Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of ships, and in particular to a composite stern column structure. Background Art
[0002] The stern post of a ship refers to the structure located in front of the propeller and connected to the main hull. It is mainly composed of the thruster column and its stern hub on the thruster column. Ship specifications require that the thruster column have a certain rigidity, which is more specifically reflected in the minimum requirements for the cross-sectional length and cross-sectional thickness of the thruster column.
[0003] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 1 , the existing ship stern column is composed of a propeller column 31 formed by welding steel plates and a cast steel stern hub 32 firmly welded thereto. The propeller column 31 includes a hull plate 33 and an internal frame 34 for supporting the hull plate. Figure 3 As shown, the internal construction area 35 of the thruster column has a narrow space and is inconvenient to construct.
[0004] The thickness of the propeller column steel plate is relatively thick according to the specification requirements. The longer the ship is, the thicker the steel plate of the hull plate 33 is. For example, a 250-meter ship requires a steel plate thickness of no less than 40 mm. The tail column line usually has a two-way curvature, that is, the outer contour formed by the hull plate 33 needs to have a two-way curvature, and the hull plate 33 must be processed; processing the thick plate of the hull plate 33 requires pyrotechnics and cold pressing processes to achieve the required curvature, which takes a long time to process and has a large precision error.
[0005] The cast steel tail hub 32 is cast in a foundry, and a complex mold needs to be manufactured in advance according to the tail column line shape and the internal skeleton. The manufacturing period is long, and once a defect occurs, the entire casting is scrapped, resulting in a large cost loss. Summary of the invention

[0026] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a composite tail column structure includes a thruster column 10 and a tail hub 20 connected to the thruster column.
