Method, control program and system for identifying a container in a container crane assembly

摘要

The method involves detecting the corners of a container (102) by two cameras (103,104) arranged on container-side ends (111,112) of a spreader (101). Alphanumeric container identifiers (121,122), arranged on front ends of a container upper side, are recorded by the cameras and fed to an optical character recognition device (105). The identifiers are arranged in a pre-determined distance between the spreader and container. Independent claims are also included for: (1) a control program for identification of a container in a container crane; and (2) a system for identification of a container in a container crane.
