DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] In order to deepen the understanding of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with examples. The examples are only used to explain the present invention and do not constitute a limitation on the protection scope of the present invention.

[0021] Embodiment 1 according to Figure 1 , 2As shown in FIG. 3 , this embodiment provides a light permanent mooring rope, comprising a pressed steel sleeve 1 and a steel wire rope 2. The pressed steel sleeve 1 is provided with two groups, and a pressed groove is provided inside the pressed steel sleeve 1. Both ends of the steel wire rope 2 are fixed into the pressed grooves of the two groups of pressed steel sleeves 1. A hook ring 3 is provided at the outer end of the pressed steel sleeve 1. The outer side of the steel wire rope 2 is coated with a PE protective sleeve 4, and a sleeve groove is provided inside the pressed steel sleeve 1 at one end of the pressed groove. The two ends of the PE protective sleeve 4 are respectively inserted into the sleeve grooves of the two groups of pressed steel sleeves 1, and the outer side of the PE protective sleeve 4 and the sleeve groove are filled with sealant 5. The pressed steel sleeve 1 and the steel wire rope 2 are composed of the steel wire rope 2, the steel wire rope 2 is wrapped with the PE protective sleeve 4, and the end of the steel wire rope 2 is pressed and fixed to the pressed groove of the pressed steel sleeve 1. The overall structure is compact, light in weight, and easy to install and use. The PE protective sleeve 4 is fixed into the sleeve groove of the pressed steel sleeve 1, and the outer side of the PE protective sleeve 4 and the sleeve groove are filled with sealant 5, which can effectively prevent seawater from entering the PE protective sleeve 4 to corrode the steel wire rope 2 and improve durability.

[0022] The diameter of the pressing groove is smaller than that of the sleeve groove, and a chamfered arc 6 is provided between the pressing groove and the sleeve groove, and the steel wire rope 2 is pressed and held on the chamfered arc 6. Inside the pressed steel sleeve 1, a chamfered arc 6 is provided between the pressing groove and the sleeve groove, and the steel wire rope 2 is pressed and held on the chamfered arc 6 to avoid contact between the edge and the rope body, reduce stress concentration, and avoid wear.

[0023] The hook ring 3 is integrally formed with the pressed steel sleeve 1, and both the hook ring 3 and the pressed steel sleeve 1 are made of duplex stainless steel. The steel wire rope 2 is fixed by pressing and pressing grooves of the pressed steel sleeve 1, and the pressing ratio of the pressed steel sleeve 1 is 1.15. The steel wire rope 2 is a duplex stainless steel strand.

[0024] Duplex stainless steel structure, PE outer layer. The compression ratio of the pressed steel sleeve 1 is 1.15, which can ensure that the rigging as a whole has a static load breaking force of not less than 90% of the breaking force of the steel wire rope 2 and a breaking force of not less than 60% of the breaking force of the steel wire rope 2 after 7500 fatigue tests. (The test process refers to GB / T4473-2015, the minimum breaking force of the steel wire rope 2 in the first example is 335klN, and a test piece is actually made to do a 301.5kN static load test. After holding the load for 30 seconds, the steel wire rope 2 has no broken wires, and the pressed steel sleeve 1 has no cracks or slippage. Another test piece is made to do a 201kN static load test after 7500 fatigue tests. The steel wire rope 2 has no broken wires, and the pressed steel sleeve 1 has no cracks or slippage).

[0025] The manufacturing process is as follows: pre-stretching of steel wire rope → wrapping PE → unloading → spare parts → applying sealant → pressing → inspection → packaging and storage. The special sealant 5 is added between the pressed steel sleeve 1 and the PE protective sleeve 4, which can effectively prevent seawater from entering the PE and corroding the steel strand. In addition, protective measures need to be taken during the manufacturing process to prevent the duplex stainless steel from being contaminated by iron ions and forming pitting in seawater in the later stage. An inverted arc 6 is provided inside the pressed steel sleeve 1 to effectively reduce the damage to the steel wire rope 2 caused by stress concentration. With the above measures, the light mooring rope can continue to work in seawater for more than 5 years without being damaged.

This structure is different from direct downward pressing. It uses the cooperation of multiple groups of articulated arms to further increase the pressing force in the later process. After pressing, the supporting effect of the second articulated arm 14 and the third articulated arm 15 after tending to verticality is used to achieve a certain self-locking pressure holding function, so that the pressing effect is better.

[0027] The clamp includes a pressing block 16 and a pressing seat 17. The pressing block 16 is arranged at the middle position of the bottom of the slide plate 10, and the pressing seat 17 is arranged at the middle position of the top of the bottom plate 7.

Through the action of the sliding sleeve 18, the slide plate 10 is convenient to move along the guide rod 9, and the smooth film is used to reduce the friction during movement.

[0029] Both ends of the bottom of the top plate 8 are provided with first hinge seats 19, and the upper ends of the two sets of the second hinge arms 14 are respectively rotatably connected to the two sets of the first hinge seats 19. Both ends of the top of the slide plate 10 are provided with second hinge seats 20, and the lower ends of the two sets of the third hinge arms 15 are respectively rotatably connected to the two sets of the second hinge seats 20. By utilizing the cooperation of multiple sets of hinge arms, the pressing force in the later process is further increased, and after pressing, the supporting effect of the second hinge arms 14 and the third hinge arms 15 tending to be vertical is utilized to achieve a certain self-locking and pressure-maintaining function, so that the pressing effect is better.

[0030] Both ends of the bottom of the bottom plate 7 are provided with feet 21, and the feet 21 are fixed on the installation table by bolts. When in use, the feet 21 are fixed on the installation table by bolts to improve the stability of the overall device, which is more reliable during pressing.

[0031] The light permanent mooring rope and manufacturing equipment are composed of a pressed steel sleeve 1 and a steel wire rope 2. The steel wire rope 2 is wrapped with a PE protective sleeve 4. The end of the steel wire rope 2 is pressed and fixed to the inside of the pressed groove of the pressed steel sleeve 1. The overall structure is compact, light in weight, and easy to install and use. The PE protective sleeve 4 is fixed to the inside of the sleeve groove of the pressed steel sleeve 1.

At the same time, a chamfered arc 6 is provided inside the pressed steel sleeve 1 between the pressed groove and the sleeve groove. The steel wire rope 2 is pressed and held on the chamfered arc 6 to avoid contact between the edge and the rope body, reduce stress concentration, and avoid wear. In addition, the pressing ratio of the pressed steel sleeve 1 is 1.15, which can ensure that the rigging as a whole has a static load breaking force of not less than 90% of the breaking force of the wire rope and a breaking force of not less than 60% of the breaking force of the wire rope after 7500 fatigue tests. Therefore, the manufacturing equipment is used to place the pressed steel sleeve 1 on the inside of the clamp, and the hydraulic cylinder 11 pushes the pressing block 12. The pressing block 12 pushes the first articulated arm 13 to rotate, and pushes the hinge points of the second articulated arm 14 and the third articulated arm 15 to rotate outward, so that the slide plate 10 is pressed down to drive the clamp for pressing. This structure is different from direct downward pressing. It uses the cooperation of multiple groups of articulated arms to further increase the pressing force in the later stage. After pressing, the supporting effect of the second articulated arm 14 and the third articulated arm 15 after tending to vertical is used to achieve a certain self-locking and pressure-maintaining function, so that the pressing effect is better.
