Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of marine engineering, in particular to a floating anchor device. Background Art

[0002] Anchor buoys and anchor cables are essential configurations on marine engineering vessels or platforms equipped with positioning anchors, and are key equipment for positioning anchors and lifting anchors. The anchor buoys and anchor cables currently used are directly connected through shackles, and the anchor cables are directly connected to the anchor. When lifting anchors, the anchor boat pulls up the sunken anchor through the eye plate on the anchor buoy. It can be seen that when the anchor sinks to the bottom, the anchor buoy needs to bear the weight of the anchor cable and the anchor buoy itself, and at the same time it needs to ensure that it floats on the water surface, which results in the anchor buoy itself being larger and more bulky. At the same time, since the anchor cable floats in the water, under the action of wind and waves, if the anchor cable is tightened, the anchor cable needs to bear the weight and grip of the positioning anchor. In order to avoid breaking the anchor cable, the steel wire rope required for the anchor cable will be relatively thick and heavy. In addition, the anchor cable will also exert tension on the anchor, which in turn affects the grip of the anchor, causing the ship to drift. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the utility model provides a floating anchor device, which can reduce the volume of the anchor buoy and the weight of the anchor cable, while avoiding the influence of the anchor cable on the anchor grip.

[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiment of the utility model clearer, the technical solution of the embodiment of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings of the embodiment of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiment is a part of the embodiment of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the described embodiment of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field belong to the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0026] In order to facilitate the understanding of the technical solution of the present utility model, the technical problem to be solved by the present utility model is first described.

[0027] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the structure of the floating anchor device in some embodiments. Figure 1 As shown, the first anchor buoy 100' is connected to the first anchor cable 200' through a shackle, and the first anchor cable 200' is a steel cable, and the end of the first anchor cable 200' away from the first anchor buoy 100' is connected to the first anchor 400' through a shackle. When the first anchor 400' sinks to the bottom, the first anchor cable 200' is pulled by the first anchor buoy 100' and floats in the water. When raising the anchor, the anchoring boat will pull up the first anchor buoy 100' and the first anchor cable 200' through the eye plate on the first anchor buoy 100', and then pull up the first anchor 400' through the first anchor cable 200'. At this time, the first anchor buoy 100' needs to bear the weight of the first anchor cable 200' and the first anchor buoy 100' itself, and because the first anchor buoy 100' also needs to ensure floating on the water, this causes the first anchor buoy 100' itself to be larger and heavier. In addition, when the first anchor cable 200' is floating in the water, under the action of wind and waves, if the first anchor cable 200' is tightened, the first anchor cable 200' needs to bear the weight and grip of the first anchor 400'. In order to avoid breaking the first anchor cable 200', the steel wire rope required for the first anchor cable 200' will be thicker and heavier. In addition, the first anchor cable 200' will also generate tension on the first anchor 400', thereby affecting the grip of the first anchor 400', causing the ship to drift.

[0028] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a floating anchor device.

[0029] A floating anchor device according to an embodiment of the utility model is first described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 Schematic diagram of the structure of the floating anchor device of the utility model embodiment. Figure 2As shown, the floating anchor device of the embodiment of the utility model comprises: an anchor buoy 100, a buoyant tow line 200 and an anchor cable 300. The anchor buoy 100 is used to float on the water surface; one end of the buoyant tow line 200 is detachably connected to the anchor buoy 100; one end of the anchor cable 300 is detachably connected to an end of the buoyant tow line 200 away from the anchor buoy 100, and the other end of the anchor cable 300 is used to connect to the ship anchor 400. When the ship anchor 400 sinks to the bottom of the water, the buoyant tow line 200 floats in the water, and the anchor cable 300 lies flat on the bottom of the water.

[0031] In this embodiment, by using the floating towline 200 to connect the anchor buoy 100 and the anchor cable 300 respectively, when the anchor 400 sinks to the bottom of the water, the floating towline 200 will float in the water spontaneously due to the buoyancy, that is, the anchor buoy 100 only needs to overcome its own gravity when floating on the water surface. Therefore, when designing and manufacturing the anchor buoy 100, the volume and weight of the anchor buoy 100 can be effectively reduced. When the anchor is raised, since the anchor buoy 100 only needs to overcome its own gravity when floating on the water surface, the anchor boat can pull up the anchor cable 300 lying flat on the bottom of the water through the floating towline 200 connected to the anchor buoy 100 and the anchor cable 300 respectively after recovering the anchor buoy 100. Since the anchor cable 300 lies flat on the bottom of the water, the anchor cable 300 will not be stretched straight in a windy and wave environment, so it does not need to bear the weight and grip of the anchor 400. As a result, the diameter and weight of the anchor cable 300 can be effectively reduced. In addition, since the anchor cable 300 lies flat on the bottom of the water, the anchor cable 300 will not generate tension on the anchor 400 in a windy and wavey environment, thereby avoiding the anchor cable 300 from affecting the grip of the anchor 400, thereby effectively improving the safety of the ship.

[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, the anchor buoy 100 is detachably connected to one end of the floating line 200 through the first shackle 110. Thus, by connecting the anchor buoy 100 and the floating line 200 respectively through the first shackle 110, the anchor buoy 100 can be easily installed and removed, and the anchor buoy 100 can be easily repaired and replaced.

[0033] like Figure 2 As shown, one end of the anchor cable 300 is detachably connected to the end of the floating line 200 away from the anchor buoy 100 through the second shackle 310, and the other end of the anchor cable 300 is detachably connected to the anchor 400 through the third shackle 320. Therefore, the anchor cable 300 can be easily repaired and replaced.

[0034] In one embodiment of the present invention, the density of the buoyant cable 200 is less than the density of water, and the material of the buoyant cable 200 is polypropylene. Specifically, the density of polypropylene is less than the density of water, so the buoyant cable 200 can float spontaneously in the water. At the same time, due to the high strength of the polypropylene cable, when the anchoring boat recovers the anchor buoy 100, the anchor cable 300 lying flat on the bottom of the water can be stably pulled up by the buoyant cable 200. In addition, due to the strong corrosion resistance of polypropylene, the service life of the buoyant cable 200 in a high-salinity environment such as the ocean can be effectively improved.

[0035] In one embodiment of the utility model, the anchor buoy 100 includes: a steel watertight shell and filling foam. Among them, the first shackle 110 is arranged on the steel watertight shell; the filling foam is filled in the steel watertight shell. The steel watertight shell has good watertightness, which can effectively prevent seawater from entering the interior of the anchor buoy 100 to reduce the buoyancy of the anchor buoy 100. In addition, by arranging the filling foam in the steel watertight shell, the buoyancy of the anchor buoy 100 can be effectively improved.

[0036] like Figure 2 As shown, the steel watertight shell is a spherical shell. The spherical shell has high stability and can remain stable in waves and water currents in different directions, and is not easy to tilt or overturn. This improves the wind and wave resistance of the anchor buoy 100. In addition, under the same material and volume, the spherical shell can provide the maximum buoyancy, effectively improving the bearing capacity and stability of the anchor buoy 100.

[0037] In one embodiment of the utility model, a radar reflector (not shown) is provided on the steel watertight shell. By providing the radar reflector, the ship's radar can detect the anchor buoy 100 under various weather conditions and lighting conditions. Thus, the ship's positioning capability of the anchor buoy 100 is effectively improved.

[0038] like Figure 2 As shown, a lifting ring 120 is provided at one end of the steel watertight shell away from the first shackle 110. Thus, it is convenient for the anchor boat to recover the anchor buoy 100.

[0039] In one embodiment of the utility model, a navigation light (not shown) is provided on the steel watertight shell. By providing the navigation light, the visibility of the anchor buoy 100 under low light conditions can be improved, thereby facilitating the ship to locate the anchor buoy 100.

[0040] In summary, the floating anchor device of the present invention uses the buoyant towline 200 to connect the anchor buoy 100 and the anchor cable 300 respectively, the buoyant towline 200 is suspended in the water, and the anchor buoy 100 only needs to meet its own buoyancy, thereby effectively reducing the volume and weight of the anchor buoy 100. At the same time, since the anchor cable 300 can lie flat on the bottom of the water, the anchor cable 300 does not need to bear the weight and grip of the anchor 400 in a windy and wave environment, and the anchor cable 300 will not generate tension on the anchor 400, thereby reducing the weight of the anchor cable 300 and avoiding the anchor cable 300 from affecting the grip of the anchor 400.
