摘要

The plant has a loading/unloading bridge (3), which can be adjusted to differences in level between ship (1) and land (2). The bridge is supported on the harbor bottom (6) independent of land and ship. The bridge is mounted on a support structure (5) so that it is height-adjustable and can also be pivoted horizontally. It is connected to a drive mechanism, e.g. hydraulic cylinders (4). The structure consists of two or more pylons.
