ABSTRACT:
A container yard is provided with a first container handling machine installed in the transferring area of the yard, a second container handling machine free to move in the yard, a vehicle for transferring the container, a gate located in another transferring area of the yard, and a control center responsive to the input and output information of the containers for commanding and supervising the loading and unloading operations of the first and second machines and of the vehicle in the yard. The loading and unloading operations are controlled by a method comprising the steps of taking a corresponding sequence number to the container by the control center, the applied number being retained with the container for a predetermined period and effective only in the container yard, applying a predetermined vehicle number to the vehicle by the control center, the predetermined vehicle number being effective only in the yard and being displayed on said vehicle, displaying the container number and the vehicle number by display means mounted on the first and second loading and unloading machines, thereby enabling the drivers of the loading and unloading machines and the vehicle to mutually confirm the operation command from the control center by utilizing the container number and the vehicle number as a common key word.
