Mobile Harbor
Abstract
Disclosed is a mobile harbor capable of connecting a loading module with a propelling means to a ship anchored on the coast and transporting freights loaded from the loading module to a quay through a number of transport modules. The mobile harbor comprises a loading module that includes a connecting device capable of being securely docked to a ship, and at least one loading crane capable of loading or unloading container freights; and a transport module that includes a propelling device and a docking bridge capable of being connected to a quay, and at least one gantry crane transferring the freights stacked on a transport vehicle to the loading module or lading the transport vehicle with the freights on the transport module deck when being anchored to a quay.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A mobile harbor, comprising:
a loading module that includes a connecting device capable of being securely docked to a ship, and at least one loading crane capable of loading or unloading container freight; and a transport module that includes at least one gantry crane loading or unloading the container freight on the loading module when being connected to the loading module and unloading the freight stacked on a transport vehicles or lading the transport vehicles with the freight on the transport module deck when being anchored to a quay.
2 . The mobile harbor according to claim 1 , wherein the loading module is formed to be able to be docked corresponding to a shape of the transport module, thereby enabling a number of transport modules to be docked thereto at any time.
3 . The mobile harbor according to claim 1 , wherein the loading module has a propelling device, and further comprises:
a control tower that performs operation and control of each device; and a buffer that absorb the shock from collision by a wave when the transport module is docked thereto.
4 . The mobile harbor according to claim 1 , wherein the loading module further comprises a stabilizer that is protruded in a transverse direction of the loading module for stability and is attached/detached thereto/therefrom and foldably received therein.
5 . The mobile harbor according to claim 1 , wherein the loading module further comprises a docking managing tower that includes a system automatically controlling a location of the transport module when the transport module is docked thereto to guide the docking of the transport module.
6 . The mobile harbor according to claim 1 , wherein the loading module further comprises a posture control module mounted on a lower of a hull for maintaining the anchoring location against the ship.
7 . The mobile harbor according to claim 1 , wherein the connecting device uses a vacuum or a magnetic force in order to connect the loading module to the ship or the transport module.
8 . The mobile harbor according to claim 1 , wherein the connecting device uses a connecting member of a flexible material or an oil pressure cylinder in order to maintain a distance between the loading module and the ship so that they do not collide with each other.
9 . The mobile harbor according to claim 1 , wherein the transport module includes a propelling device.
10 . The mobile harbor according to claim 1 , wherein the transport module includes a docking bridge that is provided in an end thereof in order to be able to form a slope and be secured into the quay to maintain anchoring when the transport module is docked to the quay.
11 . The mobile harbor according to claim 1 , wherein when the transport module is docked to the quay, the transport vehicle embarks on the transport module so that the freight is transferred from the transport vehicle to the transport module or transferred from the transport module to the transport vehicle on the transport module deck.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
