ABSTRACT:
A container crane system comprises a storage area on a crane for storing containers temporarily, a main spreader adapted for conveyance of the containers between the storage area and a ship so constructed that the containers are guided by a cell guide and stowed into a hatch of the ship, and an auxiliary spreader adapted for conveyance of the containers between the storage area and a transport system prepared on the land to the rear of the crane. The main spreader is operated automatically according to operation schedules which are previously stored in a memory by a teaching operation and whose variable components are corrected during the automatic operation through a corrective (or modified) playback operation, while the auxiliary spreader is automatically operated through a programmed operation schedule.
