AI Technical Summary
In existing technologies, the floating body docking operation at sea is difficult to maintain a stable connection under complex, variable and harsh sea conditions, resulting in large relative displacement and severe swaying between ships, posing safety hazards and low operational efficiency, and failing to meet the needs of large transport ships for rapid and reliable unloading.
The system employs a floating hull top-mounting and alignment device, including a top-mounting structure and a centering arm. Through the combined design of hinged lugs, pin seats, top-mounting columns, and centering grooves, it achieves stable top-mounting between floating bodies. The buffer structure absorbs impact energy, and the cooperation between the centering arm and the groove prevents relative movement, ensuring a fast and reliable connection.
Stable mating between floats was achieved under complex sea conditions, avoiding mutual collisions, protecting the float structure, ensuring the rapid and reliable unloading of equipment and supplies from large transport vessels, and improving operational safety and efficiency.

When the two floats are close to each other, a mooring line is dropped. S3: Adjust the position by relying on the power of the docking float itself and the mooring force of the cable, so that the centering arm of the docking float is inserted into the centering groove of the transport float, and tighten the cable to fix the relative position of the two floats. S4: A ramp is erected to form a roll-on / roll-off channel between the transport float and the docking float, allowing the docking float to travel back and forth and land on the beach to transport equipment and supplies.
