[0002] Currently, in shipbuilding, there are no direct joints between bulb flats and T-sections. Generally, the T-sections and bulb flats are broken at both ends of the plate and joined by adding elbow plates at both ends. This joining method uses increased web height to ensure structural continuity. Since only the web is continuous and the plate is broken, the elbow plate height needs to be increased significantly.

[0029] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that the terms "longitudinal", "lateral", "up", "down", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this invention.

[0030] like Figures 1-4As shown, this embodiment provides a docking structure for a ship's bulb flat steel and a T-section. Based on the current realities of ship design and manufacturing, this invention proposes a novel ship structural design node, composed of bulb flat steel 1, T-section 5, transition panel 9, transition web 8, and triangular transition plate 4. The transition structure of this invention does not directly connect the two profiles; instead, it connects them through a transition structure. Since both bulb flat steel 1 and T-section 5 are composed of a panel and a web, the transition structure connects the panel and web of T-section 5 and bulb flat steel 1 respectively. Bulb flat steel 1 is somewhat special; the bulbous end is its panel, and the panel's shape is also unique—a circular structure. Therefore, special consideration is needed for force transmission.

[0031] The specific joint structure between the ship's bulb flat steel and T-section steel in this implementation includes:

[0032] Transition panel 9; the transition panel 9 is a variable thickness plate, which is rarely used in ship design. The transition panel 9 connects the side of the T-profile panel 6 and the side of the bulb flat steel panel 2. The thickness of the transition panel 9 gradually increases along the direction from the bulb flat steel 1 to the T-profile 5. The length of the transition panel 9 along the direction from the bulb flat steel 1 to the T-profile 5 is 5 times the difference between the height of the T-profile 5 and the height of the bulb flat steel 1. The thickness of the side of the transition panel 9 connecting to the T-profile panel 6 is equal to the thickness of the T-profile panel 6. The side of the transition panel 9 connecting to the bulb flat steel panel 2 has a rectangular structure, with a thickness equal to 0.7 times the thickness of the bulb flat steel panel 2 and a width equal to 0.9 times the width of the bulb flat steel panel 2. Figure 3 As shown, the width of the bulb flat steel panel 2 is b, the thickness of the bulb flat steel 1 is a, and the width of the transition panel 9 is 0.9b and the thickness is 0.7a. This is because the thickness is 0.7 times the thickness of the bulb flat steel panel 2. When the cross-section adopts this geometric design, most of the area of ​​the bulb flat steel panel 2 can overlap with the area of ​​the transition panel 9, which can transmit force to a greater extent and ensure structural continuity. At the same time, the corners are welded to make a good transition between non-overlapping parts.

[0033] Triangular transition plate 4; The triangular transition plate 4 is triangular in shape. Since the T-profile panel 6 and the bulb flat steel panel 2 have different styles, the T-profile panel 6 has a double-sided structure on both sides of the web, while the bulb flat steel panel 2 has a single-sided structure on the top of the web. Therefore, in order to maintain a good transition, a transition is made on the T-profile panel 6 to the smooth side of the bulb flat steel panel 2. The thickness of the triangular transition plate 4 is equal to the thickness of the T-profile panel 6, which serves to continue the transition of the T-profile panel 6 to the bulb head of the bulb flat steel 1. The length of the triangular transition plate 4 is 1.5 times that of the transition panel 9. The length of the transition panel 9 (that is, the transition web 8) is e, and the length of the triangular transition plate 4 is 1.5e. One side of the triangular transition plate 4 is aligned with the T-profile panel 6.

[0034] The transverse cross-section of the transition panel 9 is a right-angled trapezoidal structure, and the transverse cross-section of the triangular transition plate 4 is a right-angled triangle structure. One right-angled side of the triangular transition plate 4 is connected to one side of the transition panel 9.

[0035] Transition web 8; the transition web 8 connects the T-profile web 7 and the bulb flat steel web 3. The length of the transition web 8 along the distance from the bulb flat steel 1 to the T-profile 5 is equal to the length of the transition panel 9. The longitudinal section of the transition web 8 is a direct trapezoidal structure, with one side connected to the bulb flat steel web 3 and the other side connected to the T-profile web 7. The height of the side of the transition web 8 connected to the bulb flat steel web 3 is equal to the height of the bulb flat steel web 3, and the height of the side of the transition web 8 connected to the T-profile web 7 is equal to the height of the T-profile web 7. The length of the transition web 8 is 5 times the height difference between the bulb flat steel 1 and the T-profile 5. The height of the bulb flat steel 1 is c, and the height of the T-profile 5 is d. Generally, in this type of butt joint, the height of the T-profile 5 is lower than that of the bulb flat steel 1, so the length of the web is 5*(cd). In ordinary structural designs, the transition length is generally 4 times the plate thickness difference. Due to the special structural transition of this invention, the transition length is increased, which is more conducive to force transmission.

[0036] Welding is used to fill the transition area after the ball head and panel are butt-jointed. The welding area is mainly concentrated at the junction of the transition panel 9 and the ball head of the bulb flat steel 1. Because the bulb flat steel panel 2 is circular and the transition panel 9 is rectangular, some areas are not perfectly joined during butt-jointing, requiring welding for a smooth transition connection. The weld leg width between the bulb flat steel panel 2 and the transition panel 9 is 0.2 times the width of the bulb flat steel panel 2. The weld leg length at the end of the triangular transition plate 4 and at the arm length of the elbow plate of the triangular transition plate 4 is 8mm. The bevel of the transition web 8 is V-shaped, facing the side of the bulb flat steel panel 2. Both sides of the transition web 8, the side where the bulb flat steel web 3 meets the transition web 8, and the side where the T-shaped web 7 meets the transition web 8 all have V-shaped bevels. The bevel of the transition panel 9 is V-shaped, facing the upper part of the butt weld, and both sides of the transition panel 9 have V-shaped bevels.

[0037] Although the above embodiments have provided a detailed description of the present invention, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that modifications or improvements can be made based on the disclosure of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention, and such modifications and improvements are all within the spirit and scope of the present invention.
