Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of transshipment barges, and more particularly to a transshipment barge capable of maintaining the stability of the hull during loading. Background Art

[0002] The services provided by traditional cargo barges are limited by their single or proprietary uses and cannot mix-load multiple types of goods during transshipment because the goods are likely to be mixed together during mixed loading.

[0003] Chinese Patent Application CN114450235A discloses a mixed cargo barge or transport ship, comprising: a hull; a conveyor positioned along the central longitudinal axis or transverse axis of the hull; and a loading plate having an inner edge adjacent to the conveyor, such that the loading plate is controllably tilted, and when tilted, the bulk goods loaded on the loading plate are allowed to fall onto the conveyor for unloading. The loading plate is located on each side of the conveyor. The loading plate is segmented in a direction along the conveyor or transverse to the conveyor, and adjacent segments are pivotable to provide various ways to fold and retract the segmented loading plate, thus providing various loading spaces in the hull or on the deck for transporting mixed goods. The conveyor can be a V-belt conveyor or a screw conveyor.

[0004] Although the above solution realizes the mixed loading of goods, in most cases, the goods transported by the transshipment barge are relatively single. Before transporting bulk materials through the transshipment barge, the bulk materials include grains, sands, steels, etc. Generally, the goods are transported into the cargo hold through a cargo conveyor belt, and the goods entering the cargo hold will accumulate in one place of the cargo hold. As the stockpile of goods accumulates, the hull will tilt. To avoid the above situation, in the prior art, manual labor is mostly used to level the goods in the cargo hold, which is time-consuming and laborious and cannot evenly distribute the goods in the cargo hold automatically. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the above problems, a transfer barge is provided which can maintain the stability of the hull during loading. When loading starts, the auxiliary feeding device does not operate. After a period of time, the auxiliary feeding device starts to operate, and receives the cargo at the feed port and drives the received cargo to the end of the cargo hold. During this process, the hull is prone to tilt along its own length direction, so a monitoring unit is required to monitor the inclination of the hull. When the monitoring unit detects that the inclination of the hull has reached a maximum value, the belt conveyor in the allocation unit is started, driving the scraper to rotate. The rotating scraper can drive the cargo at the bottom of the cargo hold to move, thereby realizing the displacement of the cargo in the cargo hold. As the belt conveyor operates, the inclination of the hull gradually decreases. By repeating the above steps, the cargo in the cargo hold can be evenly spread over the cargo hold, thus preventing the hull from tilting during loading and improving the loading capacity of the cargo hold.

[0006] To solve the problems of the prior art, the present invention provides a transshipping barge capable of maintaining the stability of the hull during loading, comprising a hull and a cargo hold; the transshipping barge also comprises a monitoring unit and a deployment unit; the monitoring unit is arranged in the hull, and the monitoring unit is used to monitor the actual inclination of the hull in the length direction of the hull, and a maximum inclination is set; the deployment unit is arranged in the cargo hold along the length direction of the hull, and when the actual inclination is greater than or equal to the maximum inclination, the deployment unit is activated, and the deployment unit transports the cargo at a lower position in the cargo hold to a higher position.

[0007] Preferably, the monitoring unit includes a distance measuring device and a follow-up device; the follow-up device is arranged inside the hull along the length direction of the hull, the follow-up device is a "U"-shaped structure, and there are floating parts at both ends of the follow-up device, and the floating parts move along the height direction of the hull when the hull tilts along its own length direction; two distance measuring devices are provided, and the two distance measuring devices are respectively arranged at both ends of the follow-up device, and the measuring end of the distance measuring device points to the floating part, and the distance measuring device is used to measure the distance value from its position to the floating part.

[0008] Preferably, the two distance measuring devices measure the distance values a1 and a2 respectively, and the slope k1 is calculated from a1 and a2. The standard slope is assumed to be k0, and the deployment unit is activated when k1 is greater than or equal to k0.

[0009] Preferably, the deployment unit includes a scraper and a belt conveyor; the bottom of the cargo warehouse gradually decreases from top to bottom along the height direction of the cargo warehouse, and the belt conveyor is arranged on the side wall of the cargo warehouse whose size gradually decreases along the length direction of the cargo warehouse, and the belt conveyor is an annular structure, and one side of the belt conveyor faces into the cargo warehouse; a plurality of scrapers are provided, and the scrapers are evenly arranged on the belt conveyor around the annular extension direction of the belt conveyor.

[0010] Preferably, the transfer barge further includes a material distributing device which is arranged in the cargo hold. The material distributing device divides the cargo hold into two spaces along the length direction of the cargo hold and can guide two different types of goods into two storage spaces respectively.

[0011] Preferably, the transfer barge further includes a balancing device which is arranged inside the hull. The balancing device corrects the attitude of the hull when the hull tilts along its own width direction.

[0012] Preferably, the balancing device includes a monitoring device and an adjusting device. The monitoring device is arranged inside the hull along the width direction of the hull. The adjusting device is arranged below the monitoring device along the width direction of the hull. When the monitoring device detects that the hull tilts along its own width direction, the adjusting device adjusts the tilt of the hull in its own width direction by introducing external water into itself.

[0013] Preferably, the transfer barge further includes an auxiliary feeding device which is arranged in the cargo hold along the length direction of the cargo hold. The auxiliary feeding device is located above the dispensing unit. There is a feeding port at the upper part of the cargo hold. The auxiliary feeding unit is used to receive the goods falling at the feeding port and convey the goods to both ends of the cargo hold along the length direction of the cargo hold.

[0014] Preferably, the transfer barge further includes a discharging unit which is arranged at the bottom of the cargo hold. After the discharging unit is opened, the goods in the cargo hold can be discharged intermittently.

[0015] Preferably, the discharging unit includes a metering discharging device, a driving device and a belt conveyor. The metering discharging device is arranged at the bottom of the cargo hold and can discharge the goods in the cargo hold intermittently. The driving device is arranged on one side of the metering discharging device and is used to drive the metering discharging device to operate. The belt conveyor is arranged below the metering discharging device along the length direction of the cargo hold and is used to receive the goods discharged by the metering discharging device and send the goods out of the cargo hold.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the present invention compared with the prior art are:

[0017] The present invention sets a monitoring unit and a deployment unit. When loading just starts, the auxiliary feeding device does not operate. After a period of time, the auxiliary feeding device starts to operate, and the auxiliary feeding device receives the cargo at the feed port and drives the received cargo to the end of the cargo hold. In this process, the hull is prone to tilt along its own length direction, so the monitoring unit is required to monitor the inclination of the hull. When the monitoring unit detects that the inclination of the hull reaches a maximum value, the belt conveyor in the deployment unit is started, driving the scraper to rotate. The rotating scraper can drive the cargo at the bottom of the cargo hold to move, thereby realizing the displacement of the cargo in the cargo hold. With the operation of the belt conveyor, the inclination of the hull gradually decreases. The above steps are repeated, so that the cargo in the cargo hold can be evenly spread over the cargo hold, thus preventing the hull from tilting during loading and improving the loading capacity of the cargo hold.

Detailed implementation manners

[0030] To further understand the features, technical means, specific purposes and functions achieved by the present invention, the present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the drawings and specific implementation manners.

[0031] Refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 8 : A transshipment barge that can maintain the stability of the hull during loading, including a hull 1 and a cargo hold 2; the transshipment barge further includes a monitoring unit 3 and a dispatching unit 4; the monitoring unit 3 is arranged inside the hull 1, and the monitoring unit 3 is used to monitor the actual inclination of the hull 1 in the length direction of the hull 1 and has a maximum inclination; the dispatching unit 4 is arranged in the cargo hold 2 along the length direction of the hull 1, and when the actual inclination is greater than or equal to the maximum inclination, the dispatching unit 4 is activated, and the dispatching unit 4 conveys the goods at the lower position in the cargo hold 2 to the higher position.

[0032] The cargo in the present invention refers to bulk material, i.e. sand, gravel, etc. The length direction of the hull 1 is parallel to the length direction of the cargo hold 2. A feed port is provided on the top of the cargo hold 2, and a feed cover 21 is provided on the feed port. When feeding is required, the feed cover 21 is opened. When feeding, it is inevitable that the weight of one side of the cargo hold 2 is greater than the other side. Since the cargo hold 2 is a long strip structure, the hull 1 will be higher in front and lower in the back, or lower in front and higher in the back, that is, the hull 1 is tilted in its own length direction, and there is a difference in height between the bow and the stern. When the actual inclination of the hull 1 increases continuously with the progress of feeding until it reaches the maximum inclination, the allocation unit 4 is activated at this time, and the allocation unit 4 transports the goods at a lower position in the cargo hold 2 to a higher position, so that the accumulation amount of goods at a lower position in the cargo hold 2 is reduced. At the same time, under the transportation of the allocation unit 4, the accumulation amount of goods at a higher position in the cargo hold 2 gradually increases, so that the weight difference at both ends of the cargo hold 2 gradually decreases, thereby ensuring that the hull 1 will not tilt significantly in its own length direction, thereby ensuring the safety of the hull 1 during loading.

[0033] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The monitoring unit 3 includes a distance measuring device 31 and a follow-up device 32; the follow-up device 32 is arranged inside the hull 1 along the length direction of the hull 1, and the follow-up device 32 is a "U"-shaped structure. There are floating parts at both ends of the follow-up device 32, and the floating parts move along the height direction of the hull 1 when the hull 1 tilts along its own length direction; two distance measuring devices 31 are provided, and the two distance measuring devices 31 are respectively arranged at both ends of the follow-up device 32, and the measuring end of the distance measuring device 31 points to the floating part, and the distance measuring device 31 is used to measure the distance value from its position to the floating part.

[0034] The follow-up device 32 includes a first communication pipe 321 and a first follow-up plate 322. The first communication pipe 321 is arranged in the hull 1 along the length direction of the hull 1. The first communication pipe 321 has a "U" - shaped structure. There are two first follow-up plates 322, and the two first follow-up plates 322 are slidably arranged at both ends of the first communication pipe 321 along the height direction of the hull 1. The distance measuring device 31 includes a fixed bracket 311 and a first distance measuring instrument 312. The fixed bracket 311 is fixedly arranged at the end of the first communication pipe 321, and the first distance measuring instrument 312 is vertically arranged on the fixed bracket 311. The output end of the first distance measuring instrument 312 vertically points to the first follow-up plate 322. The floating part of the follow-up device 32 refers to the first follow-up plate 322. The two first follow-up plates 322 and the first communication pipe 321 form a sealed cavity, and the sealed cavity is filled with water. When the hull 1 tilts along its own length direction, the first communication pipe 321 tilts synchronously with the hull 1. Thus, the water in the first communication pipe 321 will flow, that is, the liquid levels at both ends of the first communication pipe 321 are in a state of one end being high and the other end being low. Thus, the two first follow-up plates 322 located at both ends of the first communication pipe 321 will move, that is, the distances between the two first follow-up plates 322 and their corresponding distance measuring devices 31 are different. The values measured by the two distance measuring devices 31 for the corresponding first follow-up plates 322 are respectively recorded as a1 and a2. When the hull 1 does not tilt, a1 is equal to a2. When the hull 1 tilts, a1 and a2 are no longer the same. By calculating the difference between a1 and a2, the tilting situation of the hull 1 can be obtained, thereby realizing the monitoring of the tilt degree of the hull 1.

[0035] Refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 : The two distance measuring devices 31 respectively measure the distance values a1 and a2, calculate the slope k1 from a1 and a2. Let the standard slope be k0, and when k1 is greater than or equal to k0, the deployment unit 4 is activated.

[0036] The slope k1 refers to the actual tilt degree of the hull 1, and the slope k0 refers to the maximum tilt degree of the hull 1. The distance between the first distance measuring instruments 312 in the two distance measuring devices 31 is always fixed, and this distance is denoted as b. When calculating the slope k1, the slope k1 = ∣a1 - a2∣ / b. Since b is a fixed value, when the tilt degree of the hull 1 becomes larger and larger, the value of ∣a1 - a2∣ will also become larger and larger, and thus the slope k1 will also become larger and larger. When k1 is greater than the standard slope k0, the deployment unit 4 is activated.

[0037] Refer to Figure 8:The dispensing unit 4 includes a squeegee 41 and a belt conveyor 42; the bottom of the cargo hold 2 gradually narrows from top to bottom along the height direction of the cargo hold 2, the belt conveyor 42 is arranged on the side wall of the cargo hold 2 with a gradually decreasing size along the length direction of the cargo hold 2, the belt conveyor 42 is of an annular structure, and one side of the belt conveyor 42 faces the inside of the cargo hold 2; a plurality of squeegees 41 are provided, and the squeegees 41 are evenly arranged on the belt conveyor 42 along the annular extension direction of the belt conveyor 42.

[0038] The belt conveyor 42 includes a first rotary driver 421, a conveyor belt 422 and conveyor wheels 423. A plurality of conveyor wheels 423 are provided, and the conveyor wheels 423 are arranged on the side wall below the cargo hold 2 along the length direction of the cargo hold 2. The conveyor belt 422 is sleeved on the conveyor wheels 423, and the conveyor belt 422 is in driving cooperation with the conveyor wheels 423. The first rotary driver 421 is arranged at the end of one of the conveyor wheels 423, and the conveyor wheel 423 is located at one end in the length direction of the cargo hold 2. The squeegees 41 are evenly distributed on the conveyor belt 422. The first rotary driver 421 is preferably a servo motor. After the first rotary driver 421 is started, the first rotary driver 421 drives the conveyor belt 422 to rotate through the conveyor wheels 423, so that the squeegees 41 on the conveyor belt 422 drive the goods in the cargo hold 2 to move.

[0039] Refer to Figure 3 :The transshipment barge further includes a material distribution device 5. The material distribution device 5 is arranged in the cargo hold 2. The material distribution device 5 divides the cargo hold 2 into two spaces along the length direction of the cargo hold 2 and can guide two different types of goods into two storage spaces respectively.

[0040] The material distribution device 5 includes a partition 51, a material distribution plate 52 and a second rotary driver 53. The partition 51 is fixedly arranged in the cargo hold 2 along the vertical direction of the cargo hold 2. The partition 51 divides the cargo hold 2 into two storage spaces, and the two storage spaces can store different goods separately. The material distribution plate 52 is rotatably arranged above the partition 51. The second rotary driver 53 is arranged on the side wall of the cargo hold 2. The second rotary driver 53 is used to drive the material distribution plate 52 to rotate. The second rotary driver 53 is preferably a servo motor. After the second rotary driver 53 is started, the second rotary driver 53 drives the material distribution plate 52 to tilt towards one of the storage spaces, so that the goods falling from the feed port can fall into the designated storage space under the guidance of the material distribution plate 52, enabling the cargo hold 2 to load two different goods simultaneously.

[0041] Refer to Figure 8 :The transshipment barge further includes a balancing device 6. The balancing device 6 is arranged in the hull 1. The balancing device 6 corrects the attitude of the hull 1 when the hull 1 tilts along its own width direction.

[0042] Refer to Figure 2, Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 : The balancing device 6 includes a monitoring device 61 and an adjusting device 62; the monitoring device 61 is arranged inside the hull 1 along the width direction of the hull 1; the adjusting device 62 is arranged below the monitoring device 61 along the width direction of the hull 1. When the monitoring device 61 detects that the hull 1 is tilted along its own width direction, the adjusting device 62 adjusts the tilt of the hull 1 in its own width direction by introducing external water into its interior.

[0043] When loading the cargo hold 2 through the material dividing device 5, there will be a situation where there is cargo on one side of the cargo hold 2 but not on the other side. At this time, the hull 1 is likely to tilt in its own width direction. The monitoring device 61 includes a second connecting pipe 611 and a second follower plate 612. The second connecting pipe 611 is a "U"-shaped structure. There are two second follower plates 612. The two second follower plates 612 are respectively slidably arranged at the ends of the second connecting pipe 611 along the height direction of the cargo hold 2. A second rangefinder is vertically arranged above the end of the second connecting pipe 611. The ranging end of the second rangefinder points to the second The monitoring method of the follower plate 612 and the second rangefinder is the same as that of the first rangefinder 312, and the calculation method of the inclination of the hull 1 is also the same, which will not be repeated here. When the monitoring device 61 detects that the hull 1 is tilted in its own width direction, the monitoring device 61 activates the adjusting device 62. The adjusting device 62 includes ballast tanks. The ballast tanks are respectively arranged on both sides of the hull 1 along the length direction of the hull 1. The ballast tanks are filled with water. When the hull 1 tilts, the water in the ballast tank on the lower side is discharged into the ballast tank on the higher side, so that the tilt of the hull 1 can be balanced.

[0044] Reference Figure 8 and Figure 10 : The transfer barge also includes an auxiliary feeding device 7, which is arranged in the cargo hold 2 along the length direction of the cargo hold 2. The auxiliary feeding device 7 is located above the allocation unit 4. A feeding port is provided at the upper part of the cargo hold 2. The auxiliary feeding unit is used to receive the cargo falling from the feeding port and transport the cargo to the two ends of the cargo hold 2 along the length direction of the cargo hold 2.

[0045] Since the feed port is arranged in the middle of the cargo hold 2, when feeding the cargo hold 2, if the auxiliary feed device 7 is not provided, the cargo will be accumulated in the center of the cargo hold 2, and the cargo continuously accumulated in the center of the cargo hold 2 will not cause the hull 1 to tilt, and the allocation unit 4 will not be activated. However, the continuous accumulation of cargo may easily lead to the accumulation of cargo blocking the feed port when the cargo hold 2 is not full, thus affecting the subsequent feeding. In order to avoid the above situation, the auxiliary feed device 7 is provided, and the auxiliary feed device 7 includes The slide 71, the guide rod 72, the cargo trolley 73, the unloading plate 74 and the third rotation driver 75, the slide 71 is arranged on the inner wall of the cargo warehouse 2 along the length direction of the cargo warehouse 2, the slide 71 is located above the partition 51, two slides 71 of equal length are arranged in the length direction of the cargo warehouse 2, the guide rod 72 is arranged in the cargo warehouse 2 along the length direction of the cargo warehouse 2, the guide rod 72 is located above the slide 71, a slider is arranged on the slide 71, the cargo trolley 73 is fixedly arranged on the slider, and the slide 71 drives the cargo trolley 73 along the cargo warehouse 2 through the slider. The unloading plate 74 is rotatably arranged at the bottom of the cargo trolley 73, and the third rotary drive 75 is arranged on the cargo trolley 73. The third rotary drive 75 is used to drive the unloading plate 74 to rotate. When the unloading plate 74 is in a horizontal state, the cargo trolley 73 can receive the cargo. When the unloading plate 74 is in a vertical state, the cargo in the cargo trolley 73 falls to the bottom of the cargo warehouse 2. The third rotary drive 75 is preferably a servo motor. Since two slides 71 are provided, two cargo trolleys 73 are provided in the cargo warehouse 2. Car 73, two cargo trolleys 73 run alternately, and when feeding into the warehouse 2, the feed cover 21 on the top of the warehouse 2 is in an open state, and only one cargo trolley 73 can receive the cargo entering from the feed port at a time. When the cargo trolley 73 is full, it will move to one end of the warehouse 2, and the other trolley will move to the bottom of the feed port to receive the cargo, and after it is full, it will drive the cargo to move to the other end, so that the two ends of the warehouse 2 can be filled, so that the cargo in the warehouse 2 can be evenly spread over the warehouse 2.

[0046] Reference Figure 6 The transfer barge also includes a discharge unit 8, which is arranged at the bottom of the cargo hold 2. After the discharge unit 8 is opened, the cargo in the cargo hold 2 can be discharged intermittently.

[0047] The discharging unit 8 controls the intermittent discharge of the goods in the cargo hold 2, thereby avoiding the situation in which excessive discharge of goods causes blockage during traditional discharging.

[0048] Reference Figures 5 - 9:The discharging unit 8 includes a metering discharging device 81, a driving device 82 and a belt conveyor 83; the metering discharging device 81 is arranged at the bottom of the storage bin 2, and the metering discharging device 81 can intermittently discharge the goods in the storage bin 2; the driving device 82 is arranged on one side of the metering discharging device 81, and the driving device 82 is used to drive the metering discharging device 81 to operate; the belt conveyor 83 is arranged below the metering discharging device 81 along the length direction of the storage bin 2, and the belt conveyor 83 is used to receive the goods discharged by the metering discharging device 81 and send the goods out of the storage bin 2.

[0049] The quantitative discharging device 81 includes a first quantitative plate 811 and a second quantitative plate 812. There is a discharging port at the bottom of the storage bin 2. The first quantitative plate 811 is arranged on the discharging port along the axial direction of the discharging port. A first discharging hole is penetrated through the first quantitative plate 811 along the axis of the first quantitative plate 811. The second quantitative plate 812 is rotatably arranged below the first quantitative plate 811 along the axis of the first quantitative plate 811. A second discharging hole is penetrated through the second quantitative plate 812 along the axis of the second quantitative plate 812. When the storage bin 2 stores materials, the first discharging hole and the second discharging hole neither coincide nor intersect, thus ensuring that the goods in the storage bin 2 will not leak out from the first discharging hole and the second discharging hole. Only when the first discharging hole and the second discharging hole coincide or intersect can the goods in the storage bin 2 be discharged. The driving device 82 includes a synchronous belt 821, a gear ring 822, a gear 823 and a fourth rotary driver 824. Since there are multiple discharging ports at the bottom of the storage bin 2, and one first quantitative plate 811 and one second quantitative plate 812 correspond to one discharging port. When storing materials, relative rotation needs to occur between the first quantitative plate 811 and the second quantitative plate 812. Thus, it is necessary to set the synchronous belt 821 to drive all the second quantitative plates 812 to rotate synchronously. The synchronous belt 821 is sleeved on all the second quantitative plates 812, and the synchronous belt 821 is in transmission cooperation with the second quantitative plate 812. A pressing wheel is arranged on one side of the second quantitative plate 812, and the pressing wheel can ensure stable transmission between the second quantitative plate 812 and the synchronous belt 821 even when the wrap angle is zero. The gear ring 822 is fixedly arranged on the second quantitative plate 812 along the axis of the second quantitative plate 812. The gear 823 is arranged on one side of the gear ring 822 along the axis of the gear ring 822. The gear 823 meshes with the gear ring 822. The fourth rotary driver 824 is arranged on the gear 823, and the fourth rotary driver 824 drives the gear ring 822 to rotate through the gear 823. The second quantitative plate 812 fixedly connected to the gear ring 822 is located at the end of the synchronous belt 821 in the length direction of the storage bin 2. The fourth rotary driver 824 is preferably a servo motor. After the fourth rotary driver 824 drives the gear ring 822 to rotate through the gear 823, the synchronous belt 821 can drive all the second quantitative plates 812 to rotate. Thus, the second quantitative plate 812 rotates relative to the first quantitative plate 811. When the first discharging hole intersects or coincides with the second discharging hole, the goods in the storage bin 2 can fall onto the belt conveyor 83. When the first discharging hole and the second discharging hole neither coincide nor intersect, the goods in the storage bin 2 cannot fall onto the belt conveyor 83, ensuring orderly discharging of the storage bin 2.
