Definitions

  • the invention generally relates to a support structure for industrial equipment, which can be used on the one hand as a floating barge for transporting this industrial equipment from its place of manufacture to its site of use, and on the other hand foundation in the ground when these equipments are installed on their site of use.
  • the main object of the present invention is precisely to avoid the aforementioned drawbacks while simplifying and considerably reducing the cost price of such a structure.
  • the structure according to the invention is much lighter than known structures of the same type, and it also has a much lower cost price, for the same material.
  • this structure 10 consists essentially of a network of horizontal rigid beams 12, which intersect each other perpendicularly, and which define between them the rectangular compartments 13.
  • These beams 12 have a section transverse substantially in inverted T, comprising a vertical core and a bottom sole 14.
  • the adjacent compartments 13, defined by the longitudinal and transverse powders 12, are sealed in their upper part by a thin plate 16 of suitable material, while their lower part or their bottom remains open.
  • the structure 10 thus formed is therefore of the cellular type, comprising a very large number of adjacent compartments 13, isolated from each other, sealed in their upper part by the thin plate 16, and which are open bottom.
  • the upper plate 16 only serves as a sealing skin.
  • the compartments 13 have dimensions of the order of 3 x 6 m
  • the upper thin plate 16 has a thickness of the order of 0 , 7 to 1 mm, when it is made of steel.
  • the structure 10 according to the invention therefore essentially differs from the structures known from the prior art in that it does not include a bottom and in that it has a much less weight for the same material. It can be generally accepted that the weights, and the cost prices, of a structure according to the invention and of a structure according to the prior art are in a ratio of 1: 4 or 1: 3.
  • FIGs 3 and 4 there is shown schematically the means used according to the invention for adjusting in the compartments 13, when the structure is used in floating barge, the hydrostatic thrust as a function of the load supported at the various compartments .
  • the hydrostatic thrust exerted on a compartmentalized or alveolar structure must be proportional to the load at each point of the structure. At the point where a maximum load is applied, the hydrostatic thrust must be maximum; in a place with no load, the hydrostatic thrust must be zero, and in a place with a medium load, the hydrostatic thrust must be average.
  • the compartments 13 do not include a bottom, and the hydros- thrust is adjusted. static in each compartment, allowing water to penetrate to a certain height inside these compartments.
  • This characteristic of the invention is shown schematically in Figure 3.
  • the structure 10 is shown floating on a body of water.
  • the compartments 13a, 13c, 13d and 13e are shown provided with means making selectively communicate the interior of these compartments with the external atmosphere.
  • These means consist of tubes 17 which pass tightly through the upper thin plate 16. Each of these tubes extends over a certain height inside the associated compartment 13, and this height is determined as a function of the load which is supported by the structure at the level of the compartment considered.
  • the compartments 13a, 13c and 13d correspond to locations where the supported load is at an intermediate value, the heights over which the tubes 17 extend inside these compartments being substantially proportional to the supported load.
  • FIG. 5 represents an example of distribution of the 140 compartments in 13 sub-assemblies defined transversely in I, II, III, IV and V and longitudinally in A, B, C .
  • the sub-assembly II does not include dip tubes.
  • the compartments 13 of the sub-assemblies A, D and C of the other groups I, III, IV and V are all fitted with a dip tube.
  • the tubes are adjusted to the same height, and this height varies from one sub-assembly to another depending on the load supported.
  • FIGS. 6 and 7 two methods of fixing industrial equipment to the structure 10 are shown schematically.
  • An equipment 11b having a greater weight, is also carried by cradles 21 which are fixed on plates or plates 22 of load distribution, themselves fixed on the upper face of the thin plate 16, advantageously at the beams 12 or suitable reinforcements.
  • the fixing is of course done by welding.
  • the structure 10 can be made of any suitable material. In a preferred embodiment, it will be made of steel, but it can also be made of concrete, fiberglass, or different materials (one part in concrete, one other steel), etc.
  • the structure 10 is intended for example to be buried, and to constitute the foundations in the ground of the industrial equipment 11 that it supports.
  • the compartments 13 are advantageously filled with concrete or any other suitable material.
  • the concrete poured into the compartments 13 itself constituting a foundation insensitive to corrosion.
