Method for operating container cranes on dock quaysides uses a PC with a monitor and touch screen in a crane driver's cab to load and unload container ships.

摘要

A touch screen handles operating and environmental parameters for loading containers. It gives loading weights regarding lift, lift heights, wind strength, spreader position in trolley/crab direction, on/off switch for automatic operation and type of container load. Sound card, optical signals and text are included. Operating touch screen areas are color-coded to match functions. An independent claim is also included for a computer touch screen for operating container cranes on dock quaysides.
