Shipping Equipment TRIZ Cases
- Integrated Mooring Arm for Faster Ship Distance Control
An integrated arm maintains minimum distance from a moored ship, reducing setup time and avoiding oversized fenders.
- Kinetic-Energy Vacuum Mooring Device Without External Power
External energy is normally needed for vacuum mooring; impact kinetic energy instead generates pressure for on-demand suction.
- Bistable Spring Band Mounting for Repositionable Dock Bumpers
This case uses a straight-to-coiled spring band and pin to secure dock bumpers reliably while simplifying tool-free repositioning.
- Modular Floating Platform With Adjustable Buoyancy for Port Construction
A modular floating structure uses inflatable active floats and passive anchors to adjust platform height independently of sea floor conditions.
- Adjustable Magnetic Mooring Device for Vessel Movement
A mooring device uses hydraulic cylinders to adjust magnetic field strength for secure vessel attachment.
- Mooring Apparatus Drop-In Uni-Joint OPB Fatigue Mitigation
Rotational socket design mitigates out of plane bending fatigue in offshore mooring systems without complex lever arms.
- Marine Construction Using Fixed Perimeter and Floating Inner Elements
A marine construction system combines fixed seabed perimeter elements with floating inner modules to create stable artificial surfaces.
- Mooring Apparatus Universal Joint Socket
A mooring apparatus socket uses a dual-axis universal joint to rotate the connection member and accommodate vessel movement.
- Boat Docking Assist Assembly Impact Absorption
Movable arm absorbs docking impact to prevent damage, resolving the trade-off between secure holding and structural protection.
- Adjustable Boat Dock Bumper Assembly for Multi-Axis Impact Protection
Segmented clamp frames and multi-dimensional bumpers absorb lateral and vertical impacts, resolving compatibility trade-offs.
