Embodiment 1

[0022] Such as figure 1 , figure 2 , image 3 As shown, a buoyancy-adjustable artificial floating island includes a floating island body 1. The floating island body 1 is in a rectangular shape as a whole. The floating island body 1 is provided with a cylindrical telescopic floating tank 2. There are two adjustment devices in the box. The bottom of the floating island body 1 is provided with a cylindrical lifting shaft 8, and the telescopic floating tank 2 is slidably connected in the lifting shaft 8, and a dynamic sealing structure is provided between the inner wall of the lifting shaft 8 and the outer wall of the telescopic floating tank 2. A coaxial inner shaft 14 is fixed in the lifting shaft 8 , the top of the inner shaft 14 is solidly connected with the floating island body 1 , and the bottom of the inner shaft 14 is suspended in the lifting shaft 8 . The telescopic floating tank 2 is a jacket structure, including an outer box 11 and an inner box 12. The inner box 12 ...

Embodiment 2

[0025] Such as Figure 4 As shown, the adjusting device includes a driving motor 3, a lifting screw 6 and a guide mechanism. The driving motor 3 is fixed on the outer wall of the inner shaft 14 of the floating island body 1, and the lifting screw 6 is connected to the driving motor 3 through a coupling. The output end of the lifting screw rod 6 is rotated slightly downward and connected to the bearing seat at the top of the inner shaft 14, the top of the inner wall of the telescopic buoyancy tank 2 is fixed with a nut seat 7, the lifting screw rod 6 is threadedly connected with the nut seat 7, and the guide mechanism is located at On the part of the floating island body 1 opposite to the rack 5 and the inner wall of the telescopic buoyancy tank 2 . Telescopic floating tank 2 is twelve. All the other are with embodiment 1.

Abstract

The invention discloses a buoyancy-adjustable artificial floating island which comprises a floating island body. The floating island is provided with retractable buoyancy tanks, and an adjusting device is arranged between the floating island body and each retractable buoyancy tank. By means of the buoyancy-adjustable artificial floating island, the overwater exposed size of the artificial floating island can be changed through operation of the retractable buoyancy tanks, the height difference between the artificial floating island and a freighter moored in a deep water area outside the island reef is adjusted, and material transfer work efficiency and safety are improved. The buoyancy-adjustable artificial floating island can be adapted to freighters of different tonnages, construction units can have much room for freighter arrangement in the construction material conveying process, limitation on selection of sizes of the freighters due to consideration of the size difference between the freighters and small boats is not needed, the parking time of the freighters can be reduced when materials are transferred, and economy of island reef construction is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an ocean engineering facility, more specifically, to an artificial floating island with adjustable buoyancy. Background technique [0002] At present, my country's land resources are becoming increasingly tense. At the same time, there are a large number of uninhabited islands and reefs in my country's territorial waters that have not been developed and utilized. With the rapid development of my country's economy and technology, my country has sufficient economic and technical capabilities to support large-scale marine construction. Therefore , Marching into the sea and asking for space from the sea is a feasible means to solve the current land problems in our country. At present, many coastal cities have carried out urban expansion construction such as land reclamation and near-shore uninhabited island development. In addition, the issue of my country's maritime and homeland security cannot be ignored. A few maritime neighbors ...
