Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a combined structure of an engine cover that surrounds the outer surface of a ship's engine and a cable duct that accommodates cables. In particular, the invention is configured such that a fastening portion of the engine cover is formed on the cable duct that accommodates and protects the cables, thereby enabling the engine cover to be mounted on the cable duct. Background Technology

[0002] Recently, in order to improve the working environment of the engine room, the side of the engine that is exposed to the outside is wrapped with an engine cover so that the engine is not exposed to the outside, thereby improving the appearance and the environment of the engine room.

[0003] Meanwhile, cables used in large vessels span tens of kilometers, with a significant length of cable mounted on the engines. These cables are also housed inside cable ducts to prevent external exposure and protect them from external impacts.

[0004] Conventionally, the engine cover and cable ducts were configured separately around the engine, making it difficult to secure space. Furthermore, the separate installation of the engine cover and cable ducts resulted in a high labor cost. The structure of the engine cover and cable ducts is explained in detail below.

[0005] Typically, engine covers are arranged in a row along the side of the engine; in order to arrange them in this manner, the top and bottom ends of each engine cover must be fastened and secured to the engine.

[0006] In addition, cables are mostly positioned in a straight line around the engine to allow for the shortest possible connection to the terminals to be connected, and due to this characteristic, cable ducts are also arranged in a straight line around the engine.

[0007] Therefore, the engine covers arranged in a row and the cable ducts with a straight structure are positioned separately on the side of the engine, and as a result, there is a problem of low space utilization, as well as an increased labor cost due to the need to carry out the installation work of the engine covers and cable ducts separately. The problem to be solved

[0008] The present invention was developed to solve the problems of the prior art as described above, and aims to provide a combined structure of a ship's engine cover and a cable duct configured to utilize the cable duct mounted on the engine as a support for the engine cover, taking into account the characteristics of the engine cover arranged in a row and the cable duct having a straight structure. means of solving the problem

[0009] The joint structure of an engine cover and a cable duct of a ship according to the present invention for achieving the above-mentioned purpose is characterized by the fact that a fixing part of a cable duct, which is laterally open so that a cable is positioned inside, is fixed to the side of the engine while wrapping around the side of a gas pipe, and the open side of the fixing part is covered by a cover to close and protect the cable located inside, and the lower part of the engine cover is fitted into a rail formed on the upper surface of the cable duct covered by the cover on the fixing part, and the upper part of the engine cover is mounted and fixed to the upper surface of the cylinder head.

[0010] In addition, according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the fixing portion of the cable duct is bent to wrap around gas pipe clamps positioned at intervals along the gas pipe, and after the fixing portion wraps around the gas pipe clamps, a bolt passing through the fixing portion is fastened to the gas pipe clamps to secure them.

[0011] In addition, according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the upper and lower portions of the cover are configured to overlap the upper and lower portions of the fixing portion, and the upper portion of the cover is flat so that the engine cover is seated thereon.

[0012] In addition, according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the engine cover has a projection formed that aligns with a rail formed on a fixed part, the upper part of the engine cover covers a cylinder head, and a bolt formed on the upper part of the engine cover is fastened to a female screw hole formed in the cylinder head so that the engine cover is fixed to the cylinder head. Effects of the invention

[0013] As explained above, the combined structure of the engine cover and cable duct of a ship according to the present invention is configured to support the lower end of the engine cover, which is arranged in a row on the side of the engine to cover the side of the engine, with the cable duct. This has the advantage of simplifying construction and enabling a beautiful appearance by integrating the support for the engine cover of the cable duct, which was previously configured separately.

[0014] In addition, the combined structure of the engine cover and cable duct of a ship according to the present invention has the advantage of facilitating the installation of the engine cover by configuring the lower end of the engine cover to be fitted and mounted along a rail formed on the upper surface of the cable duct after the cable duct has been installed.
