Detachable flexible floating breakwater unit body

Abstract

The invention discloses a detachable flexible floating breakwater unit body which comprises an upper grid framework and a lower grid framework which consist of a plurality of tessellated packings, wherein soft cables and wave absorbing bodies in different diameters are alternated; each intersection joint of the upper grid framework and the lower grid framework is connected with the upper ends and the lower ends of the soft cables respectively to form the breakwater unit body with oddly arranged longitudinal and transverse soft cables; the wave absorbing bodies are formed by inserting and connecting two identical semicylinders with central semicircle holes and handle plugholes, staggered longitudinally, transversely and vertically at intervals to form gaps, arranged in triangle and inverted-triangle shapes, and mounted on minor diameters of the soft cables in a sleeving manner; and retaining rings connected with an anchorage system are arranged at four corners of the lower grid framework. The unit body is wide in wave absorbing range, good in wave absorbing effect, small in wave force, and convenient to construct and maintain, has a good shield effect on a long wave and a short wave, and is applicable to a harbor engineering environment which is different in water depths and not suitable for construction of the traditional breakwater.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of marine engineering structures, relates to a breakwater, and more particularly relates to a flexible floating breakwater unit which can be assembled. Background technique [0002] The application of offshore floating bridges, floating stacks, floating docks and offshore operating platforms is increasing, and breakwater structures will be built in the project to prevent these deep waters from being affected by larger waves. With the increase of the depth of the engineering waters, the cost of the traditional fixed and bottom-seat breakwaters increases sharply; and the use of materials and the distribution of wave energy of the fixed breakwaters are completely incompatible. The fixed structure can reduce waves very well, but at the same time, it also restricts the circulation of water in the shelter area, which is prone to water pollution in the port. Therefore, the new type of breakwater represented by the ...
