[0044] The present application will be further described in detail below by specific embodiments in conjunction with the drawings.

[0045] In order to improve the stability of the sinking cylinder during floating towing and reduce its swing and sway, as shown in Figures 1 to 5 The present application provides a floating stability compartment device, which comprises a compartment body 1, an inflatable water stop belt 2 and a telescopic limiting structure 3.

[0046] The compartment body 1 is the main structure of the floating stability compartment device, which has a cavity 11 and a breather pipe 12. The bottom end of the cavity 11 has an open mouth 13, which serves as a channel connecting the inside and outside environments of the cavity 11 and allows the exchange of air and fluid. The breather pipe 12 is connected to the top of the cavity 11, through which air can be filled into or discharged from the cavity 11, so as to realize the regulation of the internal pressure of the cavity 11.

[0047] The inflatable water stop belt 2 surrounds the outer periphery of the compartment body 1. When the inflatable water stop belt 2 is in the inflated state, it can be in contact with the external circumferential surface, thereby forming a seal. When it is necessary to release the seal, only the air in the inflatable water stop belt 2 needs to be discharged to reduce its volume, so as to realize the separation from the external circumferential surface, which is convenient for the disassembly and redeployment of the floating stability compartment device.

[0048] The telescopic limiting structure 3 is arranged on the compartment body 1, and specifically comprises a telescopic driving member 31 and a limiting member 32. The fixed end of the telescopic driving member 31 is connected to the compartment body 1, and the movable end of the telescopic driving member 31 is connected to the limiting member 32. Through the telescopic action of the telescopic driving member 31, the limiting member 32 is controlled to move along the radial direction of the compartment body 1. When the limiting member 32 is extended and inserted into the external clamping groove, the stable floating compartment device is stably connected with the external structure, and reliable fixing in complex sea conditions is ensured.

[0049] In actual use, the stable floating compartment device of the present application is used in combination with the hollow cylinder 5. The hollow cylinder 5 is communicated at both ends, and the stable floating compartment device is arranged horizontally on the inside of the hollow cylinder 5, so as to divide the inside of the hollow cylinder 5 into the buoyancy chamber 51 and the water inlet chamber 52 arranged from top to bottom. The buoyancy chamber 51 is responsible for providing sufficient buoyancy, so as to ensure that the whole system can always float on the water surface when floating and dragging; the water inlet chamber 52 is used for loading stable water, and the loading amount of the stable water is adjusted by inflating or deflating the air pipe 12, so as to achieve the purpose of lowering the gravity center of the system, so as to reduce the swing of the hollow cylinder 5.

[0050] In actual operation, first, the stable floating compartment device is hoisted into the inside of the hollow cylinder 5, and then the limiting member 32 of the telescopic limiting structure 3 is driven to extend and be clamped with the clamping groove on the inside of the hollow cylinder 5, so as to realize the connection and installation of the stable floating compartment device. Then, the inflatable water stop belt 2 is inflated, so as to be inflated and adhered to the inner wall of the hollow cylinder 5, so as to divide the buoyancy chamber 51 and the water inlet chamber 52 arranged from top to bottom. Then, the air pipe 12 is opened, and the air in the water inlet chamber 52 and the cavity 11 is discharged under the action of gravity, and the external liquid immediately flows into the water inlet chamber 52, so as to form a stable water layer. By loading the stable water in the water inlet chamber 52, not only the gravity center height of the hollow cylinder 5 is lowered, and the moment when the hollow cylinder 5 swings and shakes is reduced, but also the water height of the hollow cylinder 5 is reduced, and the influence of the wind and wave on the hollow cylinder 5 is reduced, so as to improve the stability of the hollow cylinder 5. In addition, by inflating or deflating the air pipe 12, the loading amount of the stable water can also be adjusted, so as to adapt to different sea conditions.

[0051] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one specific embodiment of the present application, the compartment body 1 specifically comprises a top plate part 14, a side plate part 15 and a bottom plate part 16. The top plate part 14 is a top covering element of the cavity 11, and is connected to the top end of the side plate part 15; the bottom plate part 16 is connected to the bottom end of the side plate part 15, and the top plate part 14, the side plate part 15 and the bottom plate part 16 form the cavity 11, and the opening 13 is specifically arranged on the bottom plate part 16.

[0052] As shown in Figure 5As shown, in a specific embodiment of this application, the base plate portion 16 specifically includes an inner ring base plate portion and an outer ring base plate portion disposed on the same plane, and the opening 13 is an annular opening sandwiched between the inner ring base plate portion and the outer ring base plate portion.

[0053] When the floating stabilizing compartment tilts, the opening 13 minimizes gas leakage within the cavity 11, ensuring buoyancy stability during tilting. The space reserved in the cavity 11 allows for free movement of water, reducing the water seal height requirement for the hollow cylinder 5 during floating and towing, thus lowering the overall height of the floating stabilizing compartment and reducing material usage.

[0054] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown in a specific embodiment of this application, the side plate portion 15 is specifically a conical side plate portion, with the large end of the conical side plate portion connected to the top plate portion 14 and the small end of the conical side plate portion connected to the bottom plate portion 16. When the floating stabilizing compartment device needs to be hoisted into the hollow cylinder 5, the conical structure of the conical side plate portion can guide the floating stabilizing compartment device to smoothly enter the cylinder, avoiding jamming or collision problems, thereby improving the efficiency and safety of the hoisting process and reducing the difficulty and risk of operation.

[0055] like Figure 5 As shown in a specific embodiment of this application, the compartment body 1 further includes partitions 17 disposed within the cavity 11; there are multiple partitions 17, each partition 17 dividing the cavity 11 into multiple sub-cavities arranged along the circumferential direction. By dividing the cavity 11 into multiple sub-cavities through the partitions 17, the area of ​​the free water surface is significantly reduced, which helps to reduce the disturbance of the floating stabilizing compartment device due to fluctuations in the fluid, thereby enhancing the overall stability and enabling the floating stabilizing compartment device to maintain a more stable working state in complex and variable aquatic environments.

[0056] like Figure 2 As shown, in one specific embodiment of this application, the side plate portion 15 is provided with an installation groove 151, and the inflatable waterstop 2 is installed in the installation groove 151. By installing the inflatable waterstop 2 in the installation groove 151, a tight fit and firm connection between the two are achieved, which not only ensures that the inflatable waterstop 2 can fully exert its sealing performance, but also effectively prevents potential safety hazards caused by improper installation or loosening.

[0057] like Figure 2As shown in the drawings, in one specific embodiment of the present application, the telescopic limiting structure 3 further comprises a telescopic guide 33 connected to the top plate 14. The telescopic guide 33 has a guide groove 331 extending along the radial direction of the bulkhead body 1. Through the guidance of the guide groove 331, the limiting piece 32 can slide along a predetermined path, thereby achieving control of the telescopic movement of the limiting piece 32.

[0058] As shown in the drawings, Figure 3 As shown in the drawings, in one specific embodiment of the present application, the number of telescopic limiting structures 3 is multiple, and each telescopic limiting structure 3 is arranged in the circumferential direction and spaced from each other. By providing multiple telescopic limiting structures 3, the effective dispersion of the load can be achieved. When the limiting piece 32 performs telescopic movement, each telescopic limiting structure 3 can jointly bear the stress and impact force generated thereby, thereby avoiding damage or failure caused by excessive load borne by a single structure.

[0059] In one specific embodiment of the present application, the buoyancy stabilizing bulkhead device further comprises a lifting lug 4 connected to the bulkhead body 1 as a connecting piece, so as to facilitate the connection of the buoyancy stabilizing bulkhead device with hoisting equipment.

[0060] As shown in the drawings, Figures 6 to 8 As shown in the drawings, the present application also provides a buoyancy cylinder structure, which comprises a hollow cylinder 5 and the buoyancy stabilizing bulkhead device in the above-mentioned embodiments. The two ends of the hollow cylinder 5 are communicated, and the buoyancy stabilizing bulkhead device is arranged transversely inside the hollow cylinder 5 to divide the inside of the hollow cylinder 5 into a buoyancy chamber 51 and a water inlet chamber 52 arranged from top to bottom, and the water inlet chamber 52 is used to load the buoyancy stabilizing water.

[0061] In actual operation, first, the buoyancy stabilizing bulkhead device is hoisted into the inside of the hollow cylinder 5, and then the limiting piece 32 of the telescopic limiting structure 3 is driven to extend and be engaged with the clamping groove inside the hollow cylinder 5, thereby achieving the connection and installation of the buoyancy stabilizing bulkhead device. Next, the inflatable water stop belt 2 is inflated to expand and adhere to the inner wall of the hollow cylinder 5, thereby dividing the buoyancy chamber 51 and the water inlet chamber 52 arranged from top to bottom. Then, the air pipe 12 is opened, and the air in the water inlet chamber 52 and the cavity 11 is discharged by the action of gravity, and the external liquid immediately flows into the water inlet chamber 52 to form a stable water layer. By loading the stable water in the water inlet chamber 52, not only the height of the center of gravity of the hollow cylinder 5 is reduced, and the moment when the hollow cylinder 5 swings and shakes is reduced, but also the water height of the hollow cylinder 5 is reduced, and the influence of the wind and wave on the hollow cylinder 5 is reduced, thereby improving the stability of the hollow cylinder 5. In addition, by inflating or deflating the air pipe 12, the loading amount of the stable water can also be adjusted to adapt to different sea state levels. Since the buoyancy cylinder structure of the present application has the buoyancy stabilizing bulkhead device in the above-mentioned embodiments, it also has the advantages of the buoyancy stabilizing bulkhead device in the above-mentioned embodiments.

[0062] AsFigure 6 As shown, in one specific embodiment of the present application, the hollow cylinder 5 comprises a clamping groove structure 53 provided on the inner wall. The clamping groove structure 53 comprises an upper flange 531, a lower flange 532, and a clamping groove 533 provided between the upper flange 531 and the lower flange 532. The telescopic limiting structure 3 of the plankton stabilizing partition device is inserted into the clamping groove 533 to divide the inner side of the hollow cylinder 5 into the buoyancy chamber 51 and the water inlet chamber 52 arranged from top to bottom.

[0063] The above merely provides the preferred embodiments of the present application, but is not intended to limit the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement, and improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
