Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of mooring chain accessories used for temporary connections during the installation of mooring chains on offshore oil platforms and wind power platforms, and in particular to a high-strength single-lock mooring chain installation ring. Background Technology

[0002] Mooring rings used on offshore oil platforms and wind power platforms must possess high strength and toughness. After heat treatment, the shape and internal quality of the mooring rings should meet the relevant requirements of the classification society, according to manufacturing requirements. During the installation of mooring chains on offshore oil platforms and wind power platforms, a temporary connector is often used to connect the installation chain or traction chain to the permanent mooring chain, and then remove it after connection. Typically, such connectors require devices such as sprockets or chain guide holes. Existing connectors have complex structures and are inconvenient to install and remove. To meet these requirements, those skilled in the art provide a high-strength, single-lock mooring chain installation ring product. The single-lock design ensures a more convenient installation process. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to solve the above-mentioned technical problems and provide a high-strength single-lock mooring chain mounting ring.

[0004] To achieve the above technical objectives and meet the above technical requirements, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a high-strength single-lock mooring chain mounting ring, including a mounting ring body and a T-shaped lock. The upper two sides of the T-shaped lock are engaged with the mounting ring body, and the lower end of the T-shaped lock is connected to the mounting ring body by bolts. The T-shaped lock is integrally forged and includes a transverse part and a longitudinal part, and the transverse part and the longitudinal part are smoothly transitioned by an arc-shaped part.

[0005] Preferably, the mounting ring body has an open section in the middle of the straight arm portion, and the mounting ring body has symmetrically arranged buckle protrusions at both ends, and the T-shaped buckle has symmetrically arranged slots at both ends corresponding to the buckle protrusions.

[0006] Preferably, the buckle boss includes a U-shaped flange and a U-shaped groove located on one side of the U-shaped flange. The buckle groove includes an engaging portion and a recessed portion. The engaging portion corresponds to the U-shaped groove, and the recessed portion corresponds to the U-shaped flange.

[0007] Preferably, the lower end of the longitudinal section of the T-shaped latch is provided with an arc-shaped groove corresponding to the inner side of the mounting ring body.

[0008] Preferably, the T-shaped latch has a threaded hole in the middle of its horizontal section.

[0009] Compared with traditional structures, the advantages of this utility model are: simple structure, quick connection, convenient operation, and high connection strength by directly attaching the forged one-piece buckle to the mounting ring body and locking it with hexagonal bolts.

[0015] The present invention will be further described below.

[0016] See attached document Figure 1-4 A high-strength single-lock mooring chain mounting ring includes a mounting ring body 1 and a T-shaped lock 2. The upper two sides of the T-shaped lock 2 are engaged with the mounting ring body 1, and the lower end of the T-shaped lock 2 is connected to the mounting ring body 1 by bolts 3. The T-shaped lock 2 is integrally forged and includes a transverse part 21 and a longitudinal part 22. The transverse part 21 and the longitudinal part 22 are smoothly transitioned by an arc-shaped part 23.

[0017] In this preferred embodiment, the mounting ring body 1 has an opening section in the middle of the straight arm portion, and the mounting ring body 1 has symmetrically arranged buckle protrusions 11 at both ends. The T-shaped latch 2 has symmetrically arranged slots 24 at both ends of the lateral direction corresponding to the buckle protrusions 11.

[0018] In this preferred embodiment, the snap-fit ​​boss 11 includes a U-shaped flange and a U-shaped groove located on one side of the U-shaped flange. The snap-fit ​​groove 24 includes an engaging portion and a recessed portion. The engaging portion corresponds to the U-shaped groove, and the recessed portion corresponds to the U-shaped flange.

[0019] In this preferred embodiment, the lower end of the longitudinal portion of the T-shaped latch 2 is provided with an arc-shaped groove corresponding to the inner side of the mounting ring body 1.

[0020] In this preferred embodiment, a threaded hole 25 is provided in the middle of the horizontal part of the T-shaped latch 2.

[0021] In practical implementation, this utility model mainly consists of an mounting ring body 1, a T-shaped latch 2, and an internal hex bolt 3. A quick connection is achieved by directly attaching the forged one-piece latch to the mounting ring body and locking it in place with the internal hex bolt. Disassembly is as follows: unscrew the internal hex bolt 3 counterclockwise, remove the T-shaped latch 2 from the mounting ring body 1, and detach the mounting ring body 1 from the chain links on both sides. Installation is performed by reversing the disassembly process. The single-latch design ensures a more convenient installation process for the mounting ring.
