Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a device for releasing the hook of an oil boom. Background Technology

[0002] An oil boom is a waterproof oil spill containment device that uses a floating body and skirt structure to intercept the spread of oil on the water surface. It consists of components such as a floating body, skirt, tension band, counterweight chain, mooring anchors, and joints. The floating body provides buoyancy support, the skirt prevents oil from spilling downwards, the counterweight chain causes the oil boom to sag and improves its performance, and the mooring anchors and joints provide fixed connections.

[0003] Currently, when connecting oil booms to oil boom boats or shore (docks), the ropes at both ends of the boom are mostly secured manually by tying knots. This manual knotting method is cumbersome and inefficient. Therefore, it is necessary to improve this technical aspect. Utility Model Content

[0020] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model discloses an oil boom attachment release device, which consists of three parts: a release assembly 10, a land attachment assembly 11, and a hull attachment assembly 12. The release assembly 10 can float on the water surface and includes a buoy 8, a connecting cable 6, and a float 7. One end of the float 7 is connected to the buoy 8 via the connecting cable 6, and the other end of the float 7 is used to connect to the rope at the end of the oil boom. The land attachment assembly 11 is used to be installed on the shore (dock), and the hull attachment assembly 12 is used to be installed on the oil boom boat. Both the land attachment assembly 11 and the hull attachment assembly 12 include a connecting hook 18 for hooking the buoy 8. The hook opening of the connecting hook 18 faces upward to facilitate the insertion of the connecting cable 6. By using the connecting hook to hook the buoy, the release process is effectively simplified, eliminating the tedious process of manually tying knots in the rope, making operation convenient and effectively improving work efficiency.

[0021] In this embodiment, the connecting hook 18 includes a pair of left and right symmetrical and spaced-apart limiting plates 3. The limiting plates 3 are vertically arranged, and there is an accommodating gap 13 between the pair of limiting plates 3 for accommodating the connecting cable 6. The float 8 is hooked on the side of the pair of limiting plates 3 facing away from the float 7, so that the connecting hook can hook the float.

[0022] In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the connection of the cable to enter and exit the accommodating gap better, the upper part of the adjacent end of the pair of limiting plates 3 is provided with a quarter-circle arc edge 14, the lower part of the limiting plate 3 is rectangular, and the arc openings of the arc edges 14 of the pair of limiting plates 3 are distributed in opposite directions, that is, the accommodating gap 13 is generally distributed in a V-shape.

[0023] In this embodiment, an arc-shaped edging steel strip 4 is welded and fixed to the side of the arc-shaped edge 14 facing away from the float 7, and a vertical edging steel strip 15 is provided at the lower end of the arc-shaped edging steel strip 4 and fixedly connected to the limiting plate 3. Furthermore, the sides of both the arc-shaped edging steel strip 4 and the vertical edging steel strip 14 are rounded to prevent the connecting cable from breaking under shear force.

[0024] In this embodiment, to facilitate the fixing of a pair of limiting plates, a pair of limiting plates 3 are vertically fixed to the top of a horizontally arranged base plate 1. Furthermore, triangular reinforcing plates 2 are fixed between the base plate 1 and the front and rear sides of each limiting plate 3 to improve the structural strength of the limiting plates 3 and enhance their tensile strength.

[0025] In this embodiment, the base plate 1 of the land-based strap assembly 11 is provided with mounting holes 16 for fixing to the ground with fasteners. Specifically, the base plate 1 of the land-based strap assembly 11 is rectangular, and the mounting holes 16 are distributed at the four corners of the base plate 1. The mounting holes are connected to the ground by expansion bolts, thereby fixing the base plate of the land-based strap assembly to the ground on the shore (dock).

[0026] In this embodiment, a vertically arranged hull fixing plate 9 is vertically fixed to the bottom of the base plate 1 of the hull strap assembly 12. The hull fixing plate 9 has bolt holes 17 for connection to the oil boom vessel via fasteners. Specifically, the hull fixing plate 9 is fixed to the port and starboard sides of the oil boom vessel via bolts passing through the bolt holes, for securing the oil boom towed at sea. Specifically, in the hull strap assembly, the base plate serves as the dividing line between the limiting plate and the hull fixing plate.

[0027] In this embodiment, semi-circular earrings 5 ​​are welded and fixed at both ends of the float 7 and on the float body 8. The two ends of the connecting cable 6 are respectively connected to the semi-circular earrings 5 ​​on the float body 9 and the semi-circular earrings 5 ​​on the float 7. The semi-circular earring 5 at the end of the float 7 away from the connecting cable 6 is used to connect to the rope at the end of the oil boom.

[0028] In this embodiment, the float 8 is a hollow stainless steel structure that can float on the water surface; the buoy 7 is cylindrical. The limiting plate, base plate, reinforcing plate, and hull fixing plate are all made of steel plate.

[0029] It should be noted that in actual use, the connection between the unhooking assembly and the land-based or hull-based attachment assembly can be achieved manually or by a robotic arm.

[0030] Specific work process: The buoy 7 is connected to the cables at both ends of the oil boom, and the buoy 8 is used to position the end of the oil boom. The hull attachment assembly 12 is fixed to the port and starboard sides of the oil boom vessel through bolt holes on the hull fixing steel plate 9, and is used to secure the oil boom towed at sea; the land attachment assembly 11 is fixed to the shore (dock) through mounting holes 16 on the base plate 1, and is used to secure the recovered oil boom. When recovering the oil boom, the approximate position of the buoy 7 can be determined manually or by using a robotic arm, based on the position of the buoy 8. The buoy 7 is then clamped, and the connecting rope 6 is inserted into the receiving gap 13 between the two limiting plates 3 of the hull attachment assembly 12, thus securing the buoy 8 onto the hull attachment assembly 12. The oil boom vessel tows the oil boom to the shore. Next, the oil boom needs to be secured to the land. The buoy 7 is clamped manually or with a robotic arm, and the oil boom, along with its buoy, is lowered into the receiving gap 13 between the two limiting plates 3 of the land-based attachment assembly, as shown in Figure 1. In this way, the oil boom is firmly secured to the limiting plates 3 of the land-based attachment assembly 11 by the buoy 8. When it is necessary to deploy the oil boom fixed on land to the sea surface, the buoy 7 is clamped manually or with a robotic arm, lifted, and transferred to the hull attachment assembly 12 on the oil boom vessel. The vessel then tows the oil boom to the designated sea area for deployment. The deployment process is the reverse of the recovery process and will not be described in detail here.

[0031] The advantages of this utility model are: (1) It has a wide range of applications and comprehensive functions, and can be used on both the hull and land to meet the multi-purpose needs of oil booms; (2) When used in conjunction with a robotic arm, it can achieve automated hooking and unhooking; (3) It can be used for manual hanging and unhooking, simplifying the tedious process of manually tying knots in the rope during the hanging and unhooking process; (4) Reduce wear on steel cables; (5) Reduce the risk of people falling into the water and ensure personal safety; (6) Improve work efficiency.

[0032] If this utility model discloses or relates to mutually fixedly connected parts or structural components, then, unless otherwise stated, a fixed connection can be understood as: a detachable fixed connection (e.g., using bolts or screws), or a non-detachable fixed connection (e.g., riveting, welding). Of course, mutually fixed connections can also be replaced by an integral structure (e.g., manufactured using a casting process) (except where it is obviously impossible to use an integral forming process).

[0033] In addition, unless otherwise stated, the terms used to indicate positional relationships or shapes in any of the technical solutions disclosed in this utility model above include states or shapes that are similar to, close to, or approximate with them.

[0034] Any component provided by this utility model can be assembled from multiple individual components, or it can be a single component manufactured by a one-piece molding process.
