Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of offshore platforms, in particular to a self-sufficient energy type integrated platform capable of offshore docking. Background Art

[0002] Offshore platforms are long-term floating infrastructure that support a wide range of offshore operations. With the advancement of offshore platform manufacturing technology, the functions of these platforms are becoming increasingly diverse. Integrating these multiple functions on a single platform requires a larger platform structure, which in turn places higher demands on the platform's layout design and the coordination between its various functional devices. Furthermore, different users have varying requirements for platform functionality. Customizing a comprehensive platform for each user would undoubtedly increase design and manufacturing costs significantly.

[0003] The best solution to these technical challenges is a modular design for integrated offshore platforms. Multiple platforms with different functions can be selected based on user needs. Separately positioned offshore, these platforms form integrated island clusters, and when combined, they form a single, integrated platform. This approach not only meets user needs but also reduces design and manufacturing complexity and costs. However, the complex offshore environment makes docking two or more platforms through navigation alone extremely challenging.

[0004] Therefore, how to create a new self-sufficient energy-type integrated platform that can be docked at sea is one of the important research and development topics at present. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a self-sufficient energy-type integrated platform that can be docked at sea. Multiple platforms can be docked at sea, while providing comprehensive functions, reducing the difficulty and cost of design and processing, thereby overcoming the shortcomings of the existing technology.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a self-sufficient energy-type integrated platform capable of docking at sea, comprising a truss, a floating body and a deck, wherein a first docking portion is provided on at least one side edge of the deck, and a second docking portion is provided on at least one side edge;

[0007] The first docking portion is a plurality of trapezoidal protrusions extending horizontally outward, with the top edge of the trapezoid being inward and the bottom edge being outward;

[0008] The second docking portion is a plurality of horizontally inwardly recessed rectangular grooves, with wedge-shaped movable plates that can be horizontally extended and retracted respectively installed on both sides of the grooves. The slope of the movable plate is equal to the slope of the first docking portion.

[0009] As an improvement of the present invention, an anti-collision airbag is detachably mounted on the side of the truss.

[0010] Furthermore, the width of the second docking portion is greater than the length of the bottom side of the first docking portion.

[0011] Furthermore, the first docking portion and the second docking portion are respectively and evenly arranged at equal intervals along different edges of the deck.

[0012] Furthermore, the deck and the truss are both in the shape of a regular hexagon, and the first docking portion and the second docking portion are arranged at intervals on three sides of the regular hexagonal deck.

[0013] Furthermore, the movable plate is fixedly connected to a hydraulic actuating rod, and the hydraulic actuating rod is used to control the extension or retraction of the movable plate.

[0014] Furthermore, a surge power generation system is provided on the side of the truss, and the surge power generation system includes a special-shaped float, a transmission device, a collection device and a generator. The special-shaped float is hinged to the end of the transmission device, the head end of the transmission device is connected to the collection device, and the collection device is connected to the generator. The special-shaped float moves up and down relative to the platform, and drives the collection device and the generator through the transmission device to supply power to all electrical equipment on the platform.

[0015] After adopting such a design, the utility model has at least the following advantages:

[0016] 1. A single platform can adopt a modular design. Platforms with different functions can be selected according to the needs of different users. Multiple platforms can meet comprehensive needs after docking at sea. Compared with tailor-made designs for each user, the difficulty and cost of design and manufacturing are greatly reduced.

[0017] 2. The setting of the first docking part and the second docking part effectively reduces the difficulty of docking at sea. Since the width of the second docking part is greater than that of the first docking part, the two do not need to be completely aligned during docking. It is only necessary to place the first docking part inside the second docking part, and then control the movable plate to extend from both sides and clamp the first docking part to complete the deck docking, meeting the passage needs of personnel and vehicles.

[0018] 3. A single platform is a regular hexagon, with the first docking portion and the second docking portion spaced apart on three side lines. The completely geometrically symmetrical shape can meet the docking requirements of multiple platforms, and there is no limit on the number of platforms.

[0019] 4. Anti-collision airbags are detachably installed on the sides of the truss to improve safety during docking.

[0020] 5. A surge power generation system is installed in the surrounding area of ​​a single platform where no docking is required to provide continuous clean energy for all electrical equipment on the platform and ensure continuous operation of the equipment. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0027] See also Figures 1 to 4 The utility model provides a self-sufficient energy-type integrated platform capable of docking at sea, comprising a deck 1, a truss 2, a floating body 3 and a surge power generation system.

[0028] The truss 2 is a welded steel frame structure used to support the offshore integrated platform. The buoys 3 are cylindrical hollow boxes evenly spaced at the bottom of the truss 2, providing buoyancy for the offshore integrated platform. The deck 1 is located atop the truss 2. The space above the deck 1 can be used to construct buildings and accommodate various functional equipment.

[0029] The shapes of the deck 1 and the truss 2 can be customized according to actual needs. A first docking portion 11 is provided at at least one side edge of the deck 1, and a second docking portion 12 is provided at at least one side edge.

[0030] In this embodiment, both the deck 1 and the trusses 2 are regular hexagons. The first docking portions 11 are arranged on three of the hexagon's sides, spaced evenly and evenly. The second docking portions 12 are arranged on the other three sides, also spaced evenly and evenly. This arrangement gives the deck 1 an overall geometrically symmetrical shape, allowing for docking of multiple platforms, with no theoretical limit on the number of platforms that can be used.

[0031] The first docking portion 11 is a plurality of trapezoidal protrusions extending outward horizontally, with the top edge of the trapezoid being inward and the bottom edge being outward.

[0032] The second docking portion 12 is a plurality of horizontally inwardly recessed rectangular grooves. The width of the second docking portion 12 is greater than the bottom width of the first docking portion 11 , so that when multiple platforms are docked, the first docking portion 11 at the corresponding position can be placed in the groove of the second docking portion 12 .

[0033] Wedge-shaped movable plates 13 are mounted on either side of the second docking portion 12. These plates are fixedly connected to hydraulic actuators 14 and can be extended or retracted by controlling the hydraulic actuators 14. The hypotenuse of the second docking portion 12 has the same slope as the hypotenuse of the first docking portion 11, ensuring that the two are completely aligned when docked.

[0034] Preferably, an anti-collision airbag 21 is detachably installed on the side of the truss 2 to serve as a safety buffer.

[0035] Preferably, a surge power generation system 4 is also installed laterally on the truss 2. This system includes a shaped buoy, a transmission device, a collection device, and a generator. The shaped buoy is hinged to the end of the transmission device, which is connected to the collection device at its head end, which is in turn connected to the generator. The shaped buoy moves up and down relative to the platform, driving the collection device and generator via the transmission device to power all electrical devices on the platform. It should be noted that the location of the surge power generation system 4 should be planned in advance and placed on a side of the platform that does not require docking to avoid interference.

[0036] During offshore docking, the present invention first uses a power unit to drive the two platforms closer together, placing the corresponding first docking portion 11 within the second docking portion 12. The hydraulic actuator 14 is then controlled to extend the movable plate 13 until both sides of the first docking portion 11 are completely clamped, completing the docking. This process can be repeated to achieve docking of multiple platforms. After docking, the decks of the multiple platforms are interconnected, allowing personnel and vehicles to travel back and forth, thus achieving functional complementarity between the multiple platforms.

[0037] The utility model reduces the difficulty of docking the offshore integrated platform by providing the first docking portion and the second docking portion, is beneficial to the modular design of the offshore integrated platform, meets comprehensive needs, and reduces the difficulty and cost of design and manufacturing.

[0038] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the present invention in any form. Those skilled in the art can make some simple modifications, equivalent changes or modifications based on the technical content disclosed above, which fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
