[0035] As Figures 1 to 6 shown, the present invention provides a large water level difference automated floating passenger terminal, including:

[0036] The landing ship 2 is mainly used for the passenger ship 1 to dock, and for passengers to wait, rest, and crew to dock, etc.;

[0037] A plurality of lift buildings 4 are spaced between the passenger ship 1 and the land area 10. The lift building 4 is a hydraulic structure for resting the movable steel platform 5. An automatic climbing system is arranged in the lift building 4, and the automatic climbing system is used to drive the vertical climbing action of the movable steel platform 5. A movable pedal device 6 is arranged on the movable steel platform 5; the automatic climbing system is used to lift the movable steel platform 5 up and down to a certain height when the water level changes, ensuring that the facilities above the platform will not be flooded and the variable automatic sidewalk 7 is in an allowable inclination state;

[0038] The fixed platform 8 is fixedly arranged between the land area 10 and the lifting building 4 closest to the land area 10. An movable steel platform 5 is also arranged on the fixed platform 8, and a movable pedal device 6 is arranged thereon. The elevation of the fixed platform 8 is above the highest designed water level;

[0039] The gangplank 3 has its two ends respectively hinged to the floating dock 2 and the movable pedal device 6 of the adjacent lifting building 4, serving as the connection passage between the floating dock 2 and the first lifting building 4 on the water side;

[0040] The variable automatic sidewalk 7 is an escalator. Variable automatic sidewalks 7 are arranged between adjacent lifting buildings 4 and between the lifting building 4 and the fixed platform 8. The ends of the variable automatic sidewalks 7 are respectively hinged to the movable pedal devices 6 on the corresponding lifting building 4 or fixed platform 8; The variable automatic sidewalk 7 is installed in the steel truss corridor to form an integrally stressed pedestrian passage, having two variable inclination states of 0° and ( ≤12 °);

[0041] The fixed automatic sidewalk 9 is also an escalator. The two ends of the fixed automatic sidewalk 9 are respectively connected to the movable pedal devices 6 on the land area 10 and the fixed platform 8, and the inclination angle is fixedly 0°.

[0042] In the above technical solution, the large water level difference automated floating passenger terminal of the present application features the variable automatic sidewalk 7. The main passenger boarding and alighting channels are composed of the floating dock 2, the gangplank 3, several sections of variable automatic sidewalks 7 and the fixed automatic sidewalk 9, reducing the walking distance and climbing height of passengers and improving the safety and comfort of the terminal. When the water level is at the lowest designed water level, the gangplank 3 and the variable automatic sidewalk 7 are both at the maximum designed inclination angle, as Figure 1 shown. When the water level gradually rises, the floating dock 2 floats upward and the inclination angle of the gangplank 3 becomes smaller. As Figure 2 shown, when the water level is about to submerge the movable pedal device 6 in the water-side lifting building 4, start the automatic climbing system in the water-side lifting building 4 to hoist the water-side movable steel platform 5 to the same horizontal height as the shore-side movable steel platform 5, ensuring that the inclination angle of the water-side variable automatic sidewalk 7 is 0°, as Figure 3 shown. When the water level continues to rise until it is about to submerge the shore-side movable pedal device 6, start the two sets of automatic climbing systems simultaneously to lift the two movable steel platforms 5 to the same horizontal height as the fixed platform 8. At this time, the inclination angles of the two sections of variable automatic sidewalks 7 are both 0°, as Figure 4 shown. The gangplank 3 is at the maximum designed inclination angle, and the elevation of the fixed platform 8 is above the highest designed water level. Therefore, during the period when the water level continues to rise to the highest designed water level, it is adapted by automatically adjusting the inclination angle of the gangplank 3. Further, when at the highest designed water level, all the automatic sidewalks are in a horizontal state and the gangplank 3 is in the minimum inclination state, as Figure 5As shown, when the water level gradually drops, operate in reverse according to the above process, gradually lower the height of the movable steel platform 5 until the design lowest water level appears, and all devices return to their initial states. During this process, the variable sidewalks can operate normally in both the 0° and the designed inclination angle under these two states.

[0043] The number of variable escalators is related to the design water level and satisfies the following relationship:

[0044]

[0045] In the formula: h2 - the elevation of the land area; h1 - the elevation of the pontoon surface at the design low water level; H i - the lifting height of each moving sidewalk; L t - the length of the gangway; β - the maximum allowable angle of the gangway;

[0046] More preferably, the variable moving sidewalk 7 should be designed with targeted improvements based on standardized products with unified specifications. The lifting height of each section of the variable moving sidewalk is H, and the number of variable moving sidewalks , where h3 - the elevation of the fixed pier. Usually, in engineering practice, the elevation h3 of the fixed pier should be determined according to the design high water level h4. The elevation h1 of the pontoon surface at the design low water level mainly depends on the design low water level h5, so there is , where: Δh - the maximum water level drop; therefore, the number of variable moving sidewalks .

[0047] In this application example, with the water level drop h2 - h1 = 15m in the inland river area as the condition, it is calculated that 2 sections of variable moving sidewalks are set, the lifting height H of each variable moving sidewalk is 5m, the angle is the maximum allowable angle = 12 °, the lifting height of the movable gangway is 5m, the maximum inclination angle β = 12 °, and the angle of the fixed sidewalk is 0°.

[0048] In another technical solution, such as Figure 7As shown, the movable tread plate device 6 includes: a cavity structure 601, which is a box structure with a hollow interior. A middle partition is provided inside the cavity structure 601, and slide rails 602 are provided between it and a pair of side plates on both sides. Fixed hinge supports 608 and sliding supports 609 are respectively provided at opposite ends of the cavity structure 601 on the steel movable platform, and they are respectively hinged to the variable automatic sidewalk 7 on the corresponding side; a lapping device, which is arranged to slide along the slide rail 602. The lapping device includes two front lapping devices 604 and two rear lapping devices 605. The front lapping device 604 is lapped with the front part of the variable automatic sidewalk 7, and the rear lapping device 605 is lapped with the rear part of the automatic sidewalk. A front lapping device 604 and a rear lapping device 605 corresponding to the slide rail 602 on the same side form a group and are connected by a group of electric push rods 603. The electric push rods 603 drive the lapping device to move to realize the docking of the lapping device with the corresponding variable automatic sidewalk 7; a serrated plate, one is provided corresponding to each lapping device. A front serrated plate 606 is correspondingly installed on the front lapping device 604 and is horizontally arranged, and a rear serrated plate 607 is correspondingly installed on the rear lapping device 605 and is installed according to the inclination angle of the variable automatic sidewalk 7.

[0049] In the above technical solution, the movable pedal device 6 is used to connect the two variable moving walkways 7 on both sides to achieve the continuity of the passage. The movable pedal device 6 is fixed to the middle of the movable steel platform 5. The movable steel platform 5 is provided with a fixed hinge support 608 and a sliding support 609 on both sides of the pedestrian passage direction, which are respectively used to hinge and connect the corresponding variable moving walkways 7 to adjust the inclination angle of the variable moving walkway 7. The top plate of the cavity structure 601 is for passengers to walk on. The side and middle partitions are installed with slide rails 602, which are located inside the cavity structure 601. The top plate in the middle does not change, and the top plates on both sides follow the expansion and contraction of the overlapping device. The sliding rail 602 is installed with a overlapping device for the overlapping device to slide along the sliding rail 602. The electric push rod 603 can respectively drive the head overlapping device 604 and the tail overlapping device 605 to move an accurate distance, so as to achieve precise docking of the overlapping device with the corresponding moving walkway. There are four serrated plates. The leading serrated plate 606 is mounted on the leading lap joint 604. When the variable moving walkway 7 is tilted, the leading edge must have three level steps (this is a standard escalator configuration). Therefore, the leading serrated plates 606 are all arranged horizontally. The trailing serrated plate 607 is mounted on the trailing lap joint 605 and comes in two configurations: 0° and 9°. The appropriate trailing serrated plate 607 should be replaced when adjusting the moving walkway's tilt. The serrated plates are a standard escalator configuration, used to connect the steps to the top or bottom of the escalator. The serrated plates engage with the slots 14 on the steps, achieving a seamless connection between the steps and the exterior surface. Before each activation to adjust the tilt of the variable moving walkway 7, the lap joint must be retracted into the cavity structure 601. Once adjustment is complete, the electric push rod 603 is activated again to push the lap joint to the set position and secure it with bolts. The corresponding serrated plate is then replaced to complete the connection.

[0050] In another technical solution, Figure 7 As shown, the variable moving walkway 7 is integrally installed with the steel corridor 704. The variable moving walkway 7 includes an upward moving walkway 701, a downward moving walkway 702 on both sides, and a safety passage 703 in the middle. The upward moving walkway 701 and the downward moving walkway 702 correspond to the overlapping devices on both sides of the cavity structure 601 respectively.

[0051] In the above technical solution, the upward moving walkway 701 is an automated passage for people to transfer from the passenger ship 1 to the land area 10; the downward moving walkway 702 is an automated passage for people to transfer from the land area 10 to the passenger ship 1; the safety passage 703 is a passage between the upward and downward moving walkways 702, and is used as a temporary walking passage during the maintenance of the automated passage or in case of emergency. The main structure of the steel bridge 704 adopts a truss structure form. Four horizontal plane trusses are horizontally connected to form three space truss beams. The upward / downward moving walkways 702 are respectively installed on the two side truss beams, and the middle truss beam supports the safety passage 703. It is longitudinally divided into a horizontal section, an inclined section and a transition section. The head of the moving walkway is installed in the horizontal section, and the tail and the middle part are installed in the inclined section. The horizontal section and the inclined section are connected and transitioned according to the arc structure required for the installation and operation of the moving walkway equipment. When the escalator is in a horizontal running state, the inclined section is in a horizontal state and the horizontal section is in an inclined state.

[0052] The enclosure structure 705 of the steel bridge 704 is divided into upper and lower parts. The lower enclosure structure 705 encapsulates the main structure in a cavity, which plays a role in protecting the equipment from rain and dust. The upper enclosure structure 705 is a canopy, which plays a role in shielding pedestrians from wind, rain and sunlight.

[0053] Each steel bridge 704 is equipped with 1 upward moving walkway 701 and 1 downward moving walkway 702, with a safety passage 703 in the middle. The total width of the steel bridge 704 is 6m, and the width of each of the 3 passages is 2m. It is calculated and determined according to conditions such as the elevation of the land area 10, the water level drop, the climbing height of a single section of the escalator, and the horizontal distance between the land connection point of the land area 10 and the dock front line in the design practice. The width of the steel approach bridge and the number of parallel passages of each steel bridge 704 are determined according to the passenger flow.

[0054] In another technical solution, as Figure 8 shown, the fixed hinge support 608 is installed below the transition structure of the horizontal section and the inclined section of the variable moving walkway 7, and the vertical distance from the center of the hinge point to the horizontal section is equal to the vertical distance to the inclined section.

[0055] In the above technical solution, the fixed hinge support 608 is installed below the transition section structure, and it is ensured that the vertical distance from the center of the hinge point to the horizontal section is equal to the vertical distance to the inclined section. As Figure 8 shown, L1 = L2, that is, the vertical distances from the hinge point to the horizontal step surface and the inclined step surface are equal. Then, when the state of the moving walkway changes and the inclined section becomes horizontal, the height of the step surface from the bottom surface of the support remains unchanged, which means that the lap height between the step surface and the head lap device 604 remains unchanged. During this process, there is no need to adjust the lap height of the head lap device 604, which is beneficial to accurate docking.

[0056] In another technical solution, as Figure 9 andFigure 10 As shown, the sliding support 609 is installed at the tail of the inclined section of the variable moving walkway 7, and the sliding support 609 is arranged to support the steel bridge 704 to roll on the movable steel platform 5 when the inclination angle is adjusted. The height of the sliding support 609 is set to ensure that when the variable moving walkway 7 is in a horizontal state, the tail lapping device 605 is flush with the tread surface of the step board of the variable moving walkway 7.

[0057] In another technical solution, as Figures 11 to 14 shown, four automatic climbing systems are correspondingly arranged in each lifting building 4. The automatic climbing system includes: a column 11, which is fixedly arranged, and a concave vertical track 12 is arranged in the middle of the column 11; a bracket 13, which is fixedly arranged on the column 11 and multiple groups are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the track 12. A clamping groove 14 is arranged on the inner side of the bracket 13; the bracket 13 is a load-bearing device; the clamping groove 14 is used to support the hanging beam device 15; the hanging beam device 15 is slidably arranged on the track 12, and the hanging beam device 15 is detachably connected to the clamping groove 14 on the bracket 13; a pair of ratchet claws 151 are hingedly arranged in the hanging beam device 15, which cooperate with the clamping grooves 14 on a pair of brackets 13 on both sides. A pair of ratchet claws 151 are driven to rotate synchronously by a middle electric push rod 152; a spring locking device is also arranged outside the middle electric push rod 152. When the electric push rod fails, the spring will automatically pop out the ratchet claws to prevent accidents caused by misoperation; a pair of stop blocks 153 are also arranged in the hanging beam device 15 corresponding to the lower part of a pair of ratchet claws 151; a movable platform main beam 16 is also slidably arranged on the track 12 and is located directly below the hanging beam device 15. When the dock is operating normally, the movable platform main beam 16 is stably placed on the placing beam 18. A placing beam 18 is arranged on the lower bottom surface of the movable platform main beam 16, and its two ends are respectively placed on a pair of brackets 13 on both sides. The placing beam 18 is connected by a translation oil cylinder 19 installed at the bottom of the movable platform main beam 16 to drive the placing beam 18 to be horizontally far away from or close to the bracket 13 along the movable platform main beam 16. The placing beam 18 is suspended at the bottom of the movable platform main beam 16 and can be translated along the main beam. When the dock is operating normally, it is placed on the bracket 13 to bear the load of the movable platform. The movable platform main beam 16 is connected to the hanging beam device 15 through a main lifting oil cylinder 17, and the vertical displacement of the hanging beam device 15 and the movable platform main beam 16 is completed through the telescopic movement of the oil cylinder; the movable steel platform 5 is horizontally connected to the four movable platform main beams 16 corresponding to the four automatic climbing systems and climbs with the climbing of the movable platform main beam 16.

[0058] In the above technical solution, the working principle of the automatic climbing system: when the dock is working normally, the movable platform main beam 16 is placed on the placing beam 18, and the placing beam 18 is placed on the bracket 13. When it is necessary to adjust the elevation of the movable platform, as Figure 12As shown, start the main hoisting oil cylinder 17 to lift the hanging beam device 15 above the upper-level corbel 13. As Figure 13 shown, start the electric push rod 603 inside the hanging beam device 15 to extend, extend the pawl 151, limit the position of the pawl 151 through the stop block 153 to prevent it from flipping upwards, and then start the main hoisting oil cylinder 17 to contract, so that the pawl 151 buckles the card slot 14. Continue to contract the main hoisting oil cylinder 17 to lift the movable platform main beam 16 to a certain height, start the translation oil cylinder 19 to contract, and make the resting beam 18 translate inwards towards the platform, and the resting beam 18 gets out of the range of the corbel 13. As Figure 14 shown, continue to contract the main hoisting oil cylinder 17 to further lift the movable platform main beam 16 above the intermediate corbel 13, start the translation oil cylinder 19 to extend, and make the resting beam 18 translate outwards above the corbel 13. Extend the main hoisting oil cylinder 17 to place the movable platform beam and the resting beam 18 on the intermediate corbel 13. During the whole process, the 4 sets of automatic climbing systems act synchronously to complete the automatic climbing action of the movable platform from the lower-level corbel 13 to the intermediate corbel 13. Repeat such actions to realize the lifting and transfer of the movable steel platform 5 between different elevations.

[0059] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been disclosed as above, it is not limited to the applications listed in the specification and embodiments. It can be fully applied to various fields suitable for the present invention. For those familiar with the field, other modifications can be easily achieved.
