技术领域
本发明涉及一种海底或水下连接器。
背景技术

插头前端壳体适合用于ROV型、DIVER型或STAB型的湿式插接连接器中的任何一种,插头前端壳体具有凹槽,该凹槽适于当前端壳体用于ROV型的湿式插接连接器时,以及可选地当用于DIVER型的湿式插接连接器时接收锁定构件,但不用于STAB型的湿式插接连接器。然而,通过标准化存在于所有类型连接器中,且只在其中的一些中不发挥作用的那些特征,诸如凹槽,由此简化制造和供应并且降低总体成本。
牛鼻状倒圆特征包括一系列的三个截头锥体,所述三个截头锥体中的第一锥体和第三锥体包括基本全等的面,第一锥体和第二锥体在它们的最大直径处连结,并且第二锥体和第三锥体在它们的最小直径处连结。
插头精细对准特征可包括形成键槽的纵向凹槽。
插头前端壳体的壳体前区段可包括设置在朝向所述壳体前区段的后端的位置处的一个或多个流体出口。
根据本发明的第二方面,一种ROV型、DIVER型或STAB型的湿式插接连接器的插座前端壳体包括彼此轴向串联的壳体前区段、定位器安装区段,以及密封区段;其中,所述壳体前区段包括:位于所述壳体前区段的内表面上的插座粗略对准特征,所述插座粗略对准特征靠近所述壳体前区段的前表面并在所述壳体的中心轴线的径向外侧;其中,所述插座粗略对准特征包括导入倒角;所述壳体还包括:用于ROV型或DIVER型的湿式插接连接器的锁定构件,所述锁定构件位于所述壳体前区段的内表面上,从所述插座粗略对准特征轴向移位并位于其后方,所述锁定构件适于与ROV型或DIVER型的湿式插接连接器的插头前端壳体的周向凹槽配合;以及形成在所述壳体前区段的外表面中的插座精细对准特征。
插座精细对准特征可包括通孔。
插座精细对准特征还可包括安装在通孔中的键。
密封区段包括一个或更多个筒形密封件。
定位器安装区段可包括适于接收紧固件的一个或更多个孔,例如通孔,或盲孔。
孔可以包括螺纹内表面或平滑内表面。
紧固件可以包括螺钉、螺栓或销,并且内表面相应地适配。
插座壳体前区段可包括设置在朝向所述壳体前区段的后端的位置处的一个或多个流体出口。
根据本发明的第三方面,一种湿式插接连接器包括插头部分和插座部分;所述插头部分包括:根据任一前述权利要求所述的插头前端壳体、包括电气插针的插头前端主体、连接器插头安装件以及连接器插头后端壳体;所述插座部分包括:根据任一前述权利要求所述的插座前端壳体、包括电气接触件的插座前端主体、连接器插座安装件以及连接器插座后端壳体。

具体实施方式
减少与新的深水油气开发有关的总生命周期成本(包括资本支出和管理支出)的趋势意味着需要改进现有的设计、制造工艺和操作。期望海底连接器系统具有较低的成本,能够相对快速且容易地安装,并且减少维护要求,或减少在整个工作寿命期间对它们所连接的系统具有影响的干预需要。因此,需要在更长时间周期内持续工作而不退化的连接器。
通常,用于不同应用的连接器可以是单路或多路连接器。例如,4路连接器可用于输送电力,或者12路连接器可用于通过适当的海底仪器接口标准传输数据。对于模拟设备,可以是1级,对于数字串行设备,例如CANopen,可以是2级,或者在利用以太网TCP/IP的情况下,可以是3级。其他数据连接器包括光纤连接器。湿式插接的控制连接器通常具有大量的细导体插针,以便在单根控制电缆中可以容纳去往产品不同部分的多个控制信号。例如,不同设备上的多个海底传感器,例如流量传感器、温度传感器或压力传感器各自都需要具有单独的通信路径,以便可以询问、监视它们,并且如果需要,可以给致动器供能,例如打开或关闭阀,或者启动或停止泵。为了向海底设备供电,使其能够工作,例如关闭阀门或驱动泵,可能需要电力传输。湿式插接功率连接器可以具有单插针和插口布置,或者可以是多路连接器,但通常比控制或通信连接器具有更少、更大的插针。
在包括插头和插座,插座安装于已安装的设备或电缆的湿式插接海底连接器中,插接通常通过ROV(遥控潜水器)或潜水员在水下使插头与插座接触来进行。有许多连接器选项,诸如ROV型、DIVER型或STAB型的湿式插接连接器,每种连接器在主体设计和用于附属构件的接口方面都有所不同,在不了解客户全部需求的情况下,不可能构建到连接器级别。如果客户需求改变,例如连接器类型改变,则可能导致重构,因为可能无法例如将固定的ROV型连接器构造成插拔板连接器。由于此种设计所带来的限制,更改可能是昂贵的,并影响交付进度以及产品成本。
通常,如图1a、1b、2a、2b、3a、3b所例示的,存在三种主要类型的湿式插接系统,即ROV型插接、STAB型插接或DIVER型插接。如图1a所示,湿式插接连接器插头1(在本例中是ROV飞线插头)包括具有成形前端或牛鼻状倒圆(bullnose)结构的插头主体2,插头主体2在本例中实际上是一对背靠背的截头锥体以及串联的第三锥体。成对的这两个截头锥体的最大直径彼此相邻,从而形成牛鼻状倒圆结构表面3,并在横跨接合处的位置具有平滑的过渡。一个锥体的最小直径限定了插头前端的前表面4,另一锥体的最小直径限定了主体中径向凹槽5或凹口的一侧,该径向凹槽5或凹口的另一侧由第三锥体限定,第三锥体的最小直径与限定凹槽5的该另一锥体的最小直径相邻。在凹槽的后方,直径扩大,从而插头主体的后端6具有基本均匀的圆周。卡环7安装在插头主体上朝向插头主体后端6的后部的位置。在其后面安装有锁定指示器8和前板9,以及更靠近手柄11的相邻背壳10。
图1b示出了对应的插座14(通常已经安装在水下),其具有在水下设备(未示出)内的背壳15和将插座安装于设备的安装凸缘16。设有定向指示器18的ROV捕获锥体或护罩17在插座前端21的内表面上的导入倒角19上将插头引导到插座中。插座后端22保持在安装凸缘16中。从图1b的剖开截面可以看出,键槽20设在插座前端21的内表面中,与定向指示器18对齐,以容纳在插头主体后端6的外表面上形成的键12。捕获护罩17、牛鼻状倒圆表面5和导入倒角提供了粗略对准。键12和键槽20提供精细对准。
图2a例示了STAB型插接插头29的示例。在STAB型插接实例中,插头主体32的前端30包括从插头的前面33开始的导入倒角31。插头主体32沿其大部分长度具有基本恒定的直径。在插头主体32的后端34处,设有安装凸缘35,以使插头与插拔板(未示出)配合。在安装凸缘后面是插头的背壳36。对应的插座37如图2b所示。在插座主体39的前端38,在插座的内表面上,设有导入倒角40以引导插头前端30,并且在该倒角后面形成有键槽41,以容纳在插头主体32上形成的键45。
图3a示出了DIVER型插接插头50的示例。在插头主体52的前端51处设有导入倒角。除此之外,插头主体的直径沿其长度基本一致。在插头主体52的后端54处安装有锁紧机构55。在锁紧机构后面,设有背壳56。在DIVER型插接插座60中,在插座主体64的前端63处,在内表面上设有导入倒角61,并且形成有键槽62。在插接过程中,形成在插头表面上并从插头表面突出的键65与键槽62配合以进行精细对准。安装板68设在插座主体64的后端上,且在其后面设有插座背壳69。插座60上的锁紧机构66与插头上的锁紧机构55配合,以在插接时将插头和插座锁紧在一起。
到目前为止,通过在维持足够库存以满足订单和避免库存过剩(如果对零件设计进行必要的更改,那么库存过剩可能导致大量部件需要返工)之间找到平衡,海底连接器系统的供应商在以降低的成本生产提供相同或更好的操作能力的连接器方面面临的成本压力已经在很大程度上得以解决。由于有多种连接器类型可供选择,并且有多种插接方法,例如上述ROV型、DIVER型和STAB型类型,因此通过将连接器主体和附属构件的库存水平保持在相对较低的水平来将管理费用保持为最小,但结果是由于每批制造量小,从而难以降低每个零件的制造成本。如上所述,各类型的湿式插接连接器即ROV型、STAB型和DIVER型具有不同的主体和在这些主体上的不同部分。例如,锁定指示器8设于ROV体6上,以便可以远程检查插接的完整性。然而,在插拔板上不需要锁定构件,因为该类型的插接不能仅部分插接,因为连接器在插拔板上以正确的高度定位,因此当板插接时,连接器就完全插接。在DIVER型插接的情况下,插头主体具有螺纹环以锁紧于插座,因为对于12路的变型而言,累积的弹簧力使其更难以ROV那样的方式用手进行插接。控制解除插接,以便潜水员在操作期间不会受伤也是很重要的。螺纹环使插接并控制解除插接更容易。ROV型和STAB型插接不需要螺纹环,因为ROV能够以更大的力量进行插接,并且在解除插接期间对人员而言没有风险。STAB型插接和解除插接是通过板结合来控制的。板固定在一起,且此后连接器不能移动,直到板被分开。组成各种类型插接体的构件的所有这些不同变型导致库存所有构件以涵盖所有选项的成本很高。
本发明旨在降低成本和库存水平,以及简化供应链。这个问题是通过将所有需要的特征并入一个单一的主体中来解决的,该主体可以由任何插接类型使用。如根据以下描述可以更好地理解的那样,提供了一种用于插头和插座的通用接口体,该接口体具有用于所有插接类型的单个前端以及相同的壳体主体形式或金属制品。如果需要,可以通过向标准体添加特征来定制该通用接口。这在图4a和4b的示例中例示出。图4a中例示了根据本发明的标准插头前端。插头70包括牛鼻状倒圆结构71形式的粗略对准特征。牛鼻状倒圆结构包括一系列的三个截头锥体,第一锥体和第三锥体包括基本全等的面120、122,第一锥体和第二锥体在它们的最大直径124处连结,并且第二锥体和第三锥体在它们的最小直径123处连结。除了在插头主体75的前区段72中的牛鼻状倒圆结构71,在插头主体的后区段73中还有安装键定位器74。牛鼻状倒圆结构71朝插头前端72的前表面76并且朝牛鼻状倒圆结构后面的凹槽77逐渐变细。在插头插入插座中时,牛鼻状倒圆结构提供粗略对准。可通过在插头主体75的外表面中形成的键槽78来提供精细对准。一个或更多个水端口79设置在主体中,位于朝向主体的后端73的位置。图4b例示了对应的插座80,其中插座主体81包括前区段86和后区段88。在前区段中,在前面的内表面上设置有导入倒角83以引导插头前端。进一步进入插座主体81中,形成有卡环凹槽84,并且在例如需要ROV型和DIVER型插接时,卡环91安装在凹槽中,以在插入插头时与插头的牛鼻状倒圆结构后面的凹槽锁定。在插座前部86中形成开口90,在插接期间,键82可穿过该开口90插入以与插头的键槽78配合。在朝向插座主体81的前区段86的后部的位置,设置有水端口,以允许在插接期间通过插头70进入插座之中的运动将水挤出。在插座的后区段88中,形成安装键位置87以允许根据应用,即ROV型、STAB型或DIVER型类型插接,附接合适的安装件。
因此,该设计提供了标准化的插头前端70和插座前端80,它们适于构造成不同的插接类型。这种单个插头和插座主体结合了任何插接类型所需的特征,而不是具有类型特定主体和类型特定特征的常规布置。以前仅用于ROV插接的牛鼻状倒圆特征71作为用于所有三种连接器类型的标准提供,就像安装锁定构件一样,其以前并不用于STAB型插接。作为标准,提供键和键槽、以及朝向插头主体以及插座主体中每一者的后端的安装位置。对于STAB型插接,在装配期间,锁定构件不会进行配合,因为它并不被需要,尽管标准化的壳体能够带有锁定构件。这避免了用于STAB型插接的部件数量的不必要增加。针对所有的插接类型,凹槽,开口和螺钉都放置在相同的特定位置。可以标准化主体各部分的直径,而不是DIVER型、STAB型以及ROV型都有特定的主体直径。虽然制造的某些方面的成本可能会增加,但这种标准化允许在类型特定的主体中所不可能实现的经济规模,从而使得所有插接类型的总体成本降低。
连接器通常包括适用于海底应用的耐腐蚀合金,诸如不锈钢、超级双相不锈钢或钛。钛是其中最昂贵的。超级双相不锈钢具有比不锈钢大的机械强度,因此相对于不锈钢连接器或塑料连接器,其壁厚可以减少。通常,将合金机加工成所需的形状,因为构件有着紧密的公差,这可以通过机加工来实现而不需要二次步骤,以及与二次步骤相关的延迟和成本。铸造等方法需要二次操作来使零件达到所需的规格,这增加了制造过程成本,而这些成本只能通过大批量产品收回。与一般工程产品相比,适合在水下使用的构件的产量相对较低。
对于插头和插座二者,后端也都可以标准化。如图4a和4b所例示的,密封件89设在插头后端,且密封件92设置在插座后端。例如,这些密封件可以是具有足够厚的壁以承受全部压差的密封件。如果需要,使用安装键以允许将安装件嵌合在插头或插座的主体与密封件之间。通常,不同的插接类型具有不同凸缘,具有不同类型的密封件,不同形状的凸缘和不同的接口。标准化主体允许使用相同的连接定位器即安装键74、87连结任何类型的凸缘,并且对于使用舱壁安装件的情况,不再需要在主体中加工一体凸缘。在使用顺应性安装件的情况下,通常安装件针对插头沿一个方向嵌合,并且针对插座沿相反反向嵌合,并具有标记,但这可能导致安装错误。现在安装件本身是标准化的,能够始终以相同的方式安装这些安装件,因而减少了装配中的错误。通常,对于安装于舱壁的连接器,背壳使用面密封件和筒形密封件相对于插头或插座密封,但现在可以设有两个筒形密封件来处理全压差,或者如果全压差不存在问题,则设置仅一个密封件。
图5a和5b更全面地例示了ROV飞线插头连接器108和ROV舱壁插座连接器109的示例,其以本发明的插头70和插座壳体80为背景。ROV手柄连接于接收电缆或软管113的ROV飞线后端组件115,电缆或软管113连接至具有ROV插头附属件117的可选的安装区段111,并穿过插头前端主体110,插头前端主体110具有数据接触件12和功率接触件6以从插座接收对应的数据和功率插针。可选地,例如,如果没有要添加的附属件,或者如果这些附属件可以直接安装于前端壳体主体,那么后端115和插头前端主体110可以在没有可选的安装区段的情况下直接连接。这进一步减少了部件数量和制造步骤,从而降低了成本。对应的ROV舱壁插座连接器80包括在前区段中的ROV插座附属件118和在安装部分112后面的舱壁后端116。从电缆终端114进入后端116中的导体与插座主体(未示出)中的导体插针连接。当插接时,插座插针和插头接触件电接触。
图6例示了使用本发明的标准化插头和插座壳体组装湿式插接连接器的方法。在第一步骤中,确定所需的插接类型,例如ROV型、DIVER型或STAB型插接,并从库存中选择100标准插头和插座壳体70、80。插头前端主体110和用于所选插接类型的适当安装件111嵌合101到插头壳体中。例如,在通孔87中使用螺钉、螺栓或销,将插座主体(未示出)和用于所选插接类型的适当安装件(112)嵌合102到插座壳体中。在一些安装板中,特征74用于在安装件中定位连接器。该孔的后面是无头螺钉孔,通常是盲孔,在本例中是四个无头螺钉孔。背壳等可以使用无头螺钉固定于主体,而安装件通常固定在背壳与定位孔74前方的连接器的凸起部分之间。软管或电缆(113,114)中的电导体连接103于插头主体和插座主体中每一者的背面,并且后端壳体(115,116)嵌合于104插头壳体和插座壳体中每一者的密封区段中的密封件89,92。
通过提供通用接口,并将ROV、插拔板和DIVER型插接连接器的特征组合到一个连接器壳体中,可以购买比以前的数量多得多的构件。通过购买更多数量的部件,可以满足价格突破,并降低整体连接器成本。通过为连接器机身提供标准接口,可以更容易适应变化,并减少对交货期的影响。对机身的单次更改不再需要对多个组件、图纸和相关文档进行更新。
进一步的简化是选择连接器尺寸以容纳最大数量的接触件,通常为12个接触件,而非具有不同尺寸的系列变型,例如4路或7路这种比12路选项更小的主体。只使用应用中所需数量的接触件,但各壳体可以容纳适合用于最大接触件数量的尺寸的主体。可以选择附属构件以嵌合于标准主体,诸如用于ROV连接器的锁定指示器或ROV锥体和飞线背壳,或用于STAB型连接器的插拔安装板,使得主体能够以与现有连接器类型中的任一种相同的方式构造。通过将前端组件的数量减少到所需的最低限度,可以储存更多数量的连接器主体金属制品,这降低了每个项目的材料成本。通过减少变化并标准化整个产品范围的前端,从而通过简化工艺和优化治具和夹具来缩短交货期。
