Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of artificial floating islands, and in particular relates to a wind and wave resistant artificial floating island. Background Art

[0002] When developing and constructing islands and reefs, a large number of marine engineering vessels are needed, and a large number of construction personnel and equipment are deployed on the islands. Many islands and reefs are not conducive to construction in their natural state. For example, there are large areas of submerged reefs outside the main body of the islands and reefs. The water above the reefs is very shallow, and ordinary ships cannot cross the reefs to approach the main body of the islands and reefs. In the early stages of construction, there are no deep-water docks on the main body of the islands and reefs for mooring. Construction materials can only be transported to deep waters near the islands and reefs by cargo ships, and then transported by shallow-draft boats. Therefore, an artificial floating island is needed. After the artificial floating island is placed in the water, it can be used for berthing of ships to facilitate unloading.

[0003] When splicing existing artificial floating islands, multiple plastic floats are fixed together with bolts or snaps, which makes it impossible to adjust the angles between adjacent plastic modules and prevent them from moving with the fluctuations of the water surface. When the water surface fluctuates greatly during the unloading process, the plastic floats are easily damaged due to the limited movable angle, which poses a great limitation. Summary of the invention

[0004] The utility model provides a wind and wave resistant artificial floating island, which aims to solve the problem that in the existing artificial floating island, a plurality of plastic floating plates are fixed together by bolts or buckles during splicing, resulting in that the angles between adjacent plastic modules cannot be adjusted and they cannot move with the fluctuations of the water surface. Furthermore, when the water surface fluctuates greatly during the unloading process, the plastic floating plates are easily damaged due to the limited movable angle, which results in great limitations.

[0005] An embodiment of the utility model provides a wind and wave resistant artificial floating island, comprising a first fixing frame and a second fixing frame, wherein the first fixing frame is located outside the second fixing frame, an outer peripheral side of the first fixing frame and an inner peripheral side of the second fixing frame are both fixedly connected with inflatable float rings, a plurality of floating plates are installed between the first fixing frame and the second fixing frame, and a connecting mechanism is provided on the floating plates.

[0006] Furthermore, the connection mechanism includes a first connection rod and a second connection rod fixedly connected to the outer peripheral side of the floating plate, the first connection rod has a ball joint fixedly connected to one end away from the floating plate, and the second connection rod has an interface fixedly connected to one end away from the floating plate.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, a plurality of floating plates can be connected together through the ball joint and the interface.

[0008] Furthermore, the interface includes a lower interface, the upper surface of which is hinged with an upper interface, the upper interface and the lower interface are fixed by bolts, a hemispherical cavity is formed between the lower interface and the upper interface, and an opening is provided at one end of the lower interface and the upper interface away from the floating plate.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, since the upper interface is hinged with the lower interface, the upper interface can be opened to make the opening larger. After the spherical joint is inserted, the upper interface is closed and fixed with the lower interface by bolts, thereby movably connecting the two floating plates together.

[0010] Furthermore, the spherical joint and the spherical cavity formed between the lower interface and the upper interface are adapted to each other, the spherical joint can move and rotate in the spherical cavity, and the diameter of the opening is smaller than the diameter of the spherical joint.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, when the spherical joint is placed in the spherical cavity formed between the lower interface and the upper interface, since the opening diameter is smaller than the diameter of the spherical joint, the interface can engage the spherical joint in the internal cavity to prevent the floating plates from detaching due to looseness of the surface.

[0012] Furthermore, a plurality of ball joints and interfaces are installed on the inner circumference of the first fixing frame and the outer circumference of the second fixing frame.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the ball joint and the interface on the floating plate can be connected with the ball joint and the interface between the first fixing frame and the second fixing frame, so that the floating plate floats between the first fixing frame and the second fixing frame.

[0014] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0015] 1. The utility model provides a connection mechanism, so that the floating plate, the first fixing frame and the second fixing frame can be connected to each other through a spherical joint and an interface. At the same time, the spherical joint can rotate freely in a hemispherical cavity formed between a lower interface and an upper interface, so that the angle of the entire floating plate can be adjusted arbitrarily with the fluctuation of the water surface, which greatly reduces the overall limitation.

[0016] 2. The utility model greatly improves the overall buoyancy by providing an inflatable float ring, so that the first fixing frame, the second fixing frame and the floating plate can float on the water surface better and will not sink into the water due to excessive weight.

[0017] Other features and advantages of the utility model will be described in the following description, and partly become apparent from the description, or understood by implementing the utility model. The purpose and other advantages of the utility model can be realized and obtained through the structures particularly pointed out in the description and the drawings.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the technical solution of the utility model clearer, the technical solution of the embodiment of the utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings of the specific embodiments of the utility model. The same figure marks in the drawings represent the same parts. It should be noted that the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the described embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0025] Reference Figure 1 The utility model embodiment provides an artificial floating island resistant to wind and waves, including a first fixing frame 1 and a second fixing frame 2, the first fixing frame 1 is located outside the second fixing frame 2, the outer peripheral side of the first fixing frame 1 and the inner peripheral side of the second fixing frame 2 are fixedly connected with an inflatable floating ring 3, a plurality of floating plates 4 are installed between the first fixing frame 1 and the second fixing frame 2, and a connecting mechanism 5 is provided on the floating plates 4.

[0026] Reference Figure 1-4The connecting mechanism 5 includes a first connecting rod 51 and a second connecting rod 52 fixedly connected to the outer peripheral side of the floating plate 4, the first connecting rod 51 is fixedly connected to a ball joint 53 at one end away from the floating plate 4, and the second connecting rod 52 is fixedly connected to an interface 54 at one end away from the floating plate 4, and the interface 54 includes a lower interface 541, and an upper interface 542 is hinged on the upper surface of the lower interface 541, and the upper interface 542 is fixed to the lower interface 541 by bolts 543, and a hemispherical cavity is formed between the lower interface 541 and the upper interface 542, and an opening 544 is provided at one end of the lower interface 541 and the upper interface 542 away from the floating plate 4. Because the upper interface 542 is hinged to the lower interface 541, the upper interface 542 can be opened, so that the opening 544 becomes larger, and after the ball joint 53 is inserted, the upper interface 542 is closed, and the upper interface 542 is fixed to the lower interface 541 by bolts 543, so that the two floating plates are connected. 4 are movably connected together, the ball joint 53 and the spherical cavity formed between the lower interface 541 and the upper interface 542 are adapted to each other, the ball joint 53 can be movably rotated in the spherical cavity, the diameter of the opening 544 is smaller than the diameter of the ball joint 53, when the ball joint 53 is placed in the spherical cavity formed between the lower interface 541 and the upper interface 542, because the diameter of the opening 544 is smaller than the diameter of the ball joint 53, the interface 54 can engage the ball joint 53 in the internal cavity to prevent the surface from being separated from the floating plates 4 due to looseness. A plurality of ball joints 53 and interfaces 54 are installed on the inner peripheral side of the first fixing frame 1 and the outer peripheral side of the second fixing frame 2. The ball joints 53 and interfaces 54 on the floating plate 4 can be connected with the ball joints 53 and interfaces 54 between the first fixing frame 1 and the second fixing frame 2, so that the floating plate 4 floats between the first fixing frame 1 and the second fixing frame 2.

[0027] The specific implementation method is as follows: when in use, several floating plates 4 are connected together with the interface 54 through the ball joint 53 on the peripheral side. Since the upper interface 542 is hinged with the lower interface 541, the upper interface 542 can be opened. After the upper interface 542 on the interface 54 on the peripheral side of one floating plate 4 is opened, the ball joint 53 of another floating plate 4 is placed on the lower interface 541, and the upper interface 542 is covered again, so that the ball joint 53 is wrapped in the hemispherical cavity formed by the upper interface 542 and the lower interface 541, and then the upper interface 542 and the lower interface 541 are fixed by the bolt 543, so that the upper interface 542 cannot be opened at will, and the ball joint 53 can be fixed in the cavity formed by the upper interface 542 and the lower interface 541. The diameter of the opening 544 is smaller than the diameter of the ball joint 53, so that the two floating plates 4 cannot be easily separated without being damaged, which greatly improves the tightness of the connection. At the same time, the ball joint 53 can rotate freely in the cavity, so that when the water surface has large fluctuations, the floating plates 4 connected to each other can be adjusted in angle as the water surface fluctuates, which greatly reduces the overall limitations and effectively avoids the fracture and damage of the connection due to the rigid connection structure. At the same time, the floating plate 4 can be connected to the first fixing frame 1 and the second fixing frame 2 through the ball joint 53 and the interface 54, and the inflatable float 3 can greatly improve the buoyancy, so that the first fixing frame 1 and the second fixing frame 2 can float on the water better and will not sink into the water due to excessive weight.

[0028] The above shows and describes the basic principle and main features of the utility model and the advantages of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are only for explaining the principle of the utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, the utility model may have various changes and improvements, which fall within the scope of the utility model to be protected.
