Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of shipbuilding technology, specifically to a method for controlling the precision of closure of the arc-shaped segmented wall panels of the LNG carrier's Type B fuel tank. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the misalignment of butt weld joints in marine Type B bulkheads must meet ISO 5817-B requirements, with a value of less than 3mm. When the corners of Type B fuel tanks use small-radius arc transitions (forming radius less than 1000mm), the misalignment of the arc-shaped bulkhead weld joints at the corners of the segmented closure ends is very likely to exceed the tolerance.

[0003] The B-type compartment structure is made of 9Ni steel, which is a low-temperature high-strength steel. Conventional hull forming processes have low forming precision and usually use large-radius forming to reduce the stiffness of the arc joint and facilitate assembly. However, in the actual construction process of 9Ni, conventional pyrotechnic straightening will cause the material to lose its low-temperature performance. It is strictly forbidden to use conventional pyrotechnic straightening to adjust the assembly precision of the weld joint. Misalignment and roundness of the weld joint at the joint may still occur. Usually, the arc plate parts are replaced locally according to the actual size of the arc plate. If necessary, the strength, fatigue and crack propagation of the compartment need to be recalculated.

[0004] Using small-radius corner arc-shaped wall panels for transition allows the arc panels to be separated from the flat wall panels and formed independently, reducing the size of the formed parts and increasing the overall volume of the B-type compartment, thus improving the space utilization rate of B-type compartments of the same size. However, the reduction in the radius of curvature increases the stiffness of the arc segment, reduces the amount of assembly straightening adjustment, and makes it extremely difficult to control the precision. The traditional network line segmented joining method is no longer suitable for the precision requirements of joining small-radius corner arc-shaped segmented wall panels in 9Ni box-type compartments.

[0005] The assembly of the B-type cabin sections with the aforementioned small-radius corner arc-shaped wall panels requires the use of professional methods and precision control methods. The arc-shaped panel precision control method, which combines network lines and arc-shaped wall panel assembly line positioning, can effectively position the arc-shaped panels at the closure end, avoid heat straightening, ensure assembly accuracy, improve closure welding quality, and reduce stress concentration and segment deformation of the B-type cabin structure caused by internal stress generated by mechanical straightening. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides a method for controlling the closure accuracy of the arc-shaped segmented wall panels of the LNG ship Type B fuel tank. The segmented closure accuracy control scheme using arc plate alignment can solve the technical difficulty of ensuring that the misalignment of the closure butt joint of the outer wall panel meets the level B weld quality of ISO 5817 standard without fire straightening, and minimize the construction risk of scrapping segmented parts due to unqualified closure accuracy.

[0036] Furthermore, the construction and precision control of the top layer, middle layer, and bottom layer assembly described in step S500 specifically includes the following steps:

[0037] S510. Drawing the closure plot line: The bottom reference segment is hoisted onto the closure jig. The bottom reference segment is leveled using a crane. A total station is used to measure and make the horizontal grid line of the bottom reference segment parallel to the reference horizontal line.

[0044] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: Precision control of segmented assembly is a key technical challenge in the construction of Type B cabins with small-radius, arc-shaped segmented wall panels. The segmented assembly precision control scheme using arc plate alignment solves the technical difficulty of ensuring that the misalignment of the butt joints of the outer wall panels meets the level B weld quality requirements of ISO 5817 without heat treatment, minimizing the construction risk of component scrapping due to substandard assembly precision. Compared to segmented assembly of approximately 20m in length, meeting the construction requirements for Type B cabin segmented assembly satisfies the standard requirements for arc plate straightness, wall panel flatness, and butt weld misalignment, significantly reducing the risk of workpiece or even segment scrapping due to misalignment of the arc plate.

Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can be practiced in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0069] like Figure 1-9 As shown, a method for controlling the closing accuracy of the 9Ni box-shaped arc-shaped segmented wall panels of the B-type fuel tank of an LNG carrier is described. The method includes the following steps:

[0070] S100, small radius arc plate 300 forming construction and precision control;

[0071] S200, Type B fuel tank bottom reference segmented layered assembly construction and precision control method; the bottom layer is composed of two bottom segments 130 symmetrically arranged with the center line of the fuel tank 100;

[0072] S300, Type B fuel tank body intermediate layer except for bottom segment 130 other segment assembly construction and precision control method; the intermediate layer is composed of two intermediate segments 120 symmetrically arranged with the center line of fuel tank body 100;

[0074] S500, top layer, middle layer and bottom layer segmented assembly construction method and precision control.

[0075] In one embodiment, the forming and precision control of the small-radius arc plate 300 (horizontal arc plate 360 ​​and vertical arc plate 370) in step S100 includes the following steps:

[0076] S110 and small radius arc plate 300 were measured after material feeding (see...). Figure 2 The overall dimensions of the feeding arc plate (length 340, width 350) are controlled within +1 to -2 mm, the difference between the feeding arc plate diagonals (330) is controlled within ≤2 mm, and the flatness of the plate is controlled within 3 mm / 2 m using a total station. Dimensions that do not meet the feeding accuracy requirements are ground until the accuracy requirements are met.

[0077] S120. After measuring the material for the arc plate, mark the lines (see...). Figure 2 Use a stainless steel signal pen or other tools to draw the arc center line 310 and the R stop line 320 (double-sided marking). The marking accuracy is controlled within ±2mm. Use tape to protect the markings at the end of the board.

[0078] S130. The arc plate blank is formed. During the forming process, the accuracy of the arc plate ends is controlled. After the forming process is completed, the accuracy of the formed arc surface is measured using template 800. The arc plate arc segment fit 810 is controlled within ±3mm, and the position deviation of the arc plate center line 310 and the R-stop line 320 is controlled within ±2mm. If the forming accuracy does not meet the accuracy requirements, it is corrected until the arc plate accuracy requirements are met (see...). Figure 3 );

[0079] S140, resulting in a horizontal arc plate 360 ​​and a vertical arc plate 370;

[0080] S150, Use conformal support brackets for transportation and storage.

[0081] In one embodiment, the bottom layer assembly construction and precision control in step S200 includes the following steps:

[0082] S210, drawing of the baseline of the bottom section;

[0083] S211. Use a total station to measure the level of the supporting piers for the flat tire. Adjust the height by adjusting the thickness of the stainless steel pads of each supporting pier so that the overall levelness of the tire tread is controlled within ±3mm.

[0084] S212. At the construction site of section 130 at the bottom, use a total station to set the ground line according to the ground line map of section 130 and the column spacing of the 900-meter-long flat frame (see...). Figure 6), determine the center line of the horizontal arc plate, the R-stop line of the horizontal arc plate 361, the theoretical closing line of the bottom section 133, and the vertical arc plate of the bottom section 132 (the figure is an example illustration, and in actual construction, a line drawing is required for each theoretical closing network line and assembly network line).

[0085] S220, Bottom section 130 reference arc plate mounting frame:

[0086] S221. Based on the location of all the ground lines of the horizontal arc plates in step S212 above (the arc center line ground line and the R-stop line ground line 361 of the horizontal arc plates), install the arc plate jig 1000, adjust the height of the jig, and ensure the verticality of the jig 910 and the gap between the outer plate jig 1100. Use a level to measure the levelness of the top of the arc plate jig 1000, and control it within ±3mm / 2m (see...). Figure 4 );

[0087] S222. Lay the bottom sealing plate 700 on the flat frame 900, complete the welding and install the T-shaped material and internal reinforcing structure;

[0088] S230, Installation of the Base Horizontal Plate of the Bottom Segment 130: Use a crane to install the horizontal arc plate 360. Use plumb bobs (3 in total) to hang on the top of the arc of the horizontal arc plate. The three plumb bobs are located at the two ends and the upper edge of the midpoint of the horizontal arc plate 360 ​​along its length. Use tools to adjust the horizontal position of the horizontal arc plate 360 ​​so that the difference between the arc end of the horizontal arc plate 360 ​​and the edge of the bottom sealing plate 700 is ≤2mm. The plumb bobs hanging on the arc end of the horizontal arc plate 360 ​​are perpendicularly aligned with the intersection of the R-stop line of the horizontal arc plate and the theoretical closing line 133 of the bottom segment on the ground. The deviation between the plumb bob top and the projection point on the ground meets the coordinate 2000. The plumb bob hanging on the upper edge of the midpoint of the horizontal arc plate 360 ​​is perpendicularly aligned with the R-stop line 361 of the horizontal arc plate on the ground. Add a mounting plate for fixation. Install and weld the horizontal arc plates 360 along the edge of the bottom sealing plate 700 in sequence as described above until the horizontal arc plates 360 are installed around the bottom sealing plate 700. Ensure that the gap between the arc end of the horizontal arc plate 360 ​​and the interface meets the gap requirements of the welding process. If it does not meet the requirements, use tools to adjust the horizontal position of the horizontal arc plate 360 ​​until the accuracy requirements are met. The installation of the horizontal arc plate 360 ​​is then complete.

After the bottom sealing plate 700 assembled in step S230 is assembled and welded with the bow sealing plate 500, stern sealing plate 600 and side sealing plate 200, the upright arc plate 370 is installed. The bow sealing plate 500, stern sealing plate 600, and side sealing plate 200 are assembled and welded together. After checking that the accuracy is correct, a crane is used to install the vertical arc plate 370. The placement of the vertical arc plate 370 is adjusted using tools so that the difference between the straight edge of the arc end of the vertical arc plate 370 and the edge of the upper closing plate of the bow sealing plate 500, stern sealing plate 600, and side sealing plate 200 is ≤2mm. A plumb bob is hung on the edge of the top arc plate of the vertical arc plate 370. The plumb bob is vertically aligned with the R-stop line perpendicular point 372 and the arc center line perpendicular point 371 of the vertical arc plate on the ground survey line. The deviation between the plumb bob tip and the projection point on the ground meets the coordinate requirement. A bracket is added for fixation. The vertical arc plate 370 is then welded to the bow sealing plate 500, stern sealing plate 600, and side sealing plate 200.

[0091] S242. Use a total station to measure the coherence of the upper closure joint 134 of the bottom section and the consistency of the length of the diagonal 131 of the bottom section.

[0096] S312. Based on the center line of the closure of the bottom segment 130, the arc center line of the vertical arc plate 370, and the R-stop line data of the vertical arc plate 370, use a total station to set up the ground plot line to determine the intermediate segment vertical arc plate ground plot line 122 and the intermediate segment theoretical closure ground plot line 123, with reference to the column spacing position of the construction flat frame.

[0097] S320, intermediate segment 120 reference vertical arc plate installation:

[0098] S321, the intermediate section 120 adopts vertical assembly. First, using the center line of the stern sealing plate 600 as a reference, the stern sealing plate 600 is lifted by a crane and vertically welded to the flat tire, with H-beam diagonal supports added; the bow sealing plate 500 and the side sealing plate 200 are successively lifted by a crane and welded to the flat tire, with H-beam diagonal supports added.

[0099] S322. Use a crane to install the vertical arc plate 370. Use tools to adjust the placement of the vertical arc plate 370 so that the difference in edge length between the upper and lower ends of the arc of the vertical arc plate 370 and the upper and lower closing lines of the bow sealing plate 500, stern sealing plate 600 and side sealing plate 200 is ≤2mm. Use a plumb bob to hang on the edge of the bottom plate of the arc of the vertical arc plate 370. The plumb bob should be perpendicular to the R-stop line plumb point 372 and the arc center line plumb point 371 of the vertical arc plate on the ground survey line. The deviation between the plumb bob top and the projection point on the ground should meet the same point coordinate. The bottom of the vertical arc plate 370 is spot welded to the sealing plate and H-beam diagonal supports are added.

[0100] S323. Use a plumb bob to hang on the top of the 370 arc of the vertical arc plate. The plumb bob is perpendicular to the center line of the arc plate on the ground line at point 371 and the R-stop line of the arc plate at point 372. The deviation between the plumb bob top and the projection point on the ground is consistent with the intersection coordinates.

[0101] S330. Use a total station to measure the coherence of the closure joint on the middle section 124 and the consistency of the length of the diagonal 121 of the middle section. If the accuracy requirements are not met, grind the closure joint on the middle section until the accuracy requirements are met.

After grinding, the center line of the lower closure of the top section, the arc center line of the vertical arc plate 370, and the R-stop line position data of the vertical arc plate 370 are measured again using a total station until the data are consistent.
