Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of marine engineering, in particular to a face protection block for a breakwater. Background Art
[0002] Breakwaters are important marine engineering structures whose primary function is to withstand the impact of waves and protect ports, coastlines, and offshore facilities. Face armor blocks are a crucial component of breakwaters, protecting the breakwater from erosion and damage caused by waves. Traditional face armor blocks have relatively simple shapes, such as four-legged cones and twisted I-shaped blocks. These blocks have several drawbacks when it comes to resisting wave impact, including suboptimal wave dissipation and insufficient stability. Therefore, there is a need to develop a new type of face armor block to improve the protective performance of breakwaters. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a face armor block for a breakwater to solve the problems in the prior art.
[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention specifically provides the following technical solutions:
[0005] A face protection block for a breakwater comprises a breakwater sphere, the surface of which is provided with a plurality of conical protrusions, and a plurality of the breakwater spheres are placed side by side to form a spherical breakwater.
[0006] According to a preferred solution provided by a face armor block for a breakwater, a plurality of installation grooves are provided on the breakwater sphere, and a conical protrusion is placed in each of the installation grooves.
[0007] According to a preferred solution provided by a face block for a breakwater, a conical groove for accommodating a conical protrusion is provided on the surface of the breakwater sphere.
[0008] Based on a preferred solution provided by a face block for a breakwater, the conical grooves and the installation sinks are equidistantly distributed on the surface of the breakwater sphere, and the number of the conical grooves and the number of the installation sinks are the same.
[0009] According to a preferred solution provided by a face block for a breakwater, one of the conical protrusions on the breakwater sphere in the spherical breakwater is inserted into the conical groove of the adjacent breakwater sphere.
[0010] Based on a preferred solution provided by a face block for a breakwater, when a plurality of the spherical breakwaters are stacked in the vertical direction, one of the conical protrusions on the breakwater sphere in the vertical direction is inserted into the conical groove of the adjacent breakwater sphere.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] 1. The unique shape design of this utility model can effectively disperse the energy of the waves and improve the wave-breaking effect. When the waves hit the face blocks, the ellipsoidal protrusions can change the direction and speed of the waves, so that the energy is fully dispersed, thereby reducing the impact of the waves on the breakwater.
[0013] 2. The evenly distributed ellipsoidal protrusions make the block more evenly stressed when impacted by waves, thereby improving the stability and durability of the block. This design can reduce the movement and damage of the block and extend the service life of the breakwater.
[0014] 3. The combination of a spherical body and conical protrusions makes the blocks more flexible during installation and use, adapting to different breakwater structures and wave conditions. In addition, this shape can reduce the gaps between blocks, improving the protective performance of the breakwater. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0021] The following first describes the concepts involved in this application with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the following description of each concept is intended only to make the content of this application easier to understand and does not limit the scope of protection of this application. At the same time, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other unless there is a conflict. The following detailed description of this application will be made with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with the embodiments.
[0022] Example
[0023] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the utility model provides a face protection block for a breakwater, comprising a breakwater sphere 1, a surface of which is provided with a plurality of conical protrusions 2, and a plurality of breakwater spheres 1 are placed side by side to form a spherical breakwater 3.
[0024] As a further explanation of this embodiment, in the prior art, the shapes of traditional face protection blocks are relatively simple, such as four-legged cones, twisted I-shaped blocks, etc. These blocks have some shortcomings in resisting the impact of waves, such as unsatisfactory wave-breaking effects and insufficient stability. The utility model provides a face protection block for a breakwater, the main body of which is a spherical breakwater 1, and a plurality of conical protrusions 2 are fixedly installed on the breakwater 1. When the breakwater spheres 1 are placed side by side to form a continuous spherical breakwater 3, a barrier is formed to effectively resist the invasion of waves. The presence of the conical protrusion 2 effectively disperses and absorbs the energy of the waves when they hit the wave-breaking sphere 1. The conical protrusion 2 converts the impact energy of the waves into other forms of energy, thereby greatly reducing the direct impact of the waves on the breakwater. Furthermore, the design of the conical protrusion 2 also promotes the breaking and dissipation of waves. When the waves come into contact with the conical protrusion 2, the flow direction of the waves will change due to the guidance of the protruding surface, resulting in disorder inside the waves, thereby promoting the breaking of the waves. Once the waves break, their energy will be greatly reduced, and the threat to the breakwater will also be reduced. In addition, the arc avoided by the wave-breaking sphere 1 also has the same effect as the conical protrusion 2 when facing waves, which makes the overall service life of the spherical breakwater 3 longer and the wave elimination effect more significant.
[0025] Furthermore, a plurality of mounting grooves 4 are provided on the wave-breaking sphere 1 , and a conical protrusion 2 is placed in each mounting groove 4 .
[0026] As a further explanation of this embodiment, the conical protrusion 2 in this embodiment serves as the main technical means for eliminating waves. Although it has a strong effect during actual use, as a partial feature of the wave-breaking sphere 1, its irregular protrusion amplitude causes greater obstacles during the transportation and placement of the wave-breaking sphere 1. Therefore, it is necessary to disassemble the conical protrusion 2 during the transportation of the wave-breaking sphere 1, so that the wave-breaking sphere 1 as a sphere occupies a smaller space and the obstacles during transportation are greatly reduced. When the square wave sphere needs to be placed, the conical protrusion 2 is placed in the installation groove 4 and can be put into use directly.
[0027] Furthermore, a conical groove 5 for accommodating the conical protrusion 2 is provided on the surface of the wave-breaking sphere 1 .
[0028] Furthermore, the conical grooves 5 and the installation sinks 4 are evenly distributed on the surface of the wave-breaking sphere 1, and the number of the conical grooves 5 and the installation sinks 4 are the same.
[0029] Furthermore, one of the conical protrusions 2 on the wave-breaking sphere 1 in the spherical breakwater 3 is inserted into the conical groove 5 of the adjacent wave-breaking sphere 1 .
[0030] Furthermore, when multiple spherical breakwaters 3 are stacked in the vertical direction, one of the conical protrusions 2 on the vertical breakwater sphere 1 is inserted into the conical groove 5 of the adjacent breakwater sphere 1 .
[0031] As a further explanation of this embodiment, in this embodiment, during the placement of the spherical breakwater 3, one of the conical protrusions 2 is inserted into the groove on the adjacent breakwater sphere 1, so that the connection between the breakwater spheres 1 is tighter, thereby enhancing the stability of the spherical breakwater 3. Specifically, after multiple breakwater spheres 1 are connected to each other to form a spherical breakwater 3, the spherical breakwater 3 is arranged along the waves. When the waves hit the spherical breakwater 3, the impact force of the waves on the spherical breakwater 3 will be transmitted to the conical protrusion 2. Since the conical protrusion 2 penetrates into the conical groove 5, after the breakwater sphere 1 is subjected to the impact force, the resistance force between the conical protrusion 2 and the conical groove 5 is gradually transmitted and dissipated The impact force entering the breakwater sphere 1, thereby making the spherical breakwater 3 have good stability.
