Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of towing, in particular to an adaptive towing stability control system. Background Art

[0002] Towing refers to the operation method of using a tugboat to tow various non-self-propelled devices to sail on the sea. During the towing process, the towing rope needs to be fixed on the tugboat and the towed device, and the towed device is driven by the tugboat to move to the designated position. The devices that need to use the towing tugboat are common drilling platforms. In deep sea areas, the drilling platform is mainly floated by two air bags at the bottom and does not have the power to sail. When it needs to move, a tugboat is needed.

[0003] When the tugboat pulls the towing rope for towing, the tugboat and the towing device will swing due to the influence of various environmental factors at sea. The swinging process causes the towing rope to deviate, and it will sway left and right, resulting in an unstable connection, which may cause the towing rope to wear, break or even fall off. At the same time, the towing rope will also swing violently due to the different inclination angles between the tugboat and the towed device, thereby affecting the overall stability of the hull. Utility Model Content

[0004] (I) Technical problems solved: In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides an adaptive towing stability control system, which has the function of stabilizing the towing rope and can prevent the towing rope from shaking violently, thus solving the problem of wear and tear caused by the towing rope due to severe shaking during the towing process of the tugboat, and the instability of the hull due to the swing of the towing rope.

[0005] (II) Technical solution: In order to achieve the above-mentioned function of stabilizing the traction rope and preventing the traction rope from shaking violently, the utility model provides the following technical solution: an adaptive towing stability control system, comprising a base, a hook lock connector is arranged on the base, and the hook lock connector is connected to the traction rope;

[0006] The hook lock connecting piece is sleeved on the arc-shaped buffer rod, and the two end portions of the arc-shaped buffer rod are respectively connected to two limit blocks arranged on the end faces of the base, and a buffer spring is sleeved on the arc-shaped buffer rod between the limit blocks and the hook lock connecting piece. The hook lock connecting piece is connected to a swinging disc, and a latch tooth is arranged on the swinging disc. The swinging disc is meshed with the latch tooth arranged on the sliding rod through the latch tooth.

[0011] (III) Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, the utility model provides an adaptive towing stability control system, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] 1. The adaptive towing stability control system realizes the control of the towing rope through the arrangement of the arc-shaped buffer rod, the buffer spring and the hook lock connector, so as to ensure that the towing rope will not shake or tilt greatly during towing. When the hull shakes greatly, most of the force can be unloaded by the buffer spring, so as to avoid the chain reaction of the towed device due to the force transmitted by the towing rope. At the same time, the arrangement of the buffer spring and the hook lock connector can ensure to a certain extent that the towing rope will not break due to friction with the hull due to shaking and tilting, thereby increasing the safety of the towing rope.

[0019] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in 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.

[0020] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 , an adaptive towing stability control system, comprising a base 1, on which a hook lock connector 2 is provided, and the hook lock connector 2 is connected to a towing rope 3;

[0021] The hook lock connector 2 is sleeved on the arc buffer rod 4, and the two end portions of the arc buffer rod 4 are respectively connected to two limit blocks 6 arranged on the end faces of the base 1. A buffer spring 5 is sleeved on the arc buffer rod 4 between the limit blocks 6 and the hook lock connector 2. The hook lock connector 2 is connected to a swinging disc 7, and a latch tooth is arranged on the swinging disc 7. The swinging disc 7 is meshed with the latch teeth arranged on the sliding rod 8 through the latch teeth. A sliding pointer 9 is arranged on the sliding rod 8, and a swing table 10 is arranged on the base 1 at the position corresponding to the sliding pointer 9.

[0022] The adaptive towing stability control system mainly includes a base 1, a hook lock connector 2, an arc-shaped buffer rod 4, a buffer spring 5, a swing disc 7, a sliding rod 8 and other components. Among them, the base 1 serves as a supporting platform for the entire system, and the hook lock connector 2 is responsible for connecting the traction rope 3 to the system. The combination of the arc-shaped buffer rod 4 and the buffer spring 5 provides a powerful buffer function for the system, which can reduce the impact of the hull shaking on the traction rope 3. The swing disc 7 and the sliding rod 8 are engaged with each other through the latching teeth, realizing real-time monitoring and adjustment of the state of the traction rope 3.

[0023] First, fix the base 1 on the hull of the tugboat, then put the hook lock connector 2 on the arc-shaped buffer rod 4 and connect it to the towing rope 3. Make sure that all components are firmly installed and reliably connected. After starting the tugboat, the system starts working. At this time, the operator can understand the real-time status of the towing rope 3 by observing the position of the swing meter 10 and the sliding pointer 9. During the towing process, the operator needs to pay attention to the status of the system device at all times. When the hull shakes, the arc-shaped buffer rod 4 and the buffer spring 5 will play a buffering role to reduce the impact on the towing rope 3. At the same time, the swing disc 7 and the sliding rod 8 will automatically adjust their positions according to the actual situation, and display the inclination angle of the towing rope 3 in real time.

[0024] The core of the system lies in its adaptive stability control mechanism. When the tugboat encounters wind and waves or other external factors that cause the hull to shake during navigation, the arc-shaped buffer rod 4 and buffer spring 5 will respond quickly to reduce the impact on the towing rope 3 by absorbing and dispersing the impact force. At the same time, the swing disc 7 and the sliding rod 8 will automatically adjust according to the real-time status of the towing rope 3 to ensure that the towing rope 3 always remains in a stable state. This adaptive adjustment capability enables the system to cope with various complex navigation environments and ensure the safety and stability of the towing process.

[0025] Through the adaptive stability control mechanism, the system can significantly reduce the impact and friction on the towing rope 3 caused by the swaying of the hull, thereby improving the stability of the towing process. The stable state of the towing rope 3 can ensure that the towed device will not be damaged by excessive shaking or impact during navigation, thereby ensuring the safety of towing. By real-time monitoring and adjusting the state of the towing rope 3, the system can reduce delays and losses caused by improper operation or equipment failure and improve towing efficiency. Because the system has strong buffering and adaptive adjustment capabilities, it can reduce equipment wear and failure rate, thereby reducing maintenance costs.

[0026] A connecting plate 201 is provided at one end of the hook lock connector 2, and a hook lock hole 203 is provided on the connecting plate 201. A slider 202 is provided on the lower surface of the hook lock connector 2, and the slider 202 is slidably engaged with the arc-shaped slide groove 101 provided on the surface of the base 1.

[0027] The design of the connecting plate 201 at one end of the hook-lock connector 2 makes its connection with the traction rope 3 more stable. The connecting plate 201 provides a larger contact area, increases the strength and reliability of the connection point, and reduces the risk of loosening or falling off due to vibration or external force during towing. The hook-lock hole 203 set on the connecting plate 201 provides a clear positioning point for the hooking of the traction rope 3. The operator can quickly and accurately pass the traction rope 3 through the hook-lock hole 203 to achieve a quick and stable connection. This design simplifies the operation steps and improves the convenience and efficiency of the operation. The slider 202 on the lower surface of the hook-lock connector 2 and the arc-shaped slide groove 101 on the surface of the base 1 slide and engage with each other. This design enables the hook-lock connector 2 to move smoothly in the arc-shaped slide groove 101 when subjected to external force, instead of simply swinging. This smooth movement not only reduces the friction and wear caused by swinging, but also makes the entire system more stable. Even when encountering large winds and waves or hull shaking, the system can maintain the stable state of the traction rope 3 through the smooth movement of the slider 202. The mutual sliding engagement design between the slider 202 and the arc-shaped slide groove 101 reduces the wear caused by direct friction. This design enhances the durability of the system components, thereby extending the service life of the entire system.

[0028] The base 1 is fixed on the tugboat body. The lower end surface of the sliding rod 8 extends a projection downwards and is slidably engaged with the groove on the end surface of the base 1.

[0029] The fixed base 1 on the tugboat ensures the stability and reliability of the entire stability control system. Since the base 1 is the supporting platform of the entire system, its firm fixation can prevent the system from being displaced or damaged due to wind and waves or hull shaking during towing, thereby ensuring that the system can work continuously and stably. The design of the protrusion on the lower end face of the sliding rod 8 and the groove on the end face of the base 1 slidingly snap-fitted together not only enhances the connection strength between the sliding rod 8 and the base 1, but also enables the sliding rod 8 to move smoothly within a certain range. This design not only ensures that the sliding rod 8 can accurately adjust its position when needed, but also avoids system failure or damage caused by excessive movement. This snap-fit ​​design also simplifies the installation and disassembly process and improves the convenience of operation. The operator can quickly and accurately dock the protrusion of the sliding rod 8 with the groove of the base 1, thereby quickly completing the installation or disassembly of the system.

[0030] The number of the latching teeth arranged on the swinging disc 7 is the same as the number of the latching teeth on the sliding rod 8 , thereby ensuring the meshing degree between the sliding rod 8 and the swinging disc 7 .

[0031] Working principle: First, the towing rope 3 is installed and fixed through the hook lock connector 2. After the tugboat is started to move forward, the towing rope 3 will be straightened. Since a buffer spring 5 is provided, it can prevent the towing rope 3 from being instantly stretched toward the staff when the towed device is pulled, and can play a buffering role on the towing rope 3. The arc-shaped buffer rod 4 cooperates with the buffer spring 5 and the hook lock connector 2 to ensure that the towing rope 3 will not shake or tilt greatly during towing. During the operation of the tugboat, when the hull shakes greatly, most of the force can be unloaded through the buffer spring 5. And to ensure that the towed device will have a chain reaction due to the force transmitted by the towing rope 3, when the hull tilts to the right, the hook lock connector 2 will swing to the left along the arc-shaped buffer rod 4, and the buffer spring 5 will apply reverse thrust and tension to the hook lock connector 2 at the same time. Due to the setting of the buffer spring 5, the hook lock connector 2 will not instantly collide violently with the limit blocks 6 on both sides. The setting of the buffer spring 5 and the hook lock connector 2 can ensure to a certain extent that the towing rope 3 will not break due to friction with the hull due to shaking and tilting, thereby increasing the safety of the towing rope 3.
