Dock berthing device and installation method thereof

Abstract

The present application relates to a dock mooring device and an installation method thereof. The dock mooring device includes a mooring member, a support assembly and an elastic floating assembly. Each mooring member is arranged at intervals, and two adjacent mooring members are supported and connected by the support assembly. Since the support heads at both ends of each support member are respectively arranged on the elastic floating assembly of the relative mooring member, the elastic floating assembly provides the support head with an elastic force to float along the first direction. Since the first direction is a direction intersecting with the front of the mooring member, when the ship abuts against the mooring member from the front of the mooring member, the mooring member can deform and float along the first direction under the action of the elastic floating assembly and the support assembly, thereby reducing stress concentration and buffering the impact force of the ship berthing. The mooring members are connected together by the support assembly and mutually constrained in the lateral direction, which can maintain the stability of each mooring member, thereby improving the structural stability of the entire dock.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of dock construction, and in particular to a dock berthing device and an installation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] During the construction of the wharf, mooring components are often installed at the front of the wharf. When the ship is berthing, the mooring components play a key role in absorbing and dispersing the impact force, which can effectively protect the ship and the wharf structure, prevent the ship from scratching, wearing or damaging the concrete and steel structure of the wharf, and thus extend the service life of the wharf.

[0003] Traditional mooring components are mostly installed by splicing each other. This splicing method can enhance the overall stability of the dock structure. At the same time, it can form a larger force-bearing surface after splicing, effectively dispersing the impact force and mooring force generated when the ship berths, and ensuring the safety of the dock structure. However, it cannot be ignored that the spliced ​​mooring components have poor deformation resistance. When building a dock on a soft soil foundation, the dock structure is easily deformed by multiple factors such as the impact force of the berthing ship, earthquake force or foundation settlement during use. The spliced ​​mooring components cannot effectively adapt to the deformation, which will lead to internal stress concentration in the structure, and then cracks, breakage and other damage phenomena will occur, seriously affecting the service life of the mooring components and the normal use of the dock.

[0004] To solve the above problems, some docks adopt the design of not splicing adjacent berthing components and reserving intervals. This interval can provide a certain deformation space when the dock structure is subjected to external forces, reduce stress concentration, avoid structural damage, and also play a role in buffering the impact of ships berthing. However, this non-splicing method will lead to poor stability of the overall dock structure.

[0005] In summary, the existing berthing component settings are either spliced, resulting in poor deformation adaptability, which is prone to problems such as cracks due to stress concentration and affects the service life; or not spliced, resulting in poor overall structural stability of the dock.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the specific implementation methods of the present application are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without violating the connotation of the present application, so the present application is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0040] See also Figures 1 to 4 In one embodiment of the present application, the dock mooring device 10 is arranged on the cast-in-place pile 20 of the dock to facilitate the docking of ships. Specifically, the dock mooring device 10 includes a mooring member 100, a support assembly 200 and an elastic floating assembly 300. The number of the mooring members 100 is multiple, and each mooring member 100 is arranged at intervals. The support assembly 200 is arranged between two adjacent mooring members 100. The support assembly 200 includes a support member 210 and two support heads 220. The two support heads 220 are respectively arranged at opposite ends of the support member 210. Each mooring member 100 is provided with an elastic floating assembly 300 on one side facing another adjacent mooring member 100. The support head 220 is arranged on the elastic floating assembly 300. The elastic floating assembly 300 is used to provide the support head 220 with an elastic force to float in the first direction. The first direction is a direction intersecting with the front face 110 of the mooring member 100.

[0041] The mooring member 100 is installed on the cast-in-place pile 20, and each mooring member 100 is arranged at intervals. Two adjacent mooring members 100 are supported and connected by the support assembly 200. Since the support heads 220 at both ends of each support member 210 are respectively arranged on the elastic floating assembly 300 of the opposite mooring member 100, and the elastic floating assembly 300 provides the support head 220 with elastic force to float along the first direction. Since the first direction is a direction intersecting with the front face 110 of the mooring member 100, when the ship abuts against the mooring member 100 from the front face 110 of the mooring member 100, a force in a direction intersecting with the front face 110 of the mooring member 100 is applied to the mooring member 100, and the mooring member 100 can be deformed and floated along the first direction under the action of the elastic floating assembly 300 and the support assembly 200, thereby reducing stress concentration and buffering the impact force of the ship berthing. The dock mooring device 10, through the support assembly 200 and the elastic floating assembly 300, takes into account the ability of the docking components 100 to be deformable and float when not spliced, and the advantage of high overall structural stability when spliced.

[0042] In this embodiment, the first direction may be a direction perpendicular to the front face 110 of the mooring member 100. Of course, in other embodiments, the first direction may be a direction arranged at an acute angle to the front face 110 of the mooring member 100, so as to buffer the abutment pressure of the ship from the front face 110 or the direction inclined to the front face 110.

[0043] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the mooring member 100 includes a mooring body and a mounting portion disposed on the mooring body, and the mounting portion is used to be mounted on the cast-in-place pile 20 so that the mooring body is located at the front side of the entire dock. Specifically, the mounting portion is fixed to the cast-in-place pile 20 by anchor screws, and then the bearing surface of the dock is formed by tying steel bars and pouring concrete.

[0044] See also Figures 4 to 6In one embodiment, the elastic floating assembly 300 includes two hoop plates 310 and two floating elastic members 320. The two hoop plates 310 are arranged opposite to each other, and the support head 220 is arranged between the two hoop plates 310. The two floating elastic members 320 are respectively arranged at the two ends of the hoop plates 310 and located on the two opposite sides of the support member 210. Each floating elastic member 320 is used to provide elastic force for the two hoop plates 310 to approach each other, and the support head 220 can move in the first direction between the two hoop plates 310. The floating elastic member 320 acts on the hoop plates 310, so that the two opposite ends of the two hoop plates 310 are close to each other, and then the support head 220 is pressed between the two hoop plates 310. When the support member 210 or the support head 220 is subjected to a force in the first direction, the support head 220 moves between the two hoop plates 310, and then one end of the two hoop plates 310 is stretched apart. When the thrust disappears, under the action of the floating elastic member 320, the hoop plates 310 push the support head 220 to reset. By combining the hoop plate 310 with the floating elastic member 320, the support head 220 can be connected stably to ensure a certain elastic floating ability. During the movement of the support head 220, the two hoop plates 310 can be kept pressed against the support head 220 to maintain the stability of the movement of the support head 220. At the same time, the floating elastic member 320 enables the support head 220 to automatically adjust its position to a certain extent, compensate for installation errors, and reduce assembly and parts processing accuracy.

[0045] Specifically, the elastic floating assembly 300 also includes a mounting member 330, which is mounted on the mooring component 100. A floating cavity 331 and two elastic reset cavities 332 respectively located on opposite sides of the floating cavity 331 are formed in the mounting member 330. The direction of the elastic reset cavity 332 toward the floating cavity 331 is a first direction. Each elastic reset cavity 332 is connected to the floating cavity 331 through two connecting holes 333. The middle part of each hoop plate 310 is located in the floating cavity 331, and the opposite ends extend into the two elastic reset cavities 332 through the connecting holes 333 respectively. The two floating elastic members 320 are respectively arranged in the two elastic reset cavities 332, the support head 220 is located in the floating cavity 331, and there is a gap between the support head 220 and the side walls of the floating cavity 331 close to the two elastic reset cavities 332.

[0046] By setting the floating cavity 331 and the elastic reset cavity 332 separately, the range of motion of the support head 220 can be limited in the floating cavity 331, so as to avoid the support head 220 from having an excessive range of motion, which would affect the connection stability. The floating elastic member 320 is set in the elastic reset cavity 332, which can limit the elastic deformation space of the floating elastic member 320, so that the hoop plate 310 can be reset to the initial position more accurately, which helps to maintain the stable state of the berthing member 100 after each berthing and departure of the ship, ensures that it can continue to work normally, and reduces the structural damage or functional failure that may be caused by excessive position deviation of the support head 220 or ineffective reset.

[0047] In this embodiment, the floating elastic member 320 includes a floating spring, which is disposed in the elastic reset cavity 332 and between the two hoop plates 310, and is used to provide elastic force for the hoop plates 310 to move toward each other. In other embodiments, the floating elastic member 320 may also include an elastic compression member, which is disposed on one end of the hoop plate 310 facing away from the other hoop plate 310, and is used to provide elastic force for the hoop plate 310 to reset and move toward the other hoop plate 310. For example, the elastic compression member may be a spring sheet that can be compressed and deformed, or an elastic block or elastic ball that can be compressed and deformed, or may be a structure such as an elastic airbag.

[0048] In one embodiment, a sliding wheel 340 is provided at the end of the hoop plate 310, and a sliding groove 334 is provided on the inner wall of the elastic reset cavity 332. The sliding wheel 340 is rollably arranged in the sliding groove 334, and the sliding wheel 340 can move in the sliding groove 334 along a direction intersecting with the first direction. By providing the sliding wheel 340 and the sliding groove 334 to cooperate, the sliding friction between the hoop plate 310 and the inner wall of the elastic reset cavity 332 is reduced, and at the same time, a guiding effect can be provided for the movement and reset direction of the hoop plate 310, thereby improving the floating reliability of the support head 220. In other embodiments, the sliding wheel 340 and the sliding groove 334 can also be omitted.

[0049] See also Figure 3 and Figures 5 to 7In one embodiment, an installation cavity is provided on the outer wall of the mooring member 100, and the installation member 330 is installed in the installation cavity, and the outer side of the installation member 330 is open. The elastic floating assembly 300 also includes a cover plate 350 and an elastic sealant cover 360. The cover plate 350 is provided with a floating hole 352. The cover plate 350 is covered on the opening of the installation member 330 so that the support member 210 passes through the floating hole 352, and the support member 210 can drive the support head 220 to float along the first direction in the floating hole 352. One end of the elastic sealant cover 360 is sealed on the cover plate 350, and the other end is sealed and fixed on the support member 210 to cover the floating hole 352. The installation cavity is provided to facilitate the installation of the elastic floating assembly 300, so that the core components of the elastic floating assembly 300 are well protected. The cover plate 350 and the elastic sealant cover 360 are provided on the opening of the mounting member 330, which not only further protects the internal components from external physical damage, but also ensures that the support member 210 drives the support head 220 to have a certain elastic activity space. In other embodiments, the mounting member 330 can also be directly mounted on the outer wall of the mooring member 100. Or the mounting member can be directly cast in the mooring member 100.

[0050] In other embodiments, the elastic floating assembly 300 can achieve elastic contact with the support head 220 only through elastic members.

[0051] See also Figure 3 and Figure 7 In one embodiment, the support head 220 is a cylindrical structure. The cylindrical support head 220 can roll along its own axis, and the two hoop plates 310 are pressed against the circumferential surface of the support head 220 .

[0052] In another embodiment, the support member 210 is a telescopic rod that can be adjusted to accommodate different spacings of the mooring members 100. Specifically, the support member 210 can be a telescopic rod connected by two sections of threads, and the length of the support member 210 can be adjusted by screwing.

[0053] See also Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 8In one embodiment, the dock berthing device 10 further includes a buffer assembly 400, which includes a buffer plate 410 and a buffer unit 420. The buffer plate 410 is detachably arranged on the front face 110 of the docking member 100 through the buffer unit 420 and is arranged at a distance from the docking member 100. The buffer unit 420 is used to provide a buffer elastic force along the first direction for the buffer plate 410. When the ship is berthing, the buffer plate 410 first directly bears the impact force of the ship. The buffer plate 410 is arranged on the front face 110 of the docking member 100 and is spaced at a certain distance, thereby avoiding a direct collision between the ship and the docking member 100 and extending the service life of the docking member 100. Then the buffer unit 420 plays a role, providing a buffer elastic force along the first direction, further dispersing and absorbing the impact force. The elastic deformation of the buffer unit 420 converts the kinetic energy of the ship's impact into elastic potential energy for storage, thereby reducing the impact of the impact force on the docking member 100, improving the energy absorption efficiency, and improving the safety of the dock berthing device 10.

[0054] Specifically, the buffer unit 420 includes a buffer 421, a connector 422 and a locking member 423. The connector 422 is arranged on the front side 110 of the mooring member 100. The buffer 421 is arranged on the side of the buffer plate 410 facing the mooring member 100. The buffer 421 is engaged with the connector 422. The buffer 421 can provide a buffer elastic force along a first direction for the connector 422. The locking member 423 is detachably arranged on the buffer plate 410 to lock the buffer 421 and the connector 422. The connector 422 is pre-arranged on the front side 110 of the mooring member 100. When installing, it is only necessary to engage the buffer 421 with the connector 422, and then install the locking member 423 on the buffer plate 410, which shortens the installation time, improves the assembly efficiency of the dock mooring device 10, and facilitates rapid use. When the buffer plate 410 or the buffer component 421 is worn, aged or damaged after long-term use, the buffer plate 410 and the buffer component 421 can be disassembled by removing the locking member 423 for easy replacement and maintenance.

[0055] Further, the connecting member 422 includes a connecting sleeve 4221 and a fixing portion 4222 fixedly connected to the connecting sleeve 4221, the fixing portion 4222 is installed in the mooring member 100, the connecting sleeve 4221 is arranged toward the buffer plate 410, and a plurality of spaced clamping protrusions 4223 are arranged on the inner wall of the connecting sleeve 4221. The buffer 421 is a deformable elastic body, one end of the buffer 421 is arranged on the buffer plate 410, and a clamping groove 424 is provided on the outer wall of the other end, and the other end of the buffer 421 is inserted into the connecting sleeve 4221 so that the clamping protrusion 4223 is clamped in the clamping groove 424. Through the deformability of the buffer 421, the clamping protrusion 4223 is clamped in the clamping groove 424, so as to realize the connection between the buffer 421 and the connecting sleeve 4221. Since the buffer 421 is deformable, the depth of the clamping groove 424 can be deeper to improve the reliability of the connection.

[0056] Specifically, the angle between the outer wall of the clamping protrusion 4223 facing the fixing portion 4222 and the inner wall of the connecting sleeve 4221 is a right angle or close to a right angle, which further reduces the possibility of the clamping protrusion 4223 being detached from the clamping groove 424 .

[0057] In this embodiment, a fixing hole 120 is formed in the mooring member 100, and the fixing portion 4222 is installed in the fixing hole 120, so that at least part of the connecting sleeve 4221 extends out of the mooring member 100. Alternatively, the fixing portion 4222 can also be directly cast in the mooring member 100 when the mooring member 100 is prefabricated and cast.

[0058] In one embodiment, an elastic hole 425 is formed in the buffer member 421, and the elastic hole 425 penetrates to the side of the buffer plate 410 facing away from the mooring member 100, and one end of the locking member 423 can be inserted into the elastic hole 425 by the buffer plate 410, so that the locking member 423 and the buffer member 421 are interference-fitted. The buffer member 421 can absorb and disperse the impact force through its own elastic deformation. The provision of the elastic hole 425 increases the deformable space of the buffer 421. Therefore, during installation, the buffer 421 can be installed on the buffer plate 410 by taking advantage of the large deformation space of the buffer 421, and the connecting sleeve 4221 can be sleeved on the buffer 421 so that the snap-fitting protrusion 4223 is snap-fitted into the snap-fitting groove 424. Then, a locking member 423 is inserted into the elastic hole 425 to fill the elastic hole 425, thereby reducing the deformation ability of the buffer 421 and ensuring the reliability of the buffer plate 410 being connected to the connecting sleeve 4221 through the buffer 421. The structure of the buffer 421 itself plays a role in vibration absorption and elastic deformation.

[0059] In one embodiment, the locking member 423 may be a screw structure, and the locking member 423 may be threadedly inserted into the elastic hole 425. Alternatively, the locking member 423 may be a pin, and the locking member 423 and the wall of the elastic hole 425 are interference fit.

[0060] In one embodiment, the buffer member 421 includes a buffer pad 4211 and a buffer column 4212. The buffer pad 4211 is installed on the buffer plate 410. The clamping groove 424 is provided on the outer wall of the buffer column 4212. One end of the buffer column 4212 is arranged on the buffer pad 4211, and the other end is inserted into the connecting sleeve 4221. The end of the connecting sleeve 4221 facing away from the fixing portion 4222 abuts against the buffer pad 4211. The spacing between the buffer plate 410 and the mooring member 100 is smaller than the thickness of the buffer pad 4211, and smaller than the spacing between the end of the locking member 423 and the fixing portion 4222. The spacing between the buffer plate 410 and the mooring member 100 is smaller than the thickness of the buffer pad 4211, and smaller than the spacing between the end of the locking member 423 and the fixing portion 4222, so that the buffer pad 4211 and the buffer column 4212 can be prevented from being over-extruded when impacted, and the buffer member 421 can be prevented from being permanently deformed or damaged due to over-extrusion, thereby extending its service life. At the same time, by reasonably setting the size relationship of each component, a tight connection between the buffer component 421 and the connecting component 422 is ensured.

[0061] Specifically, a buffer groove 412 for setting the buffer pad 4211 is formed in the buffer plate 410, and a compression hole 414 connected to the buffer groove 412 is opened on the side of the buffer plate 410 facing the mooring component 100, and the end of the connecting sleeve 4221 away from the fixing portion 4222 can extend into the compression hole 414 and then abut against the buffer pad 4211. On the one hand, when the locking member 423 is not inserted into the elastic hole 425, since the deformation space of the buffer member 421 is large, the buffer pad 4211 can be set in the buffer groove 412 by the compression hole 414 through deformation, and can also be removed from the buffer groove 412 by the compression hole 414, so as to facilitate the installation and replacement of the buffer member 421; on the other hand, since the end of the connecting sleeve 4221 is inserted into the compression hole 414, and the connecting sleeve 4221 is a rigid structure, a tight connection structure is formed between the connecting sleeve 4221 and the buffer pad 4211 and the buffer plate 410 through the compression hole 414, thereby enhancing the cooperative working ability between the various components of the buffer unit 420.

[0062] In this embodiment, the buffer column 4212 is integrally formed on the buffer pad 4211 to ensure the overall structural stability of the buffer member 421 .

[0063] like Fig. 9As shown, in one embodiment, there are multiple buffer assemblies 400, and the multiple buffer assemblies 400 are arranged at intervals on the buffer plate 410. For example, in this embodiment, there are nine buffer assemblies 400. In other embodiments, the number and position of the buffer assemblies 400 can also be set according to the size of the buffer plate 410, the relationship between the mooring member 100 and the water level, etc.

[0064] See also Figures 1 to 4 In one embodiment, the present application also describes an installation method of a dock berthing device 10, and the installation method is applied to the dock berthing device 10 in any of the above embodiments. Specifically, the installation method includes:

[0065] The buffer assembly 400 is installed on the front side 110 of the mooring member 100, and the elastic floating assembly 300 is installed on the side of the mooring member 100;

[0066] The current berthing member 100 is placed and fixed on the cast-in-place pile 20;

[0067] A support head 220 of the support assembly 200 is installed on the elastic floating assembly 300 of the current mooring structure 100 .

[0068] The next section of the mooring member 100 is placed and fixed on the cast-in-place pile 20 , so that the other support head 220 of the support assembly 200 is installed on the elastic floating assembly 300 on the next section of the mooring member 100 .

[0069] The steps of installing the buffer assembly 400 on the front 110 of the mooring structure 100 and the elastic floating assembly 300 on the side of the mooring structure 100 can be performed in parallel or separately to improve the construction efficiency. By installing the two support heads 220 of the support assembly 200 on the elastic floating assembly 300 of the adjacent mooring structure 100, the close connection and coordinated work between the adjacent mooring structures 100 are achieved. The support assembly 200 can effectively transmit and disperse the impact force generated when the ship is berthing, and enhance the integrity and stability of the entire dock mooring device 10. The buffer assembly 400 directly absorbs the impact force of the ship docking from the front 110, and achieves the best buffering and supporting effect with the support assembly 200. Most of the components can be prefabricated in the factory, and the main assembly and fixing work is carried out on site, which reduces the time and workload of on-site operations, and the on-site installation operation is simple, effectively shortening the construction period.

[0070] See also Figure 8 and Fig. 9In one embodiment, when the buffer plate 410 needs to be replaced, the locking member 423 is removed from the front side 110 of the buffer plate 410, and then the buffer plate 410 is pulled outward with force or the buffer plate 410 is pried outward between the buffer plate 410 and the mooring member 100, and the deformation ability of the buffer member 421 is utilized to separate the buffer plate 410 from the mooring member 100.

[0071] The docking device 10 of the present application uses the elastic floating assembly 300 and the support assembly 200 to make the connection between the docking components 100 more flexible, and also makes each docking component 100 work together to a certain extent. When the ship is berthed or subjected to external force, the docking components 100 will not directly collide with each other like a rigid connection. The elastic floating assembly 300 and the support assembly 200 make the entire dock's docking system more uniform and reasonable, thereby improving the overall stability of the dock and extending the service life of the docking component 100. Even if a docking component 100 is partially damaged, the elastic floating assembly 300 and the support assembly 200 can also ensure that other docking components 100 continue to function to a certain extent, provide a certain structural redundancy for the dock, and increase the safety reserve of the dock. The buffer assembly 400 can avoid the situation where the docking component 100 has excessive local stress at the contact point or connection part with the ship, prevent these parts from prematurely experiencing fatigue damage, concrete peeling and other problems, protect the integrity of the docking component 100, and also reduce the wear and scratches of the ship on the docking component 100.

[0072] At the same time, in areas prone to settlement such as soft soil foundations, the dock may experience uneven settlement during use. The use of the elastic floating assembly 300 and the support assembly 200 can allow a certain relative displacement between the two mooring components 100 to adapt to the deformation caused by the foundation settlement, so that the mooring components 100 will not produce excessive stress concentration due to the foundation settlement, thereby ensuring the safety and stability of the structure.
