Detailed implementation manners

[0050] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and embodiments. It can be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention, rather than limiting the present invention. Additionally, it should be noted that for the sake of description, only parts related to the present invention are shown in the drawings rather than all the structures.

[0051] In the technical solution of the present invention, a material transportation passage device 3 for a car carrier is provided, which is arranged between the bilge turning circle of the ship and the material transportation system of the car carrier;

[0052] There are 3 openings at the butt joint transportation passage device at the bilge turning circle of the ship;

[0053] The transportation passage device 3 is a flat plate type passage, and different structural designs are adopted according to the requirements of the ballast materials to be transported.

[0054] Such as Figure 1 As shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, the transportation passage device 3 is in a "necking type", and the width at one end close to the material transportation system of the pure car carrier is greater than that at one end close to the connection with the bilge turning circle of the ship. Specifically, the width on the side close to the auxiliary platform 1 is large (3200 mm), and the width close to the cabin is small (2000 mm), showing a necking type. This kind of setting has the following effects: the large width on the side close to the auxiliary platform is lapped on the cabin entrance platform, increasing its bearing area, and docking with the auxiliary tray at the end, increasing the transportation width. The small width close to the cabin reduces the hull opening size while ensuring normal transportation contact, reducing the damage to the hull and the workload. In addition, this design can significantly reduce the weight of the transportation passage device and reduce material loss.

[0055] Such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, the transportation passage device 3 adopts standard steel sections. The transverse main beams adopt H-shaped steel, the longitudinal auxiliary beams adopt channel steel, and steel plates are laid on the top. Guardrails are provided on both sides of the transportation passage device 3 to play a safety protection role.

[0056] Such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, three support structures 301 are provided at the bottom of the connection between the transportation passage device 3 and the hull bilge for connecting with the hull deck.

[0057] Such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, 2 lifting lugs 302 are provided on each side at both ends of the transportation passage device 3, with a total of 8 lifting lugs 302 for the hoisting and installation of the transportation passage device 3.

[0061] Step 3: Since the distance between the ship's side and the dock wall is only 4000, which is the same as the length of the passage device, when hoisting from the dock platform to the dock, ensure that the length direction of the passage device is along the length direction of the dock.

[0062] Step 4: Hoist the transportation passage device 3 above the auxiliary platform and below the bilge turning circle, and pull the towing rope to make it rotate until the narrow end of the passage device approaches the hull, and control the hook to move towards the hull.

[0063] Step 5: Install a hoist at the corresponding position on the reverse top of DECK2 deck 15, connect one end of it to the two lifting lugs 301 in the fourth column from the left of the passage device, and slowly pull it into the cabin and move it to the predetermined position.

[0064] Step 6: Weld the support at the narrow end of the passage device 3 to the DECK1 deck 14 of the hull, and connect the contact between the wide end of the passage device and the auxiliary platform 1 with a cleat.

[0065] Step 7: Install a hoist at the position on the reverse top of DECK2 deck 15 close to the outer plate, connect the four lifting lugs in the second and third columns from the left of the passage device to play a role in safety reinforcement.

As Figures 7 to 8 shown, it is a structural schematic diagram and a top view of the access platform pallet 2. As Figure 9 shown, it is a top view after the access auxiliary platform 1, the transportation passage device 3, and the access platform auxiliary ramp 4 are connected. In this embodiment, the average load of the access platform pallet 2 is 5 tons. When hoisting, a steel wire rope longer than 10m is used as the lifting rope 9.
