[0002] Submarine optical cables are the submarine nerves that realize global interconnection and are important carriers of information and communication. According to statistics, optical cables carry most of the international data transmission. Once a submarine optical cable fails, the entire national economy will be in danger of paralysis. Cable-laying vessels are special ships used to transport, lay and repair optical cables. With the increasing demand for optical cable transportation, laying and repair, cable-laying vessels are now required to carry a large amount of cable-laying materials during work. However, due to the limitation of the volume and space of cable-laying vessels, the hangar doors of traditional cable-laying vessels are generally set as single doors. Although the opening method is simple, the single door increases the difficulty of material handling, resulting in reduced handling efficiency and long handling time. In addition, due to the limited opening space of the hatch door, the operating space for the handling personnel is narrow, which seriously threatens the personal safety of the handling personnel during the handling process.

[0003] Related reference CN110454034A discloses a folding hangar door, comprising a first door body and a second door body arranged in sequence from top to bottom, wherein the first door body is hinged to the hangar side wall by a first hinge, and the second door body is hinged to the first door body by a second hinge, and a first flipping device for driving the first door body to rotate around the first hinge is provided between the first door body and the hangar side wall, and a second flipping device for driving the second door body to rotate around the second hinge is provided between the second door body and the first door body.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present application, the technical solution of the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings: like Figure 1As shown, a foldable opening door for a cable-laying ship provided by the present application includes a hangar 100, a lower door assembly 200, an upper door assembly 300, a connecting assembly 400, a fixing assembly 500, and a hoisting assembly 600. The hangar 100 is located at the middle and rear part of the hull and around the foldable opening door of the present application. The lower door assembly 200 is connected and disconnected with the upper door assembly 300 around by the connecting assembly 400 and the fixing assembly 500. A removable threshold 44 is installed at the lower part. After the threshold 44 is removed, the wheeled cargo can be directly pushed out from the removable threshold 44 without passing through the hoisting assembly 600. The lower door assembly 200 is arranged at the exit of the hangar 100, with the upper door assembly 300 at the top and the lower door frame and the threshold 44 at the bottom. When it is in the open state, it is convenient to carry cargo from the hangar 100 to the hull deck, and a continuous opening angle can be achieved to expand the cargo handling space according to the cargo volume. When it is closed, The upper door assembly 300 is located above the lower door assembly 200 and is connected to the lower door assembly 200 through the connection assembly 400. The upper door assembly 200 can decide whether to open or not according to actual needs. When it is in the open state, it greatly reduces the transfer blind area between the hangar 100 and the open deck, making the transfer of goods between the hangar 100 and the open deck more convenient. If it is in a closed state when it is not needed to be opened, it can reduce the heat loss of the hangar; the connection assembly 400 is used to realize two main connections between the components of the opening door: one is to realize the connection between the lower door assembly 200 and the hangar 100, and the other is the connection between the upper door assembly 300 and the hangar 100. The fixing assembly 500 is arranged between the lower door assembly 200 and the hangar 100, so that the door can be closed when it is not opened, avoiding the loss caused by the goods hitting the open hangar door due to the poor transportation environment during transportation. The hoisting assembly 600 includes a hanging beam 61 and a hook 62. The beam 61 is connected to the upper door 31, and its length matches the length of the top of the hangar 100. The hook 62 slides on the beam 61, so that the hook 62 moves back and forth to carry the goods. When the lower door assembly 200 and the upper door assembly 300 are both opened and folded together, the beam 61 faces downward, and the hook 62 can move on the beam 61, so that the objects can be lifted from the hangar 100 to the open deck.

[0022] like Figure 2As shown, the lower door assembly 200 includes a lower door 21, a first hinge 22, a hinge rod 23, and a first opening hydraulic cylinder 24. The lower end of the lower door 21 is connected to the hangar 100 through a connecting assembly 400, connected to the lower door frame through a fixing assembly 500, and connected to the hangar 100 through the connecting assembly 400 at both ends. The upper part is connected to the upper door 31 through a first hinge 22. There are four first hinges 22 distributed between the two doors. The hinge rod 23 is connected to the lower door 21, the upper door 31, and the first opening hydraulic cylinder 24 respectively. The first opening hydraulic cylinder 24 drives the lower door 21 to open through the hinge rod 23. One end of the first opening hydraulic cylinder 24 is rotatably mounted on the upper door frame through a pin shaft, and a square positioning hole 4 is provided at the end. The other end of the first opening hydraulic cylinder 24 is rotatably connected to the driving hole of the hinge rod 23 through a pin shaft, and is used to open and close the lower door 21. An opening and closing hole is provided on the bottom surface of the lower door 21, and a pin hole is provided on the side wall of the lower door 21. The hinge rod 23 is a two-section type, and the two sections are rotatably connected by a pin shaft. A pin shaft hole is provided at one end of the hinge rod 23, and is connected to the ear plate on the upper door 31 by a pin shaft. A pin shaft hole is also provided at the other end of the hinge rod 23, and is connected to the hole of the driving plate on the lower door 21 by a pin shaft. In the working state, the end of the hinge rod 23 connected to the upper door 31 is fixed, and the first opening hydraulic cylinder 24 can drive the hinge rod 23 to achieve different rotations under different extension lengths, thereby driving the lower door 21 to complete the transformation of different angles. The upper door assembly 300 includes an upper door 31, a second opening hydraulic cylinder 32, and a second hinge 33; the lower end of the upper door 31 is connected to the lower door 21, and the upper end is connected to the upper door frame by the second hinge 33, and the left and right sides are connected to the hangar 100 by the connecting assembly 400. The left and right positioning rods 53 are evenly distributed on the upper part of the upper door 31. The positioning rods 53 are telescopically installed on the upper door 31 through a positioning frame, and the positioning frame is installed on the upper door frame through a hinge. The positioning rod 53 is square, and the side wall is provided with a gear part, the gear part and the gear mesh, the gear is located in the positioning frame, and a handle is installed on the gear, and the handle extends out of the positioning frame. After the lower door 21 is opened, the positioning rod 53 is inserted into the square positioning hole 4 at the end of the first opening hydraulic cylinder 24 by rotating the handle to achieve clamping. When the lower door 21 is in the open state, the first opening hydraulic cylinder 24 is fixedly connected with the upper door 31 to avoid the situation that the lower door 21 flips downward. One end of the second opening hydraulic cylinder 32 is connected to the ear plate on the door frame of the hangar 100 through a pin shaft, and the other end is connected to the ear plate on the upper door 31 through a pin shaft. The upper door 31 is opened and closed by telescopic means. The second hinge 33 connects the upper door 31 and the upper door frame when the upper door 31 realizes angle change.

[0023] The connection assembly 400 includes a first connection hydraulic cylinder 41, a connection rod 42, a second connection hydraulic cylinder 43, a threshold 44, and a third connection hydraulic cylinder 45. The first connection hydraulic cylinder 41 is rotatably mounted on the floor of the hangar 100 through a bracket ear plate, and is located at the hydraulic cylinder mounting hole in the lower door frame. The connection rod 42 is located above the first connection hydraulic cylinder 41, and the connection between the lower door 21 and the door leaf is disconnected by extending the hydraulic rod and cooperating with the connection rod 42. The ear plate in the middle of the connection rod 42 is rotatably connected to the first connection hydraulic cylinder 41, and a through hole is provided on the connection rod 42, and an obtuse opening and closing plate 1 is installed on the through hole through a pin. The opening and closing plate 1 is rotatably mounted on the lower door frame through a pin at the angle, so that the lower door 21 can be separated from the lower door frame and the lower door 21 is opened. The second connecting hydraulic cylinder 43 is installed on the side wall of the hangar 100, located at the hydraulic cylinder mounting hole in the side door frame. The hydraulic rod end of the second connecting hydraulic cylinder 43 is rotatably installed with a driving pin 2 with an angle. The driving pin 2 is installed on the side door frame through an axis at the angle. The driving pin 2 cooperates with the pin hole, extends through the hydraulic rod, and the driving pin 2 retracts into the warehouse so that the lower door 21 is disconnected from the hangar 100. The threshold 44 is distributed on the left and right sides of the first connecting hydraulic cylinder 41 and can be removed. The threshold 44 is installed in the card slot of the lower door frame through the blocks at both ends, and the threshold 44 can be removed by lifting it upward. Or the threshold 44 extends out of the mounting plate through its two ends, and the mounting plate is connected to the lower door frame with screws, and it can be removed by loosening the screws. After the threshold 44 is removed, the goods equipped with pulleys can be directly pushed out from the detachable threshold without the help of a crane, which is more conducive to the transportation of wheeled goods. The third connecting hydraulic cylinder 45 is installed on the upper door 31, and the end of the hydraulic rod of the third connecting hydraulic cylinder 45 is connected to the pin 3, and the connecting pin 3 is slidably installed in the through hole of the bracket, and the bracket is installed on the upper door 31. A pin nose is provided on the side door frame, and the hydraulic rod is extended, and the connecting pin 3 is retracted into the door so that the upper door 31 is disconnected from the hangar 100. The connection between the lower door assembly 200 and the hangar 100, and the connection between the upper door assembly 300 and the hangar 100 are realized through the connecting assembly 400, which further improves the connection reliability of the upper door 31, the lower door 21 and the hangar 100, and ensures that the cabin door is not opened by mistake.

[0024] The fixing assembly 500 includes a fixing clamp 51 and an operating handle 52. The fixing clamp 51 is located at the bottom edge of the lower door 21 and is connected to the operating handle 52. The operating handle 52 is connected to the lower door 21. The fixing clamp 51 is in an obtuse angle shape and is rotatably mounted on the lower door 21 at the angle. The operating handle 52 is provided with a rotating shaft. The operating handle 52 is mounted on the lower door 21 through the rotating shaft. One end of the operating handle 52 has a strip-shaped opening. A fixing pin is provided in the strip-shaped opening. The fixing pin can slide in the strip-shaped opening. The fixing pin is rotatably connected to the fixing clamp 51. The fixing clamp 51 cooperates with a fixing nose on the lower door frame. When the operating handle 52 is rotated, the lower door 21 can be separated from the lower door frame.

[0025] like Figure 3-Figure 5 As shown, a technical method for opening a foldable door for a cable-laying ship is mainly realized by the cooperation of a lower door assembly 200 and an upper door assembly 300 with other components. When the lower door assembly 200 is in an open state, the opening angle of the lower door 21 is mainly controlled by the first opening hydraulic cylinder 24 until the lower door 21 overlaps with the upper door 31. The opening process of the lower door 21 does not require manpower to move the heavy hangar door. During the opening process, the first opening hydraulic cylinder 24 drives the hinge rod 23 so that the lower door 21 can achieve a change in the opening angle under the rotation of the hinge 22. The upper door 31 realizes continuous change of different angles in the whole process through the second opening hydraulic cylinder 32. Taking the opening operation as an example, the closing operation is the reverse process of the opening operation. During the opening operation of the lower door 21, the lower door 21 and the upper door 31 are connected by the hinge 22 to achieve a rotation connection. One end of the rod 23 is connected to the first opening hydraulic cylinder 24, one end is connected to the upper door 21, and the other end is connected to the lower door 21. When the first opening hydraulic cylinder 24 is extended downward, it drives the hinge rod 23 to rotate downward, and the upper door 31 does not move, thereby realizing the opening of the lower door 21. The opening angle is determined according to the extension length of the first opening hydraulic cylinder 24, and finally the lower door can be opened to 180° and overlap with the upper door 31. In the opening operation of the upper door 31, the upper door 31 is connected to the upper door frame by the second hinge 33. When the second opening hydraulic cylinder 32 is extended upward, it drives the upper door 31 to rotate. The opening angle is also determined according to the extension length of the second opening hydraulic cylinder 32. The maximum opening angle of the upper door is 90°. The opening and closing processes of the lower door 21 and the upper door 31 are all achieved by extending and retracting the hydraulic rod, thereby ensuring the stability of this process.

[0026] like Figure 6-Figure 9 The diagram shows the opening state of the lower door 21 and the upper door 31. The opening operation includes the first opening hydraulic cylinder 24 controlling the lower door 21 to open continuously to 180°, and the second opening hydraulic cylinder 32 controlling the upper door 31 to open continuously to 90°. Through the opening door and operation steps designed in this application, the original single door is divided into upper and lower leaves. The upper door 31 is equipped with a transfer hanging beam 61. According to the needs of the operation, the door leaf can open the lower door 21 alone or fold and open the upper and lower door leaves, etc. The hanging beam 61 of this application can carry two tons of weight. When the two doors are folded, the hanging beam 61 faces downward, and the goods can be directly lifted to the open deck, saving the manpower and material resources required for transportation, and completely eliminating the difficulty of transferring non-overweight goods. Compared with a single door, the folding door greatly reduces the transfer blind area. The way of connecting the cabin door with the hanging beam 61 makes the transfer of goods between the hangar and the open deck more convenient.

[0027] The lower door assembly 200 and the upper door assembly 300 are in a closed state before opening. In order to ensure more convenient cargo handling in the hangar 100, the closing step of the lower door assembly 200 and the upper door assembly 300 is a reverse operation of the opening step. The opening steps of the lower door assembly 200 and the upper door 300 are described as follows: Step 1: First, disconnect the fixed connection between the hangar 100 and the lower door assembly 200.

[0028] S11: The lower door assembly 200 is ready to be opened, the fixing clamp 51 is connected to the hangar 100, the operating handle 52 is connected to the fixing clamp 51, and the operating handle 52 is turned to disconnect the connection between the lower door 21 and the door frame.

[0029] S12: The first connecting hydraulic cylinder 41 extends to drive the opening and closing plate 1 to rotate downward, thereby disconnecting the fixed connection between the lower door assembly 200 and the hangar 100.

[0030] S13: The hydraulic rods of the second connection hydraulic cylinders 43 on the left and right sides extend out, driving the pin 2 to be retracted into the hangar 100, disconnecting the fixed connection between the lower door 21 and the two side walls of the hangar 100.

[0031] Step 2: The lower door 21 is opened upwards until it overlaps with the upper door 31 .

[0032] S21: The lower door assembly 200 is opened. The first opening hydraulic cylinder 24 extends downward by a certain length, driving the hinge rod 23 to rotate downward, driving the lower door 21 to rotate through the hinge 22 to achieve continuous changes in the opening angle.

[0033] S22: Open the lower door assembly 200 upward to a 90° position.

[0034] S23: The first opening hydraulic cylinder 24 continues to extend downward, driving the hinge rod 23 to continue to rotate downward, and the lower door 21 is continuously opened upward to a 180° state.

[0035] S24: Rotate the handle of the positioning rod 53, insert the positioning rod 53 into the square positioning hole 4 at the end of the first opening hydraulic cylinder 24, and connect the positioning rod 53 to the first opening hydraulic cylinder 24. At this time, the hydraulic rod of the first opening hydraulic cylinder 24 is fixed, and the lower door 21 does not move, so that the lower door 21 and the upper door 31 are overlapped and fixed.

[0036] Step 3: The hydraulic rod of the third connecting hydraulic cylinder 45 extends into the door to disconnect the connection between the hangar 100 and the upper door 31 .

[0037] Step 4: The upper door assembly 300 is opened upward to a 90° position.

[0038] S41: The upper door assembly 300 is opened. The second opening hydraulic cylinder 32 of the upper door 31 extends upward by a certain length, driving the lower door 31 to rotate through the hinge 33, thereby changing the opening angle of the lower door 31.

[0039] S42: Open the upper door assembly 300 continuously upward to a 90° state.

[0040] Step 5: All hatches are open.

[0041] S51 : The hook 62 moves on the hanging beam 61 to transport the goods stored in the hangar 100 .

[0042] S52: Remove the left and right door sills 44 so that the cargo can be directly transported from the door sills 44 to the open deck.

[0043] The lower door can be opened separately according to the operating steps, or it can be folded and opened with the upper door. Through these five steps, the opening method can be determined according to the actual handling situation, thereby improving the handling efficiency of cable laying materials, shortening the handling time, and saving handling costs. When the goods with pulleys are transported out through the detachable threshold, the lower door is opened separately to save energy and costs. When the two doors are opened at the same time, the opening area of ​​the cabin door is fully expanded, increasing the walking passage for the handling personnel, and compared with a single door, the folding double door greatly reduces the transfer blind area from the hangar car to the exposed deck crane.

[0044] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
