Abstract (en)

[origin: WO03099700A2] Portal crane (1) for loading and/or unloading a ship having a multiplicity of bays for containers (10) comprising a gantry (2) with travelling gear (5) for supporting the gantry on a quay (13), a boom supported by the gantry made up of a horizontal beam (6) and a jib (7) that during loading and/or unloading is an extension of the beam, and at least one crab (9) that can be driven along the jib, with hoisting means (20) for the containers. The gantry, viewed in the horizontal transverse direction of the jib, has a base width at the level of the quay. The hoisting means, viewed in this direction, can move along the crab over a traversing distance and the following relationship applies: 2 x Bbay<Bbase<=2 X Bbay+T, where: T=traversing distance, Bbay=bay width, Bbase=base width. Also disclosed is a combination of two such cranes as well as the use of such a crane.
