Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a support fender structure for mooring pontoons, belonging to the field of offshore floating platform technology. Background Technology

[0002] Mooring pontoons form floating platforms at sea, which can be used for maritime cargo transportation, offshore operations, and other purposes. For larger mooring pontoons, multiple prefabricated pontoon units need to be assembled together, see Chinese Patent Publication No. CN208802126U.

[0003] When berthing pontoons are moored to the dock, buffers need to be installed to prevent hard collisions between the pontoons and the dock. Existing technology (see Chinese Patent Publication No. CN119975707A) uses elastic marine buoys to provide elastic buffers to avoid collisions. However, when the sides of the berthing pontoons are made of thin outer web plates, this can easily lead to localized indentation and deformation of the outer web plates due to stress. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a support fender structure for mooring pontoons.

[0005] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution.

[0006] This utility model provides a support fender structure for mooring pontoons, comprising: The outer web of the steel box unit component has a bracket fixedly installed on it. The rubber body is fixedly connected to the bracket; The rubber body and supports form a fender structure on the outer web of the mooring pontoon, providing elastic cushioning.

[0007] The bracket consists of vertical plates, longitudinal plates, and mounting panels; the vertical plates and longitudinal plates are multiple plates spaced apart.

[0008] Multiple vertical plates are welded and fixed to multiple longitudinal plates in a perpendicular and staggered manner, and multiple vertical plates and multiple longitudinal plates are fixedly contacted with the outer web plate at multiple points; the mounting panel is welded and fixed to the vertical plates and longitudinal plates, and the rubber body is fixed to the mounting panel.

[0009] The outer web plate is welded and fixed with a top plate and a bottom plate respectively. There are two spaced middle web plates between the outer web plates. The middle web plates are welded and fixed with the top plate and the bottom plate respectively. The top plate, bottom plate, middle web plates and outer web plates form a steel box unit with a three-hole structure.

[0010] Hollow diaphragms are welded and fixedly installed between the middle web plates and between the middle web plates and the outer web plates. Round tubes are welded and fixedly installed inside the hollow diaphragms. A column is welded and fixedly installed in the middle of the hollow diaphragm. T-shaped longitudinal ribs are welded and fixedly installed above and below the column.

[0012] A lifting lug plate is fixed to the middle web plate, and the lifting lug plate is provided with a lifting hole; the top plate above the lifting lug plate is provided with a cable passage hole for the cable to enter. The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: when the rubber body comes into contact with the dock, the impact force received by the rubber body is distributed to the outer web plate through the mounting panel and multiple vertical plates and longitudinal plates, thus solving the problem of localized indentation and deformation of the outer web plate under stress.

Detailed Implementation

[0014] The technical solution of this utility model is further described below, but the scope of protection is not limited to what is described.

[0015] Reference manual attached Figures 1 to 10 As shown.

[0016] The existing technology for prefabricated box units, as described in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN217460217U, allows for welding between the bottom plate and top plate, and between the web plate and the bottom plate and top plate, within the channel. However, welding the connection between the bottom of the top plate and the web plate and the top of the side sealing plate within the channel requires looking upwards, resulting in high labor intensity for the upward welding operation.

[0017] The present application discloses a manufacturing process for a berthing pontoon, comprising two main steps: prefabrication of steel box units and assembly of the berthing pontoon.

[0018] The prefabrication steps for the steel box unit are as follows.

[0019] One steel box unit corresponds to two top plates 1, one bottom plate 2, two middle web plates 3, two outer web plates 4, and three hollow partitions 5.

[0020] The two top plates 1 are first laid down in the bottom position and then welded together. This can be understood as... Figure 4 Rotate from the top plate 1 position to Figure 5 With the top plate 1 at the bottom, the T-shaped longitudinal ribs 6 and angle steel 11 are welded and fixed to the top plate 1.

[0021] The hollow partition 5 in the middle is welded and fixed to the middle of the top plate 1. Angle steel 11 and longitudinal middle web plate 3 are welded and fixed on both sides of the hollow partition 5 in the middle. Column 7 and round pipe 8 are welded and fixed on the hollow partition 5 in the middle.

[0022] Weld and fix the hollow partition plates 5 on both sides of the top plate 1. Weld and fix angle steel 11 and round pipe 8 to the hollow partition plates 5 on both sides. Weld and fix the outer web plates 4 on both sides of the top plate 1. Weld and fix the outer web plates 4 to the hollow partition plates 5 on both sides. Weld and fix the angle steel 11 and T-shaped longitudinal ribs 6 on the top of the three hollow partition plates 5. At this time, the top plate 1 is fully welded from top view to the middle web plate 3, outer web plate 4, hollow partition plates 5, and top plate 1.

[0023] The base plate 2 is placed on top of the three hollow partition plates 5 and temporarily fixed by spot welding to form a steel box unit with a cross-section of three box holes. The steel box unit is then flipped over so that the top plate 1 is... Figure 5 Rotate to the following state Figure 4 In the top position, the bottom plate 2 is fully welded to the three hollow partitions 5, angle steel 11, and T-shaped longitudinal ribs 6 from a top view.

[0024] During the prefabrication of the steel box unit, with the top plate 1 in the lower position, the middle web plate 3, outer web plate 4, and hollow partition plate 5 are fully welded to the top plate 1 from a top-down view, and the bottom plate 2 is spot welded. The steel box unit is then flipped over, with the top plate 1 in the upper position, and the bottom plate 2 is fully welded to the hollow partition plate 5 from a top-down view within the space of the hollow partition plate 5. This solves the problem of having to weld from below when welding the connection between the bottom of the top plate and the web plate and the top of the side sealing plate in the passage, and reduces the labor intensity of the welding operation from below.

[0025] The assembly steps for the berthing pontoon are as follows.

[0026] Prefabricated steel box units are transported to the dock site by vehicle. Multiple steel box units are assembled to form a larger berthing pontoon. Figure 1 , Figure 6 The top plate 1, bottom plate 2, and outer web plate 4 of the steel box units are fixedly installed by bevel welding at the joints; at this time, transversely distributed solid web partitions 10 are welded and fixedly installed in the middle of the berthing pontoon, and longitudinal angle steel 11 on the outer periphery of the hollow web partitions 5 penetrate the solid web partitions 10, such as... Figures 7 to 8 End caps 12 are welded and fixed at both ends of the berthing pontoon. Waist plates 13 are welded and fixed to the middle of both the end caps 12 and the solid web partition 10. Vertically distributed angle steel 11 is welded and fixed to the waist plates 13, with its upper and lower ends welded to the angle steel 11 that longitudinally penetrates the solid web partition 10. (See...) Figures 6 to 8 The solid partition 10 separates the middle web plate 3 and the outer web plate 4 between the steel box units.

[0027] The solid-web bulkheads 10 within the mooring pontoon and the space between the solid-web bulkheads 10 and the end cap 2 form independent communicating spaces, such as... Figure 6 As shown, concrete is poured into the connected space, and the berthing pontoon is lowered into the sea with a certain draft. Counterweights are installed inside the berthing pontoon to adjust the draft and maintain draft balance.

[0028] The outer web plate 4 at each of the four corners of the berthing pontoon has a draft gauge line 14 greater than 3m. Figure 5 The diagram shows a location where the draft gauge line is used to observe the draft depth after the buoy is launched into the sea.

[0029] The joints of the top plate 1, bottom plate 2, and outer web plate 4 of the steel box units are staggered. Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the top plate 1 of the previous steel box unit is welded to the top surface of the outer web plate 4 of the next steel box unit, and the bottom plate 2 of the next steel box unit is welded to the bottom surface of the outer web plate 4 of the previous steel box unit, so that the splicing seams of the top plate 1, the splicing seams of the outer web plate 4, and the splicing seams of the bottom plate 2 present a staggered joint structure.

[0030] The cross-section of the steel box unit is a three-hole structure, which requires stable support in the middle of the steel box unit. The existing support in the middle of the steel box unit is disclosed in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN202295235U, which uses vertical longitudinal bulkhead columns to strengthen the support in the middle of the box. However, when subjected to local stress, the box cannot bear the stress evenly in different parts.

[0031] This application discloses a steel box unit for mooring pontoons, comprising: The bottom plate 2 and the top plate 1 are provided. The bottom plate 2 has outer web plates 4 on both sides. The outer web plates 4 are welded and fixed to the top plate 1 and the bottom plate 2 respectively.

[0032] There are two spaced-apart intermediate webs 3 between the outer webs 4. The intermediate webs 3 are welded and fixed to the top plate 1 and the bottom plate 2 respectively.

[0033] Hollow partitions 5 are welded and fixedly installed between the middle web plates 3 and between the middle web plates 3 and the outer web plates 4. Round tubes 8 are welded and fixedly installed inside the hollow partitions 5. A column 7 is welded and fixedly installed in the middle of the hollow partition 5. T-shaped longitudinal ribs 6 are welded and fixedly installed above and below the column 7.

[0034] The hollow partitions 5 between the middle web plates 3 are hollow annular plates; the hollow partitions 5 between the middle web plate 3 and the outer web plate 4 are C-shaped hollow annular plates. See Figures 4 to 5 As shown.

[0035] Angle steels 11 are welded and fixedly installed at intervals on the outer periphery of the hollow partition 5. Multiple angle steels 11 transmit the forces borne by various parts of the box to the hollow partition 5, and then the forces are distributed through multiple angle steels 11.

[0036] The steel box of this application transmits and disperses the force it bears through three hollow partitions 5 and angle steels 11 spaced around the outer perimeter of the hollow partitions 5, thus solving the problem that the box cannot bear the force evenly when it is subjected to local stress.

[0037] After multiple steel box units are prefabricated, they are transported from the prefabrication plant to the dock, where they need to be hoisted and assembled. The existing box structure is shown in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN207311773U. To meet the hoisting requirements, lifting lugs are installed on the top plate, which is not conducive to transporting the steel box units through transportation roads with limited height.

[0038] The present application discloses a lifting lug structure for mooring a pontoon, comprising: A lifting lug plate 15 is fixed to the web plate 3. The lifting lug plate 15 has lifting holes for connecting to cables or hooks on cables. A cable passage hole 16 is provided on the top plate 1 above the lifting lug plate 15, allowing cables to enter. The lifting lug plate 15 is welded and fixed to the web plate 3 via a reinforcing plate 17. (See figure) Figure 9 , Figure 4 As shown.

[0039] A reinforcing seat 18 larger than the lug plate 15 is welded and fixed to the middle web plate 3 located on the back of the lug plate 15. The reinforcing seat 18 increases the deformation resistance of the back of the middle web plate 3.

[0040] The middle web plate 3 is welded and fixed with the top plate 1 and the bottom plate 2 on the upper and lower sides respectively. The outer web plate 4 is located on the outer side of the middle web plate 3. The outer web plate 4 is welded and fixed with the top plate 1 and the bottom plate 2 on the upper and lower sides respectively. The top plate 1, the bottom plate 2, the middle web plate 3, and the outer web plate 4 constitute a steel box unit with a three-hole structure.

[0041] The lifting lug 15 is located on the middle web 3 inside the space between the top plate 1 and the bottom plate 2. The middle web 3 does not occupy the height dimension of the steel box unit, so that the steel box unit can be manufactured to the maximum height limit of the transportation road conditions during prefabrication. This solves the problem that the lifting lug is on the top plate, which is not conducive to the transportation of the steel box unit through the limited transportation road conditions.

[0042] A manhole is provided on the top plate 1 near the cable hole 16. An openable cover plate 19 is installed on the top plate 1 at the manhole. A ladder 20 is provided on the middle web plate 3 below the manhole. Figure 4 As shown; when pouring concrete into the internal space of the steel box unit of the mooring pontoon, the concrete pump pipe extends into the manhole, and the internal gas is exhausted through the cable passage hole 16, so that the air containing dust in the mooring pontoon can be quickly discharged. After the concrete pouring is completed, the cable passage hole 16 is sealed and welded with a steel plate. Figure 1 Cable hole 16 was not shown in the diagram.

[0043] This application discloses a support fender structure for mooring pontoons, comprising: Multiple steel box units constitute the berthing pontoon. A bracket is welded and fixedly installed on the outer web plate 4 of the steel box unit. A rubber body 26 is bonded and fixedly connected to the bracket. The rubber body 26 and the bracket form a fender structure on the outer web plate 4 of the berthing pontoon that provides elastic cushioning.

[0044] The bracket, also called a support or a pedestal, consists of vertical plates 22, longitudinal plates 23, and a mounting panel 21. Multiple vertical plates 22 and longitudinal plates 23 are welded and fixed perpendicularly and intersectingly. The multiple vertical plates 22 and longitudinal plates 23 are in multiple fixed contacts with the outer web plate 4. The mounting panel 21 is welded and fixed to the vertical plates 22 and longitudinal plates 23, and the rubber body 26 is fixed to the mounting panel 21. (See attached image.) Figure 10 .See Figure 4 , Figure 1 . Figure 1 The left side shows multiple support fender structures, which are located on the outer perimeter of the mooring pontoon and can be installed as needed.

[0045] The powered vessel is pulled by the towing cable connected to the towing cable point 25 of the berthing pontoon. When it approaches the dock, the mooring cable is used to bypass the mooring bollard 24 on the berthing pontoon and connect with the dock. When the rubber body 26 comes into contact with the dock, the collision force received by the rubber body 26 is distributed to the outer web plate 4 through the mounting panel 21 through multiple vertical plates 22 and multiple longitudinal plates 23, which solves the problem of local stress causing dent deformation of the outer web plate.
