<p>Cargo handling apparatus for transferring cargo, i.e. containers between cargo receiving areas i.e. a hold of a ship and a dockside. The apparatus includes a frame carried on mount means with a boom projecting outwardly. Two closed tracks (10, 20) are carried from the frame. Cargo is transferred by combinations of two trolleys (31, 32, 33, 34), one in each track, and a grip (40, 41). With two trolleys (31, 32) on the outward sides (22, 11) of the tracks the grip (40) is in a position perpendicular to the boom. With two trolleys (33, 34) on the inward sides (12, 21) of the tracks, one following the other, the grip (41) is in a parallel position to the boom. In the last position the grip (41) can be moved through the opening formed by the suspension means (61, 62) of a combination in the first position. Combinations turn and change position at the ends of the boom following in each others path.</p> |
