Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of marine engineering equipment, and in particular relates to a marine hydraulic mechanical arm with wave compensation. Background Art

[0002] Marine operations such as the transfer of personnel and materials between ships and fixed offshore platforms or between ships will be disturbed by the ship's roll, pitch and heave movements caused by sea breezes, waves and ocean currents, which will cause relative movement between the operating equipment and the operating platform, which will not only increase the difficulty of the operation but also easily cause collision accidents.

[0003] Existing personnel and cargo transfer equipment between offshore platforms mostly utilizes a Stewart parallel platform and a tandem manipulator. Some employ compensation for lateral and longitudinal rotation and vertical heave, while others employ a lifting tower structure. However, existing solutions require bulky equipment, occupying significant space on the vessel. The increased initial height of the equipment complicates the transfer of personnel and cargo between the vessel and the transfer platform, posing safety risks. Furthermore, existing transfer equipment has limited reach, limited working space, and small turning angles and spans. This often fails to meet operational requirements, particularly in deepwater operations, such as those involving the boarding of offshore wind turbine operators and maintenance personnel, where the mother ship is unable to access large spans. Furthermore, most existing transfer equipment is limited to personnel transfer or light cargo transfer, and is incapable of transporting heavier equipment, such as generators and reducers in wind turbines requiring repair or replacement. Furthermore, existing marine manipulators often utilize a tandem structure, capable only of pitching each arm segment and rotating the entire arm, but not of swinging the arm itself. Few incorporate six-degree-of-freedom wave compensation, which can mitigate the effects of waves on the arm. Series mechanisms have the advantages of simple structure, low cost, simple control, and large motion range, and have been successfully applied in many fields, such as excavator arms and various machine tools. Compared with series mechanisms, research on parallel mechanisms started later. Parallel mechanisms have the advantages of high precision, high rigidity, and strong load-bearing capacity, and have obvious advantages in applications with large load capacities.

[0004] In summary, it is meaningful to develop a multifunctional marine hydraulic manipulator with active wave compensation function, small ship space occupation, light weight, large working space, good stability, and adaptability to various environments. Summary of the Invention
