Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of single-point hoisting, in particular to a rotating wind sail single-point hoisting structure and a hoisting method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] The rotating wind sail, also known as rotor wind sail or rotating cylinder wind sail, works on the principle of Magnus effect. When wind blows through the rotating wind sail, high pressure is generated on one side of the wind sail, and low pressure is generated on the other side, thereby generating a thrust perpendicular to the airflow direction to push the ship forward. This technology can effectively reduce engine load, improve ship energy efficiency, and reduce fuel consumption and carbon emissions. A rotating wind sail is usually installed on some ships, and the single-point hoisting of the high-value equipment is difficult in the prior art, as follows:

[0003] 1. According to the design scheme of the manufacturer, the rotating wind sail has only one lifting lug for single-point hoisting. Since the equipment is assembled on a precast cradle on the wharf, the lower opening of the equipment is fixed on the track of the cradle, and the equipment is prone to rotate during lifting, which causes interference between the lower opening of the equipment and the track, and further causes lifting difficulty.

[0004] 2. Since the lifting point is inside the equipment, the hoisting belt must pass through the top hatch of the rotating wind sail and be connected with the lifting lug of the equipment. However, since the diameter of the hole is only about 1000mm when designed, and the center of gravity of the equipment is not at the center, the equipment will be inclined in the natural state after being lifted. In theory, the distance between the hoisting belt and the edge of the top hole is only about 175mm, and the eccentricity during lifting can easily cause the equipment to shake, affecting the safety of the equipment and personnel.

[0005] 3. After the rotating wind sail is lifted, it is hoisted to the ship by a large floating crane. However, due to uncontrollable factors such as tide, weather, and waves caused by the navigation of other ships on the Yangtze River, the hoisting belt may come into contact with the edge of the top hatch. The outer cylinder of the equipment is made of glass fiber reinforced plastic, which can easily damage the top of the rotating wind sail, and further maintenance of the glass fiber reinforced plastic is required.

[0006] 4. The equipment needs to be hoisted to the installed base and track on the ship. However, the gap between the lower opening roller of the equipment and the track is only 20mm, and the AUD base bolt holes at the four corners of the equipment need to be aligned with the base bolt holes on the ship. There are a total of 200 bolt holes that need to be aligned, and the precision requirement for hoisting and installing the equipment is very high.

[0007] In summary, the present application provides a rotating wind sail single-point hoisting structure and a hoisting method thereof, which can accurately and quickly complete the hoisting of the rotating wind sail. SUMMARY

[0052] The embodiment also relates to a hoisting method using the above-mentioned single-point hoisting structure of the rotating sail, comprising the following steps:

[0053] S1: installing the wharf track and the wharf AUD base 14 on the wharf test site, installing the ship track 17 and the ship AUD base 18 on the ship, and prefabricating positioning pins 28 matched with the four corners of the wharf AUD base 14 and the ship AUD base 18.

[0054] S2: welding the first guide plate 15, the second guide plate 16 and the third guide plate 19 on the surfaces of the wharf AUD base 14 and the ship AUD base 18 respectively.

[0055] S3: welding the second lifting lug 20 around the wharf test site and the ship, and connecting the second lifting lug 20 and the rotating sail body 1 through the chain hoist 21.

[0056] S4: installing the top protection ring 22 at the top hatch opening of the rotating sail body 1.

[0057] S6: connecting the first shackle 3 and the first lifting lug 2, screwing the fixing bolt 12 into the corresponding fixing hole 11, connecting the corresponding two connecting seats 6 by screwing the fixing nut on the fixing bolt 12, connecting the two ends of the hoisting rope 4 with the first shackle 3 and the second shackle 5 respectively, adjusting the position of the connecting seat 6 to reduce the gap between the first shackle 3 and the second shackle 5 and the hoisting rope 4, and connecting the second shackle 5 and the hook of the large floating crane.

[0058] S7: the large floating crane hook hoisting, in the process of lowering, the hook slowly down, down to the roller frame device from the track 400mm, and then slowly down, so that the roller frame device from the track 500mm, stop down, the positioning pin 28 is inserted into the AUD base, and then the hook continues to down, through the hand-operated hoist 21 and the traction rope to adjust the orientation of the rotating wind sail body 1, so that it is accurately positioned.

[0059] Working principle: when the hoisting structure is used, the ears 10 of the two connecting seats 6 are correspondingly connected, the fixing bolts 12 are screwed into the fixing holes 11, and the fixing nuts are screwed on, so that the ears 10 of the two connecting seats 6 are connected, thereby fixing the two connecting seats 6. At this time, the connecting part of the two connecting seats 6 divides the two ends of the hoisting rope 4 into the same length. After the connection is completed, the connecting seat 6 is pulled in the direction close to the first shackle 3 or the second shackle 5, so that the abutting wheel 9 moves on the surface of the hoisting rope 4, thereby reducing the gap between the hoisting rope 4 and the second shackle 5. Then the second shackle 5 is connected with the lifting end of the large floating crane, the rotating wind sail body 1 is lifted by the large floating crane, and the other end of the connecting seat 6 is installed and connected with the first shackle 3 in the same way. The length of the hoisting rope 4 at both ends is consistent, which reduces the rotation of the rotating wind sail body 1.

[0060] When hoisting, one end of the hand-operated hoist 21 on the wharf hoisting site is connected with the second lifting lug 20, and the lifting end is connected with the rotating wind sail body 1. The inclination and rotation of the rotating wind sail body 1 are controlled by the hand-operated hoist 21, and the curvature of the rotating wind sail body 1 during lifting and lowering is controlled by the hand-operated hoist 21 on the ship, so as to prevent the rotating wind sail body 1 from tilting after being lifted, which affects the safety of the equipment and personnel.

[0061] The top protection ring 22 is fixed by the positioning bolt. When the rotating wind sail body 1 is too close to the edge of the equipment due to uncontrollable factors, the top protection ring 22 avoids the direct contact between the hoisting rope 4 and the glass steel outer cylinder, which causes damage to the glass steel.

[0062] During the lowering process, the hook of the large floating crane is slowly lowered, and when the roller frame device of the equipment is lowered to about 400mm away from the ship track 17, the base of the rotating wind sail body 1 approaches the third guide plate 19 on the ship, and then slowly down to stop the roller frame device of the equipment from the ship track 17 about 50mm. After the positioning pin 28 is inserted into the AUD base 18 of the ship, the hook continues to down, the orientation of the rotating wind sail body 1 is adjusted by the hand-operated hoist 21, and finally it is accurately positioned to complete the hoisting work.

[0063] While embodiments of the application have been shown and described, it is to be understood that the embodiments described are merely exemplary of the principles and application of the present application. Numerous modifications and adaptions can be effected without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, which is not limited to the exact construction and arrangement described. It is intended, therefore, to cover all modifications and adaptions that fall within the scope of the claims and their equivalents.
