[0034] like Figure 9-31 As shown, a method for transporting a multi-layered transport fixture for an offshore photovoltaic platform includes the following steps: S1, Arrangement and installation of tooling fixing base assembly 1; S11, lay out and measure the installation positions of the four sets of tooling fixing base assemblies 1 on the deck of the transport ship, so that the four sets of tooling fixing base assemblies 1 are arranged in a square. Before construction, surveyors and technicians used a total station, ink line, and red marker paint to lay out the center line, positioning frame line, and welding control line of the base, based on the dimensions of the photovoltaic platform and the deck layout of the transport ship. The error of the laying out was strictly controlled within ±2mm to ensure that the positioning marks were clear, continuous, and without any breaks.
[0035] S12, one end of the base frame 101 is connected to the deck of the transport ship through the deck web assembly 102, and the other end extends to the outside of the transport ship deck and is connected to the side wall of the transport ship through the outboard support assembly 103; and a connecting grid platform is arranged at the inner end of the upper surface of the base frame 101 to install the base assembly 104, and a connecting truss platform is arranged at the outer end of the upper surface of the base frame 101 to install the base assembly 105.
[0036] Including deck pretreatment, the workers first thoroughly cleaned the deck installation area of oil, rust, mud and debris. Within 50mm of the welding area, an angle grinder and rust remover were used to grind until a uniform metallic luster was achieved, with a rust removal grade of Sa2.5. After grinding, the contact surface was wiped with acetone to ensure that the area was dry, clean and free of oil residue.
[0037] Before installation, the base frame 101 was lifted and placed smoothly into the designed position by the crane operator and the dock crane. According to the parameters of the ship's beam arch and ridge arc, the operators selected steel shims of different thicknesses of 1mm, 2mm and 5mm to finely adjust the height of the base frame 101 to ensure that the top surface of the base meets the horizontal installation requirements.
[0038] Then, use a leveling calibration. Use a laser level to fully check the levelness of the top surface of the base frame 101 to ensure that the levelness deviation is ≤3mm / m and the height difference between adjacent support surfaces does not exceed 2mm. If the deviation exceeds the standard, add or remove shims in time to readjust until the accuracy requirements are met.
[0039] Finally, the base frame 101 is welded to the hull deck via the deck web assembly 102 by a certified marine welder using a symmetrical segmented skip welding method. The weld leg size meets the design requirements, and the welding process strictly controls deformation to prevent defects such as undercut, porosity, slag inclusion, and incomplete penetration.
[0040] Post-weld inspection: After welding is completed, the welding slag is removed in time and the weld is ground. 100% magnetic particle testing is carried out on key load-bearing welds such as the external support assembly 103 and the base frame 101. The test results meet the requirements of GB / T 26952-2011 standard. Any unqualified parts are immediately removed and re-welded. Only after passing the re-inspection can the next process be carried out.
[0041] S2, hoisting and stacking installation of the photovoltaic platform; Installation of grid-supported photovoltaic platform by hoisting and stacking: Before hoisting, the safety officer and the crane commander shall demarcate a warning area no less than three times the slewing radius of the boom, set up warning signs to prohibit unauthorized personnel from entering, and use an anemometer to monitor the on-site wind speed in real time. The operating wind speed shall be controlled at ≤12m / s. If the wind speed exceeds the standard, the operation shall be stopped immediately.
[0042] The sling inspection and installation: The slinger conducts a comprehensive inspection of the wire rope, shackles, slings, and lifting beams to ensure that the wire rope is free of broken wires, rust, and flattening. The slings are installed symmetrically according to the design lifting points, and the shackle threads are intact and properly locked.
[0043] During the trial lift, the crane operator lifts the grid photovoltaic platform 100-200mm off the ground according to the command instructions, brakes and pauses for 5 minutes to complete the trial lift. The key checks are the uniformity of the force on the lifting points, the absence of deformation of the platform structure, and the absence of abnormal operation of the crane. After confirming that all indicators are qualified, the formal lifting operation will be carried out.
[0044] S21, install the bottom support column 201 onto the space frame platform mounting base group 104, and then install a set of tooling platform assembly 3 on the bottom support column 201; S22, the crane lifts the first-layer grid photovoltaic platform, places the landing point of the first-layer grid photovoltaic platform into the support tube 302, and locks it with the locking component 303; After the first layer of the photovoltaic grid platform is installed and reinforced, technicians, quality inspectors and safety officers will conduct a joint inspection to confirm that the platform is not tilted or loose, the fixing frame is not deformed, and the pins and accessories are complete and locked. Only after the inspection is passed and signed off can the installation of the second layer of fixing frame be carried out.
[0045] S23, install the second layer support column 202 to the upper end of the bottom layer support column 201, and install a set of tooling support platform components 3 on the second layer support column 202; S24, the crane lifts the second-layer grid photovoltaic platform, places the landing point of the second-layer grid photovoltaic platform into the support tube 302, and locks it with the locking component 303; The second-layer grid photovoltaic platform strictly followed the first-layer hoisting process to complete the trial hoisting, translation, and low-speed placement operations. During the placement process, a safe distance of no less than 100mm was maintained between the second-layer platform and the fixed frame to avoid collision damage to the structure.
[0046] S25, install the third layer support column 204 to the upper end of the second layer support column 202, and install a set of tooling support platform assembly 3 on the third layer support column 204; S26, the crane lifts the third-layer grid photovoltaic platform, places the landing point of the third-layer grid photovoltaic platform into the support tube 302, and locks it with the locking component 303; After the third-layer grid photovoltaic platform passes the acceptance test, the alignment, insertion and pin locking of the third-layer plug-in fixed frame are completed with reference to the installation process of the second-layer grid photovoltaic platform. During the installation process, the coaxiality and overall verticality of the three-layer columns are checked, and the center deviation of the column is controlled to be ≤5mm and the cumulative verticality deviation is ≤15mm to ensure that the upper load is evenly distributed without eccentric load. S27, install the top support column 206 to the upper end of the third support column 204, and install a set of tooling support platform components 3 on the top support column 206; S28, the crane lifts the fourth-layer grid photovoltaic platform, places the landing point of the fourth-layer grid photovoltaic platform into the support pipe 302, and locks it with the locking component 303.
[0047] The fourth-layer grid photovoltaic platform adopts a low-speed, small-amplitude hoisting method. After the crane accurately connects to the plug-in point, it is slowly lowered into place. After the platform is in place, it is left to stand still for 5 minutes to confirm that there is no abnormal deformation or abnormal noise in the overall stacked structure before subsequent reinforcement work is carried out.
[0048] The entire structure was reinforced, with reinforcement personnel carrying out comprehensive reinforcement around the fourth-layer grid photovoltaic platform and adding diagonal windproof ropes at the top. This ensured that the four-layer stacked structure formed an integral rigid system, meeting the stability requirements for long-distance maritime transportation.
[0049] After all the grid photovoltaic platforms were assembled, the quality inspectors and installers conducted a full inspection from bottom to top, focusing on checking that all welds were free from cracks and deformation, that the pins and cotter pins were fully locked, that the reinforcing ropes were not loose, and that the anti-slip and limiting devices were effective. At the same time, they confirmed that there was no tilting, displacement, or local deformation of each platform.
[0050] For overall acceptance, the overall structural acceptance must ensure that the total verticality deviation of the stacked assembly is ≤20mm, there is no obvious shaking when the top platform is gently pushed manually, there is no relative displacement between layers, and the joints of each platform fit tightly without any gaps, meeting the safety requirements for maritime transportation.
[0051] Defect rectification: Looseness, welding defects and other problems found during the inspection process shall be rectified immediately. After the rectification is completed, a second re-inspection shall be carried out. Only after all the defects are qualified can the shipment preparation stage begin.
[0052] S2 includes: Truss photovoltaic platform hoisting and stacking installation: Before hoisting, the safety officer and the crane operator shall demarcate a warning area no less than three times the slewing radius of the boom, set up warning signs to prohibit unauthorized personnel from entering, and use an anemometer to monitor the wind speed on site in real time. The operating wind speed shall be controlled at ≤12m / s. If the wind speed exceeds the standard, the operation shall be stopped immediately.
[0053] The sling inspection and installation: The slinger conducts a comprehensive inspection of the wire rope, shackles, slings, and lifting beams to ensure that the wire rope is free of broken wires, rust, and flattening. The slings are installed symmetrically according to the design lifting points, and the shackle threads are intact and properly locked.
[0054] Trial lifting: The crane operator lifts the truss photovoltaic platform 100-200mm off the ground according to the command instructions, brakes and pauses for 5 minutes to complete the trial lifting. The key checks are the uniformity of the force on the lifting points, the absence of deformation of the platform structure, and the absence of abnormal operation of the crane. After confirming that all indicators are qualified, the formal lifting operation is carried out.
[0055] S21, install the bottom support column 201 onto the truss platform mounting base assembly 105, and then install a set of tooling platform assembly 3 on the bottom support column 201; S22, the crane lifts the first-layer truss photovoltaic platform, places the landing point of the first-layer truss photovoltaic platform into the support tube 302, and locks it with the locking component 303; After the first-floor photovoltaic platform is installed and reinforced, technicians, quality inspectors, and safety officers will conduct a joint inspection to confirm that the platform is not tilted or loose, the fixing frame is not deformed, and the pins and accessories are complete and locked. Only after the inspection is passed and the sign is signed to confirm that the second-floor fixing frame installation work can be carried out.
[0056] S23, install the second layer support column 202 to the upper end of the bottom layer support column 201, and install a set of tooling support platform components 3 on the second layer support column 202; S24, the crane lifts the second-layer truss photovoltaic platform, places the landing point of the second-layer truss photovoltaic platform into the support tube 302, and locks it with the locking component 303; The second-layer truss photovoltaic platform strictly followed the first-layer hoisting process to complete the trial hoisting, translation, and low-speed placement operations. During the placement process, a safe distance of no less than 100mm was maintained between the second-layer platform and the fixed frame to avoid collision damage to the structure.
[0057] S25, install the third layer support column 204 to the upper end of the second layer support column 202, and install a set of tooling support platform assembly 3 on the third layer support column 204; S26, the crane lifts the third-layer truss photovoltaic platform, places the landing point of the third-layer truss photovoltaic platform into the support tube 302, and locks it with the locking component 303; After the third-layer truss photovoltaic platform passes the acceptance test, the alignment, insertion and pin locking of the third-layer plug-in fixed frame are completed with reference to the installation process of the second-layer grid photovoltaic platform. During the installation process, the coaxiality and overall verticality of the three-layer columns are checked, and the center deviation of the columns is controlled to be ≤5mm and the cumulative verticality deviation is ≤15mm to ensure that the upper load is evenly distributed without eccentric load. S27, install the top support column 206 to the upper end of the third support column 204, and install a set of tooling support platform components 3 on the top support column 206; S28, the crane lifts the fourth-layer truss photovoltaic platform, places the landing point of the fourth-layer truss photovoltaic platform into the support tube 302, and locks it with the locking component 303.
[0058] The fourth-layer truss photovoltaic platform was installed using a low-speed, small-amplitude hoisting method. The crane was used to precisely connect the connection points and then slowly lower the platform into place. After the platform was in place, it was left to stand still for 5 minutes to confirm that there were no abnormal deformations or noises in the overall stacked structure before subsequent reinforcement work was carried out.
[0059] The entire structure was reinforced, with reinforcement personnel carrying out comprehensive reinforcement around the fourth-floor truss photovoltaic platform and adding diagonal windproof ropes at the top. This ensured that the four-layer stacked structure formed a rigid overall system, meeting the stability requirements for long-distance maritime transport.
[0060] After all the truss photovoltaic platforms were assembled, the quality inspectors and installers conducted a full inspection from bottom to top, focusing on checking that all welds were free from cracks and deformation, that the pins and cotter pins were fully locked, that the reinforcing ropes were not loose, and that the anti-slip and limiting devices were effective. They also confirmed that each platform was free from tilting, displacement, and local deformation.
[0061] For overall acceptance, the overall structural acceptance must ensure that the total verticality deviation of the stacked assembly is ≤20mm, there is no obvious shaking when the top platform is gently pushed manually, there is no relative displacement between layers, and the joints of each platform fit tightly without any gaps, meeting the safety requirements for maritime transportation.

[0065] A full ship safety inspection was conducted, with the crew performing a safety check of the entire vessel to confirm that the tooling, platforms, and hull were reliably connected, that there were no abnormalities in the external supports and mooring points, and that debris and tools on the deck were cleared to ensure unobstructed access for operations.
[0066] Weather and route confirmation: The dispatcher and captain jointly confirm the navigation operation window, ensuring that the wind speed is ≤12m / s and the wave height is ≤1.5m during transportation, planning a safe navigation route and avoiding severe weather and dangerous sea areas, and completing the report to the maritime authorities.
[0067] After completing the documentation and approval process, the ship finally compiles a complete set of documents, including tooling installation records, welding flaw detection reports, reinforcement inspection records, ship stability calculation sheets, and weather notices, and completes the shipment approval procedures, thus making the ship ready for formal shipment.
[0068] This offshore photovoltaic platform stacked transport tooling and method, by setting up a grid platform installation base group 104 and a truss platform installation base group 105 on the upper surface of the base frame 101, can be compatible with the transport of two different photovoltaic platforms. This reduces the manufacturing cost of two sets of transport tooling adapted to different platforms that would otherwise need to be made for a single ship. At the same time, it eliminates the need for tooling replacement, reduces time consumption, and improves ship transport efficiency.
[0069] By setting up a pluggable structure for the stacked transport fixing bracket assembly 2, and combining it with a support platform, a four-layer load-bearing structure can be formed, enabling the stacked transport of four photovoltaic platforms, significantly improving the ship's space utilization and single-ship transport capacity. The pluggable fixing frame design of the dedicated stacked transport tooling simplifies the tooling installation and dismantling process, effectively improving the efficiency of tooling assembly and dismantling as well as the efficiency of photovoltaic platform loading operations.
