Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of charging piles, and in particular to a semi-submersible anti-collision offshore charging pile. Background Art

[0002] With the development of new energy technology, new energy ships will surely become popular in the future. To solve the energy problem of new energy ships, offshore charging pile technology is an indispensable part of the energy source of new energy ships. The inventors found that the offshore charging piles in the prior art have at least the following problems:

[0003] Offshore charging piles installed in the open ocean will use floating offshore charging piles instead of offshore charging piles with fixed foundations due to the deep seabed or large waves on the sea surface. However, during the charging process, the waves often cause the charging piles and new energy ships to get too close and collide with each other, causing damage to the offshore charging piles or the ships.

[0004] In view of this, it is necessary to develop a semi-submersible anti-collision offshore charging pile to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention
