Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of anchor chain tension testing technology, and specifically relates to an anchor chain section tension testing device and its testing method. Background Technology
[0002] As a key load-bearing component connecting the hull and the anchor, the anchor chain's core functions include: establishing the mechanical transmission path of the mooring system, buffering environmental load impacts, and maintaining the anchor's reliable grip on the bottom. A typical anchor chain system consists of anchor end links, transition links, and end links, employing a linked / stuck-less chain structure, with the former being widely used in large ships due to its higher structural strength.
[0003] The marine environment has a multi-dimensional impact on the mechanical properties of anchor chains: seawater accelerates material degradation through electrochemical reactions, buoyancy alters the actual stress distribution, and wave loads introduce dynamic fatigue factors. The coupling effect of these environmental factors leads to significant differences in the mechanical response of anchor chains in air and seawater media, specifically manifested in variations in key parameters such as yield strength reduction, fatigue life shortening, and stress concentration in the interface region.
[0004] In existing technologies, current testing devices lack environmental simulation capabilities and cannot quantify the threshold of the impact of medium differences on mechanical properties. Traditional testing schemes mainly suffer from three major technical bottlenecks: First, the testing scenarios are limited. Conventional land-based tests can only simulate static tensile loads and cannot reproduce the multi-physics coupling effects of the marine environment. Second, the medium effect is missing. Existing equipment has not established a dynamic corrosion-stress interaction model under seawater media, resulting in a systematic deviation between the test data and the actual service conditions. Third, the failure mechanism analysis is insufficient. Traditional testing can only obtain overall fracture strength indicators and cannot analyze the local failure characteristics of different service areas such as the air / seawater interface zone and the fully submerged zone, and cannot accurately locate weak points.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to invent a tension testing device and method for anchor chain segments to solve the above problems. It can realize comparative analysis of the mechanical properties of anchor chain materials under air reference state, seawater corrosion state and fusion load state, and accurately locate weak links.

[0019] A preferred method for detecting the tensile force of a fixed section of anchor chain is as follows:
[0020] Step 1: After pulling out the end of the anchor chain a certain distance, position it at one end of the lifting seat. The output end of the drive motor fixed at one end of the support frame drives the anchor chain winding frame to rotate, thereby controlling the length of the anchor chain. Position the other force-bearing end of the anchor chain at the top of the rotation control frame. The output end of the third motor fixed on one side of the fixed seat drives the adjusting screw to rotate, causing the moving seat at one end of the adjusting screw threaded to the outer wall to move the moving frame and the connecting frame. This allows the insert shaft connected to one side of the connecting frame to pass through the hole in the anchor chain. At the same time, the two ends of the insert shaft are squeezed against the support seat to assist in bearing the force, thus completing the preparation work for the anchor chain tension test.
[0021] Step 2: Fill the protective test chamber with seawater until the seawater level is flush with the support platform. Then, energize the electrode plates through an external power supply to initiate an electrolytic reaction.
[0022] Step 3: The output end of the first motor fixed at the top of the sliding frame drives the positioning screw to rotate, so that the lifting seat threaded on the outer wall of the positioning screw passes through the sliding groove and drives the fixed end of the anchor chain to rise and fall to the corresponding position, so that the anchor chain segment to be tested is about to be taut.
[0023] Step 4: The output end of the fourth motor fixed on one side of the detection and protection box drives the fixed shaft to rotate back and forth, which in turn drives the first helical gear to rotate. The teeth of the first helical gear mesh with the teeth of the second helical gear, which in turn drives one of the stirring wheels to rotate through the connecting shaft. The sprocket fixed at the bottom of the stirring wheel is connected to the chain for transmission, so that the two stirring wheels rotate synchronously, causing the seawater inside the detection and protection box to rotate. The teeth of the positioning gear fixed at the bottom of one of the stirring wheels mesh with the teeth of the positioning rack, causing the wave-making plate fixed at one end of the positioning rack to slide back and forth along the sliding strip at the bottom of the detection and protection box. The wave-making plate causes the seawater inside the detection and protection box to surge back and forth, so that half of the anchor chain is immersed in the seawater in this environment for a certain period of time.
[0024] Step 5: Simultaneously, the output end of the second motor fixed inside the fixed frame drives the fixed screw to rotate, causing the tension control frame threaded to the outer wall of the fixed screw to move, so that the tension control frame slides along the top of the tension control frame and drives the anchor chain to perform tension control, so that the anchor chain is in an environment of constantly changing tension for a certain period of time.
[0025] Step Six: Under the high pressure of the hydraulic cylinder fixed to the top of the testing protective box, the end of the anchor chain to be tested is pulled, causing the output end of the hydraulic cylinder to drive the tension control frame to move. The tension is kept stable by sliding between the limit strips fixed at both ends of the tension control frame and the limit grooves opened on both sides of the testing protective box, so that the anchor chain is pulled until it breaks. The stress value of the anchor chain is obtained, the location of the anchor chain break is observed, and the stress of the anchor chain under the air reference state, seawater corrosion state, and mixed load state is determined.
[0026] The technical effects and advantages of this invention are as follows:
[0027] 1. This invention, through the design of a tensile testing mechanism, allows the anchor chain to be tested under different conditions: air reference state, seawater corrosion state, and mixed load state. This not only obtains the overall fracture strength index of the anchor chain but also simulates different service conditions of the anchor chain under these conditions by controlling changes in anchor chain tension, wave load, and seawater corrosion. By comparing and analyzing the mechanical properties of the anchor chain under different states, this invention can accurately locate the weak points of the anchor chain, reveal its failure mechanism, and provide important reference for the maintenance and replacement of anchor chains.
[0028] 2. This invention simulates the corrosive effect of seawater on anchor chain materials by setting electrode plates in the detection protective box and conducting an electrolytic reaction. Combined with dynamic wave loads, a dynamic corrosion-stress interaction model under seawater is constructed. This design effectively makes up for the shortcomings of existing equipment in considering the medium effect, so that the detection data can more accurately reflect the changes in the mechanical properties of anchor chains in the seawater environment, and provides a scientific basis for the design and material selection of anchor chains.
[0029] 3. This invention innovatively introduces a biomimetic mechanism. Through the design of the stirring wheel and wave-making plate, it can simulate the dynamic wave and water flow effects of the marine environment during the testing process. This allows the anchor chain to be partially immersed in simulated seawater during testing, experiencing mechanical and chemical interactions similar to those in the real marine environment. This improvement solves the problem of the limited testing scenarios in the existing technology, making the test results closer to the actual service condition of the anchor chain.

[0050] The output end of the first motor 110 fixed at the top of the sliding frame 107 drives the positioning screw 108 to rotate, so that the lifting seat 112 threaded to the outer wall of the positioning screw 108 passes through the sliding groove 109 and drives the fixed end of the anchor chain 2 to rise and fall to the corresponding position, so that the anchor chain 2 section to be tested tends to be in a state of tension.

[0056] The output end of the second motor 305, which is fixed inside the fixing frame 304, drives the fixing screw 302 to rotate, causing the tension control frame 301, which is threaded to the outer wall of the fixing screw 302, to move. This causes the tension control frame 301 to slide along the top of the tension control frame 114, and drives the anchor chain 2 to be tensioned, so that the anchor chain 2 is in an environment where the tension changes continuously for a certain period of time.

With the protection of the protective ring 308, the length of the anchor chain 2 is controlled. The other force-bearing end of the anchor chain 2 is placed on the top of the rotation control frame 402 for positioning. The output end of the third motor 405 fixed to one side of the fixed seat 403 drives the adjusting screw 404 to rotate. This causes the moving seat 406, which is threaded to one end of the outer wall of the adjusting screw 404, to move the moving frame 407 and the connecting frame 408. This allows the insertion shaft 409 connected to one side of the connecting frame 408 to pass through the hole of the anchor chain 2. At the same time, the two ends of the insertion shaft 409 are squeezed against the support seat 410 to assist in bearing force, thus completing the preparation work for the tension test of the anchor chain 2.

The water rotates, and the tooth surface of the positioning gear 504 fixed to the bottom of one of the stirring wheels 501 meshes with the tooth surface of the positioning rack 505, causing the wave-making plate 506 fixed to one end of the positioning rack 505 to slide back and forth along the sliding strip 106 opened at the bottom of the detection protection box 101. The balance frame 507 fixed to one end of the wave-making plate 506 contacts one side of the positioning gear 504, causing the wave-making plate 506 to drive the seawater inside the detection protection box 101 to create waves back and forth, so that half of the length of the anchor chain 2 is immersed in the seawater in this environment for a certain period of time.

The output end of the drive motor 309 fixed at one end of the support frame 306 drives the anchor chain winding frame 307 to rotate, so that the length of the anchor chain 2 is controlled. The other force-bearing end of the anchor chain 2 is placed at the top of the rotation control frame 402 for positioning. The output end of the third motor 405 fixed on one side of the fixed seat 403 drives the adjusting screw 404 to rotate, so that the moving seat 406 threaded to one end of the outer wall of the adjusting screw 404 drives the moving frame 407 and the connecting frame 408 to move, so that the through shaft 409 connected to one side of the connecting frame 408 passes through the hole of the anchor chain 2. At the same time, the two ends of the through shaft 409 are squeezed with the support seat 410 to assist in the force, thereby completing the preparation work for the tension test of the anchor chain 2.
[0066] Step 2: Fill the test protection box 101 with seawater until the seawater level is the same as the height of the support platform 509. Then, energize the electrode plate 111 through an external power supply to carry out the electrolytic reaction.
[0067] Step 3: The output end of the first motor 110 fixed at the top of the sliding frame 107 drives the positioning screw 108 to rotate, so that the lifting seat 112 threaded to the outer wall of the positioning screw 108 passes through the sliding groove 109 and drives the fixed end of the anchor chain 2 to rise and fall to the corresponding position, so that the anchor chain 2 section to be tested tends to be in a state of tension.
[0068] Step 4: The output end of the fourth motor 513, fixed to one side of the detection and protection box 101, drives the fixed shaft 512 to reciprocate, causing the fixed shaft 512 to drive the first helical gear 510 to rotate. The teeth of the first helical gear 510 mesh with the teeth of the second helical gear 511, causing the second helical gear 511 to drive one of the stirring wheels 501 to rotate via the connecting shaft 508. The sprocket 502 fixed to the bottom of the stirring wheel 501 is connected to the chain 503 for transmission, causing both stirring wheels 501 to rotate simultaneously. The step rotates, causing the seawater inside the detection and protection box 101 to rotate. The tooth surface of the positioning gear 504 fixed at the bottom of one of the stirring wheels 501 meshes with the tooth surface of the positioning rack 505, causing the wave-making plate 506 fixed at one end of the positioning rack 505 to slide back and forth along the sliding strip 106 opened at the bottom of the detection and protection box 101. The wave-making plate 506 drives the seawater inside the detection and protection box 101 to create waves back and forth, so that half of the length of the anchor chain 2 is immersed in the seawater in this environment for a certain period of time.
[0069] Step 5: Simultaneously, the output end of the second motor 305 fixed inside the fixing frame 304 drives the fixing screw 302 to rotate, causing the tension control frame 301 threaded to the outer wall of the fixing screw 302 to move, causing the tension control frame 301 to slide along the top of the tension control frame 114, and driving the anchor chain 2 to perform tension control, so that the anchor chain 2 is in an environment of constantly changing tension for a certain period of time;
[0070] Step Six: Under the high pressure of the hydraulic cylinder 113 fixed at the top of the detection protective box 101, the end of the anchor chain 2 to be tested is pulled, so that the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 113 drives the tension control frame 114 to move. The limit strips 116 fixed at both ends of the tension control frame 114 slide with the limit grooves 104 opened on both sides of the detection protective box 101 to keep the tension stable, so that the anchor chain 2 is pulled until it breaks. The force value of the anchor chain 2 is obtained, the breakage position of the anchor chain 2 is observed, and the force condition of the anchor chain 2 under the air reference state, seawater corrosion state and fusion load state is determined.
[0071] like Figure 2 As shown, this is the state of anchor chain 2 under tension test in a fully air reference state.
