본 논문에서는 카메라를 이용하여 크레인 스프레더의 스큐모션을 계측하는 계측기법에 대해 고찰하고 있다. 계측장치는 트롤리에 설치한 카메라와 스프레더에 설치한 두 개의 랜드마크로 구성된다. 랜드마크를 이용하여 크레인 스프레더 흔들림과 상하위치를 검출하는 기법은 저자들이 이미 제안한 기술이며 실험을 통해 그 유용성을 검증하였다. 크레인 스프레더의 스큐모션 계측기법 또한 제안된 계측기법에 기초한 것으로 두 개의 랜드마크를 검출하여 템플릿 매칭기법으로 스큐모션을 계측할 수 있다. 스큐모션은 스프레더의 회전각도를 검출하여 계측해야 하는데 계측정도와 신뢰도는 정확한 템플릿매칭의 가능여부에 의존하게 된다. 즉, 랜드마크의 회전으로 매칭이 실패할 경우에는 정확한 회전각도를 검출할 수 없는 경우가 발생할 수 있게 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 랜드마크 회전에 따라 템플릿을 회전시키는 방법을 도입하여 템플릿매칭의 신뢰성과 계측정도를 개선하는 방법에 대해 연구하였다. 제안된 방법을 이용할 경우 템플릿매칭이 실패하는 경우가 없음을 실험을 통해 확인하였으며, 측정범위는 ${\pm}12^{\circ}$ 이고 이것은 크레인 스프레더의 스큐모션을 파악하고 제어하는데 충분한 정도의 범위이다.

The automatic Landing system is used for the automatic functions of automatic transfer crane in the automated container terminal. It confirms and adjusts the alignment and pose between spreader and container and accomplishes the automatic loading/unloading job of containers in yard. Specially, it is required in the automated container terminal and is well adapted under the coarse external environments. This system used the laser sensors to recognize the alignment between spreader and container. In this paper the algorithm of recognition of the alignment and pose is presented and the result of its simulation is shown.

Many malfunction take place in container crane spreader due to impact. So we designed a 2 DOF hydraulic impact absorbing equipment to absorb the impact and we studied the change of damping coefficient with respect to the variation of dimensions of oil-Cylinder wail. When we design the dimension of hydraulic cylinder wall considering the displacement on the wall, the value of it over 20m didn't affect the damping coefficient.

In general, the swing motion of the crane is controlled and suppressed by activating the trolley motion. In this paper, we suggest a new type of anti-sway control system of the crane. In the proposed control system, a small auxiliary mass(moving-mass) is installed on the spreader and the swing motion is controlled by moving the auxiliary mass. The actuator reaction against the auxiliary mass applies inertial control forces to the container to reduce the swing motion in the desired manner. In this paper, we apply the $H_{\infty}$ based control technique to the anti-sway control system design problem. And the experimental result shows that the proposed control system is shown to be useful and robust to disturbances like winds and initial sway motion.

Recently, an automatic crane control system is required with high speed and rapid transportation. During the operation of crane system in container yard it is necessary to control the crane trolley position and loop length so that the swing of the hanging container is minimized We can do development of unmanned automation control system using automation travel control technique and anti-sway technique in crane system. Therefore, we designed a controller for Automation travel control to control the transfer crane system. Analyzed crane system through simulation, and proved excellency of control performance than other conventional controllers.

As the quantity of transported goods increases, there is a lot of mechanical trouble with loading facilities. So it tremendously produces not only economic loss but also time loss. To reduce the loss from the trouble of leading facilities, it is necessary to analyse the distribution of the problem's occurrence and use the analyzed data to minimize the outbreak of trouble. So the data can be usefully used when designing or manufacturing and it also can be utilized for proper maintenance of operating equipment, frequency of inspection and repair, know-how of checking on equipment and purchasing of spare parts. And it is possible to minimize the loss if the propel maintenance is adapted

Many malfunctions take place in container crane spreader due to impact. So we designed a 2DOF hydraulic impact absorbing system and studied the change of impulse with respect to the variation of falling height and weight. The falling height becomes higher than 1m and the falling weight goes up heavier than 100kg, the impact absorbing rate was lower. When spreader is bumped against container and impulse force concentrates on one point, impact absorbing equipment would not be operated properly and make some trouble.
