Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shipbuilding auxiliary equipment technology, specifically to a tail shaft fixing device for launching ships. Background Technology
[0002] After the main structure of a ship is completed on the inclined slipway, it needs to be moved to the dock for outfitting. This movement (technically termed launching) involves the ship sliding or rolling into the water using its own weight on the inclined slipway. Because ships range in weight from hundreds to thousands of tons, they have significant inertia when in motion. During launching, the water flow causes the propeller to rotate, which can damage the shafting. Therefore, the stern shaft must be fixed and not rotate with the propeller during launching.
[0003] The current industry practice is to use a hand chain hoist to externally wind and fix the propeller blades, which is neither reliable nor safe, and also makes disassembly difficult. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a tail shaft fixing device for launching ships, thereby solving the technical problems of unstable tail shaft fixing and difficult disassembly during ship launching.

[0012] Furthermore, the connecting plate is crescent-shaped.
[0013] Furthermore, both the vertical support plate and the diagonal support plate are made of channel steel.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0023] This application provides a stern shaft fixing device for ship launching, which will be described in detail below. It should be noted that the order of description of the following embodiments is not intended to limit the preferred order of the embodiments of this application. Furthermore, in the following embodiments, the descriptions of each embodiment have their own emphasis; parts not described in detail in a certain embodiment can be referred to in the relevant descriptions of other embodiments.
[0024] To address the technical problems of insecure stern shaft fixing and difficult disassembly in existing technologies during ship launching, one embodiment of this application provides a stern shaft fixing device for ship launching. This is described in detail below.
[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a stern shaft fixing device for launching a ship includes...
[0026] A pair of connecting plates 2 are located on both sides of the flange plate 11 of the tail shaft 1, and the two connecting plates 2 are connected to the flange plate 11 by multiple bolts 5.
[0027] The upper end of the support plate mechanism is fixedly connected to two connecting plates 2, and the lower end is fixedly connected to the hull.
[0028] Specifically, as an optional implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the support plate mechanism includes
[0029] A pair of vertical support plates 3, the upper ends of the two vertical support plates 3 are respectively fixedly connected to two connecting plates 2, and the lower ends of the vertical support plates 3 are fixedly connected to the hull;
[0030] A pair of diagonal bracing plates 4, the upper ends of the two diagonal bracing plates 4 are fixedly connected to the two vertical bracing plates 3 respectively, and the lower ends of the two diagonal bracing plates 4 are fixedly connected to the hull respectively.
[0031] Specifically, as an optional implementation in this embodiment, the connecting plate 2 is crescent-shaped. One side of the crescent-shaped connecting plate 2 has an arc-shaped structure, and bolt holes are opened on one side of the arc-shaped structure. The bolts 5 pass through both connecting plates 2 and the flange plate 11 of the tail shaft 1, thereby fixing the two connecting plates 2 to the flange plate 11.
[0032] Specifically, in this embodiment, the connecting plate 2 and the flange plate 11 are fastened together by three bolts 5.
[0033] Specifically, as an optional implementation in this embodiment, both the vertical support plate 3 and the diagonal support plate 4 are made of channel steel.
[0034] Working principle of the stern shaft fixing device for ship launching:
[0035] Before launching the vessel, the stern shaft 1 is secured to ensure that it and the propeller do not rotate during launching, thus preventing the propeller from generating additional thrust and avoiding damage to the shafting system during the normal sliding launching process. Before launching, the stern shaft 1 is secured using a launching stern shaft fixing device. Specifically, two connecting plates 2 are first connected to both sides of the flange plate 11 with bolts 5. Then, vertical support plates 3 and diagonal support plates 4 are used. The upper end of the vertical support plate 3 is welded to the connecting plate 2, and the lower end is welded to the hull. The upper end of the diagonal support plate 4 is welded to the vertical support plate 3, and the lower end is welded to the hull. The two diagonal support plates 4 form a V-shaped support structure on the hull, achieving a secure positioning of the two stern shafts 1. During launching, even if the propeller is impacted by the water flow, the propeller and stern shaft 1 will not rotate, ensuring the reliability of the launching.
