Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ship anchor chain maintenance technology, specifically an automatic cleaning and lubrication mechanism for ship anchor chains. Background Technology

[0002] Ship anchor chains are core equipment for ensuring safe berthing and resisting external forces such as wind, waves, and currents. Their importance is mainly reflected in the following aspects: First, anchor chains are directly related to the ship's anchoring stability. By transferring the anchor holding force to the hull, they prevent the ship from drifting. Especially in severe sea conditions, a reliable anchor chain system is the last line of defense against grounding and collision accidents. Second, anchor chains need to withstand huge dynamic loads, such as the impact of waves, tidal changes, and the instantaneous tension generated by the ship's rolling. Their strength and durability directly affect navigation safety. In addition, anchor chains are exposed to corrosive environments such as seawater and silt for a long time. If not properly maintained, they can easily lead to wear, corrosion, or even breakage of the chain links, causing serious accidents. Therefore, regular inspection, lubrication, and replacement are essential.

[0003] For example, the patent with authorization announcement number CN220321010U discloses an anchor chain retraction and lubrication device. By setting lubricating oil tanks on both sides of the top of the assembly plate, lubricating oil can be stored and placed. At the same time, the lubricating oil in the lubricating oil tanks can drip into the cleaning brush through the guide pipe. In the anchor chain retraction and lubrication operation, the anchor chain passing through the guide cylinder can be evenly lubricated by the cleaning brush. However, there are still areas for improvement.

[0004] Firstly, lubricating oil will separate into layers after being left for a long time. If it is not stirred before use, it will affect the lubrication effect of the anchor chain.

[0005] Secondly, cleaning and lubrication are carried out simultaneously. The anchor chain, lifted from the water, has residual mud and water on its surface. The mud mixes with the lubricating oil to form an abrasive mixture, which aggravates the wear between the chain links and sprockets. The water, covered by the lubricating oil, forms a closed corrosive environment in the gaps between the chain links, accelerating the electrochemical corrosion of the metal.

[0006] Therefore, an automatic cleaning and lubrication mechanism for ship anchor chains is provided to address the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0007] This invention provides an automatic cleaning and lubrication mechanism for ship anchor chains to solve the problems of incorrect anchor chain cleaning sequence and lubricating oil being applied to the outside of the anchor chain without stirring.

[0010] The hot air nozzle, installed below the application brush, is used for drying the anchor chain and is connected to the hot air blower body via a hose.

[0011] High-pressure nozzles, installed below hot air nozzles, are used to flush anchor chains and are connected to water pumps via water pipes.

[0012] The stirring rod is rotatably installed inside the oil reservoir, and the stirred lubricating oil enters the oil pipe.

[0013] Preferably, a drive motor is fixedly installed on the outside of the processing channel, the stirring rod is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the drive motor, and the oil storage tank is fixedly installed on the outside of the processing channel.

[0014] Preferably, an electric valve is fixedly installed on the outside of the oil storage tank, and the electric valve is fixedly connected to the oil pipe.

[0015] Preferably, a rotating shaft is fixedly installed on the top of the applicator brush, and the rotating shaft is rotatably installed inside the processing channel. A synchronous belt is installed on the outside of the rotating shaft and the output shaft of the drive motor through a synchronous pulley.

[0016] Preferably, a drying rack is fixedly installed inside the processing channel, hot air nozzles are uniformly fixedly installed inside the drying rack, and the hot air blower body is fixedly installed outside the processing channel.

[0017] Preferably, a rinsing frame is fixedly installed inside the processing channel, high-pressure nozzles are evenly fixedly installed inside the rinsing frame, and a water pump is fixedly installed outside the processing channel.

[0018] Based on common knowledge in the field, the above-mentioned preferred conditions can be combined arbitrarily to obtain various preferred embodiments of this utility model.

[0019] The positive and progressive effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0020] When the anchor chain is reeled in, the water pump sprays high-pressure water from the high-pressure nozzle onto the anchor chain to remove mud, sand, salt, and other contaminants from the outside of the anchor chain. The hot air blower sprays hot air from the hot air nozzle onto the cleaned anchor chain to remove moisture from its outside. Lubricating oil flows from the oil pipe to the brush and is then applied to the anchor chain. The anchor chain is first cleaned, then dried, and finally lubricated. The lubricating oil is stirred before application to improve its application effect. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The present invention will be further described below by way of embodiments, but the present invention is not limited to the scope of the embodiments.

[0028] First embodiment:

[0029] like Figure 1-4 As shown, an automatic cleaning and lubrication mechanism for ship anchor chains includes a winding mechanism body 1 for winding up the anchor chain. A processing channel 2 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the winding mechanism body 1. Multiple application brushes 8 for applying lubricating oil are installed inside the processing channel 2. An oil pipe 9 for conveying lubricating oil is installed above the application brushes 8.

[0030] High-pressure nozzle 14 is installed below hot air nozzle 12 and is used to flush the anchor chain, removing mud, sand, salt and other substances from the outside of the anchor chain. It is connected to water pump 16 through a water pipe.

[0031] Specifically, a rinsing rack 13 is fixedly installed inside the processing channel 2, high-pressure nozzles 14 are evenly fixedly installed inside the rinsing rack 13, and a water pump 16 is fixedly installed outside the processing channel 2.

[0032] In this embodiment, when the anchor chain is wound up, the winding mechanism body 1 drives the anchor chain to move upward through the flushing frame 13, and the water pump 16 sprays high-pressure water from the high-pressure nozzle 14 onto the anchor chain to remove mud, sand, salt and other substances from the outside of the anchor chain.

[0033] Second embodiment:

[0034] The difference from the above embodiments is that it also includes:

[0035] The hot air nozzle 12 is installed below the coating brush 8 and is used for drying the anchor chain. It is connected to the hot air blower body 15 through a hose.

[0036] Specifically, a drying rack 11 is fixedly installed inside the processing channel 2, hot air nozzles 12 are evenly fixedly installed inside the drying rack 11, and the hot air blower body 15 is fixedly installed outside the processing channel 2.

[0037] In this embodiment, the anchor chain continues to move upward past the drying rack 11, and the hot air blower body 15 sprays hot air through the hot air nozzle 12 onto the cleaned anchor chain to remove the moisture on its outside.

[0038] Third embodiment:

[0039] The difference from the above embodiments is that it also includes:

[0040] The stirring rod 4 is rotatably installed inside the oil storage tank 5 to stir the lubricating oil and prevent stratification. The stirred lubricating oil enters the oil pipe 9.

[0041] Specifically, a drive motor 3 is fixedly installed on the outside of the processing channel 2, the stirring rod 4 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 3, and the oil storage tank 5 is fixedly installed on the outside of the processing channel 2.

[0042] In this embodiment, the drive motor 3 is started, which drives the stirring rod 4 to stir the lubricating oil inside the oil storage tank 5 to prevent the lubricating effect of the anchor chain from being affected by the separation of the lubricating oil.

[0043] Specifically, an electric valve 10 is fixedly installed on the outside of the oil tank 5. The electric valve 10 is fixedly connected to the oil pipe 9, which facilitates remote control of the opening and closing of the oil pipe 9.

[0044] Specifically, a rotating shaft 7 is fixedly installed on the top of the application brush 8. The rotating shaft 7 is rotatably installed inside the processing channel 2. A synchronous belt 6 is installed on the outside of the rotating shaft 7 and the output shaft of the drive motor 3 through a synchronous pulley.

[0045] In this embodiment, the anchor chain continues to move upward past the coating brush 8, the electric valve 10 is opened, and the lubricating oil flows from the oil pipe 9 to the coating brush 8 and is then applied to the anchor chain. The anchor chain is first cleaned, then dried, and finally lubricated. Moreover, the lubricating oil is stirred before application to improve the application effect.

[0046] After the anchor chain is wound up, it is stored inside the winding mechanism body 1 in a closed storage, so it is less susceptible to external contamination. When the anchor chain is released, the winding mechanism body 1 moves the anchor chain down, and the coating brush 8 applies a coating to the anchor chain. The hot air blower body 15 and the water pump 16 do not need to work.

[0047] Figure 2 The components such as the oil storage tank 5 and the application brush 8 are used for applying lubricating oil to the anchor chain. The number of sets can be set by the staff according to actual needs. Figure 2 The example shown is just one group of numbers.
