Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of ship grounding experiments, and in particular to a shoal shore-based experimental device and a shoal preparation method for ship grounding experiments. Background Art

[0002] Ships are prone to grounding accidents in ports and coasts. In this process, ships often run aground at a certain speed on the mud, sand, gravel or even rocks of the shallows, which may not only scratch the hull and cause local structural damage, leading to accidents such as oil spills, but also cause the hull to bend or even break as a whole, causing serious consequences. In the investigation and research and analysis of ship grounding accidents, real ship experiments or model experiments are usually carried out in some ports or shallow coasts. However, such experiments are subject to the shallow shore conditions of the experimental site, which not only consumes materials and labor, but is also extremely inconvenient for the transportation of large ship models. In addition, it is difficult to conveniently change the numerical working condition design of the parameters affecting the shallow shore, and it is impossible to conduct targeted and systematic experimental research.

A scraper plate is fixedly installed at the bottom of the soil sweeping frame in a detachable manner.

[0008] In the above scheme, a limit clamping plate is fixedly installed below the roller bottom plate to clamp the left and right sides of the box-type structure to limit the left and right deviation of the soil sweeping mechanism.

[0009] In the above solution, a handle is installed on the rear side of the soil sweeping frame.

[0010] In the above scheme, the storage mechanism includes a storage plate, and the left and right sides of the storage plate are respectively connected to the left and right side panels of the box-type structure through telescopic arms, and the angle of the storage mechanism relative to the box-type structure is controlled by the extension and retraction of the telescopic arms.

[0016] Step 2, control the lifting mechanism to lift the box-type structure, adjust the inclination of the box-type structure to the shallow slope required for the experiment, and then fix the length of the lifting mechanism;

[0017] Step 3: operate the soil sweeping structure to move on the box-shaped structure so that the scraper blade sweeps the surface of the shoal material and controls the surface contour of the shoal material to be flush with the bottom surface of the box-shaped structure;

[0038] like Figure 1-6As shown, a shoal shore foundation experimental device 100 proposed in an embodiment of the present invention includes a box-type structure 10, a base structure 20, a soil sweeping mechanism 30 and a storage mechanism 40.

The soil sweeping mechanism 30 is installed above the box-type structure 10 and can move along the front-rear direction of the box-type structure 10, and is used to control the flatness of the shoal material in the box-type structure 10. The storage mechanism 40 is rotatably installed in front of the box-type structure 10, and is used to recover the shoal material dropped therein after the ship grounding experiment into the box-type structure 10. The storage mechanism 40 is horizontally placed at the bottom of the pool during the ship grounding experiment to hold the dropped shoal material. When the shoal material needs to be recovered to the box-type structure 10, the rotation of the storage mechanism 40 can be controlled to pour the shoal material into the box-type structure 10.

[0039] For further optimization, the shoal material is one or more combinations of silt, sand, gravel, and rock, and the particle properties and particle size are selected according to the experimental conditions.

The rollers 304 and the guide rails 103 are adapted and installed so that the soil sweeping mechanism 30 is installed as a whole above the box-type structure 10, and the soil sweeping mechanism 30 travels on the guide rails 103 of the enclosure 101 of the box-type structure through the rollers 304. A replaceable scraper board 302 is fixedly installed below the soil sweeping frame 301 in a detachable manner, and the height and thickness of the scraper board 302 can be adjusted as needed to control the surface contour of the shallow beach materials of different materials to be flat.

[0042] For further optimization, a limit clamping plate 305 is fixedly installed below the roller bottom plate 303 to clamp the left and right sides of the enclosure 101 of the box-type structure 10 to limit the left and right deviation of the soil sweeping mechanism 30.

[0045] For further optimization, lifting ears 102 are installed on the left and right side panels 101 of the box-type structure 10. In some special cases, the inclination angle of the box-type structure 10 can be changed by lifting with a crane, thereby achieving control of the slope.

[0046] For further optimization, during the experiment, the base structure 20 is fixed to the bottom of one side of the experimental water pool by welding or bolt connection.

[0047] In one embodiment of the present invention, the lifting mechanism 21 also adopts a hydraulic telescopic structure, which can be operated and controlled by a control system.
