Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of marine machinery, and particularly to an automatic retracting device for a marine anchor winch. Background Art
[0002] During ship operations, the anchor winch is a key device to ensure the safe mooring of the ship. Many problems have emerged in the actual use of traditional marine anchor winches.
[0003] Early anchor winches mostly adopted manual or simple mechanical drive methods. When anchoring and weighing anchor, crew members had to consume a large amount of physical strength and time, and the operation efficiency was extremely low, making it difficult to meet the requirements of high-efficiency operations of modern ships. With the development of ship technology, electric anchor winches have gradually become popular, but these traditional electric anchor winches have obvious defects in the control accuracy during the process of paying out and retrieving the anchor chain. When the ship is in complex sea conditions, such as strong currents and high winds and waves, the speed of the anchor chain during pay-out and retrieval is likely to be unstable. The quickly paid-out anchor chain may cause the anchor gear to fail to reach the predetermined position accurately, and even impact the ship; when weighing anchor, if the chain retrieval speed is too fast, serious safety accidents such as anchor chain breakage may occur.
[0004] At the same time, the traditional anchor winch is relatively weak in buffer design. The ship sways constantly under the influence of wind and waves at sea, and the tension on the anchor chain changes at all times. Without an effective buffer mechanism, the transmission shaft is extremely vulnerable to damage due to excessive instantaneous torque, and frequent torque impacts will accelerate the wear of key components of the equipment, shorten the overall service life of the anchor winch, and increase the ship maintenance cost.
[0005] In addition, the traditional anchor winch also has deficiencies in anchor chain guiding. The anchor chain is prone to entanglement and jamming during pay-out and retrieval, which not only affects the operation efficiency, but also may cause uneven local stress on the anchor chain, reducing the strength and reliability of the anchor chain. Moreover, when the pay-out and retrieval of the anchor chain are completed, the locking method of the transmission shaft of the traditional anchor winch is relatively simple, making it difficult to withstand the swaying of the ship in harsh sea conditions, and the transmission shaft is prone to accidental rotation, loosening the anchor chain and endangering the mooring safety of the ship.
[0006] To solve the above problems of traditional marine anchor winches in pay-out and retrieval control, buffer protection, anchor chain guiding, and locking and fixing, it is extremely urgent to develop an automatic retracting device for a marine anchor winch with reasonable structure and reliable performance.

[0037] Among them, the first motor 5 is a reduction motor.
[0038] The usage state of the present invention is as follows: The present invention has a reasonable and simple structure, low production cost, and is easy to install. When anchoring, first start the first motor 5. The first motor 5 is a reduction motor, and its output shaft drives the transmission shaft 4 to rotate. Since the central interior of the anchor chain drum 3 is fixedly connected to the exterior of the transmission shaft 4, the anchor chain drum 3 rotates counterclockwise accordingly, and starts to release the anchor chain 8. The anchor chain 8 is released from the anchor chain drum 3, and successively passes through the retracting and releasing mechanism 7 and the retracting and releasing port 9 and falls outside the ship. The retracting and releasing mechanism 7 starts to work. The driving device 72 is started, and the third motor 723 operates. The driving gear 724 on its lower output shaft drives the driven gear 725 to rotate. The driven gear 725 is fixedly connected to the upper exterior of the worm 726, so that the worm 726 rotates. The worm 726 is connected to the worm wheel 722 and drives the worm wheel 722 to rotate. The central interior of the worm wheel 722 is fixedly connected to the central axis of the turntable 71, and further enables the two turntables 71 to rotate synchronously by a certain angle. The connecting shaft 73 at the upper and lower positions between the two turntables 71 drives the guide sprocket 74 to rotate by a certain angle. The guide sprocket 74 guides the anchor chain 8 to be smoothly and orderly released through the retracting and releasing port 9, avoiding entanglement or jamming of the anchor chain 8. Additionally, by changing the direction when the anchor chain 8 is released, the speed of the released anchor chain 8 can be slowed down. As the anchor chain 8 is continuously released, the ship is gradually fixed at the designated position. During this process, the buffer mechanism 6 plays a role. The movable block 611 rotates together with the transmission shaft 4, and the roller 612 on one side of the movable block 611 rolls on the inner wall of the ring body 610. When the release speed of the anchor chain 8 is too fast or the ship is impacted by external forces such as water flow and wind and waves, the transmission shaft 4 will generate a certain instantaneous torque change. At this time, several movable top blocks 67 are in the corresponding guide holes 65, and through the elastic action of the first spring 66, a radial buffer force is applied to the ring body 610, and then through the roller 612 and the movable block 611, a buffering torque effect is exerted on the transmission shaft 4. At the same time, the adjustable buffer mechanism 62 is also working. The second motor 626 (servo motor or stepping motor) is started, and its output shaft drives the screw 625 to rotate. The screw 625 is threadedly connected to the slider 624. The slider 624 moves under the lower side of the oil chamber 621, and pushes the piston 622 to move up and down in the oil chamber 621 through the second spring 623. The upper opening of the oil chamber 621 is connected to the opening on one side of the oil hole 63, and the oil hole 63 is further connected to the guide holes 65 around the circular cavity 69 through the small holes 64. The movement of the piston 622 changes the pressure of the oil in the oil chamber, thereby adjusting the magnitude of the buffer force at the movable top block 67 to adapt to different working conditions. When it is necessary to raise the anchor, start the first motor 5, and its output shaft drives the transmission shaft 4 to rotate. The anchor chain drum 3 rotates accordingly and starts to wind up the anchor chain 8. The retracting and releasing mechanism 7 works in the reverse direction. The third motor 723 rotates in the reverse direction. Through the transmission of the driving gear 724, the driven gear 725, the worm 726, and the worm wheel 722, the turntable 71 rotates in the reverse direction. The guide sprocket 74 introduces the anchor chain 8 outside the ship from the retracting and releasing port 9 and orderly winds it around the anchor chain drum 3. The buffer mechanism 6 continues to play a role to prevent sudden torque mutation of the transmission shaft 4 caused by factors such as sudden force or motor speed change during the process of raising the anchor.Its working principle is similar to that during anchoring. Through the cooperation of components such as the movable top block 67, the first spring 66, and the adjustable buffer mechanism 62, it plays a buffering and protective role for the transmission shaft 4. During the entire anchoring process, if the buffering force needs to be adjusted, it can be achieved by controlling the operation of the second motor 626. When the anchor chain 8 is retracted and released, it is necessary to lock and fix the transmission shaft 4 to prevent it from rotating accidentally due to reasons such as ship swaying. At this time, the locking mechanism 68 starts to work. The two oil cylinders 681 are started respectively, and their piston rods extend, pushing the connecting block 682 to move towards the center of the circular cavity 69. The limiting block 685 (in a T shape) in the sliding hole 683 inside the connecting block 682 slides in the sliding hole 683, and the locking block 686 at the other end of the limiting block 685 moves towards the center of the circular cavity 69 accordingly. When the locking block 686 contacts the ring body 610, under the elastic action of the elastic ring 684, the locking block 686 tightly clamps the ring body 610, thereby restricting the rotation of the movable block 611, and further locking and fixing the transmission shaft 4.
