Problems solved by technology

At present, the traditional method of manufacturing leg chords in the world is to weld two semicircular plates and rack plates, and weld two semicircular steel pipes with a diameter of about 444mm and a thickness of about 83mm on the ultra-thick steel plate. Each chord needs at least Welding 4 full-penetration open-groove fillet welds, the welding workload is very large; since the rack plate and the semi-circular plate are ultra-thick steel plates, the welding shrinkage deformation is also very large, and the welding position needs to be constantly changed to ensure the welding shrinkage. Uniform and consistent, it will not affect the straightness, torsion and other precision requirements of the workpiece, which takes a long time, which reduces the welding efficiency; due to the structural strength and reliability requirements, in addition to strict 100% ultrasonic and X-ray non-destructive testing requirements, in During welding, it is also required that the material properties of the weld seam and heat-affected zone are not lower than that of the base metal, while deep penetration welding has a larger welding volume and a deeper molten pool, so the heat-affected zone is also larger, and has a greater impact on material properties. Large, in order to control the mechanical properties such as the strength of the material, low temperature impact toughness and hardness, various processes such as pre-weld preheating and post-weld heat preservation are required for the welded workpiece. At the same time, there are strict requirements on the temperature range and heat preservation time of preheating and heat preservation.
In short, high standards, high difficulty, complicated welding process and quality requirements bring risks to the guarantee of the entire manufacturing cycle

Embodiment 1

[0043] Now according to the manufacture of the leg chord of the 400-foot jack-up drilling platform as an example, this manufacturing method is further described:

[0044] 1. Determine the material weight of the steel ingot: optimize the calculation of the section parameters, such as figure 1 Shown is the typical section form of the chord assembly manufactured by welding, such as figure 2 As shown, it is the full section form of the chord after extrusion molding; in order to ensure that the bearing capacity of the chord structure manufactured as a whole is not lower than that of the welded structure, the weight of the structure can basically be kept unchanged or reduced without affecting the structure connected to it The overall size of the piece has changed a lot. Through calculation, the 9m chord is obtained, and the weight of the extruded billet required is about 20 tons. In addition to the process requirements, the ingot shape of the steelmaking ingot is determined to be 2...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for integral extrusion molding of jack-up platform truss-type leg chords, in particular to a manufacturing method of jack-up platform leg chords, which belongs to the technical field of steel structure manufacturing in marine engineering . Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the increasing demand for offshore oil and gas development in my country, the demand for special equipment for offshore mobile oil and gas drilling is increasing. As a mobile equipment, the jack-up platform is widely used in offshore oil and gas drilling and exploration. As the main component of the jack-up platform, the pile legs are mainly used to support the platform's offshore operation and transfer the load on the platform to the seabed foundation. [0003] The main load-bearing structural parts of truss-type steel structures are usually thick-walled tubular structures. When the load-bearing capacity is large, in order to str...
