Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of piling vessels, specifically to a positioning and leveling device for a piling vessel. Background Technology
[0002] A piling vessel is a ship used for piling operations on water. It has a steel box-shaped hull and a piling frame at the end of the deck, allowing it to tilt forward and backward to accommodate the driving of inclined piles. Piling vessels are not self-propelled and are towed into position by pushboats (tugboats). They are widely used in bridge, dock, and water conservancy engineering construction. When performing fixed-point piling, the piling vessel needs to be positioned appropriately. However, adjusting the angle of existing piling vessels requires manual pulling, resulting in low efficiency and wasted time and labor. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a positioning and leveling device for a piling vessel. This device features a rotating tube that drives the vessel to rotate and adjust its angle. This allows for rapid angle adjustment while avoiding manual adjustment. It solves the problem that when a piling vessel needs to be positioned for fixed-point piling, the existing piling vessels require manual pulling to adjust their angle, resulting in low efficiency and wasted time and effort.
[0004] To achieve the aforementioned goal of adjusting the angle by rotating the hull using a rotating tube, thus avoiding manual adjustment while quickly adjusting the angle, this invention provides the following technical solution: A positioning and leveling device for a piling vessel, comprising a hull, a circular tube movably passing through the hull, a positioning pile a installed on the circular tube, two through slots on the hull, each through slot containing a positioning pile b, a rotating tube movably sleeved on the circular tube, the rotating tube being fixedly connected to the hull, three dividing plates fixedly sleeved on the rotating tube, two line-retrieving devices fixedly installed on the upper side of the hull, each line-retrieving device equipped with a pull rope, and two fixing posts fixedly installed on the upper side of the hull, each fixing post having a [missing information - likely a design feature or design feature]. There are annular grooves, and two pull ropes are wound around the rotating tube after passing through the two annular grooves respectively. The two pull ropes are separated by three dividing plates and wound around the upper and lower halves of the rotating tube. There are two installation slots on both the left and right sides of the hull. A hydraulic cylinder is fixedly installed in each installation slot. The hull can be simply fixed by moving the positioning pile a downward and inserting it into the riverbed. Then, the two line-reeling devices can be activated to reel in and release the line respectively. In this way, one of the two pull ropes can be used to pull, thereby rotating the hull to adjust the angle through the rotating tube. This allows for quick angle adjustment while avoiding manual adjustment.
[0005] Preferably, two hydraulic devices are fixedly installed on the hull, and each of the two hydraulic devices has a movable bar fixedly installed on its vertical groove shaft. Each of the two movable bars has two movable bars fixedly installed on its two movable bars, and two positioning piles b are respectively fixedly installed on the four movable bars.
[0006] Preferably, each of the four movable strips is fixedly installed with a connecting plate, and each of the four connecting plates is fixedly installed with a set of connecting strips on its upper side. Each set of connecting strips is fixedly installed with several crossbars, and each crossbar is movably fitted with a rotating column. Four fixing strips are fixedly installed on the upper side of the hull, and each of the four fixing strips is provided with a sliding groove. Each rotating column is respectively fitted with the inner wall of the four sliding grooves.
[0007] Preferably, a horizontal plate is installed at the lower end of the positioning pile a, and vertical bars are fixedly installed on the lower side of the horizontal plate. Inclined blocks are fixedly installed at the lower ends of both vertical bars.
[0008] Preferably, a connecting block is fixedly installed on the upper side of the horizontal plate, a groove is provided at the lower end of the pile body of the positioning pile a, the connecting block is movably connected to the groove, a screw rod is threaded through the pile body of the positioning pile a, the screw rod threaded through the connecting block, a rotating block is fixedly installed on the screw rod, and a hexagonal groove is provided on the rotating block.
[0009] Preferably, the inner wall of the rotating tube is provided with an annular groove, and a connecting ring is movably connected in the annular groove. The connecting ring is fixedly sleeved on the round tube. Several movable grooves are provided on the upper and lower sides of the connecting ring, and a rotating ball is movably connected in each movable groove. Each rotating ball is respectively in contact with the upper and lower inner walls of the annular groove.
[0010] Preferably, two blocks are fixedly installed on the upper side of the horizontal plate, and small rings are fixedly installed on each of the two blocks. Square grooves are opened on the two mounting brackets of the positioning pile a, and support bars are movably connected in the two square grooves. Small strips are fixedly installed on the upper side of the two support bars.
[0011] Preferably, each of the two small strips has a short rod that can be moved through it, and a round block is fixedly installed at the upper end of each of the two short rods. The upper side of each of the two mounting brackets of the positioning pile a has four round grooves, and the left side of each of the two support strips has a slot.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a positioning and leveling device for a piling vessel, which has the following advantages: 1. The positioning and leveling device for this piling vessel is connected to an external positioning column via a hydraulic cylinder. The angle is adjusted by the extension and retraction of the hydraulic cylinder to keep the vessel in a straight line or to keep it stable and not tilted. After the positioning column a is moved downward and inserted into the riverbed, the hull can be simply fixed. Then, the two line-reeling devices can be activated to reel in and release the line respectively. One of the two pull ropes can be used for pulling, which can drive the hull to rotate and adjust the angle through the rotating tube. This allows for quick angle adjustment while avoiding manual adjustment.
[0013] 2. The positioning and leveling device of this piling vessel can drive two moving bars to move back and forth through two hydraulic devices, which in turn can drive four movable bars to move back and forth, thereby driving two positioning piles b to move back and forth. After the piles of the two positioning piles b are inserted into the riverbed, the contraction and extension of the two hydraulic devices can be used to drive the hull to move back and forth horizontally, which can further facilitate the user to adjust the piling position.
[0014] 3. The positioning and leveling device of this piling vessel can improve the stability of the two positioning piles b moving back and forth by means of the sliding grooves of the four connecting plates with the rotating columns and the four fixed strips. At the same time, the rotating columns can reduce the friction, thereby further improving the practicality of the device.
[0015] 4. The positioning and leveling device of this piling vessel can move the horizontal plate downward when the positioning pile a moves downward, so that the two vertical bars can be inserted into the riverbed to increase the gripping force. This can prevent the fixed pile a from rotating when adjusting the hull angle using the line take-up device. At the same time, the screw, groove and connecting block can facilitate the user to disassemble and install the horizontal plate.
[0016] 5. The positioning and leveling device of this piling vessel can prevent the round pipe from separating from the rotating pipe through the annular wall groove and the connecting ring. At the same time, the friction can be reduced by the rotating ball in conjunction with the annular wall groove, thus improving the practicality of the device.
[0017] 6. The positioning and leveling device of this piling vessel can move the support bar back and forth by moving the small bar back and forth, so that the slot can move back and forth to connect and separate from the small ring. This allows the slot to connect with the small ring when the horizontal plate is disassembled, thus preventing the horizontal plate from losing support and falling immediately after disassembly, which would affect subsequent collection.

[0020] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein the same parts are indicated by the same reference numerals. It should be noted that the terms “front”, “rear”, “left”, “right”, “upper” and “lower”, “bottom surface” and “top surface” used in the following description refer to the directions in the drawings, and the terms “inner” and “outer” refer to the directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific part, respectively.
[0021] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0022] Please see Figures 1-8The present invention provides a technical solution: a positioning and leveling device for a piling vessel, comprising a hull 1, a circular tube 12 movably passing through the hull 1, a positioning pile a2 installed on the circular tube 12, two through slots 4 formed on the hull 1, each through slot 4 containing a positioning pile b3, a rotating tube 13 movably sleeved on the circular tube 12, the rotating tube 13 being fixedly connected to the hull 1, three dividing plates 14 fixedly sleeved on the rotating tube 13, two line take-up devices 11 fixedly installed on the upper side of the hull 1, each line take-up device 11 having a pull rope 10, two fixing posts 8 fixedly installed on the upper side of the hull 1, each fixing post 8 having an annular groove 9, the two pull ropes 10 respectively passing around the two annular grooves 9 and then winding around the rotating tube 13, the two pull ropes 10 being controlled by the three dividing plates The upper and lower halves of the rotating tube 13 are wound separately. Two mounting slots 43 are provided on both sides of the hull 1, and a hydraulic cylinder 44 is fixedly installed in each slot 43. The hydraulic cylinder 44 is connected to an external positioning post. The angle is adjusted by the extension and retraction of the hydraulic cylinder 44 to allow the boat to be parked in a straight line or kept stable and without tilting. The hull 1 is simply fixed by moving the positioning post a2 downwards into the riverbed. Then, the two line-reeling devices 11 are activated to reel in and release the line respectively. One of the two pull ropes 10 can be used for pulling, thereby rotating the hull 1 through the rotating tube 13 to adjust the angle. This allows for rapid angle adjustment while avoiding human error. For force adjustment, two hydraulic devices 7 are fixedly installed on the hull 1. Each of the two hydraulic devices 7 has a movable bar 39 fixedly installed on its vertical shaft. Each of the two movable bars 39 has two swivel bars 5 fixedly installed on it. Two positioning piles b3 are fixedly installed on the four swivel bars 5 respectively. The two positioning piles b3 are connected to the swivel bars 5 via existing bolts, nuts, and other fasteners. The two positioning piles b3 can be easily removed and replaced. The two hydraulic devices 7 can drive the two movable bars 39 to move back and forth, thus driving the four swivel bars 5 to move back and forth, which in turn drives the two positioning piles b3 to move back and forth. When the two positioning piles b3 are inserted into the riverbed, the contraction and extension of the two hydraulic devices 7 can be used to drive the hull 1 to move back and forth horizontally, further facilitating... The user adjusts the piling position. Connecting plates 20 are fixedly installed on each of the four movable bars 5. A set of connecting bars 19 is fixedly installed on the upper side of each of the four connecting plates 20. Several crossbars 24 are fixedly installed on each set of connecting bars 19. A rotating column 22 is movably sleeved on each crossbar 24. Four fixing bars 23 are fixedly installed on the upper side of the hull 1. Each fixing bar 23 has a groove 21. Each rotating column 22 is fitted against the inner wall of one of the four grooves 21. The rotating columns 22 installed on the four connecting plates 20, in conjunction with the grooves 21 of the four fixing bars 23, improve the stability of the two positioning piles b3 as they move back and forth. Simultaneously, the rotating columns 22 reduce friction, further enhancing the practicality of the device. A crossbar 28 is installed at the lower end of the positioning pile a2.A vertical bar 29 is fixedly installed on the lower side of the horizontal plate 28. An inclined block 30 is fixedly installed at the lower end of each of the two vertical bars 29. A connecting block 31 is fixedly installed on the upper side of the horizontal plate 28. A groove 26 is provided at the lower end of the positioning pile a2. The connecting block 31 is movably connected to the groove 26. A screw 40 is threaded through the pile body of the positioning pile a2. The screw 40 is threaded through the connecting block 31. A rotating block 42 is fixedly installed on the screw 40. A hexagonal groove 41 is provided on the rotating block 42. When the pile body of the positioning pile a2 moves downwards, it can drive the horizontal plate 28 to move downwards, thereby allowing the two... A vertical bar 29 is inserted into the riverbed to increase grip, thus preventing the fixed stake a2 from rotating when adjusting the angle of the hull 1 using the line reel device 11. Simultaneously, the screw 40, in conjunction with the groove 26 and connecting block 31, facilitates the user's disassembly and installation of the horizontal plate 28. An annular groove 16 is formed on the inner wall of the rotating tube 13, within which a connecting ring 18 is movably connected. The connecting ring 18 is fixedly sleeved on the circular tube 12. Several movable grooves 17 are formed on both the upper and lower sides of the connecting ring 18, each movable groove 17 containing a rotating ball 15. Each rotating ball 15... The upper and lower inner walls of the annular groove 16 are respectively fitted together. The annular groove 16 and the connecting ring 18 can prevent the round tube 12 from separating from the rotating tube 13. At the same time, the rotating ball 15 cooperates with the annular groove 16 to reduce friction, thus improving the practicality of the device. Two square blocks 27 are fixedly installed on the upper side of the horizontal plate 28. Small rings 38 are fixedly installed on each of the two square blocks 27. Square grooves 37 are opened on the two mounting brackets of the positioning pile a2. Support bars 25 are movably connected in the two square grooves 37. Small strips 36 are fixedly installed on the upper side of the two support bars 25. Both small strips 36 have short rods 34 that can be moved through them. A round block 35 is fixedly installed at the upper end of each short rod 34. Four round grooves 33 are opened on the upper side of the two mounting brackets of the positioning stake a2. A slot 32 is opened on the left side of each of the two support strips 25. By moving the small strips 36 back and forth, the support strips 25 can be moved back and forth, allowing the slots 32 to move back and forth to connect and separate from the small rings 38. This allows the slots 32 to connect with the small rings 38 when the horizontal plate 28 is disassembled, thus preventing the horizontal plate 28 from immediately losing support and falling, affecting subsequent collection.
[0023] In use, the first step is to connect the hydraulic cylinder 44 to the external positioning column. The angle can be adjusted by the extension and retraction of the hydraulic cylinder 44 to make the boat stop in a straight line or keep the boat stable and not tilted. After the positioning pile a2 is moved down and inserted into the riverbed, the hull 1 can be simply fixed. Then, the two line-reeling devices 11 can be started to reel in and release the line respectively. In this way, one of the two pull ropes 10 can be used to pull, and the hull 1 can be rotated and the angle adjusted by rotating the tube 13. This allows for quick angle adjustment and avoids manual adjustment.
[0024] Step 2: Two hydraulic devices 7 can drive two moving bars 39 to move back and forth, which in turn drives four movable bars 5 to move back and forth, thereby driving two positioning piles b3 to move back and forth. After the piles of the two positioning piles b3 are inserted into the riverbed, the contraction and extension of the two hydraulic devices 7 can be used to drive the hull 1 to move back and forth, which can further facilitate the user to adjust the pile driving position.
[0025] Step 3: The sliding grooves 21 of the four connecting plates 20 with the rotating columns 22 and the four fixing strips 23 can improve the stability of the two positioning piles b3 moving back and forth. At the same time, the rotating columns 22 can reduce friction, thereby further improving the practicality of the device.
[0026] Step 4: When the positioning stake a2 moves downward, it can drive the horizontal plate 28 to move downward, so that the two vertical bars 29 can be inserted into the riverbed to increase the grip. This way, when the angle of the hull 1 is adjusted by the line take-up device 11, the fixed stake a2 can be prevented from rotating. At the same time, the screw 40, in conjunction with the groove 26 and the connecting block 31, can facilitate the user to disassemble and install the horizontal plate 28.
[0027] Step 5: The annular groove 16 and the connecting ring 18 can prevent the round tube 12 from separating from the rotating tube 13. At the same time, the rotating ball 15 in conjunction with the annular groove 16 can reduce friction, thus improving the practicality of the device.
[0028] Step 6: By moving the small strip 36 back and forth, the support strip 25 can be moved back and forth, which allows the slot 32 to move back and forth to connect and separate from the small ring 38. This way, when the horizontal plate 28 is disassembled, the slot 32 can be connected to the small ring 38, thus preventing the horizontal plate 28 from losing support and falling immediately after disassembly, which would affect subsequent collection.
[0029] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
