Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0025] Please see Figures 1 to 6 This utility model provides a technical solution:
[0026] Example 1
[0027] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the dual six-degree-of-freedom motion simulation platform provided in this embodiment of the present invention includes: two motion platforms arranged opposite each other.
[0028] Each motion platform includes a base 1 and an upper platform 2.
[0029] like Figure 4 As shown, the base 1 is triangular and constructed of welded steel. The base 1 and the upper platform 2 are connected by multiple electric cylinders 3. The upper platform 2 has a truss structure, and its upper surface is covered with patterned steel plates. Two electric cylinders 3 are located at each corner of the base 1; the two electric cylinders 3 are arranged in a triangular pattern. The electric cylinders 3 are linear electric cylinders, driven by servo motors, and the servo motors have mechanical brake devices. A dynamic brake can also be installed. The dynamic brake works in conjunction with the mechanical brake device of the servo motor to ensure the smooth and reliable operation of the motion simulation platform and to enable motor braking in the event of a system power failure.
[0030] The base 1 is connected to the electric cylinder 3 via a lower hinge 4; the upper platform 2 is connected to the electric cylinder 3 via an upper hinge 5.
[0031] Specifically, the lower hinge 4 is located at the three corners of the base 1, and the upper hinge 5 is installed at the bottom of the upper platform 2. The three upper hinges 5 are also distributed in a triangle, but they are staggered from the triangle distribution of the lower hinge 4.
[0032] The upper platform 2 is rectangular; three sides of the upper platform 2 are equipped with guardrails 7, and the other side is open as a docking surface. One motion platform has a plug-in end 9 on its docking surface; the other motion platform has a receiving end 10 on its docking surface. The plug-in end 9 and the receiving end 10 of the plug-in assembly cooperate with each other. The plug-in assembly facilitates docking between the two motion platforms. One motion platform has a hinge arm 11 on its docking surface; the other motion platform has a hinge seat 12 on its docking surface. When the two motion platforms need to dock, the hinge arm 11 can connect with the hinge seat 12 to ensure stable docking.
[0033] This utility model provides a dual six-degree-of-freedom motion simulation platform that drives different electric cylinders 3 to extend and retract to different degrees, enabling six-degree-of-freedom motion adjustment of the upper platform 2. It allows for lifting, tilting, and docking of the two motion platforms, with lifting effects as shown in the figure. Figure 5 As shown, it provides structural support for operations simulating marine wind and wave environments.
[0034] In addition, one or more of the following are installed on the upper platform 2: a winch 6, a bollard, and an anchor 8. The winch 6 is driven by a servo motor to simulate the operation of a marine winch. A movable ladder is installed on one side of the motion platform. Alternatively, the upper platform 2 can be equipped with the assembly equipment required for simulation practice according to actual operational needs.
[0035] Example 2
[0036] like Figure 6 As shown, the dual-floating dynamic operation simulator provided in this embodiment of the present invention includes a teaching control console 13, a power distribution cabinet 14, and a dual six-degree-of-freedom motion simulation platform;
[0037] The teaching control console 13 and the power distribution cabinet 14 are arranged on one side of the dual six-degree-of-freedom motion simulation platform; the teaching control console 13 and the dual six-degree-of-freedom motion simulation platform are electrically connected to the power distribution cabinet 14 respectively.
[0038] The teaching control console 13 controls the simulation practice process, while the power distribution cabinet 14 provides power and control for all electrical control equipment. The teaching control console 13 can be connected to the main control console via a local area network.
[0039] The dual-floating-body dynamic operation simulator is installed inside a container or shelter. The dual six-degree-of-freedom motion simulation platform is installed on a reinforced concrete foundation. Specifically, the base 1 is fixed to the reinforced concrete foundation using multiple M20 anchor bolts.
[0040] In summary, this dual six-degree-of-freedom motion simulation platform and dual-floating dynamic operation simulator allows workers to move to the top of the upper platform 2 via a mobile ladder. The connection between the two upper platforms 2 under normal conditions can be simulated using the plug-in end 9, the receiving end 10, the hinge arm 11, and the hinge seat 12. During the simulation, the workers below use the teaching console 13 to control the extension and retraction of multiple electric cylinders 3, thereby simulating the movement and floating of the ship on a normal sea surface. This provides the workers on the upper platform 2 with a better simulation experience and facilitates their prior familiarization with the work at sea.
[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
