Embodiment
Below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments, the utility model is described in further detail, those skilled in the art can more clearly understand other advantages of the present utility model and effect thus.
It should be noted that the structure that Figure of description illustrates, ratio, size etc. only in order to coordinate embodiment, more clearly understand design of the present utility model for those skilled in the art, not in order to limit protection domain of the present utility model.The adjustment of the modification of any structure, the change of proportionate relationship or size, in the situation that not affecting effect of the present utility model and object and reaching, within all should still dropping on protection domain of the present utility model.
As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2, a kind of self-elevating drilling platform measurement of air gap of the utility model device comprises a sounding rod 1, the inside of sounding rod 1 is cavity 10, the hypomere of sounding rod 1 is provided with a plurality of damping holes 11 that distribute along its length, damping hole 11 communicates with the cavity 10 of sounding rod, in the lower end of described cavity 10, be provided with a throw-in type pressure transducer 2, the wire of throw-in type pressure transducer 2 passes from the upper end of sounding rod 1.Above-mentioned sounding rod 1 is is preferably connected and composed by threaded connector 13 by multistage stainless-steel tube, when measuring range variation, can increase at any time one section, and range extension meanwhile, is convenient to harvesting no time.
The utility model in use, can sounding rod 1 be fixed on the sidewall of self-elevating drilling platform 4 by fixed support 14, insert below the water surface lower end of sounding rod 1, throw-in type pressure transducer 2 is also positioned at below the water surface, and the wire of throw-in type pressure transducer 2 passes and is connected with data processing and display device 3 platform from the upper end of sounding rod 1.Fixed support 14 can be fixed on the railing of platform, is main fixing means.On sounding rod 1, can also be fixed with a magnet 15, magnet 15 can be adsorbed on the sidewall of self-elevating drilling platform 4, plays the effect of auxiliary fixation measuring bar 1.When stormy waves is large, consider the direction of stormy waves, preferably sounding rod 1 is fixed on to the side in face of stormy waves, make magnet can be subject to the pressure producing because of stormy waves, adsorb more firmly.But in the situation that stormy waves is little, sounding rod 1 can be arranged on to the either side of self-elevating drilling platform 4, even magnet 15 can not installed yet.
In a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, a blind plate 12 is set in the lower end of sounding rod 1, with the lower end of cavity described in shutoff 10, and throw-in type pressure transducer 2 is enclosed in to the position of the top certain distance of blind plate 12, prevents from affecting measurement because of sedimentation.Blind plate 12 can stop wave the impact of sensor to be caused to possible becoming flexible, and also can eliminate the measuring error that wave stroke causes simultaneously.
In addition, when measuring, because wave is subject to spud leg obstacle, can evoke a lot of assorted waves, if these assorted waves do not carry out damping processing, by making throw-in type pressure transducer 2 measure the data of many saltus steps, cause the untrue of data, inaccurate.Therefore, the utility model arranges damping hole 11 at the hypomere of sounding rod 1, and these damping holes 11 are generally positioned under water, both the pressure of water can be passed to the throw-in type pressure transducer 2 of sounding rod 1 inside, can play damping action to unrestrained fluctuating again, reduce and impact the transient data saltus step causing.
Below measuring principle of the present utility model is described.
As shown in Figure 3, when the lower end of sounding rod 1, with vertical state, insert the water surface when following, the length Hr of whole sounding rod 1 is known; The moldeed depth of self-elevating drilling platform 4 or action Hx are also known; The length Hu that sounding rod 1 is positioned on platform deck also can certainly, also can arrange a zero point easily by measuring on sounding rod 1, makes zero point concordant with deck plane, i.e. Hu=0 while installing at every turn.
The Underwater Pressure signal that throw-in type pressure transducer 2 can sense it is delivered to data processing and display device 3, when carrying out data processing, revise pressure that density of sea water causes and the corresponding relation of the depth of water, thereby can obtain the underwater length Hs of sounding rod according to the force value of throw-in type pressure transducer 2.
According to the length Hs under water recording in real time, can calculate in real time air gap Hg=Hr-Hu-Hx-Hs so.
Data processing and display device 3 collect after Underwater Pressure signal, by software, process, and can show mxm., and minimum, and intermediate value also can curve show the real time data of air gap.
The utility model, for the needs of self-elevating drilling platform measurement of air gap, has organically combined ruler measurement and pressure transducer and has measured both advantages, makes measurement data more accurate, and whole measurement mechanism is reliable and stable, convenient and practical.The utility model not only can be for the measurement of self-elevating drilling platform air gap, also can be used for measuring SEA LEVEL VARIATION in rivers and lakes, owing to having adopted digitized measurement means, also can teletransmission data, and realize remote monitoring.
