Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of ship design and manufacturing, and particularly relates to a heating device for a ship escape passage. Background Art

[0002] The ship escape passage (evacuation route) is a key path for crew members to safely and quickly evacuate to the life-saving equipment embarkation area or a safe location in case of an emergency. Its unobstructedness is crucial for ensuring the life safety of crew members. However, when the escape passage freezes, it will seriously affect the smooth evacuation of crew members and increase the risk of casualties in accidents. In polar seas or cold climate conditions, harsh climate conditions such as low air and seawater temperatures and high wind speeds can easily cause the ship's surface and escape passage to freeze. The frozen surface of the escape passage is slippery, and crew members are prone to slipping when walking, and may even be injured due to falling, thus reducing the passage capacity of the passage. The frozen passage will increase the difficulty of escape. Crew members need to spend more time and energy to stabilize their bodies and avoid slipping, which will seriously affect the escape speed. In case of an emergency, the icing phenomenon of the escape passage may exacerbate the panic of crew members, leading them to make wrong judgments or actions during the escape process, further increasing the risk. Summary of the Invention

[0003] An object of the present invention is to provide a heating device for a ship escape passage, which can effectively prevent the ship escape passage from icing in a cold environment and improve the use safety of the escape passage.

[0004] To achieve this purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0005] On the one hand, the present invention provides a heating device for a ship escape passage, including a heating component, a support component, and a support seat component. Among them, the support component includes a top plate and a side plate. The side plate and the top plate together form a support space on one side of the top plate. The support seat component includes a first connection part and a second connection part. The first connection part is fixedly connected to the side plate, and the second connection part is used for connecting to the ship's deck. The heating component is arranged in the support space.

[0006] On the other hand, the present invention provides another heating device for a ship escape passage, including a pedal heating component and a pedal support component. Among them, the pedal support component includes a first support part and a second support part. The second support part extends along one end of the first support part, and the top surface of the second support part protrudes from the plane where the top surface of the first support part is located. The pedal heating component is arranged on the bottom surface of the first support part.

[0007] On the other hand, the present invention provides another handrail inclined ladder with a heating device, including a tread support, a tread board, a handrail of the inclined ladder, a first heating element, and a second heating element. Among them, the first heating element is arranged at the bottom of the tread board, and the second heating element is arranged inside the handrail of the inclined ladder.

[0008] The beneficial effects brought by the present invention are as follows:

[0009] 1) The heating device for the ship's escape passage has a high degree of integration: The heating device is encapsulated into a module and installed on the deck in a block, ensuring the flexibility of the escape passage design. In addition, the encapsulation of the heating device into a block avoids the safety risks caused by the movement of the stepping surface during the emergency escape process and improves the use stability of the ship's escape passage.

[0010] 2) Facilitates maintenance and replacement: The heating device adopts a detachable installation method, which means that when the heating device is damaged due to long-term use or harsh environment, it can be repaired or replaced quickly and conveniently. This design reduces the maintenance cost and ensures that the escape passage can always maintain the heating state when needed to prevent icing.

[0011] 3) Improves the heating and anti-freezing effects: A hollow structure is designed between the heating component and the deck. This innovation significantly reduces the heat transfer from the heating component to the deck side. In this way, more heat is used to heat the surface of the escape passage, thereby improving the heating efficiency and anti-freezing effect. This not only helps prevent the escape passage from icing but also keeps the surface of the passage warm in cold weather, improving the comfort and safety of the crew during the escape process.

[0012] 4) Flexibility and adaptability: The solution of the present invention has a certain degree of flexibility and adaptability. Since the heating component is detachable, the number and position of the heating components can be adjusted according to actual needs to better adapt to the layouts of different ships and escape passages. This flexibility enables the present invention to be widely applied to various types of ships to meet the heating and anti-freezing requirements under different conditions.

[0021] As Figure 1 shown, Figure 1The figure shows a top view of a heating device for a ship's escape passage according to an embodiment of the present invention. The illustrated heating device 1 for a ship's escape passage includes a heating assembly 100, a support assembly 200, and a support base assembly 300. Among them, the support assembly 200 is the main part of the heating device, that is, it serves as the floor of the escape passage, supporting people or objects to move on it, and also plays a heating role, and itself is the heating device. The heating assembly 100 is arranged inside the support assembly 200 and is the main heating component of the heating device. By heating the support assembly, the escape passage is heated. The support assembly 200 is connected to the deck 2 of the ship through the support base assembly 300. The support base assembly 300 plays a connecting role, laying the entire heating device on the designed ship's escape passage and detachably connecting it to the deck. When the heating assembly is damaged or the escape passage is changed, it is convenient for maintenance and replacement.

[0022] Specifically, as Figure 2 shown, Figure 2 The figure shows a cross-sectional view of a heating device for a ship's escape passage according to an embodiment of the present invention. For a clearer display, Figure 2 the shown cross-sectional view only shows a part of the heating device, and the other part that is mirror-symmetrical to it has been omitted. As shown in the figure, the support assembly 200 includes a top plate 210 and side plates 220. The side plates 220 are on one side of the top plate 210, for example, the lower side as shown in the figure. For example, the top plate 210 is a square steel plate, and the side plates 220 are fixedly welded around the lower side of the square steel plate to jointly form a semi-enclosed support space 230. The top of this space is the top plate, the surrounding is the side plates, and the bottom is open. The shown cross-sectional view is an inverted U shape.

[0023] As the main part of the heating device, the support assembly has a certain rigidity and supporting ability. Just like a floor laid on the deck, it can support people walking or cargo transportation without other supports. Among them, both the top plate and the side plates can be steel plates, and the two are welded to form the support assembly.

[0024] Specifically, the heating assembly 100 is arranged in the support space 230 inside the top plate 210. Arranging the heating assembly 100 in the support space 230 can utilize the physical protection of the top plate 210 and the side plates 220 to prevent the heating assembly 100 from being exposed to the outside and being damaged or affecting passage. In a preferred embodiment, the heating assembly 100 is arranged closely against the inner surface of the top plate 210, and the heating assembly 100 is fixed to the inner surface of the top plate 210 through fixed buckles or fixing parts. By arranging it closely against the top plate, it is convenient for the heating assembly to dissipate heat to the outer surface of the top plate, which is more conducive to heat conduction to the outer surface of the top plate to achieve the effect of deicing and ablation.

[0025] In a further embodiment, a thermal insulation layer 240 is included in the support space 230, and the thermal insulation layer 240 is laid below the heating component 100. Specifically, in the support space 230, from top to bottom, there are successively included a top plate 210, a heating layer formed by the heating component 100, and the thermal insulation layer 240. The laying manner of the thermal insulation layer 240 can be determined according to the laying range of the heating component 100, ensuring that the thermal insulation layer 240 can shield and cover the heating component 100 in the lower space, minimizing heat loss from below, saving energy, and improving the thermal efficiency of the device. Among them, the thermal insulation layer 100 can be rock wool or a thermal insulation board.

[0026] In a further embodiment, a sealing plate 250 is included in the support space 230, and the sealing plate 250 is laid below the thermal insulation layer 240. Specifically, in the support space 230, from top to bottom, there are successively included a top plate 210, a heating layer formed by the heating component 100, the thermal insulation layer 240, and the sealing plate 250. The functions of the sealing plate 250 include supporting the thermal insulation layer 240. Another function is to seal the heating component 100 and the thermal insulation layer 240 in a closed space, playing a role of physical isolation below and also a protective role. In addition, it can reduce heat loss from below, save energy, and improve the thermal efficiency of the device. Among them, the sealing plate 250 can specifically be a stainless steel plate.

[0027] Further, the overall thickness of the heating component 100, the thermal insulation layer 240, and the sealing plate 250 is less than the space height of the support space 230, that is, there is still space below the sealing plate 250, making the distance from the sealing plate 250 to the deck greater than 0.

[0028] In the above embodiment, the heating device further includes a connecting piece 260. One end of the connecting piece 260 is connected to the top plate 210 and extends into the support space 230 along the top plate 210, and the other end is connected to the sealing plate 250. Specifically, the upper end of the connecting piece is fixed to the top plate by riveting or welding, the lower end is threaded, extends downward through the thermal insulation layer and the sealing plate to the outside of the sealing plate, and the thermal insulation layer and the sealing plate are connected to the top plate through the threaded connection manner of the nut and the thread. In another embodiment, the heating component, the thermal insulation layer, and the sealing plate are all connected to the top plate by the connecting piece. In the present invention, it is designed as a threaded connection, that is, a detachable connection manner, which is convenient for the maintenance and replacement of the heating component and the thermal insulation layer. Among them, the connecting pieces 260 are all arranged on the top plate, playing a role of support and connection.

[0029] In a further embodiment, the heating device further includes a support member 270. One end of the support member 270 is fixed to the top plate 210, and the other end extends downward to the bottom of the support space 230, that is, the top end of the support member 270 contacts the top plate, and the bottom end contacts the deck. The remaining part at the bottom of the support space 230 in the heating device is supported by the support member 270 to prevent the heating device from being damaged when subjected to external trampling or force application.

[0030] As Figure 1-2 shown, the support assembly 300 includes a first connection portion 310 and a second connection portion 320. The first connection portion 310 is fixedly connected to the side plate 220, and the second connection portion 320 is used to connect to the ship's deck. Specifically, the support assembly 300 is an L-shaped steel plate, including a vertical plate and a horizontal plate. The vertical plate and the horizontal plate are perpendicular to each other. When used as a support assembly, the vertical plate is fixed closely against the side plate of the support assembly, for example, by welding or riveting. The horizontal plate is fixed to the pedestal on the deck. In order to install the heating device, a pedestal is provided at the corresponding position on the deck, and the horizontal plate is fixed closely against the pedestal on the deck.

[0031] Among them, as Figure 1 shown, mounting holes are provided on the horizontal plate. The heating device can be connected to the deck by bolts passing through the mounting holes and the deck pedestal.

[0032] The present invention provides another heating device for a ship's escape passage. As Figure 3 shown, Figure 3 It represents a cross-sectional view of another heating device for a ship's escape passage according to an embodiment of the present invention. The heating device 1 includes a pedal heating assembly 500 and a pedal support assembly 600. Among them, the pedal support assembly includes a first support portion 610 and a second support portion 620. The second support portion 620 extends along one end of the first support portion 610, and the top surface of the second support portion 620 protrudes from the plane where the top surface of the first support portion 610 is located. The pedal heating assembly 500 is disposed on the bottom surface of the first support portion 610.

[0033] In this embodiment, the support assembly serves as a walking pedal. For example, it can be a pedal of a handrail inclined ladder on a ship. The heating assembly and the pedal are combined to form a heating device. The pedal integrates the heating assembly as a whole, saving space. Traditional heating methods may require additional installation space, which not only occupies valuable space but may also affect the passenger's activity range. However, the pedal integrating the heating assembly directly integrates the heating function with the pedal without requiring additional space.

[0034] The pedal heating assembly 500 is disposed below the first support portion 610 to prevent the pedal heating assembly 500 from being exposed to the outside and being damaged or affecting passage. In a preferred embodiment, the pedal heating assembly 500 is disposed closely against the lower surface of the first support portion 610, and the pedal heating assembly 500 is fixed to the lower surface of the first support portion 610 by fixing buckles or fixing members. By the method of being disposed closely against the top plate, it is convenient for the heating assembly to dissipate heat to the outer surface of the top plate, which is more conducive to heat conduction to the outer surface of the top plate to achieve the effect of deicing and ablation.

[0035] In a further embodiment, a pedal thermal insulation layer 700 is included below the pedal heating assembly 500, and the pedal thermal insulation layer 700 is laid below the pedal heating assembly 500. Specifically, below the first support portion 610, the pedal heating assembly 500 and the pedal thermal insulation layer 700 are included in sequence from top to bottom. The laying method of the pedal thermal insulation layer 700 can be determined according to the laying range of the pedal heating assembly 500, ensuring that the pedal thermal insulation layer 700 can shield and cover the pedal heating assembly 500 in the lower space, minimizing heat dissipation from the lower part, saving energy, and improving the thermal efficiency of the device. Among them, the pedal thermal insulation layer 500 can be rock wool or a thermal insulation board.

[0036] In the above embodiment, the heating device further includes a pedal connecting member 630. One end of the pedal connecting member 630 is connected to the first support portion 610 and extends downward along the first support portion 610, and the other end is connected to the pedal thermal insulation layer 700. Specifically, the upper end of the connecting member is fixed to the first support portion by riveting or welding, and threads are cut at the lower end. It passes downward through the pedal thermal insulation layer, and by means of a threaded connection between the nut and the thread, the pedal thermal insulation layer and the pedal heating assembly are connected to the first support portion. In the present invention, it is designed as a threaded connection, that is, a detachable connection method, which is convenient for the maintenance and replacement of the heating assembly and the thermal insulation layer.

[0037] Further, a further embodiment of the present invention is a handrail inclined ladder with a heating device, as Figure 4 shown Figure 4 is a schematic structural diagram of a handrail inclined ladder with a heating device according to an embodiment of the present invention. The handrail inclined ladder 3 includes a tread support 800, a tread board 810, a handrail 820, a first heating element 830, and a second heating element 840, wherein the first heating element 830 is disposed at the bottom of the tread board 810, and the second heating element 840 is disposed inside the handrail of the inclined ladder.

[0038] Specifically, the first heating element 830 is an electric heating tape or other heating device. The tread board 810 can be set in various forms, which will not be elaborated here, and can also be set in the form of the pedal heating device described in the previous embodiment. For example, it includes a pedal heating assembly 500 and a pedal support assembly 600, wherein the pedal support assembly includes a first support portion 610 and a second support portion 620. The second support portion 620 extends along one end of the first support portion 610, and the top surface of the second support portion 620 protrudes from the plane where the top surface of the first support portion 610 is located. The pedal heating assembly 500 is disposed on the bottom surface of the first support portion 610.

[0039] Further, the handrail inclined ladder of this embodiment includes a first heating element 830 and a second heating element 840. The first heating element 830 is disposed at the bottom of the tread board 810, and the second heating element 840 is disposed inside the handrail of the inclined ladder.

[0040] In a further embodiment, the first heating element disposed at the bottom of the tread plate can be connected to the power supply in series through a wire or in parallel through a wire.

[0041] In a further embodiment, the first heating element disposed at the bottom of the tread plate and the second heating element disposed inside the handrail of the inclined ladder can be connected to the power supply in series through a wire.
