Abstract

Un contenant pour bateau (26I; 26II) est transféré d'un emplacement A situé côté bateau à un emplacement B situé côté quai B. Sur le trajet entre les deux emplacements A et B, en une position C, le contenant (26I, 26II) est transféré d'une grue de manutention (16) à un moyen de transport (40) situé côté quai. Lorsqu'il est en position C, le contenant (26I, 26II) est placé sur des éléments-supports de dispositifs d'accouplement intermédiaires (34) qui comportent une cavité pour chacun des dispositifs d'accouplement (30). Les unités d'accouplement intermédiaires (30) peuvent alors être accouplées au contenant (26I, 26II) lorsque celui est amené sur le bateau et qu'il doit y être bloqué au moyen desdites unités d'accouplement intermédiaires (30) ou bien ces dernières peuvent être désaccouplées dudit contenant (26I, 26II), lorsque le contenant provient du bateau (28) et qu'il doit être déposé sur le quai (12) sans unités d'accouplement intermédiaires (30).
