AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

When the existing ship cable guide holes change tidal changes and the ship loading draft changes, the cable stress angle changes, which poses certain safety risks.

Method used

A lifting cable guide hole is designed, using mechanical lifting base, lifting component, cable guide hole body and dock position monitoring component. The height difference information is obtained through the dock position monitoring component, and the lifting component is controlled to realize the rising/descending movement of the cable guide hole body, adapting to the changes in the height and height of the ship relative to the dock.

Benefits of technology

Through the use of lifting cable guide holes, the risk of changes in the mooring cable stress caused by changes in the height and height of the ship relative to the fixed dock is reduced, and the ship automatically adjusts the cable length and tension, reduces the risk of operators, and improves safety.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to ship and ocean engineering technologies, and more specifically, to a lifting fairlead. Background Art

[0002] The fairlead on a ship is used to guide or fix a cable. The fairlead / cable roller on an existing ship is directly welded and fixed on the deck. However, when the ship rises and falls on the sea surface with the tide or its own loading draft changes, there will be a height change of the ship relative to the mooring point at the dock. Although the length of the cable can be adjusted at this time, due to the change in the height difference in the vertical plane, the stress angle of the cable may change greatly, and certain risks may be brought in some extreme cases. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] Aiming at the defects existing in the prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a lifting fairlead, which is a mechanically lifted and height-adjustable fairlead, enabling the fairlead to have a lifting function.

[0005] A lifting fairlead includes a mechanical lifting base, a lifting component, a fairlead body, and a dock position monitoring component;

[0006] There are a pair of the mechanical lifting bases, symmetrically arranged at the side position of the ship;

[0007] The fairlead body is arranged between the pair of mechanical lifting bases through the lifting component, and the lifting component is used to realize the up / down movement of the fairlead body relative to the mechanical lifting base;

[0008] The dock position monitoring component is arranged at the side position of the ship, used to monitor the height difference between the dock and the deck surface of the ship, obtain position information and provide it to the lifting component to control the up / down movement of the fairlead body.

[0009] Preferably, the mechanical lifting bases are both vertically arranged box structures;

[0010] Racks are arranged on the opposite inner surfaces of the box structures.

[0011] Preferably, the lifting component includes a gear and a motor;

[0012] The gear is arranged on the output side of the motor;

[0013] The gear meshes with the rack.

[0014] Preferably, the wharf position monitoring component includes a vision sensor and an analysis and processing unit;

[0015] The vision sensor is used to obtain the position information of the ship and transmit it to the analysis and processing unit;

[0016] The analysis and processing unit is used to control the start and stop of the motor.

[0017] The lifting fairlead provided by the present utility model has a lifting function, which can reduce the risk of the change in the force of the mooring cable caused by the relative height change between the ship and the fixed mooring point of the wharf. If used in combination with the automatic detection of the wharf position and the automatic tensioning function of the cable, it can realize the automatic adjustment of the length and tension of the mooring cable of the ship, reduce the operation of relevant personnel, and be safer at the same time.
