Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shipbuilding technology, and in particular to a main engine installation sinking measurement device. Background Technology

[0002] The main engine of a ship is typically mounted on the hull base panel using epoxy resin pads, meaning that epoxy resin is poured during the main engine installation process. Since epoxy resin is liquid before pouring and solidifies afterward, it will settle to a certain extent after complete curing. To check whether the epoxy resin settling is normal, the installation height from the main engine mount to the hull base panel is measured and verified before and after the epoxy resin is poured.

[0003] like Figure 1 As shown, the current conventional method involves welding six threaded seats 10 onto the hull base panel 100 where the main engine is installed. Each threaded seat 10 contains a measuring pin 20. The six threaded seats 10 are arranged along the extension direction of the main engine base 200, in the front, middle, and rear, and side-by-side. Before epoxy resin is poured, the position of the measuring pins 20 is adjusted so that the gap between the measuring pins 20 and the main engine base 200 is 1mm. After the epoxy resin is poured and the main engine anchor bolts are tightened, the 1mm gap is checked for any changes, and the specific value is measured to obtain the actual sinking amount.

[0004] The existing solution is cumbersome. During the installation of each main engine on each vessel, the epoxy resin mounting height of the main engine needs to be measured. Measuring pins 20 and their threaded seats 10 are then fabricated based on the corresponding height. Finally, the corresponding threaded seats 10 are installed at each location on the hull pole panel, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. If the shipowner does not need to retain the measuring pins 20, the weld points must be ground and cut to remove the threaded seats 10. Furthermore, the epoxy resin height varies at different locations on the main engine, making it impossible to use the same set of measuring pins 20 and threaded seats 10 to measure all locations, resulting in poor versatility.

[0005] Therefore, a host computer with a sinking measurement device is needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a main unit installation and sinking measurement device that is easy to install and disassemble, has a certain degree of versatility, and meets the need for repeated use.

[0007] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] The main unit is equipped with a subsidence measurement device, including:

[0009] The measuring connectors are divided into two groups of six, with the two groups spaced apart. The measuring connectors in each group are equally spaced along the extension direction of the main unit base. The measuring connectors are detachably inserted into the positioning holes of the main unit base, and both ends of the measuring connectors extend out of the positioning holes.

[0010] Positioning components are provided, with multiple positioning components corresponding to the measuring connectors one by one. The positioning components are attached to the side of the main unit base away from the hull base panel. The positioning components are connected to the measuring connectors. The length of the measuring connectors extending relative to the main unit base is adjustable, so that the measuring connectors are at a set distance from the hull base panel.

[0011] A measuring component is used to measure the distance from the measuring connector to the hull base panel.

[0012] In some embodiments, the measuring connector is a measuring bolt, the positioning hole is a threaded hole, and the measuring bolt is screwed to the positioning hole and the positioning connector.

[0013] In some embodiments, the measuring connector has a round head fixedly provided coaxially at one end facing the hull base panel.

[0014] In some embodiments, the round head and the measuring connector are an integrated structure.

[0015] In some embodiments, a screwing part is fixedly provided at the end of the measuring connector.

[0016] In some embodiments, the screwing part and the measuring connector are an integrated structure.

[0017] In some embodiments, the cross-section of the screwing part is a regular hexagon.

[0018] In some embodiments, scale lines are provided on the measuring connector along its axial direction.

[0019] In some embodiments, the outer peripheral surface of the positioning element is a regular hexagon.

[0020] In some embodiments, the measuring element is a feeler gauge.

[0021] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0022] This utility model provides a main unit installation and sinking measurement device. Six positioning holes are spaced apart on the main unit base, and measuring connectors are inserted through these holes. The positioning connectors are attached to the side of the main unit base opposite to the hull base panel. The positioning connectors are connected to the measuring connectors, and the length of the measuring connectors extending relative to the main unit base is adjustable, ensuring a set distance between the measuring connectors and the hull base panel. Before epoxy resin pouring, the measuring connectors are used to measure the distance from the measuring connectors to the hull base panel. After the epoxy resin has solidified, the measuring connectors are used again to measure the distance. Because the length of the measuring connectors extending relative to the main unit base is adjustable, it can meet the needs of measuring epoxy resin of different thicknesses poured between the main unit base and the hull base panel. After use, it can be quickly disassembled for reuse, facilitating installation and disassembly while possessing a certain degree of versatility, meeting the need for repeated use.

Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes that element.

[0030] In this application, the terms "connection," "combination," "coupling," and "installation" can refer to direct connection, combination, coupling, or installation, or indirect connection, combination, coupling, or installation. For example, a direct connection refers to two parts or components being connected together without the need for an intermediary, while an indirect connection refers to two parts or components each being connected to at least one intermediary, with the connection achieved through the intermediary. Furthermore, "connection" and "coupling" are not limited to physical or mechanical connections or couplings, but can also include electrical connections or couplings.

[0031] In this application, those skilled in the art will understand that the function performed by a component can be performed by one component, multiple components, one part, or multiple parts. Similarly, the function performed by a part can also be performed by one part, one component, or a combination of multiple parts.

[0032] In this application, the directional terms "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "front," and "rear" are used to describe the orientation and positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and should not be construed as limiting the embodiments of this application. Furthermore, in the context, it should be understood that when an element is mentioned as being connected "upper" or "lower" to another element, it can be directly connected to the other element "upper" or "lower," or indirectly connected through an intermediate element. It should also be understood that directional terms such as upper side, lower side, left side, right side, front side, and rear side not only represent positive orientation but can also be understood as lateral orientation. For example, "below" can include directly below, lower left, lower right, lower front, and lower rear.

[0033] When installing the main engine on the ship's hull, epoxy resin needs to be poured. To facilitate installation and disassembly, and to ensure versatility and reusability, the epoxy resin should be used for proper settling. Figure 2 As shown, this utility model provides a main unit installation and sinking measurement device. The main unit installation and sinking measurement device includes a measuring connector 1, a positioning component 2, and a detection measuring component.

[0034] The six measuring connectors 1 are divided into two groups, spaced apart. Within each group, the measuring connectors 1 are evenly spaced along the extension direction of the main unit base 200. Each measuring connector 1 is detachably inserted into a positioning hole in the main unit base 200, with both ends extending outwards relative to the positioning hole. Multiple positioning elements 2 are correspondingly positioned to the measuring connectors 1. The positioning elements 2 are attached to the side of the main unit base 200 opposite to the hull base panel 100 and connected to the measuring connectors 1. The length of the measuring connectors 1 extending outwards relative to the main unit base 200 is adjustable, ensuring that the measuring connectors 1 are at a set distance from the hull base panel 100. A detection measuring element is used to measure the distance from the measuring connectors 1 to the hull base panel 100.

[0035] Before epoxy resin pouring, the distance from connector 1 to the hull base panel 100 is measured using a measuring device. After the epoxy resin has solidified, the distance is measured again using the measuring device. Because the length of connector 1 extending relative to the main engine base 200 is adjustable, it can meet the needs of measuring epoxy resin of different thicknesses poured between the main engine base 200 and the hull base panel 100. After use, it can be quickly disassembled for reuse, facilitating installation and disassembly while possessing a certain degree of versatility, meeting the need for repeated use.

[0036] In some embodiments, the measuring connector 1 is a measuring bolt, and the positioning hole is a threaded hole. The measuring bolt is screwed into the positioning hole and the positioning member 2. This arrangement allows the measuring bolt to be screwed into the positioning hole. By adjusting the length of the measuring bolt extending relative to the threaded hole and then locking the position using the positioning member 2, the measuring connector 1 can be positioned at a set distance from the hull base panel 100. This satisfies the need for measuring epoxy resin of different thicknesses poured between the main engine base 200 and the hull base panel 100. After use, the measuring connector 1 can be simply unscrewed from the positioning hole. In other embodiments, the positioning hole can be designed as a smooth hole, with a positioning member 2 screwed into each end of the measuring connector 1 extending relative to the positioning hole. By locking the position of the positioning member 2, the position of the measuring connector 1 can be locked. No further limitations are imposed here.

[0037] In some embodiments, a round head 11 is coaxially fixed to one end of the measuring connector 1 facing the hull base panel 100. By providing the round head 11, it is convenient to subsequently use a measuring element to extend into the gap between the round head 11 and the hull base panel 100 to measure the gap.

[0038] In some embodiments, the round head 11 and the measuring connector 1 are an integral structure. This arrangement facilitates the fixed connection between the round head 11 and the measuring connector 1, ensures the connection strength between them, and is easy to manufacture. In other embodiments, the round head 11 can also be connected to the measuring connector 1 by welding; this is not a limitation.

[0039] In some embodiments, a screwing part 12 is fixedly provided at the end of the measuring connector 1. Specifically, the screwing part 12 is coaxially arranged with the measuring connector 1. By providing the screwing part 12, it is convenient to rotate the measuring connector 1 with a tool, thereby effectively adjusting the length of the measuring connector 1 extending relative to the positioning hole. In other embodiments, a through hole can be opened on the measuring connector 1, and a screwing rod can be inserted into the through hole. The measuring connector 1 can be screwed by rotating the screwing rod.

[0040] In some embodiments, the screwing part 12 and the measuring connector 1 are an integral structure. This arrangement facilitates the fixed connection between the screwing part 12 and the measuring connector 1, ensures the connection strength between them, and is easy to manufacture. In other embodiments, the screwing part 12 can also be connected to the measuring connector 1 by welding; this is not a limitation.

[0041] In some embodiments, the cross-section of the screwing part 12 is a regular hexagon. This design allows personnel to easily rotate the screwing part 12 using a wrench or socket tool, thereby enabling the rotation of the measuring connector 1.

[0042] In some embodiments, a scale line is provided on the measuring connector 1 along the axial direction of the measuring connector 1. By providing the scale line, it is convenient for personnel to observe during the tightening of the measuring connector 1, thereby quickly determining the length of the measuring connector 1 extending relative to the mounting hole.

[0043] In some embodiments, the outer peripheral surface of the positioning member 2 is a regular hexagon. Specifically, in this embodiment, the positioning member 2 is a nut. With the above-mentioned arrangement, it is convenient to use a wrench or socket to tighten the positioning member 2, thereby locking the length of the measuring connector 1 extending relative to the mounting hole and preventing the measuring connector 1 from shifting during the measurement process.

[0044] In some embodiments, the measuring element is a feeler gauge. By using a feeler gauge, it is possible to insert it into the gap between the round head 11 and the hull base panel 100 to accurately measure the gap.

[0045] The usage process of this main unit with the sinking measurement device is as follows:

[0046] Before the epoxy resin is poured into the main unit, install the measuring connector 1 in the pre-drilled positioning hole in the main unit base 200. Adjust the height of the measuring connector 1 so that the gap between its bottom round head 11 and the hull base panel 100 is 1mm, which can be measured using a feeler gauge. After confirmation, tighten the positioning piece 2 on the measuring connector 1 to fix its position. When the epoxy resin pouring is complete and it is necessary to measure the epoxy resin settling, directly use a feeler gauge to measure the gap between the bottom round head 11 of the connector 1 and the hull base panel 100. Compare this gap with the pre-drilled 1mm; the difference is the epoxy resin settling amount of this main unit. After inspection, the positioning piece 2 can be loosened, and the measuring connector 1 can be removed for continued use during subsequent main unit installations.

[0047] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
