To provide a load-handling machine operation assisting apparatus capable of improving the efficiency of load handling without being affected by the skill of an operator.SOLUTION: A load-handling machine operation assisting apparatus comprises: a camera 100; a control unit 200 that governs operation handling; a machine-learning computer 300 that stores an image of a load taken by the camera 100 during actual operation by an authorized operator and actual operation information acquired by the control unit 200 and machine-learns an operation pattern corresponding to the image of the load; and an assist information transmitter 510. The machine-learning computer 300, during an actual operation by an unauthorized operator, gathers an operation pattern of the unauthorized operator from the actual operation information acquired at the control unit 200, selects an operation pattern of the corresponding authorized operator obtained in machine learning based on the image of the load at that time, compares between the operation pattern of the authorized operator and the operation pattern of the unauthorized operator, and outputs assist information to the unauthorized operator based on the comparison result from the assist information transmitter 510.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】オペレータの技量に左右されることなく、荷役効率向上を図り得る荷役機械運転支援装置を提供する。【解決手段】カメラ１００と、運転操作を統括する制御装置２００と、認定オペレータによる実運転時に、カメラ１００で撮影された荷の画像と、制御装置２００で取得された実運転情報とを蓄積し、荷の画像に対応する運転パターンを機械学習する機械学習コンピュータ３００と、支援情報伝達器５１０とを備え、機械学習コンピュータ３００は、非認定オペレータによる実運転時に、非認定オペレータの運転パターンを制御装置２００で取得される実運転情報から採取し、その時点の荷の画像に基づき、機械学習で得られた対応する認定オペレータの運転パターンを選定し、認定オペレータの運転パターンと非認定オペレータの運転パターンとを比較し、比較結果に基づく非認定オペレータへの支援情報を支援情報伝達器５１０から出力させる。【選択図】図１
