Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cable measurement, and in particular to a device for measuring ship cables. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasingly severe global climate change problem, countries are accelerating energy structure adjustments and actively transitioning to low-carbon and clean energy sources, aiming to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions globally by around 2050. Ammonia, as a carbon-neutral fuel, can achieve zero carbon emissions in end-use energy, showing great potential in the green fuel sector and becoming one of the main fuels for decarbonization in the shipping industry. Liquid ammonia and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), as clean energy sources, are gradually becoming popular choices for fuel transformation in the shipping industry due to their low-carbon and environmentally friendly characteristics. This has driven the increase in LPG trade and shale gas extraction, leading to continued growth in the LPG shipping market and a sustained expansion of demand for cryogenic gas carriers. Large liquefied gas carriers (VLGCs / VLACs) are key equipment for the maritime transport of liquefied gas / liquid ammonia. The construction of large liquefied gas carriers requires a large number of cables.

[0003] During ship construction, the length of cables needs to be measured before use. Traditional measurement methods often involve placing the cable on a measuring table and measuring with tools such as a tape measure. However, during the measurement process, it is not easy to keep the cable taut, resulting in a loose cable and significant measurement errors. Furthermore, the measuring table is designed to accommodate the cable and is of a certain length, which takes up a large amount of storage space after the measurement is completed, causing storage inconvenience.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The present invention will be further illustrated by way of embodiments below, but the present invention is not limited to the scope of the embodiments described herein.

[0025] like Figures 1-6 As shown, the ship cable measuring device includes a platform; it also includes: The first clamping assembly 8 is fixedly installed on one side of the top of the platform; The second clamping assembly 9 has a slider 17 fixed at its bottom. The top surface of the platform has a sliding groove 7, and the slider 17 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 7. The cross-section of the slider 17 and the cross-section of the sliding groove 7 are both I-shaped. Through the above design, the slider 17 and the sliding groove 7 can be prevented from separating vertically.

[0026] The top surface of the platform is provided with a scale 6 along the length direction, and a pointer 10 is installed on the second clamping component 9, with one end of the pointer 10 attached to the scale 6; The flip assembly 11 is provided. The platform is composed of a first plate 1 and a second plate 2. The flip assembly 11 is installed between the first plate 1 and the second plate 2. The flip assembly 11 enables the first plate 1 and the second plate 2 to switch between folded and unfolded states.

[0027] When measuring a cable, both ends of the cable are placed in the first clamping assembly 8 and the second clamping assembly 9 respectively for clamping. Then, the second clamping assembly 9 is pulled, and the slider 17 slides within the groove 7 to taut the cable. While maintaining the taut state, the value indicated by the pointer 10 on the scale 6 is read to measure the cable length. Figure 1 As shown. The above measurement method allows for length measurement while the cable is kept taut.

[0028] like Figures 3-4 As shown, the flipping assembly 11 includes a first connecting frame 1101 fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the second plate 2; the first connecting frame 1101 is hinged to a second connecting frame 1102 via a pivot 1103, and a slide block 1104 is fixedly installed on the side of the second connecting frame 1102 away from the pivot 1103. The slide block 1104 is slidably connected to a slide rail 1105 fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the first plate 1; a stop 1106 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the first plate 1.

[0029] like Figure 6 As shown, the slide block 1104 has a sliding groove, which is slidably engaged with the slide rail 1105; the cross-sections of the sliding groove and the slide rail 1105 are convex. This design prevents the slide block 1104 from separating from the slide rail 1105 in the vertical direction.

[0030] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a slot 102 is provided on one side of the first plate 1, and a plug 201 is fixedly installed on one side of the second plate 2; when the first plate 1 and the second plate 2 are in the unfolded state, the plug 201 is inserted into the slot 102.

[0031] A first magnet 101 is fixedly installed in the slot 102, and the first magnet 101 is magnetically connected to the insertion block 201. In a specific implementation, the insertion block 201 is made of iron and can be magnetically attracted by the first magnet 101.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, the first plate 1 and the second plate 2 are in the unfolded state, with the first plate 1 and the second plate 2 being flush and at the same height. They are connected by the insertion of the plug 201 into the slot 102, and the first magnetic block 101 is magnetically attracted to the plug 201, ensuring the stability of the connection. This state is used for cable measurement.

[0033] When the entire device is not in use, it can be folded and stored by flipping component 11 to reduce storage space. The specific operation is as follows: pull the second plate 2 to separate it from the first plate 1. The insert 201 is pulled out of the slot 102. Simultaneously, the second plate 2 moves the first connecting bracket 1101, the rotating shaft 1103, the second connecting bracket 1102, and the slide 1104 together. The slide 1104 slides along the slide rail 1105 until it is blocked by the stop 1106. After the above operation, the entire device is as follows: Figures 2-3 As shown. Next, flip the second plate 2, rotating it 180°, as shown below. Figure 4 As shown, this allows for folding and storage.

[0034] When the entire device is re-unfolded, it can be done by reversing the operation, that is, the second plate 2 is flipped 180° in the opposite direction, then the insert 201 is inserted into the slot 102, and the insert 201 is magnetically connected to the first magnetic block 101. The first plate 1 and the second plate 2 form a structure as follows: Figure 1 Deck shown.

[0035] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 4 As shown, two first support columns 3 are fixedly installed on the bottom side of the first plate 1 away from the second plate 2.

[0036] Two second support columns 4 are fixedly installed on the bottom side of the second plate 2 away from the first plate 1, and a stop bar 5 is fixedly installed between the two second support columns 4.

[0037] The first support column 3 and the second support column 4 are used to elevate the first plate 1 and the second plate 2. A stop bar 5 is also provided; when the entire device is folded and stored, after the second plate 2 is rotated 180°, the stop bar 5 fits against the bottom surface of the first plate 1 to prevent it from falling into place. Figure 4 As shown.

[0038] like Figures 3-4 As shown, multiple second magnetic blocks 501 are fixedly installed on the baffle 5; when the first plate 1 and the second plate 2 are in a folded and stored state, the second magnetic blocks 501 are magnetically connected to the bottom surface of the first plate 1. The bottom surface of the first plate 1 can be made of iron and can be magnetically attracted by the second magnetic blocks 501.

[0039] like Figure 5 As shown, both the first clamping assembly 8 and the second clamping assembly 9 include a sleeve 12. The top of the sleeve 12 is fixedly connected to a nut seat 13. The nut seat 13 is threadedly connected to a screw 14. One end of the screw 14 located inside the sleeve 12 is fixedly installed with a pressure seat 15, and the other end of the screw 14 is fixedly installed with a turntable 16.

[0040] The first clamping assembly 8 and the second clamping assembly 9 have the same structure and are used to clamp the two ends of the cable, respectively. When clamping, the cable end is inserted into the sleeve 12, and the screw 14 is turned by the turntable 16. The screw 14 and the nut seat 13 are screwed together, which drives the pressure seat 15 to move downward, and clamps the cable end with the inner wall of the bottom of the sleeve 12.

[0041] After the test, by turning the turntable 16, the screw 14 and the nut seat 13 are screwed together, which drives the pressure seat 15 to move upward to loosen the cable end.

[0042] The bottom of the sleeve 12 of the first clamping component 8 is fixed to the first plate 1; the bottom of the sleeve 12 of the second clamping component 9 is fixed to the slider 17, and the side wall of the sleeve 12 of the second clamping component 9 is fixed to the pointer 10.

[0043] In practical implementation, the entire device can also assist in cutting cables. The specific operation is as follows: the cable is passed through the sleeve 12 of the second clamping assembly 9, and the cable end is clamped by the first clamping assembly 8, while the second clamping assembly 9 does not clamp the cable. The cable is manually pulled to straighten it. Then, the second clamping assembly 9 is moved, allowing it to slide on the cable. The pointer 10 on the second clamping assembly 9 moves to the mark 6 where cutting is required. Using the sleeve 12 of the second clamping assembly 9 as a marker, the cable is manually cut using external cutting equipment. Through the above operations, the cable cutting function is achieved.

The protection scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims. Those skilled in the art can make various changes or modifications to these embodiments without departing from the principles and essence of this utility model, but all such changes and modifications fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
