ABSTRACT:
An elevator for the handling of containers, particularly in harbors, comprises a self-propelled or fixed framework (1), which may also be completely or in part incorporated with the structure of the quay crane, suitable for the receipt of trailers or railway wagons in its lower part.
At the inside of the framework (1) there is defined an empty space with a vertical axis, open at the top and at the bottom, for the vertical transfer--in either vertical direction--of containers (3, 76) between two end positions: the upper one to receive from or to deliver to a grabbing element of the quay crane the containers (3, 76) and the lower one to deliver the containers to, or to withdraw them from, a trailer or a railway wagon situated in a gallery equipped and comprised between the body sides of the framework (1) at the base of said empty space.
Between the end positions of the elevator at least one intermediate position is provided in order to form a storage unit for containers (3, 76).
The elevator is equipped with its own devices for the co-ordinated transfer by sections of the containers (3, 76) from one position to the following one in both directions.
