Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of shipbuilding technology, specifically relating to a device for the stealthy installation of equipment on the open deck of a ship. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of modern detection technology, the sensitivity and detection range of detection equipment have been significantly improved. Therefore, the importance of reducing the radar cross-section (RCS) of ships has been elevated to an unprecedented level. Methods for reducing RCS mainly include shape technology, coatings, and materials technology. Shape technology primarily involves designing the ship's superstructure, deck protrusions, and open deck equipment to avoid making them protrude as reflectors. For example, superstructure bulkheads typically have a certain inward slope angle. At the same time, unnecessary protrusions and equipment on open decks should be avoided as much as possible.

[0003] Currently, the shipbuilding industry is vigorously promoting stealth optimization design for open deck equipment. Besides improvements in the equipment's coating and shape, to save on the high costs of stealth design and development, necessary equipment installed on open decks, such as signal alarm systems, fire-fighting equipment, power or charging sockets for mobile facilities like fire trucks, and speakers, is being concealed using methods like bulkhead embedding and stealth shielding to reduce protrusions on the deck. Embedded installation typically employs a bulkhead embedded box structure. Therefore, minimizing the impact of embedded installation on the ship's structural strength, reducing manufacturing and installation workload, and extending equipment lifespan have become pressing issues for the industry.

The angle between the inner end face of the support steel pipe and the vertical plane of the side wall of the support steel pipe is 14°. A hatch opening is provided at the upper end of the base plate.

[0007] Furthermore, the cover plate is circular in shape and covers the outer end face of the supporting steel pipe. One end of the cover plate is connected to the superstructure bulkhead of the open deck via a hinge, and a handle is provided on the outer end face of the other end of the cover plate.

[0008] Furthermore, a fixed bracket is provided in the middle of the base plate, and the bottom of the fixed bracket is welded and fixed vertically to the base plate. Ship equipment is installed on the fixed bracket.

[0011] 1. This utility model discloses a device for the stealthy installation of equipment on open decks of ships. By setting the supporting steel pipe at an angle, the inside of the steel pipe is smooth and natural with no weld seams. This facilitates the drainage of water from waves, rainwater, and condensation on the open deck and makes it less prone to corrosion. It reduces the impact of sea waves and rainwater and salt spray on the equipment or accessories on the open deck, thereby increasing the service life of the equipment and reducing the cost of use and maintenance.

The device includes a support module, a cover plate 2, and a base plate 5. The support module is installed on the superstructure bulkhead 9 of the open deck. A cover plate 2 is located at one outer end of the support module, and a base plate 5 is located at one inner end. Ship equipment 8 is installed on the base plate 5. The support module includes a support steel pipe 1, which is inclined towards the ship's deck. The angle between the side wall of the support steel pipe 1 and the horizontal plane is 9°. The angle between the outer end face of the support steel pipe 1 and the vertical plane of its side wall is 21°, and the angle between the inner end face of the support steel pipe 1 and the vertical plane of its side wall is 14°. A hatch opening is provided at the upper end of the base plate 5.

[0016] The cover plate 2 is circular in shape and covers the outer end face of the supporting steel pipe 1. One end of the cover plate 2 is connected to the superstructure bulkhead 9 of the open deck via a hinge 4, and a handle 3 is provided on the outer end face of the other end of the cover plate 2.
