Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of anchor chain cleaning equipment, specifically a marine anchor chain flushing device. Background Technology

[0002] Marine anchor chains play a crucial role in ship operations. However, since anchor chains are constantly exposed to seawater, they carry a large amount of pollutants such as silt and seaweed when anchoring.

[0003] Traditional manual washing methods require crew members to use high-pressure water guns to wash the pulled-up anchor chain section by section. This not only requires crew members to have certain operating skills, but also consumes a lot of physical strength and time, making it extremely inefficient. In addition, manual washing cannot ensure that every part of the anchor chain is thoroughly cleaned, and some pollutants may remain, accelerating the corrosion of the anchor chain, reducing its service life, and increasing the safety hazards of the ship. Utility Model Content

[0004] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a marine anchor chain washing device.

[0006] (II) Technical Solution

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a marine anchor chain washing device, comprising a hull side plate, a support frame, and a high-pressure water pump, wherein the support frame is fixed to the outside of the hull side plate, and a guide roller is provided at the top of the support frame, with both ends of the guide roller rotatably connected to the support frame;

[0008] The inner side of the support frame is provided with a first annular frame, which is located below the guide roller. The inner ring of the first annular frame is rotatably provided with an annular diverter pipe. Multiple nozzles are provided on the inner wall of the annular diverter pipe. The upper end of the annular diverter pipe is provided with a transfer pipe. A toothed ring is provided on the periphery of the top of the annular diverter pipe. A slot is provided on one side of the support frame. A motor is fixedly provided on the outer side of the support frame. The output end of the motor is provided with a gear that passes through the slot and meshes with the toothed ring.

[0009] A high-pressure water pump is fixedly installed on the inner side of the hull side plate, and the outlet of the high-pressure water pump is connected to the transfer pipe through a water pipe.

[0010] To facilitate the assembly of the support frame on the outer wall of the hull side plate, the present invention includes an improvement in that the top of the support frame is provided with a positioning plate, which is fixed to the outer wall of the hull side plate by screws.

[0011] To improve the stability of the anchor chain during the cleaning process, the present invention includes the following improvement: a second ring frame is provided above and below the first ring frame symmetrically on the inner side of the support frame, and an anti-collision ring is fixedly provided on the inner ring of the second ring frame.

[0012] Furthermore, the improvement of this utility model is that both the first ring frame and the second ring frame are made of aluminum alloy.

[0013] To facilitate the assembly of the first and second ring frames, the present invention is improved by fixing both sides of the first and second ring frames to the inner wall of the support frame with screws.

[0014] During the retrieval process, the anchor chain is guided by the guide roller. During this process, the anchor chain will pass through the annular diverter pipe and the anti-collision ring. The second annular frame and the anti-collision ring ensure that the anchor chain will not be damaged by shaking during the retrieval process.

[0015] When it is necessary to rinse the anchor chain, start the high-pressure water pump. The inlet of the high-pressure water pump can be connected to the water storage equipment in the hull. The rinsing fluid in the water storage equipment will be sprayed out at high pressure through multiple annular diversion pipes, which can rinse the anchor chain under high pressure. During this process, start the motor to make the gears reciprocate forward and reverse, with a rotation angle of less than 30 degrees to avoid water pipe entanglement. As the anchor chain is retrieved, the anchor chain can be rinsed more thoroughly.

[0016] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0017] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a marine anchor chain washing device, which has the following features:

[0018] Beneficial effects:

[0019] This shipboard anchor chain washing device enables automatic cleaning during the anchor chain recovery process, eliminating the need for manual operation with hand tools, significantly saving labor costs, and avoiding the physical exertion and skill requirements of manual washing, making anchor chain cleaning more convenient and efficient.

[0020] Multiple nozzles on the inner wall of the annular diverter, working in conjunction with reciprocating rotation, can perform high-pressure flushing of the anchor chain from multiple angles, ensuring that every part of the anchor chain surface is thoroughly cleaned, effectively reducing pollutant residue, slowing down the corrosion rate of the anchor chain, extending its service life, and reducing ship safety hazards.

[0026] 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.

[0027] Please see Figures 1-4 The present invention provides a marine anchor chain washing device, comprising a hull side plate 1, a support frame 2, and a high-pressure water pump 13. The support frame 2 is fixed on the outside of the hull side plate 1, and a guide roller 3 is provided on the top of the support frame 2. The two ends of the guide roller 3 are rotatably connected to the support frame 2.

[0028] The inner side of the support frame 2 is provided with a first annular frame 6, which is located below the guide roller 3. The inner ring of the first annular frame 6 is rotatably provided with an annular diverter pipe 7. Multiple nozzles 8 are provided on the inner wall of the annular diverter pipe 7. The upper end of the annular diverter pipe 7 is provided with a transfer pipe 12. The circumference of the top of the annular diverter pipe 7 is provided with a toothed ring 9. A slot 5 is provided on one side of the support frame 2. A motor 10 is fixedly provided on the outer side of the support frame 2. The output end of the motor 10 is provided with a gear 11 that passes through the slot 5 and meshes with the toothed ring 9.

[0029] A high-pressure water pump 13 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the hull side plate 1, and the outlet of the high-pressure water pump 13 is connected to the transfer pipe 12 through a water pipe 14.

[0030] Both the first ring frame 6 and the second ring frame 15 are made of aluminum alloy.

[0031] The top of the support frame 2 is provided with a positioning plate 4, which is fixed to the outer wall of the hull side plate 1 by screws.

[0032] Both sides of the first ring frame 6 and both sides of the second ring frame 15 are fixed to the inner wall of the support frame 2 by screws.

[0033] When using this marine anchor chain washing device, it is necessary to ensure that the device is installed securely. The support frame 2 is fixed to the outer wall of the hull side plate 1 by the positioning plate 4 at the top and screws. The first ring frame 6 and the second ring frame 15, which are arranged symmetrically above and below, are both fixed to the inner side of the support frame 2 by screws. The anchor chain recovery path must pass through the annular diversion pipe 7 and the anti-collision ring 16 of the inner ring of the second ring frame 15. The guide roller 3 guides the anchor chain to ensure the smoothness of anchor chain recovery.

[0034] When the ship weighs anchor and the anchor chain begins to be retrieved, the device is activated. The inlet of the high-pressure water pump 13 is connected to the water storage equipment inside the ship through a dedicated water pipe 14. After the high-pressure water pump 13 starts working, it pressurizes the flushing fluid and delivers it through the water pipe 14 to the transfer pipe 12 of the annular diversion pipe 7. Finally, it is sprayed out at high pressure by multiple nozzles 8 on the inner wall of the annular diversion pipe 7 to flush the anchor chain.

[0035] Simultaneously, the motor 10 on the outside of the support frame 2 is started. The gear 11 at the output end of the motor 10 meshes with the gear ring 9 at the top of the annular diverter pipe 7, driving the annular diverter pipe 7 to perform reciprocating forward and reverse rotation (the rotation angle is controlled within 30 degrees to avoid entanglement of the water pipe 14). As the anchor chain continues to be retrieved, the high-pressure water flow, under the reciprocating rotation of the annular diverter pipe 7, completely covers the surface of the anchor chain, thoroughly cleaning the attached mud, seaweed and other pollutants.

[0036] The support frame 2 has a second ring frame 15 arranged symmetrically on the inner side of the first ring frame 6, and an anti-collision ring 16 is fixedly arranged on the inner ring of the second ring frame 15.

[0037] During the rinsing process, the anti-collision rings 016 on the inner rings of the upper and lower second ring frames 15 limit the swaying amplitude of the anchor chain, preventing the anchor chain from colliding with the nozzle 8 due to swinging, thus ensuring the stable progress of the rinsing operation. After the anchor chain is retrieved, the high-pressure water pump 13 and the motor 10 are turned off, and the device stops working.

[0038] The second ring frame 15 and the anti-collision ring 16, which are symmetrically arranged at the top and bottom, can effectively limit the swaying of the anchor chain during the retraction, prevent the anchor chain from colliding and damaging the nozzle 8, ensure the stable operation of the device, and reduce equipment maintenance costs.

[0039] The first ring frame 6 and the second ring frame 15, made of aluminum alloy, are not only lightweight but also have good corrosion resistance, making them suitable for marine environments on ships and improving the durability and adaptability of the device.

[0040] The device has a compact overall structure and is easy to install and disassemble by fixing with screws. It is also easy to maintain and can be well adapted to the anchor chain recovery system of different types of ships, making it highly practical.

[0041] For motor 10, it is recommended to use a small servo motor, such as the Panasonic MINAS A6 series MSMD022G1U model.

[0042] The nozzle 8 can be a high-pressure fan nozzle, such as the 1 / 4JCO series from Spraying Systems.

[0043] For high-pressure water pump 13, a small high-pressure plunger pump is recommended.
