[0003] Traditional laying ship sand suction and filling needs to be completed through manual operation of different equipment. The sand suction pump motor, cable, sand suction pump must be connected to the ship-end delivery pipeline and distribution box first, and then the sand suction pump must be hoisted into the barge cabin. The pre-construction preparation process is cumbersome, the labor cost is high, and the construction efficiency is low. During the startup, the operator cannot directly observe the actual operation of the pump, and the relative safety value is low. During the entire construction period, 6-7 workers are required to continuously operate the flushing nozzle to sweep the barge cabin, and at the same time adjust the position of the mud pump in real time to achieve the required suction concentration of the mud pump. The labor demand is large, which leads to increased labor costs, and the operator needs to have certain work experience.
