Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of shipbuilding, and in particular to a tool and method for prefabricating an outlet pipe of a cryogenic liquid cargo pump of an LNG ship pump tower. Background Art

[0002] What distinguishes LNG ship construction from ordinary civilian ships is that it has a liquid cargo system and a maintenance system. The two systems are interdependent, with high construction difficulty and a long construction period. The installation of the pump tower, an important component of the liquid cargo system, must be carried out after the maintenance system is completed. The pump tower installation includes: overall hoisting and positioning of the pump tower, positioning of equipment on the pump tower, and installation of all pipelines. Among them, the installation of the two liquid cargo pumps and the production of the outlet pipes are particularly important. In the existing technology, there are many types of liquid cargo pumps. For example, the patent document with publication number CN104514723B discloses a marine vertical deep-well liquid cargo pump.

[0003] The liquid cargo pump structure has a pump outlet 1 at the top and a pump suction port 2 at the bottom. During installation, the pump body 5 needs to be fixedly combined with the two pump brackets 3 into one. A mounting gasket 6 is provided at the connection between the pump bracket 3 and the pump body 5. The upper plane of the pump body 5 and the reverse side of the pump bracket 3 are fixed with a circle of bolts. Eight shock-absorbing blocks 4 are also installed on the lower sides of the two pump brackets 3 to contact the pump body 5 to reduce the vibration of the pump body 5 during operation. The combination of the pump and the bracket is installed on the base of the pump tower bottom plate. There is a mounting gasket between the pump bracket 2 and the base for adjusting the height of the installation position.

[0004] The liquid cargo pump is imported equipment and is delivered late, so it cannot be pre-installed in advance. The liquid cargo pump weighs about 1.8 tons. Even if it can be pre-installed in the workshop in advance, the pump tower needs to be placed vertically and fixed. The pump tower is about 30 meters high and weighs about 35 tons. It is placed horizontally in the workshop. Placing it vertically requires the construction of a large tooling bracket, and wind and rain protection must also be considered, which requires a relatively large investment.

[0005] In the prior art, the conventional installation procedures for pump towers and liquid cargo pumps are as follows:

[0006] 1. After the maintenance system in the cargo tank is basically completed, the pump tower will be hoisted as a whole;

[0007] 2. After the pump tower is in place, position the pump tower as a whole so that the height L1 between its bottom and the bottom of the cabin meets the design requirements;

[0008] 3. Determine the positions of the two liquid cargo pumps according to the positioning of the pump tower so that the height L2 between the suction port and the bottom of the tank meets the design requirements. Adjust the installation gasket to determine this height and fix the position of the liquid cargo pumps;

[0009] 4. According to the location of the liquid cargo pump, determine the specific size of each outlet pipe on site, lay out on site, lift it out of the tank and complete the production, then lift it back into the liquid cargo tank for installation;

[0010] Since this section of the liquid cargo pump outlet pipe plays a very important role and has a large diameter, high production and positioning accuracy are required. The current construction method has the following problems:

[0011] 1. The construction period is long. Since the above processes need to be completed step by step, it usually takes two weeks, which has a great impact on the entire ship construction period;

[0012] 2. The construction is difficult. Since positioning and other work are all carried out on site, and there is no large lifting equipment in the liquid cargo tank, the actual liquid cargo pump weighs 1.8 tons, and operation and adjustment are relatively laborious.

[0013] 3. High labor intensity and poor safety. Workers need to go on board for a long time to enter the liquid cargo tank for construction, running back and forth, which increases labor intensity, reduces work efficiency and reduces construction safety;

[0014] Based on this, the present invention provides a tool and method for prefabricating the outlet pipe of a cryogenic liquid cargo pump of an LNG ship pump tower to solve the problems raised in the above background technology. Summary of the Invention

[0015] Aiming at the technical problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a tool and method for prefabricating the outlet pipe of a cryogenic liquid cargo pump of an LNG ship pump tower to solve the problems of long construction period, great construction difficulty and high labor intensity in the existing prefabrication of the outlet pipe of the liquid cargo pump.

[0018] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0019] The present invention has a novel design and is easy to manufacture, and the entire prefabrication process of the outlet pipe can be prefabricated under the horizontal platform in the workshop.

Moreover, through the realization of the above-mentioned technical effects, the position of the relevant structural components can be flexibly operated, hoisted and adjusted when the liquid cargo pump outlet pipe is prefabricated, thereby effectively shortening the construction period during the prefabrication of the prefabricated tooling, improving the construction quality and construction efficiency, reducing the difficulty of operation, and increasing construction safety.

Use the instrument to measure and adjust the four bolts f87 to determine the distance between the bottom surface 63 of the pump bracket 60 and the upper plane 71 of the pump tower base. Add temporary spacers 30 between the bottom surface 63 and the upper plane 71. Add different thicknesses and different numbers of spacers as needed. Record the eight positions.

[0104] SS006. Remove the four bolts a81 from the assembly of the simulated pump 10 and pump bracket 60 and replace them with four extended bolts 82.
