off-site transportation vehicles responsible for extracting and storing containers and the on-site transportation vehicles responsible for loading and unloading, when the containers are extracted from a storage yard or stored, the walking routes of the two vehicles are crossed, so that the congestion is easily caused, the operation flow is interrupted, and the operation efficiency is influenced.

In addition, when an off-site transport vehicle needs to enter a yard to extract or store containers, related information such as a sub-yard number and a stacking position of the containers must be acquired through a dock gate, and most of the information is issued by a dock worker when the off-site transport vehicle passes through the dock gate in the form of a ticket. The driver drives the truck to the sub-yard with the appointed number according to the information on the ticket, and the sub-yard rail crane driver extracts the container from the appointed position according to the container stacking position on the ticket and lifts the container onto the off-site transport vehicle to finish the box taking operation, or lifts the container carried on the off-site transport vehicle and stores the container into the appointed position of the yard to finish the box storing operation. The manual operation mode has low efficiency, is easy to make mistakes and has great personal safety hidden trouble.

Detailed Description

The following describes the embodiments of the present invention in further detail with reference to the drawings.

In order to improve the intelligent level of the container terminal and realize full-automatic control of container carrying, storage, loading and unloading operations, four functional areas are distributed in the container terminal in the embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, the following steps are sequentially carried out from the direction of Liu Cexiang sea sides: gate, container yard 300, in-field transport vehicle operating area 400, and bridge crane operating area 500.

The gate is used as an entrance and exit portal of the whole container terminal and is used for determining whether to allow the off-site transportation vehicle to enter the yard or leave the yard, and particularly, the gate can be divided into an entrance gate 100 and an exit gate 200. The entrance gate 100 is used as an entrance of the whole container terminal, and is used for verifying the legality of the entrance vehicles and containers, so that the vehicles or containers with problems are prevented from entering the yard, and the security of the yard is prevented from being affected. For vehicles and containers verified as legal, a driver of an entering vehicle can acquire a yard field position where the driver needs to travel after entering a yard at the entrance gate 100, and the driver can travel to the yard field position to carry out suitcase or storage operation after driving the vehicle through the entrance gate 100. The departure gate 200 is used as an exit of the whole container terminal for verifying the legitimacy of the departure vehicles and the containers, and deciding whether to let the departure vehicles pass or prohibit the departure vehicles from the yard according to the verification result, so as to prevent the vehicles from transporting the containers which are not allowed to leave the yard, and ensure the safety of the storage of the containers in the field.

In order to solve the problems of low traffic efficiency and easy congestion of the existing one-stop gate, the embodiment provides a design idea of a three-stop gate for a gate system of a container terminal, as shown in fig. 1. Namely, the entrance gate 100 and the exit gate 200 of the container terminal are equally divided into three gates, which are defined as follows in order according to the traveling direction of the vehicle: a first station gate, a second station gate, and a third station gate. For clarity, the three gate ports defining the entrance of this embodiment are respectively: an entry first station gate 110, an entry second station gate 120, an entry third station gate 130; the three gate ports defining the field are respectively: an outbound first station gate 210, an outbound second station gate 220, and an outbound third station gate 230. The gate ports of each station are mutually separated and independently designed and are responsible for collecting and processing different information.

The specific structural design of each station gate and its workflow will be described in detail with reference to fig. 2 to 7.

In this embodiment, the first entrance gate 110 and the first exit gate 210 may be constructed by adopting the same or substantially the same structural design, and are responsible for collecting information such as a physical license plate number, a container number, a box shape, and a number of boxes of an entrance vehicle (for the first entrance gate 110) or an exit vehicle (for the first exit gate 210), and sending the information to a background system to retrieve relevant information corresponding to the vehicle stored in the background system. That is, before the off-site transport vehicle enters the gate 100 or 200, information about the off-site transport vehicle, including information about containers carried on the off-site transport vehicle, is already entered into the dock's backend system, and the job of the on-site gate 100 is to identify whether the on-site transport vehicle and containers are consistent with information stored in the backend system, so as to intercept the problematic off-site transport vehicle and containers and avoid the problematic vehicle from driving into the dock's container yard 300. The job task of the departure gate 200 is to identify whether a vehicle waiting for departure or a container on the vehicle is consistent with information stored by the backend system to intercept the problematic off-site transport vehicle and container and avoid the problem of the vehicle exiting the container yard 300 at the dock.

The present embodiment is illustrated by taking the first station gate 110 as an example, as shown in fig. 2.

In order to improve the traffic capacity of the gate, the present embodiment preferably arranges a plurality of parallel gates at the first station gate 110 for allowing a plurality of off-site transportation vehicles to pass through in parallel. At each crossing of the first station gate 110, a vehicle sensing door 111, a height and width limiting door 112, a signal lamp 113, an electronic stop lever 114, an information collecting device 115, and the like may be provided, respectively. The vehicle sensing door 111 is used for sensing whether a vehicle enters the first station gate 110, so that sensing devices on the information acquisition device 115 and the height and width limiting door 112 can be controlled to start running only when the vehicle enters the gate, and the system power consumption is reduced. The height and width limiting doors 112 are used to limit the height and width of containers carried on the vehicle to prevent ultra-tall or ultra-wide containers from entering the field. The signal lamp 113 is used for indicating whether the vehicle is allowed to pass or not, and displaying a red light in a default state, and prohibiting the vehicle from passing. The electronic stop lever 114 is preferably disposed behind the height and width limiting door 112 and defaults to a dropped lever state preventing incomplete information collection and passage of an ultra-high or ultra-wide vehicle. The information acquisition equipment arranged at the first entrance gate 110 is mainly used for acquiring information such as physical license plates of entrance vehicles, box numbers of entrance containers, box shapes, number of box bodies, positions of the box bodies on a tray, door orientations, existence of damage to the box bodies and the like, and transmitting the acquired information to a background system. The background system can call out a related information list corresponding to the vehicle according to the acquired physical license plate number or the container number, compares the information such as the physical license plate number, the container type, the container number and the like, and supplements the acquired information such as the position of the container on the tray, the orientation of the container door, the existence of damage of the container and the like into the list.

In this embodiment, the information collection of the entrance vehicle and the container is preferably completed by adopting a mode of combining the photographing of the gate camera and the background image recognition. That is, the present embodiment employs a camera as the information collection device 115, is installed at the entrance first station gate 110, preferably at the height and width limiting gate 112 of each gate, so as to take the entrance vehicles and containers from a plurality of angles, and transmits the photographs to the background system, and extracts information such as the physical license plate number of the entrance vehicles, the number of the entrance containers, the box shape, the number of the boxes, the positions of the boxes on the tray, the orientation of the gate, the presence or absence of damage to the boxes, etc. from the taken photographs using the mature image recognition technology, for later verification work of the entrance vehicles and the containers.

The operation flow of entering the first station portal 110 is specifically described below with reference to fig. 3.

When an off-site transport vehicle (which may be an empty vehicle ready to enter a tote or a heavy vehicle carrying a container ready to enter a storage tote) arrives at the dock, it first needs to pass through the first landing gate 110.

When the vehicle sensing door 111 in the first station gate 110 senses that a vehicle passes, the camera 115 and the sensing device on the height and width limiting door 112 are activated to power up. The camera 115 photographs the incoming vehicle and the container (for heavy vehicles) and sends the photographed photographs to the background system in time.

When the off-site transportation vehicle passes through the height and width limiting door 112, if collision occurs, the vehicle is considered abnormal, an overrun warning signal is generated and sent to a background system, a signal lamp 113 is controlled to be lighted in a red light mode, and an electronic stop lever 114 keeps a falling rod state to prevent the vehicle from passing through. At the same time, the sensing device on the height and width limiting door 112 sends out a system alarm prompt to inform the operator to manually process the vehicle. After the treatment is finished, the electronic stop lever 114 can be manually controlled to rise, the signal lamp 113 is turned on by a green light, and the roadway is restored to use.

If the off-site transportation vehicle does not collide when passing through the height and width limiting door 112, the background system performs image recognition on the photo uploaded by the camera 115, and extracts information such as the physical license plate number of the vehicle, the container number, the number of boxes, the position of the boxes on the tray, the orientation of the door, whether the boxes are damaged or not, and the like. If the extracted information does not reach the standard, the information can be fed in a manual processing mode; if the extracted information meets the standard, automatically judging whether the off-site transport vehicle is provided with a box or not through a background system, and if the off-site transport vehicle is not provided with the box, manually supplementing information is not needed; if the container is provided with the box, firstly judging whether the container is a conventional container, and if the container is the conventional container, automatically supplementing information by a background system; if the container carried by the off-site transport vehicle is a special container body, such as a container with an electronic lead seal, a frame box, an OT box, an external unit cold box, a TK box and the like, entering an information acquisition flow corresponding to the container body, waiting for manual processing and supplementing related information.

After the information acquisition is finished, the electronic stop lever 114 is automatically controlled to rise, the signal lamp 113 is turned on by a green light, and the vehicle is released.

During the period that the off-site transportation vehicle drives from the first station gate 110 to the second station gate 120, the background system searches the stored information list according to the physical license plate number of the extracted vehicle or the box number of the container, finds the corresponding related information list of the vehicle, compares the information such as the physical license plate number, the box type, the box number and the like in the information list, if the information is matched with the information, further judges whether the box is damaged, if the box is good, the preliminary verification (first station verification) is passed, and the information such as the position of the collected box on the tray, the box door orientation and the like is supplemented into the corresponding related information list of the vehicle. If the box body is damaged or the information comparison result is not completely consistent, the abnormal vehicle is directly judged, the first station verification is completed, and when the vehicle enters the second station gate 120, the vehicle is guided to enter a buffer area, and the manual inspection is waited.

In this embodiment, in order to shorten the time for the vehicle to pass through the gate as much as possible, it is preferable to design the distance D Σt between the first entrance gate 110 and the second entrance gate 120. Where S is the highest speed per hour allowed for the vehicle to travel between the first entry gate 110 and the second entry gate 120, and this embodiment is preferably set to 30 km/h; t is the time required for the backend system to complete the first station verification based on the information collected at the entry first station portal 110. By adopting the design mode, the background system can fully utilize the period of time that the vehicle runs between two gate ports to complete the comparison and verification of the acquired information, and when the vehicle arrives at the second gate port 120 for entering, the first station verification result is generated, so that the time that the vehicle waits for verification at the second gate port 120 for entering can be shortened.

In this embodiment, the structural design and information collection process flow of the outbound first station gate 210 may be the same as those of the inbound first station gate 110. That is, a vehicle sensing door, a height and width limiting door, a signal lamp, an electronic stop lever, an information acquisition device and the like can be respectively arranged at each crossing of the first station gate 210 to complete information acquisition work of the outgoing vehicle and the container. Of course, the information collection and processing flows may be slightly different, for example, the first station gate 210 may collect only the information of the physical license plate number of the exiting vehicle, the box number of the container, the box type, the number of the boxes, etc., and send the information to the background system for comparison, so as to complete the preliminary verification, without collecting the information of the position of the box on the tray, the direction of the box door, whether the box is damaged, etc., thereby further improving the passing efficiency of the exiting gate 200.

Similarly, it is preferable to design the distance between the outbound first station gate 210 and the outbound second station gate 220 to be D.gtoreq.s.t. The background system can make full use of the time that the vehicle travels between the outbound first station gate 210 and the outbound second station gate 220 to complete the comparison and verification of the acquired information. When the vehicle arrives at the outbound second station gate 220, the first station verification result has been generated, whereby the time for the vehicle to wait for verification at the outbound second station gate 220 can be shortened.

In this embodiment, the second entrance gate 120 and the second exit gate 220 may be constructed by the same or substantially the same structural design, and are responsible for collecting the electronic license plate number, driver identity information, weight information of the vehicle, etc. of the entering vehicle (for the second entrance gate 120) or the exiting vehicle (for the second exit gate 220), and transmitting the collected information to the background system. The background system uses the relevant information list corresponding to the vehicle which is called out in the first station gate processing flow to verify the legitimacy of the identity of the vehicle and the driver, verifies whether the weight of the container carried by the vehicle is abnormal or not according to the container weight information recorded in the relevant information list, generates destination information according to the verification result, and sends the destination information to the entrance second station gate 120 or the exit second station gate 220 so as to guide the driving direction of the driver.

This embodiment is illustrated by way of example as entering the second station portal 120, as shown in fig. 4.

In order to improve the traffic capacity of the gate, the present embodiment preferably arranges a plurality of parallel gates at the second station gate 120 for allowing a plurality of off-site transportation vehicles to pass through in parallel. A card reader 121 (e.g., an RFID card reader and an identification card reader), a wagon balance 122, a signal lamp 123, an electronic bar 124, etc. may be provided at each crossing. The RFID reader and the id card reader 121 may be mounted on a carrier for respectively collecting electronic license plate number and driver identity information of the vehicle. The wagon balance 122 is installed on the road surface of each road junction, and is used for sensing the weight of the vehicle when the vehicle enters a gate, and judging whether the entering vehicle is an empty vehicle or a heavy vehicle according to the weight. If the vehicle is a heavy vehicle carrying a container, the weight of the container can be indirectly calculated according to the sensed weight of the vehicle for later information comparison. The signal lamp 123 is used for indicating whether the vehicle is allowed to pass or not, and displaying a red light in a default state, and prohibiting the vehicle from passing. The electronic bar 124 defaults to a dropped bar state, and only after the background system feeds back destination information, the electronic bar 124 lifts, allowing the vehicle to pass.

The operation flow of entering the second station portal 120 is specifically described below with reference to fig. 5.

When an off-site transport vehicle passes through the entry first station gate 110 to the entry second station gate 120, the vehicle travels to a wagon balance 122 to stop. The RFID card reader and the identity card reader 121 are arranged beside the wagon balance 122, a driver is prompted to show the electronic license plate and the identity card, and the electronic license plate and the identity card are respectively close to the RFID card reader and the identity card reader 121 so as to read the electronic license plate number and the identity information of the driver, and the electronic license plate number and the identity information of the driver are uploaded to a background system.

When the driver swipes the identity card, the card swiping operation can be performed according to the screen prompt, the system can give the opportunity of swiping the card twice, and if the card swiping is unsuccessful for two times, the identity information is set to be a null value. For drivers without an identity card, the 'no identity card' can be input according to the screen prompt, so that the identity information is set to be null.

And similarly, acquiring the electronic license plate number in the electronic license plate by using the RFID card reader, and setting the electronic license plate number as a null value if acquisition fails.

The background system, upon receiving the electronic license plate number or driver identity information with the result of "null", may require the staff entering the second station gate 120 to manually identify the electronic license plate number and driver identity information of the vehicle and enter the system.

After the electronic license plate number and the driver identity information are acquired, the background system calculates the weight of the container according to the weight acquired by the wagon balance 122, compares the electronic license plate number, the driver identity information and the weight of the container with related data stored in a related information list corresponding to the vehicle which is previously adjusted and taken out, and if the electronic license plate number, the driver identity information and the weight of the container are consistent, passes verification; if not, the verification fails. In this embodiment, if the vehicle is not authenticated by the first station at the first station gate 110, whether or not the vehicle is authenticated at the second station gate 120 is determined to be a problem vehicle, and a final result of failure in authentication is generated.

For the problem vehicle with verification failure, the background system sets the destination information as a buffer area and sends the buffer area to the second entrance gate 120, and on one hand, the destination information is displayed through a display screen arranged in the second entrance gate 120; on the other hand, tickets written with the "buffer" words are printed out by a printer arranged in the entrance second station gate 120 and provided to the driver to instruct the driver to drive the vehicle into the buffer, waiting for manual processing.

And for the normal vehicle passing the verification, the background system enters a box collection or box lifting business verification process according to whether the vehicle is empty or heavy. Specifically, when the vehicle entering the entrance gate 100 is empty, a suitcase business check process is performed, and the location of the container in the container yard is called to instruct the driver to drive the vehicle to the yard and lift the required container; when the vehicle entering the entrance gate 100 is a heavy vehicle, a box-collecting (box-storing) business check process is performed, and the location of the field where the container is stored in the container yard 300 is called to guide the driver to drive the vehicle to the field so that the track crane of the field can lift the container on the vehicle and park to a designated location (stacking location) in the container yard 300.

The background system takes the adjusted field position (the number of the sub-yard) as destination information and sends the destination information to the second station gate 120 for entering the yard, and on one hand, the destination information is displayed through a display screen; on the other hand, a ticket written with a "field position" is printed by a printer and provided to the driver to instruct the driver to drive the vehicle to which sub-yard.

Of course, the background system can also directly send the destination information to the mobile phone of the driver to indicate the driving direction of the driver. The mobile phone number of the driver can be collected in the driver identity information collection stage.

After the driver acquires the destination information, the signal lamp 123 lights up green, and the electronic stop lever 124 is automatically lifted, allowing the vehicle to pass.

In this embodiment, the structural design and information collection process flow of the outbound second station gate 220 may be the same as that of the inbound second station gate 120. That is, a card reader, a wagon balance, a signal lamp, an electronic bar, and the like may be provided for each crossing of the exit second station gate 220. Of course, there may be a slight difference in the information acquisition and processing flows. For example, the background system judges whether the vehicle is empty or heavy according to the weight collected by the wagon balance, if the vehicle is heavy, the weight of the container is further calculated, the weight is compared with the weight data of the container in the stored related information list, if the verification is passed, a pass word is fed back, and a driver is indicated to drive to the third station gate 230; if the verification fails, the word of the buffer zone is fed back, and a driver is indicated to drive to the buffer zone to wait for manual processing.

The present embodiment establishes a buffer 140 for parking the problem vehicle between the entrance second station gate 120 and the entrance third station gate 130, as shown in fig. 1. The buffer 140 is set up at a position deviated from the main traffic lane, a manual service station may be set up in the buffer 140, and the problem vehicle may receive manual processing in the buffer 140. The vehicle without the problem can continue to pass through the gate of the third station, and the vehicle without the problem is not allowed to enter and exit the container yard, so that the safety of container storage in the yard is improved.

In this embodiment, the third station gate 130 and the third station gate 230 may be configured by the same or substantially the same structural design, and are responsible for passing the verified vehicles and intercepting the non-verified vehicles.

This embodiment is illustrated by way of example as entering the third station gate 130, as shown in fig. 6.

In order to improve the traffic capacity of the gate, the present embodiment preferably arranges a plurality of parallel gates at the third station gate 130 for allowing a plurality of off-site transportation vehicles to pass through in parallel. An RFID reader 132, a signal lamp 133, an electronic bar 134, and optionally a vehicle sensing door 131 may be provided at each crossing.

When a vehicle enters the entrance third station gate 130, it first passes through the vehicle sensing door 131. When the vehicle sensing door 131 senses that a vehicle passes by, the RFID card reader 132 is started to collect electronic license plate information. The signal lamp 133 is used to indicate whether the vehicle is allowed to pass or not, and to display a red light by default, prohibiting the vehicle from passing. The electronic bar 134 defaults to a down state, and the electronic bar 134 lifts only when the background system feeds back an admission command (for the entry third station gate 130) or a release command (for the exit third station gate 230), allowing the vehicle to pass.

The operation flow of entering the third station gate 130 is specifically described below with reference to fig. 7.

When the vehicle enters the third station gate 130, the driver is asked to present the electronic license plate and access the RFID reader 132 to read the electronic license plate number of the vehicle and send a command to the backend system to invoke whether access is authorized.

Of course, the identity card reader and the interphone may be simultaneously installed at the third station gate 130. When the RFID card reader 132 is unsuccessful, the driver may be required to present the identification card and access the identification card reader, by collecting the identification information of the driver, and sending the information to the backend system to invoke the command of whether to access. If the driver does not have the identity card, the driver can communicate with the staff through the interphone to confirm whether the vehicle is admitted or not. If the vehicle is admitted, the electronic stop lever 134 is manually opened to release the vehicle; if disabled, an alarm prompt is triggered informing the security guard to send the vehicle to the buffer 140.

If the background system calls out that the verification result of the vehicle is 'admittance' according to the acquired electronic license plate number or driver identity information, an admittance instruction is sent to the third station gate 130; if the verification result of the vehicle is "forbidden", a forbidden instruction is sent to the third station gate 130.

When receiving the admission command, the admission third station gate 130 controls the green light of the signal lamp 133 to be turned on, the electronic stop lever 13 is lifted, and the vehicle is let go and enters the container yard 300. When the forbidden command is received, the red light of the control signal lamp 133 is turned on, the falling state of the electronic stop lever 134 is kept, the vehicles are forbidden to enter the container yard 300, an alarm prompt is started, and the security guard is informed to send the vehicles to the buffer area 140 to wait for manual processing.

In this embodiment, the structural design and information collection process flow of the outbound third station gate 230 may be the same as that of the inbound third station gate 130. That is, a vehicle sensing door, an RFID reader, a signal lamp, an electronic bar, and the like may be provided for each crossing of the exit third station gate 230. When the outgoing vehicle passes the verification, the backend system sends a release instruction to the outgoing third station gate 230, lifting the electronic bar, allowing the vehicle to travel off the yard. If the outbound vehicle fails verification, the backend system sends a forbidden command to the outbound third station gate 230, keeps the electronic stop lever in a falling state, forbidden to leave the yard, starts an alarm prompt, and informs the security personnel to send the vehicle to the buffer zone 140 for waiting for manual processing.

According to the embodiment, the entrance gate 100 and the exit gate 200 of the container terminal are designed to be three-station gates, so that compared with a traditional one-station gate, the traffic efficiency is higher, the probability of gate congestion is lower, and the important effect can be achieved on improving the logistics operation efficiency of the whole container terminal.

After passing through the entrance gate 100, the off-site transport vehicle travels to the container yard 300 and reaches the corresponding sub-yard according to the acquired yard field location.

As shown in fig. 1, the container yard 300 of the present embodiment includes a plurality of sub-yards 301 arranged parallel to each other, and each sub-yard 301 is perpendicular to the coastline 600. In this embodiment, each sub-yard 301 is divided into three areas, and the extending directions from the land side to the sea side are as follows: land-side interaction area 310, stacking operation area 320, sea-side interaction area 330. In each sub-yard 301 there is provided an independently running rail crane 321, 322, as shown in connection with fig. 8. The rail cranes 321, 322 cross the sub-yard 301 in the width direction, walk back and forth along the length direction (the direction perpendicular to the coastline 600) of the sub-yard 301, and carry out the operations of carrying, depositing and stacking on the containers. The present embodiment contemplates that the entrance gate 100 and the exit gate 200 are located on the same side of the land-side interaction zone 310 and are spaced apart left and right. A traffic lane 700 is laid between the land-side interaction zone 310 and the gates 100, 200 for off-board vehicles to travel. After passing through the entrance gate 100, the off-site transport vehicle travels along the traffic lane 700, reaches the land-side interaction area 310 of the designated sub-yard, and performs a suitcase or a storage operation in cooperation with the rail crane 321 of the sub-yard. After the tote or storage operation is completed, the off-site transport vehicle travels along the roadway 700, reaches the departure gate 200, and exits the dock via the departure gate 200. Because the off-site transport vehicle only runs in the area of the entrance gate 100, the exit gate 200 and the land side interaction area 310 and is far away from the on-site transport vehicle running area 400, the off-site transport vehicle cannot meet the on-site transport vehicle, so that the problems of road congestion, forced interruption of the operation flow and the like which are easily caused by the intersection of two vehicle running routes can be well solved, and the overall operation efficiency of the wharf is improved. The sea-side interaction area 330 and the land-side interaction area 310 of each sub-yard 301 are designed to be disposed at opposite ends of the stacking operation area 320, and the sea-side interaction area 330 is adjacent to the in-situ transfer vehicle operation area 400 for interaction of the track crane 322 with the in-situ transfer vehicle to cooperatively perform loading and unloading tasks of the container.

As a preferred design of the present embodiment, the present embodiment preferably provides two rail cranes 321, 322 in each sub-yard 301, as shown in fig. 8. The two rail cranes 321, 322 travel on the same rail 323, the rail 323 extends from the outer end 311 of the land-side interaction area 310 to the outer end 331 of the sea-side interaction area 330, and the outer ends 311, 331 are the ends of the land-side interaction area 310 and the sea-side interaction area 330 away from the stacking operation area 320, and are shown in connection with fig. 9 and 10. Wherein, the track crane adjacent to the land side interaction area 310 is defined as a land side track crane 321, and the track crane adjacent to the sea side interaction area 330 is defined as a sea side track crane 322. Land-side rail-mounted cranes 321 operate in land-side interaction area 310 and stacking work area 320 for carrying out tote and bin storage works in cooperation with off-site transport vehicles. The sea side rail crane 322 operates in the sea side interaction area 330 and the stacking work area 320 for carrying out loading and unloading works in cooperation with in-situ transfer vehicles.

When the land-side rail crane 321 fails, the land-side rail crane 321 can be stopped at the outer end 311 of the land-side interaction zone 310, and at this time, the background system can control the sea-side rail crane 322 to walk in the whole sub-yard 301 to perform full-yard operation. When the sea side rail crane 322 fails, the sea side rail crane 322 can be stopped at the outer end 331 of the sea side interaction area 330, and at the moment, the background system can control the land side rail crane 321 to walk in the whole sub-yard 301 to execute full-yard operation. The design mode of the double-track crane can ensure continuity of wharf operation to a great extent, and the field walking distance of each track crane 321, 322 can be shortened by half, thereby being beneficial to improving the operation efficiency.

The specific construction of land-side interaction area 310 and the suitcase and inventory workflow are described in detail below in conjunction with fig. 9.

In this embodiment, at least one lane 312 for the off-site transport vehicle 1 to stop is provided in the land-side interaction area 310 of each sub-yard 301, and the case of five lanes 312 is shown in fig. 9. An interactive kiosk 313 is provided on one side of each lane 312, the interactive kiosk 313 having a ceiling, and a card reader 314, a display screen and start and stop buttons 315 are installed in the interactive kiosk 313. When the off-site transport vehicle 1 travels to a designated lane 312 of a designated sub-yard according to the yard site location it receives while passing through the entry gate 100, the driver gets off the vehicle to enter an interactive kiosk 313, presents an electronic license plate and approaches a card reader 314. The card reader 314 reads the electronic license plate number from the electronic license plate and sends it to the backend system. The background system receives the electronic license plate number, then calls out the information corresponding to the electronic license plate number, and then verifies whether the sub-yard where the interaction pavilion 313 (each interaction pavilion 313 and the card reader 314 in the interaction pavilion 313 correspond to unique codes) is consistent with the yard field position corresponding to the electronic license plate number; if the information is inconsistent, the off-site transport vehicle is not considered to enter a correct storage yard, at the moment, the background system sends error information to the interaction pavilion 313, and the error information is fed back to a driver of the off-site transport vehicle through a display screen in the interaction pavilion 313 to remind the driver of the off-site transport vehicle of the destination error; if the task types and the stacking positions of the containers in the stacking operation area are consistent, the background system calls the task types and the stacking positions of the containers in the stacking operation area and sends the task types and the stacking positions to the land-side track crane 321. When receiving the suitcase task, the land-side track crane 321 extracts the container from the stacking operation area 320 according to the received stacking position, and moves to the junction position of the stacking operation area 320 and the land-side interaction area 310 in parallel to wait until the start-stop button 315 is pressed. To ensure that the driver remains in the interaction kiosk 313 throughout the operation of the track crane in the land-side interaction zone 310, avoiding the risk of personal safety for the driver, the present embodiment preferably provides a start-stop button 315 in the interaction kiosk 313 that has no hold function. When the driver presses the start-stop button 315, the land-side rail crane 321 enters the land-side interaction zone 310, lifts the container extracted by the land-side rail crane onto the off-site transport vehicle 1, and returns to the stacking operation zone 320 to complete the suitcase operation. If the land side track crane 321 receives the box storage task, the land side track crane 321 moves to the junction position of the stacking operation area 320 and the land side interaction area 310 for waiting until the driver presses the start-stop button 315, the land side track crane 321 enters the land side interaction area 310, grabs the collector 2 from the off-site transport vehicle 1, returns to the stacking operation area 320, and parks to the designated stacking position to finish the box storage operation. During operation of land-side interaction zone 310, land-side track lift 321 indicates that the driver is likely to leave interaction kiosk 313 if start-stop button 315 is raised. At this time, in order to ensure personal safety of the driver, the land-side rail crane 321 is designed to stop in place when the start-stop button 315 is lifted, so as to prevent the hanger 325 or the lifted container 2 from hitting the driver.

The specific construction of the sea-side interaction zone 330 and the process of loading and unloading the ship will be described in detail with reference to fig. 10.

In this embodiment, at least one bracket interaction lane 332 is respectively disposed in the sea side interaction area 330 of each sub-yard 301, and fig. 10 shows a case of three bracket interaction lanes 332. At least one set of brackets 333 for supporting a container may be provided on each bracket lane 332, four brackets in fig. 10 forming a set adapted to support a 20-gauge container. For 40 gauge or larger containers, two sets of brackets 333 may be supported.

When a shipping process is required to be performed (transferring the containers stored in the container yard 300 to the ship parked at the dock), the identification codes of the ships parked at the coastline corresponding to the bridge crane operation area 500 are collected by the information collection device arranged in the bridge crane operation area 500, and sent to the background system to retrieve relevant information of the containers required to be transported by the ship, such as the yard site position (sub yard number), the stacking position, etc., and then the bracket positions are determined according to the retrieved relevant information, and sent to the sea side rail crane 322 and the in-yard transport vehicle of the corresponding sub yard, the sea side rail crane 322 is guided to extract the containers 2 required to be shipped from the container yard 300, and parked on the brackets 333 corresponding to the bracket positions. After the in-field transport vehicle receives the bracket position, the in-field transport vehicle automatically travels from the in-field transport vehicle operation area 400 to the bracket lane 332 corresponding to the bracket position, and parks at the bracket 333 corresponding to the bracket position. At this time, the container 2 parked on the stand 333 is located above the in-field transport vehicle, which controls the lifting of its carrying platform, lifts up the container on the stand 333, and drives away from the sea-side interaction zone 330.

The in-field transfer vehicle carries the container to be shipped into the in-field transfer vehicle operating area 400. As shown in fig. 1, a positioning device 401 for positioning the travel position of the in-field transport vehicle is arranged in the in-field transport vehicle operating area 400, and the positioning device is preferably designed in such a way that magnetic nails are arranged on the ground of the in-field transport vehicle operating area 400. The magnetic nails 401 comprise a plurality of magnetic nails which are distributed on the ground of the running area 400 of the transport vehicle in the field in a matrix form, and each magnetic nail 401 corresponds to an independent code. In the embodiment, a horizontal automatic guiding vehicle is adopted as the in-field transport vehicle, and a radar scanning plate is arranged on the in-field transport vehicle. During the running of the horizontal automatic guided vehicle in the in-field transfer vehicle running area 400, the magnetic nails 401 on the ground are scanned by the radar scanning plate, and codes of the magnetic nails 401 are acquired and sent to a background system so as to calculate the physical position of the horizontal automatic guided vehicle. The background system automatically generates a driving route according to the physical position of the horizontal automatic guiding vehicle and the berthing position of the ship and sends the driving route to the horizontal automatic guiding vehicle, so that the operation of the horizontal automatic guiding vehicle is scheduled.

The horizontal automatic guiding vehicle conveys the container to be loaded to the junction position of the in-situ transfer vehicle running area 400 and the bridge crane operation area 500, and the container on the horizontal automatic guiding vehicle is hoisted into the ship through the bridge crane, so that the loading operation is completed.

In this embodiment, in the bridge crane working area 500, a plurality of bridge cranes 501 are sequentially arranged along the coastline 600, as shown in fig. 1, and each bridge crane 501 corresponds to a unique code. When the ship needs to dock at the wharf, the background system automatically arranges a docking position for the ship, wherein the docking position corresponds to the bridge crane code, and the bridge crane code and the ship identification code are stored in an information list of the background system in an associated manner. When the background system executes the shipping operation flow, the destination of the horizontal automatic guiding vehicle is determined according to the bridge crane code corresponding to the ship, the horizontal automatic guiding vehicle is further controlled to travel to the position of the bridge crane 501 corresponding to the bridge crane code, then the parking position of the container in the ship is sent to the bridge crane 501, and the shipping operation of the container is automatically completed through the bridge crane 501.

On the contrary, when the ship unloading operation flow is required to be executed (the container on the ship is transferred to the container yard 300), the background system calls out relevant information such as the corresponding bridge crane code, yard field position (sub yard number), stacking position and the like according to the identification code of the ship, generates a ship unloading operation task and the parking position of the container in the ship, sends the ship unloading operation task and the container to the bridge crane 501 corresponding to the bridge crane code, and controls the bridge crane 501 to take out the container from the ship and hoist the container to the horizontal automatic guide vehicle. Then, the back-end system generates a walking route according to the bridge crane code and the yard site location, controls the horizontal automated guided vehicle to transfer the container to the sea-side interaction zone 330 corresponding to the yard site location, and parks on the designated rack 333. Then, the back-end system transmits the rack position and the stacking position to the sea-side rail crane 322 corresponding to the yard site position, and the container is extracted from the rack 333 by the sea-side rail crane 322 and stored to the stacking position, thereby completing the ship unloading operation.

In designing the container yard 300, it is considered that a hoist 324 for lifting a spreader 325 is installed on each of the rail cranes 321, 322, as shown in fig. 8. The hoist 324 is typically mounted to one side of the main frame 326 of the track crane and projects outwardly from the main frame 326 by a height d. The d is typically around 2 meters. In conventional designs of container yard 300, the track crane of each sub-yard has its hoist 324 on the same side of main frame 326, and a service lane with a width greater than d is formed between two adjacent sub-yards, where the width of the service lane should be at least slightly greater than the conventional single lane width, for example d=5 meters, for the service vehicle to pass through, so as to facilitate the service vehicle to perform the service operation when the track crane fails. This conventional design results in a large floor space for the entire container yard 300, which is not conducive to the construction of a small dock.

In order to solve the above problem, the sub-yards in the container yard 300 are grouped and divided into groups according to adjacent sub-yards, the spacing W1 between two sub-yards in each group is smaller than the width of a single lane, for example, w1=2 to 3 meters, and a lane 326 with a width W2 greater than 2d, for example, w2=5 to 6 meters, is formed between the adjacent groups for maintaining the vehicle traffic. The windlass 324 on the two rail cranes 321, 322 in each sub-yard is respectively arranged on the same side of the main frame 326 and is positioned on the side adjacent to the traffic lane 327, namely, the rail cranes on the two sub-yards in each group are not provided with windlass 324 on the side adjacent to each other, and the windlass 324 is arranged on the side away from the side, so that the interval W1 between the two sub-yards can be reduced as much as possible. The windlass 324 of two adjacent groups of sub-yards are opposite to each other, a traffic lane 326 with the width W2 being more than 2d is reserved, and the staggered car requirement of the track crane is met. The design width W2 is larger than the width of a normal single lane, so that the passing requirement of maintenance vehicles can be met. For the two sub-yards located at the outermost side of the whole container yard 300, the windlass 324 on the track cranes 321, 322 can be installed on one side of the main frame 326 facing the periphery of the container yard 300, thereby reducing the occupied area of the whole container yard 300 and facilitating the overall layout of the wharf.

It should be understood that the above description is not intended to limit the invention to the particular embodiments disclosed, but to limit the invention to the particular embodiments disclosed, and that other variations, modifications, additions and substitutions are possible, without departing from the scope of the invention as disclosed in the accompanying claims.
