Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rubber fender technology, specifically to a super arched rubber fender. Background Technology
[0002] Rubber fenders, also known as rubber guards, are installed on docks or ships to absorb collision energy between ships and docks or between ships when berthing or mooring, protecting ships and docks from damage. Generally, rubber fenders can be divided into two main categories based on their structure: solid rubber fenders (non-floating type) and floating rubber fenders. Solid rubber fenders (non-floating type) are the earliest and most widely used anti-collision devices for docks and ships. Based on the stress conditions they experience, they can be further classified as shear type, rotation type, and compression type, etc. Based on their structure, solid rubber fenders can also be classified as D-type, conical, drum-shaped, fan-shaped, rectangular, cylindrical, etc.
[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN 217294866U proposes a U-shaped rubber fender. The wear-resistant rubber layer of this patent is most easily damaged during ship collisions and friction. It can be replaced by removing bolts, thereby extending the overall service life of the rubber fender. When a collision occurs, the wear-resistant rubber layer and the buffer body deform, and the internal polystyrene foam tube is squeezed and deformed. During the deformation process, the collision potential energy is absorbed, reducing the damage from the collision. However, in this solution, since the super-arched rubber fender is installed on the shore, when the ship approaches the shore at a large tangential speed, the part of the rubber fender in contact with the hull is forced to move forward with the ship due to excessive friction, causing the fender to be sheared and damaged, which will increase the wear rate of the super-arched rubber fender.

This reduces the dry friction generated when the super-arched rubber fender body contacts the ship. Through the contact between the hull and the friction block, the drag can be increased to assist the ship in braking. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Example 1
[0025] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5A super-arched rubber fender includes a super-arched rubber fender body 1. Mounting plates 2 are fixedly installed on both sides of the super-arched rubber fender body 1. A plurality of support columns 3 are fixedly installed on one side of each mounting plate 2, and a mounting bracket 4 is fixedly installed on one side of each support column 3. A wetting component is provided on the top surface of the super-arched rubber fender body 1 for wetting the super-arched rubber fender body 1. The wetting component includes two mounting holes 5, which are respectively opened on the top and bottom surfaces of the super-arched rubber fender body 1. Two mounting holes 5 have water inlet pipes 6 fixedly sleeved on their inner circular walls, and horn inlets 7 fixedly sleeved on their outer circular walls. A water storage box 8 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the super arched rubber fender body 1. A water inlet hole 9 is opened on the bottom surface of the water storage box 8, and the water inlet hole 9 is fixedly sleeved with the water inlet pipe 6. Several water outlet holes 10 are opened on one side of the water storage box 8. A positioning groove 18 is opened on one side of the mounting bracket 4. A friction block 11 is movably sleeved inside the positioning groove 18. A clamp for restricting the friction block 11 is provided on one side of the positioning groove 18. The component, through the set horn port 7, firstly installs the super arched rubber fender body 1 on the edge of the dock or shipyard. Then, when the ship approaches the shore, the ship has a large inertia during navigation. When it approaches the shore and decelerates, this inertia will cause the water to be pushed towards the shore, forming waves. At this time, the water rushing towards the shore will enter the interior of the water storage box 8 through the horn port 7 and the water inlet pipe 6 through the impact force. Subsequently, the water inside the water storage box 8 will flow out evenly through multiple water outlets 10 and will flow from top to bottom through the inclined surface of the super arched rubber fender body 1, thereby wetting the entire surface of the super arched rubber fender body 1. By increasing the humidity of the super arched rubber fender body 1, the dry friction generated when the super arched rubber fender body 1 contacts the ship can be reduced, preventing the long-term friction between the working surface of the super arched rubber fender body 1 and the ship's side plate from causing the super arched rubber fender body 1 to wear faster. Therefore, when the ship is traveling at a high speed near the shore, the contact between the hull and the friction block 11 can increase the resistance to assist the ship in braking.
[0026] Example 2: Based on Example 1 above, with reference to Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7The clamping assembly includes a movable hole 12, which is located inside one side of the positioning groove 18. A guide post 13 is fixedly installed inside the movable hole 12, and a spring 14 is movably sleeved on the outer circular wall of the guide post 13. Two clamping brackets 15 are arranged inside the positioning groove 18. A connecting block 16 is fixedly installed on one side of the clamping bracket 15, and a guide hole 17 is opened on one side of the connecting block 16. The connecting block 16 is movably sleeved with the movable hole 12, and the guide hole 17 is movably sleeved with the guide post 13. The two ends of the spring 14 are respectively connected to one end of the two connecting blocks 16. The device is side-fixed. A spring 14 moves the clamping bracket 15, causing the connecting block 16 to move. This causes the two clamping brackets 15 to move in opposite directions, thus moving the two connecting blocks 16 away from each other and stretching the spring 14, thereby increasing the distance between the two clamping brackets 15. Then, by placing the friction block 11 into the positioning groove 18, the spring 14 causes the connecting block 16 and the clamping bracket 15 to rebound. The two clamping brackets 15 then come closer together and contact the friction block 11, facilitating the movement of the friction block 11. 1. Clamping is performed to confine the friction block 11 inside the positioning groove 18. A stabilizing column 19 is fixedly installed on one side of the inner side of the mounting frame 4. A pressing block 20 is provided on the outer circular wall of the stabilizing column 19. An operating column 21 is fixedly installed on one side of the pressing block 20. Rotating holes 22 are respectively opened on one side of the operating column 21 and the pressing block 20. The two rotating holes 22 are movably sleeved with the stabilizing column 19. A sliding hole 23 is opened on the top surface of the mounting frame 4. The operating column 21 is movably sleeved with the sliding hole 23. Through the set operating column 21, by pushing the operating column 21, the friction block 11 is moved... The moving extrusion block 20 can cause the extrusion block 20 and the operating column 21 to rotate around the stabilizing column 19. The distal end of the extrusion block 20 will then contact the connecting block 16 and extrude it. Under the extrusion of the extrusion block 20, the two connecting blocks 16 will separate and move away, stretching the spring 14. At the same time, the movement of the connecting block 16 will drive the clamping frame 15 to move, causing the two clamping frames 15 to move away from each other. This makes it easier to release the clamping frame 15 from the friction block 11, so that the operator can move the friction block 11 out of the positioning groove 18 to replace the friction block 11.
[0027] Example 3: Based on Example 1 or 2 above, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8The top surface of the mounting bracket 4 has several threaded grooves 24, and a fastening plate 25 is provided on the top surface of the mounting bracket 4. The top surface of the fastening plate 25 has several fastening holes 27, and a threaded post 26 is movably sleeved on the inner circular wall of the fastening hole 27. The threaded post 26 is threadedly connected to the threaded groove 24. A pressure plate 28 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the fastening plate 25. Through the pressure plate 28, after the friction block 11 is clamped inside the positioning groove 18, the fastening plate 25 is placed on the top surface of the friction block 11. At this time, the pressure plate 28 will contact the top surface of the friction block 11. Then, by passing the threaded post 26 through the fastening hole 27 into the threaded groove 24 and tightening it, the fastening plate 25 is fastened to press and restrict the friction block 11. The wall surface is threaded, and a fixing ring 29 is threadedly connected to the inner circular wall surface of the horn port 7. The outer circular wall surface of the fixing ring 29 is threaded, and a blocking net 30 is fixedly sleeved on the inner circular wall surface of the fixing ring 29. A support frame 31 is fixedly installed on the outer circular wall surface of the water pipe 6. A rotating column 32 is fixedly installed on one side of the support frame 31. A rotating ring 33 is movably sleeved on the outer circular wall surface of the rotating column 32. Several rotating columns 34 are fixedly installed on the outer circular wall surface of the rotating ring 33. When water impacts the bank, the rotating column 34 and the rotating ring 33 will rotate. As the rotating column 34 rotates, it will pass over the surface of the blocking net 30, thus facilitating the removal of debris blocked on the surface of the blocking net 30 and preventing the accumulation of aquatic plants and other debris that could cause blockage of the blocking net 30.
[0028] Working principle: Please refer to Figures 1-8 As shown, by installing the super-arched rubber fender 1 at the edge of the dock or shipyard through the horn port 7, the ship has a large inertia during navigation. When it approaches the shore and slows down, this inertia will push the water towards the shore, forming waves. The water rushing towards the shore will enter the water storage box 8 through the horn port 7 and the water inlet pipe 6. Then, the water entering the water storage box 8 will flow out evenly through multiple water outlets 10 and flow from top to bottom through the inclined surface of the super-arched rubber fender 1, thus wetting the entire surface of the super-arched rubber fender 1. By increasing the humidity of the super-arched rubber fender 1, the dry friction generated when the super-arched rubber fender 1 contacts the ship can be reduced, preventing the long-term friction between the working surface of the super-arched rubber fender 1 and the ship's side plate from accelerating the wear rate of the super-arched rubber fender 1. Therefore, when the ship is traveling at a high speed near the shore, the contact between the hull and the friction block 11 can increase the resistance to assist the ship in braking.
[0029] By using the spring 14, the moving clamp 15 drives the connecting block 16 to move, causing the two clamps 15 to move in opposite directions. This causes the two connecting blocks 16 to move away from each other and stretches the spring 14, thereby increasing the distance between the two clamps 15. Then, by placing the friction block 11 into the positioning groove 18, the spring 14 causes the connecting block 16 and the clamp 15 to rebound. The two clamps 15 move closer to each other and contact the friction block 11, thus facilitating the clamping of the friction block 11 and confining it inside the positioning groove 18.
[0030] By pushing the operating column 21, the squeezing block 20 can be driven to rotate around the stabilizing column 19. The far end of the squeezing block 20 will then contact the connecting block 16 and squeeze and push it. Under the squeezing of the squeezing block 20, the two connecting blocks 16 will separate and move away, stretching the spring 14. At the same time, the movement of the connecting block 16 will drive the clamping frame 15 to move away from each other, thereby facilitating the release of the clamping frame 15 from the friction block 11, so that the operator can move the friction block 11 out of the positioning groove 18 for replacement.
[0031] The rotating column 34, when water hits the shore, will cause the rotating column 34 and the rotating ring 33 to rotate. As the rotating column 34 rotates, it will pass over the surface of the barrier net 30, which will facilitate the removal of garbage blocked on the surface of the barrier net 30 and prevent the accumulation of aquatic plants and other garbage that could cause the barrier net 30 to become clogged.
[0032] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
