Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of marine engineering technology, and in particular relates to a wave-proof structure and a ship. Background Technology

[0002] In the overall design of semi-submersible vessels, the open deck serves as the core area for cargo loading, transfer, and personnel operations. The protection and functional design of its edges directly affect the vessel's navigation safety and operational efficiency. Among these components, the breakwater, as a vertical enclosure structure set along the deck edge, is a key protective component that prevents waves from splashing onto the deck, ensures the safety of personnel, and prevents cargo from slipping overboard due to the ship's rolling motion.

[0003] In existing technologies, breakwaters generally adopt a low-height design. This design primarily aims to facilitate clear observation of the external environment by deck personnel, while avoiding adverse effects on visibility and operational space during cargo hoisting caused by excessively high breakwaters. However, this low-height design prevents breakwaters from assisting ships in harnessing wind momentum, thus preventing forecastle-less vessels such as four-island semi-submersible ships from using wind power to increase speed and eliminating the possibility of achieving energy conservation and emission reduction through wind energy utilization. Ultimately, this results in these vessels struggling to reach economical speeds, significantly increasing operating costs, and also, to some extent, hindering the healthy development of forecastle-less vessel types such as four-island semi-submersible ships.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a wave-proof structure and vessel to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a wave-blocking structure and a ship that can not only block waves, but also be used as a sail to provide kinetic energy for ship navigation, significantly improving its versatility, reducing the cost of ship manufacturing, and solving the problem that ships without a bow, such as four-island semi-submersible ships, cannot sail with the help of wind power.

[0006] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] On the one hand, a wave-proof structure is provided, including:

[0008] Base;

[0009] The wave-damping component is rotatably mounted on the base. The wave-damping component has a first state and a second state. In the first state, the wave-damping component is housed in the base. In the second state, the wave-damping component is at least partially located above the base and can be set at an angle to the deck.

[0010] Optionally, the wave-damping component includes a first wave-damping plate and several second wave-damping plates, with one end of the first wave-damping plate rotatably connected to the base and the other end rotatably connected to the second wave-damping plates.

[0011] Optionally, the wave-damping component includes multiple connected second wave-damping plates, with any two connected second wave-damping plates being rotatably connected.

[0012] Optionally, the wave-damping structure also includes a support component, one end of which is connected to the base and the other end to the wave-damping element, and the length of the support component is adjustable.

[0013] Optionally, the base includes a wave-blocking part and a support part, with one side of the wave-blocking part connected to the support part and the other side used to block waves.

[0014] Optionally, the support includes two support plates spaced apart, and a receiving groove is formed between the wave-blocking part and the two support plates.

[0015] Optionally, the base also includes an enclosure that is movably disposed between the two support plates and spaced apart from the wave shield.

[0016] Optionally, the base also includes a limiting member disposed on the enclosure. The limiting member is detachably connected to the support. When the limiting member is connected to the support, the enclosure is limited by the limiting member to be located in the receiving groove.

[0017] Optionally, the wave-damping structure may also include energy-absorbing components, which are disposed on the wave-damping components or base and configured to absorb solar energy.

[0018] On the other hand, a vessel is provided, including a deck and the aforementioned wave-damping structure, the base of which is detachably mounted on the deck.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0020] This invention provides a wave-damping structure and a vessel. When the vessel is sailing against the wind, it experiences significant wind resistance. In this case, the wave-damping component can be switched to its first state, where only the base blocks waves, thus reducing the overall height of the structure and minimizing drag. When the vessel is sailing with the wind, the wave-damping component can be rotated to its second state. In this state, the component not only blocks waves along with the base but also functions as a sail, providing kinetic energy for the vessel. This significantly improves the versatility of the wave-damping structure, helps reduce shipbuilding costs, and solves the problem of bow-type semi-submersible vessels and other vessels without a forecastle being unable to sail with the wind. The base is detachably mounted on the deck, allowing for convenient installation and removal of the wave-damping structure, enhancing the ease of use. Attached Figure Description

[0033] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0034] Example 1

[0035] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a wave-blocking structure 100 that can not only block waves but also be used as a sail to provide kinetic energy for ship navigation, significantly improving its versatility and reducing the cost of ship manufacturing.

[0036] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The wave-damping structure 100 includes a base 110 and a wave-damping component 120. The wave-damping component 120 is rotatably disposed on the base 110. The wave-damping component 120 has a first state and a second state. In the first state, the wave-damping component 120 is housed in the base 110. In the second state, the wave-damping component 120 is at least partially located above the base 110 and can be arranged at an angle with the deck 200.

[0037] The wave-damping structure 100 provided in this embodiment can reduce the overall height of the wave-damping structure 100 and decrease the ship's resistance when sailing against the wind. When the ship is sailing with the wind, the wave-damping component 120 can be switched to its first state, where only the base 110 blocks waves, thus reducing the overall height of the wave-damping structure 100 and decreasing the ship's resistance. When the ship is sailing with the wind, the wave-damping component 120 can be rotated to its second state. In this state, the wave-damping component 120 not only blocks waves along with the base 110 but also functions as a sail, providing kinetic energy for the ship's navigation. This significantly improves the versatility of the wave-damping structure 100, helps reduce shipbuilding costs, and solves the problem that ships without a forecastle, such as four-island semi-submersible vessels, cannot sail with the wind.

[0038] Specifically, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 When the wave-proof structure 100 is installed at the bow of the ship for wave protection, the wave-proof component 120 is in the second state; when the ship is sailing with the wind and needs to use the wind power, the wave-proof component 120 is in the second state; when the ship is sailing against the wind and needs to reduce wind resistance, the wave-proof component 120 is driven to rotate relative to the base 110, which can switch the wave-proof component 120 to the first state.

[0039] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 and Figure 3 A vertically placed wave-damping plate 1121 is provided on the base 110, and the wave-damping component 120 is arranged around the first direction ( Figure 3 The wave-damping component 120 is rotatably mounted on the base 110 in the X direction. In the first state, the wave-damping component 120 is in contact with the wave-blocking plate 1121; in the second state, the included angle between the wave-damping component 120 and the deck 200 is in the range of 0° to 90°, and the specific angle is determined according to the actual use.

[0040] In other embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 3 The base 110 is provided with a storage slot 111, which is located on the top of the base 110 and has its opening facing upwards. Figure 3 (in the Z direction), wave-damping component 120 around the first direction ( Figure 3 The wave-damping component 120 is rotatably mounted on the base 110 in the X direction. In the first state, the wave-damping component 120 extends horizontally, that is, the wave-damping component 120 is parallel to the deck 200; in the second state, the included angle between the wave-damping component 120 and the deck 200 is in the range of 0° to 90°, and the specific angle is determined according to the actual use.

[0041] Preferably, see Figure 1 and Figure 3 In the second state, the wave-breaking component 120 is perpendicular to the deck 200.

[0042] In other embodiments, see Figure 3 In the orientation of the wave-damping component 120, a plate body is used, the opening of the storage slot 111 faces the horizontal direction, one corner of the wave-damping component 120 is rotatably connected to the base 110, and the wave-damping component 120 is rotated around the second direction ( Figure 3 The wave protector 120 rotates in the Y direction and remains perpendicular to the deck regardless of whether it is in the first or second state.

[0043] Optionally, the wave-damping structure 100 further includes a locking member disposed on the base 110, which is used to lock the position of the wave-damping member 120 on the base 110 in the first state so that the wave-damping member 120 can be stably in the first state.

[0044] In this embodiment, the locking member includes a hook disposed on the base 110. In the first state, the hook is hooked onto the anti-wave member 120. In other embodiments, the locking member includes a pin. In the first state, the pin is inserted into the base 110 and the anti-wave member 120.

[0045] Optionally, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The wave-damping component 120 includes a first wave-damping plate 121 and several second wave-damping plates 122. One end of the first wave-damping plate 121 is rotatably connected to the base 110, and the other end is rotatably connected to the second wave-damping plates 122. This arrangement allows the angle between the first wave-damping plate 121 and the second wave-damping plates 122 to be adjusted. Therefore, when the wave-damping component 120 is used as a sail, the overall bending angle of the wave-damping component 120 can be adaptively adjusted according to the wind direction, improving the utilization of wind energy.

[0046] Specifically, see Figure 2 and Figure 3The wave-damping structure 100 also includes a first rotating shaft 123 and a second rotating shaft 124. The first rotating shaft 123 is rotatably disposed between the first wave-damping plate 121 and the base 110 around its own axis to realize the rotational connection between the first wave-damping plate 121 and the base 110. The second rotating shaft 124 is rotatably disposed between the first wave-damping plate 121 and the second wave-damping plate 122 around its own axis to realize the rotational connection between the first wave-damping plate 121 and the second wave-damping plate 122.

[0047] Furthermore, the wave-damping component 120 also includes a first rotary drive unit and a second rotary drive unit. The output end of the first rotary drive unit is connected to the first rotating shaft 123 and is used to drive the first rotating shaft 123 to rotate the first wave-damping plate 121 relative to the base 110. The output end of the first rotary drive unit is connected to the second rotating shaft 124 and is used to drive the second rotating shaft 124 to rotate the second wave-damping plate 122 relative to the first wave-damping plate 121, which significantly improves the convenience of operation for staff.

[0048] In this embodiment, see Figure 2 There is one second wave deflector 122.

[0049] In other embodiments, the wave-damping component 120 includes a plurality of interconnected second wave-damping plates 122, with any two interconnected second wave-damping plates 122 being rotatably connected. This configuration increases the overall bendability of the wave-damping component 120, allowing it to better adapt to wind direction and further improving its wind energy utilization efficiency.

[0050] Specifically, the lowermost second wave deflector 122 among the multiple second wave deflectors 122 is rotatably connected to the first wave deflector 121. Except for the lowermost second wave deflector 122, the other wave deflectors are connected sequentially from bottom to top in the vertical direction.

[0051] For example, the connection method between any two adjacent second wave deflectors 122 is the same as the connection method between the second wave deflector 122 and the first wave deflector 121, and will not be described again here.

[0052] Optionally, see Figure 2 and Figure 3The wave-damping structure 100 also includes a support component 130, one end of which is connected to the base 110 and the other end to the wave-damping element 120. The length of the support component 130 is adjustable. This configuration allows the support component 130, the base 110, and the wave-damping element 120 to form a triangular structure in the second state, ensuring that the wave-damping element 120 can be stably positioned, thus improving the reliability and safety of the wave-damping structure 100. When the wave-damping element 120 switches between the first and second states, the support component 130 can adaptively adjust by changing its length, improving the flexibility of the wave-damping structure 100.

[0053] In this embodiment, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The support component 130 includes a first support member 131 and a second support member 132, and the wave-damping component 120 includes a first wave-damping plate 121 and a second wave-damping plate 122. One end of the first support member 131 is connected to the first wave-damping plate 121, and the other end is connected to the base 110. One end of the second support member 132 is connected to the second wave-damping plate 122, and the other end is connected to the base 110.

[0054] Specifically, see Figure 1 and Figure 3 , wave-damping component 120 around the first direction ( Figure 3 The first support member 131 (in the X direction) is rotatably mounted on the base 110. The first support member 131 includes a plurality of first support rods spaced apart along a first direction. The second support member 132 includes a plurality of second support rods spaced apart along the first direction, which helps to improve the support effect of the support assembly 130 on the wave-breaking member 120 in the second state. In the second state, the wave-breaking member 120 is perpendicular to the deck 200, and both the first and second support rods are vertically inclined.

[0055] For example, both the first support rod and the second support rod are telescopic rods.

[0056] Optionally, see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The base 110 includes a wave-blocking part 112 and a support part 113. One side of the wave-blocking part 112 is connected to the support part 113, and the other side is used to block waves, so that the wave-proof structure 100 still has the effect of wave protection in the first state. The support part 113 can support the wave-blocking part 112 to ensure the stability of the overall structure of the base 110 and improve the reliability of the wave-proof structure 100.

[0057] In this embodiment, see Figure 1The wave-blocking section 112 includes a wave-blocking plate 1121 and a plurality of first reinforcing plates 1122. The wave-blocking plate 1121 is perpendicular to the deck 200 and is used to block waves. The plurality of first reinforcing plates 1122 are connected in a matrix on the side of the wave-blocking plate 1121 facing the support section 113, and the first reinforcing plates 1122 are set at an angle to the wave-blocking plate 1121. The plurality of first reinforcing plates 1122 can divide the wave-blocking plate 1121 into multiple regions, increasing the overall strength and load-bearing capacity of the wave-blocking plate 1121, so that the wave-blocking plate 1121 can block larger waves.

[0058] Specifically, a portion of the plurality of first reinforcing plates 1122 extends vertically, and another portion of the plurality of first reinforcing plates 1122 extends horizontally, thereby dividing the wave-breaking plate 1121 into a plurality of rectangular spaces.

[0059] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The support section 113 includes two spaced-apart support plates 1131, and a receiving groove 114 is formed between the wave-blocking section 112 and the two support plates 1131. In some ships (such as four-island semi-submersible vessels), the working space inside the hull is severely compressed, so tools inside the hull can only be placed on the deck 200, thus occupying cargo loading and unloading space. The receiving groove 114 provides space for these tools to be placed on the deck 200, allowing the wave-blocking structure 100 and the tools to share the same area on the deck 200, which not only improves the space utilization of the wave-blocking structure 100, but also provides sufficient space for loading and unloading on the deck 200. In addition, the receiving groove 114 also helps to reduce the weight of the base 110, thereby reducing the overall weight of the wave-blocking structure 100. Compared with the prior art, there is no need to use large lifting equipment to move the wave-blocking structure 100; it can be moved using only a small forklift on the ship, which helps to reduce the operating cost of the ship and improve the ease of installation and dismantling of the wave-blocking structure 100.

[0060] For example, tools include, but are not limited to, wooden blocks, square boxes, and round boxes of different sizes.

[0061] For example, both the wave-breaking plate 1121 and the support plate 1131 are made of steel plates, and the overall weight of the wave-breaking structure 100 is 3 tons.

[0062] Specifically, see Figure 3 Two support plates 1131 are respectively located at both ends of the wave deflector 1121. The cross-sectional shape of the base 110 is U-shaped. The receiving groove 114 and the storage groove 111 are connected vertically. The opening of the receiving groove 114 is opened in the horizontal direction.

[0063] In some embodiments, the base 110 is relatively high, providing a large vertical space for the receiving groove 114. When the anti-wave component 120 is switched to its first state, the receiving groove 114 provides ample space for workers to perform welding work or take temporary breaks, protecting them from external environmental influences and significantly improving their usability.

[0064] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The support portion 113 also includes a plurality of second reinforcing plates 1132 disposed on the support plate 1131. The plurality of second reinforcing plates 1132 are arranged in a matrix and are arranged at an angle to the support plate 1131. The plurality of second reinforcing plates 1132 can divide the support plate 1131 into multiple regions, increasing the overall strength and load-bearing capacity of the support plate 1131, so that the support plate 1131 can stably support the wave deflector 1121.

[0065] Specifically, a portion of the plurality of second reinforcing plates 1132 extends vertically, and another portion of the plurality of second reinforcing plates 1132 extends horizontally, thereby dividing the support plate 1131 into a plurality of rectangular spaces.

[0066] In this embodiment, see Figure 4 The base 110 also includes a protective member 115, which is movably disposed between the two support plates 1131 and spaced apart from the wave-blocking part 112. This arrangement ensures that the tools stored in the receiving groove 114 are stably constrained within the receiving groove 114 by the protective member 115, preventing movement and guaranteeing reliability during storage.

[0067] Specifically, see Figure 4 A slide rail 1133 is provided on the side of the support plate 1131 facing the receiving groove 114, and the slide rail 1133 is along the groove depth direction of the receiving groove 114. Figure 4 Extending in the Y direction, the enclosure 115 is provided with a sliding part 1151 that slides with the slide rail 1133. The enclosure 115 is slidably disposed in the receiving groove 114 through the sliding part 1151 and the slide rail 1133.

[0068] Further, see Figure 1 and Figure 4 The enclosure 115 includes an enclosure panel 1152 and a pad 1153. A gap is provided between the bottom of the enclosure panel 1152 and the deck 200. The pad 1153 is inserted into the gap, which helps to prevent water on the deck 200 from entering the receiving groove 114 through the gap, thereby improving the safety of tool storage and worker operation.

[0069] In this embodiment, see Figure 4The base 110 also includes a limiting member 116 disposed on the enclosure 115. The limiting member 116 is detachably connected to the support 113. When the limiting member 116 is connected to the support 113, the enclosure 115 is limited by the limiting member 116 within the receiving groove 114, which improves the stability when the tool is stored.

[0070] Specifically, the limiting member 116 includes a screw portion that can be threadedly connected to the support portion 113, thereby enabling the limiting member 116 and the support portion 113 to be separably connected and ensuring stability during connection.

[0071] For example, the limiting member 116 is a bolt.

[0072] In some embodiments, multiple limiting members 116 are provided. The position and arrangement of the multiple limiting members 116 on the enclosure member 115 are determined according to the specific situation. As long as the limiting member 116 is connected to the support part 113, the position of the enclosure member 115 in the receiving groove 114 is fixed and the tool in the receiving groove 114 can be protected by the enclosure member 115.

[0073] Optionally, the wave-damping structure 100 also includes an energy-absorbing element disposed on the wave-damping element 120 or the base 110, configured to absorb solar energy. The absorbed solar energy can be used to power the ship's operation, helping to reduce the ship's daily operating costs.

[0074] Specifically, the energy-absorbing component is disposed on the side of the wave-proof component 120 away from the base 110. The wave-proof structure 100 also includes an energy storage component disposed on the base 110. The energy storage component is electrically connected to the energy-absorbing component and is used to store the solar energy absorbed by the energy-absorbing component.

[0075] For example, the energy-absorbing element is a solar panel.

[0076] Example 2

[0077] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a ship, including a deck 200 and a wave-damping structure 100 of Embodiment 1. The base 110 of the wave-damping structure 100 is detachably mounted on the deck 200. The detachable mounting of the base 110 of the wave-damping structure 100 on the deck 200 allows the wave-damping structure 100 to be easily installed and removed on the ship, improving the convenience of ship use.

[0078] For example, the base 110 is detachably connected to the deck 200 by bolts.

[0079] Optionally, see Figure 1The vessel includes multiple wave-damping structures 100, and the position of any one of the wave-damping structures 100 on the deck 200 is adjustable, so that the multiple wave-damping structures 100 can be flexibly installed at any position on the deck 200 according to cargo carrying needs, wave protection needs, and wind power utilization needs, and form a sail matrix on the deck 200, which not only improves the flexibility and convenience of use, but also greatly increases the ship's downwind speed and improves navigation economy.

[0080] For example, the vessel is a four-island semi-submersible vessel.

[0081] The above description is only a specific embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art should understand that any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model fall within the protection and disclosure scope of the present utility model.
