Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of transport ship technology, and more specifically, relates to a floating installation vessel and a floating installation structure. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of marine engineering, the transportation of large floating components mainly relies on large-tonnage transport vessels. However, the use of large-tonnage transport vessels is costly, their sailing speed is relatively slow, and they are greatly affected by natural factors such as weather and sea conditions, directly leading to low engineering efficiency. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a transport and installation vessel suitable for large floating components. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this application is to provide a floating installation vessel and a floating installation structure to solve the technical problems of high transportation costs and reliance on existing technologies for large floating components.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this application is as follows:
[0005] A floating installation vessel is provided, comprising:
[0006] The first hull and the second hull are respectively located on both sides of the floating body component;
[0007] The floating body connection assembly includes a lifting device and a pin device. The fixed end of the lifting device is connected to the first hull or the second hull, and the pin device is connected to the movable end of the lifting device. The pin device is used to lock the connection with the docking hole of the floating body component.
[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution:
[0009] Optionally, the latch device includes a lock body, a latch, and a latch drive. The lock body is connected to the movable end of the lifting device and has a mating interface. The latch is located on one side of the mating interface and is slidably connected to the lock body. The latch drive is driven by the latch. Upon receiving a locking command, the latch drive pushes the latch into the mating hole on the lug of the float component, achieving a locking connection between the latch device and the float component. Upon receiving an unlocking command, the latch drive pulls the latch back from the mating hole, thereby unlocking and separating the latch device from the float component.
[0010] Optionally, there may be multiple lifting devices, each of which is spaced apart from the other on the first or second hull. By providing multiple lifting devices and pin devices, the first and second hulls are connected to the floating body components at multiple points, thereby enhancing the overall rigidity and stability of the connection structure.
[0011] Optionally, the floating installation vessel also includes a hull towing assembly, one end of which is disposed on the first hull or the second hull, and the other end of which is used to connect to an external base surface. The hull towing assembly is used to tow the first hull or the second hull.
[0012] Optionally, the hull traction assembly includes a winch and a winch rope. The winch is mounted on the first or second hull, one end of the winch rope is connected to the winch, and the other end of the winch rope is connected to an external base surface. When precise adjustment of the position of the first or second hull is required, one end of the winch rope is fixed to the external base surface, and the other end of the winch rope, under the winding action of the winch, pulls the first or second hull to the designated position.
[0013] Optionally, the floating installation vessel also includes multiple supports, each of which is respectively disposed on the first hull or the second hull. One end of each support is connected to the first hull or the second hull, and the other end of each support abuts against the floating body component.
[0014] A floating installation structure includes floating body components and the aforementioned floating installation vessel.
[0015] The beneficial effects of the floating installation vessel and floating installation structure provided in this application are as follows:
[0016] The floating installation vessel provided in this application includes a first hull, a second hull, and a floating body connection assembly. The first and second hulls are respectively located on both sides of the floating body component to improve its stability. The floating body connection assembly includes a lifting device and a locking pin device. The fixed end of the lifting device is connected to the first or second hull, and the locking pin device is connected to the movable end of the lifting device. Driven by the lifting device, the locking pin device moves up and down, thereby positioning it to dock with the floating body component. The floating body component has lugs with corresponding docking holes for the locking pin device. The locking pin device is locked to the docking holes of the floating body component, thus connecting the first and second hulls to the floating body component.
[0017] The floating installation vessel proposed in this application not only improves the floating stability of the floating components, but also facilitates the towing of the floating components for transportation without the need for a large-tonnage carrier.
[0018] The floating installation structure provided in this application includes floating body components and the aforementioned floating installation vessel. Since this floating installation structure incorporates the aforementioned floating installation vessel, it also possesses the advantages of the aforementioned floating installation vessel.

[0043] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0044] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this application provides a floating installation vessel, including a first hull 1, a second hull 2, and a floating body connection assembly 4.
[0045] Specifically, the first hull 1 and the second hull 2 are respectively located on both sides of the floating body component 3 to improve the stability of the floating body component 3.
[0046] The floating body connection assembly 4 includes a lifting device 41 and a pin device 42. The fixed end of the lifting device 41 is connected to the first hull 1 or the second hull 2, while the pin device 42 is connected to the movable end of the lifting device 41. Driven by the lifting device 41, the pin device 42 is moved up and down, thus positioning it to dock with the floating body component 3. The floating body component 3 has lugs with corresponding docking holes for the pin device 42. The pin device 42 is locked into the docking holes of the floating body component 3, thereby connecting the first hull 1 and the second hull 2 to the floating body component 3. The lifting device 41 can be a cluster cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, an electric push rod, etc.
[0047] The floating installation vessel of this application can not only improve the floating stability of the floating component 3, but also facilitate the towing of the floating component 3 for transportation without the need for a large-tonnage carrier.
[0048] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, in a specific embodiment of this application, the latch device 42 includes a lock body 421, a latch 422, and a latch drive member 423. The lock body 421 is connected to the movable end of the lifting device 41, which drives the lock body 421 to move up and down. The lock body 421 has a mating interface for engaging with a lug on the float member 3, the lug of which extends into the mating interface. The latch 422 is located on one side of the mating interface and is slidably connected to the lock body 421. The latch drive member 423 is drivenly connected to the latch 422. The latch drive member 423 can specifically be a hydraulic / pneumatic cylinder, an electric push rod, etc., and the latch 422 is connected to the movable end of the latch drive member 423. Upon receiving a locking command, the latch drive member 423 pushes the latch 422 into the mating hole on the lug of the float member 3, achieving a locking connection between the latch device 42 and the float member 3. Upon receiving the unlocking command, the pin drive 423 pulls the pin 422 back from the docking hole, thereby unlocking and separating the pin device 42 from the float component 3.
[0049] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown in a specific embodiment of this application, both the first hull 1 and the second hull 2 are provided with multiple lifting devices 41, which are arranged at intervals. Correspondingly, the number of pin devices 42 is also the same as that of the lifting devices 41. By providing multiple lifting devices 41 and pin devices 42, the first hull 1 and the second hull 2 are connected to the floating body component 3 at multiple points, thereby enhancing the overall rigidity and stability of the connection structure.
[0050] like Figure 4 As shown, in a specific embodiment of this application, the floating installation vessel also includes a hull traction assembly 5. One end of the hull traction assembly 5 is disposed on the first hull 1 or the second hull 2, and the other end of the hull traction assembly 5 is used to connect to an external base surface. The hull traction assembly 5 is used to traction the first hull 1 or the second hull 2 to move, so as to adjust the position of the first hull 1 or the second hull 2, thereby driving the floating body component 3 to move accurately to a predetermined position.
[0051] like Figure 4 As shown in a specific embodiment of this application, the hull traction assembly 5 includes a winch 51 and a winch rope 52. The winch 51 is mounted on the first hull 1 or the second hull 2, and one end of the winch rope 52 is connected to the winch 51, while the other end is connected to an external base surface. When precise adjustment of the position of the first hull 1 or the second hull 2 is required, one end of the winch rope 52 is fixed to the external base surface, and the other end of the winch rope 52, under the winding action of the winch 51, pulls the first hull 1 or the second hull 2 to the designated position.
[0052] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, in one specific embodiment of this application, the hull towing assembly 5 further includes multiple supports 7. Each support 7 is respectively disposed on the first hull 1 or the second hull 2, with one end of the support 7 connected to the first hull 1 or the second hull 2, and the other end of the support 7 abutting against the floating body component 3. Specifically, the support 7 is installed on the bottom surface or side edge of the first hull 1 and the second hull 2, and the other end of the support 7 extends downward, abutting against the top of the floating body component 3. The supports 7 serve to separate the floating body component 3 from the first hull 1 or the second hull 2, avoiding wear problems caused by direct contact.
[0053] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this application also provides a floating installation structure, including a floating body component 3 and the floating installation vessel in the above embodiments. Since this floating installation structure has the floating installation vessel in the above embodiments, it also possesses the advantages of the floating installation vessel in the above embodiments.
[0054] like Figures 5 to 7 As shown, in a specific embodiment of this application, the floating component 3 includes an upper structure 31 and a bottom structure 32. The upper structure 31 is a cylindrical structure with a closed bottom and an open top, and also includes a water inlet. The bottom structure 32 is a floating box structure with multiple compartments, each of which is bottomless. After the floating component 3 is submerged, water enters the bottom of the compartments to lower the overall center of gravity of the floating component 3, providing buoyancy stability. The bottom structure 32 also includes vent holes and pumping holes. The vent holes are used to expel air from the compartments during the sinking installation of the floating component 3, and the pumping holes are used to connect to a negative pressure device to create negative pressure in the compartments, allowing the floating component 3 to sink further with the help of negative pressure. When the floating component 3 sinks, the water inlet on the upper structure 31 is opened, allowing water to enter the cylinder and achieving the overall sinking of the floating component 3.
[0055] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
