[0002] In existing small-scale trailing suction dredgers, the propeller is generally driven by a diesel engine located in the stern engine room, and the mud pump is located at the bow and driven independently by the diesel engine. A mud tank and several mud doors are set between the engine room and the pump room. The living cabin is located above the stern engine room. That is, it is an independently driven type. Its disadvantages are large total installed power, poor environmental protection, and a large workload for routine maintenance. The large space occupied by the equipment leads to a large overall size and displacement of the entire ship, which cannot be used in shallow draft operation areas. The diesel engine is driven alone, and power transfer and management cannot be achieved, and the automation is low.

[0003] The existing technology also has a generator set located in the rear engine room to power the propeller and the entire ship power system, that is, a fully electric drive type. Its disadvantage is that the power station setting is relatively complex, and the power transfer function can be realized, but the management and use are very cumbersome, the requirements for operators are also very high, and the initial investment is high.

[0019] Reference Figure 1-3 A small trailing suction dredger driven by a composite power comprises a hull 15. A bow thruster 7 and a ballast tank 8 are installed one after another on the lower right side of the hull 15 from left to right. The bow thruster 7 assists the ship in adjusting the course or berthing with the dock. The ballast tank 8 is used to adjust the floating state of the ship. A trailing suction pipe device 4 is symmetrically installed on the upper left side of the hull 15. The gate valve is used to switch to use the single-side trailing suction pipe device 4. A mud tank 3 is provided in the middle of the hull 15. A main diesel engine 2 is symmetrically installed inside the left side of the hull 15. The main diesel engine 2 One output end is connected to a main engine gearbox 10 and a shaft generator 11, which provides power for electrical equipment throughout the ship. The output end of the main engine gearbox 10 passes through the hull 15 and is equipped with an adjustable pitch propeller 1. The other output end of the main diesel engine 2 is connected to a reduction connecting device 6, one output end of which is connected to a mud pump 5, and the other output end of which is connected to a high-pressure flushing pump 9. One end of the high-pressure flushing pump 9 and the mud pump 5 are both connected to a rake suction pipe device 4.

[0020] A watertight bulkhead 13 is installed inside the hull 15. The high-pressure flushing pump 9 and the mud pump 5 are located on one side of the watertight bulkhead 13, and the speed reduction connecting device 6 is located on the other side of the watertight bulkhead 13. The main diesel engine 2 and the mud pump 5 are separated by the watertight bulkhead 13 to avoid damage to the main diesel engine 2 when the mud pump 5 is damaged, thereby enhancing the reliability of the operation.

[0021] The bow thruster 7 is located at the bow, the main diesel engine 2 is located at the stern, and a deckhouse 14 is placed on the upper part of the hull 15. The deckhouse 14 is located above the bow thruster 7. The crew controls the ship forward or backward in the deckhouse 14 near the bow, which physically isolates the ship from vibration and noise and improves the living comfort of the personnel.

[0022] A generator set 12 is installed inside the hull 15 for backup use, and can be switched for use at any time when the shaft generator 11 fails.

[0023] Working principle: When sailing, the main diesel engine 2 drives the adjustable pitch propeller 1 and the shaft generator 11 through the main engine gearbox 10. The crew controls the ship forward or backward at the bow position of the deckhouse 14, and assists the ship to adjust its course or dock with the pier through the bow thruster 7. The shaft generator 11 provides power for the electrical equipment of the whole ship. The generator set 12 is in standby and can be switched at any time when the shaft generator 11 fails. The buoyancy of the ship is adjusted through the ballast tank 8.

[0024] During dredging operations, the main diesel engine 2 on one side drives the adjustable pitch propeller 1 through the main engine gear box 10, while the free end drives the mud pump 5 through the reduction connection device 6; the main diesel engine 2 on the other side drives the adjustable pitch propeller 1 through the main engine gear box 10, while the free end drives the high-pressure flushing pump 9 through the reduction connection device 6, and the rake suction pipe device 4 is lowered to the seabed. The high-pressure flushing pump 9 provides high-pressure water to the end of the single-sided rake suction pipe device 4 to crush the soil, and the mud pump 5 sucks the mud into the mud tank 3 through the single-sided rake suction pipe device 4 and the mud pipe, thereby realizing the function of single rake operation while sailing, and the generator set 12 provides power for the electrical equipment of the entire ship.
