Definitions
- the present invention carried out in collaboration with the Coflexip Company and the Laboratory of Automation and Systems Analysis, relates to a method and a device for placing in a determined relative position two elements possibly submerged in a liquid medium.
- tracking systems have been proposed using at least one acoustic transceiver integral with one of the elements to be assembled, the other element being provided with acoustic responders (British patents 1,597,378 and 2,034,471) .
- This solution makes it possible to approach the two elements to be joined to one another, but does not make it possible to ensure a sufficiently precise positioning of these elements to safely carry out the mechanical connections that certain connectors require.
- the present invention enables the precise relative positioning of two geometrical axes belonging respectively to two elements to be achieved, by a method and an apparatus of simple design, of relatively low cost and not having the drawbacks. previous devices.
- the implementation of the present invention requires a number of sensors less than that required according to patent FR-2,517,068.
- the device according to the invention allows the precise relative positioning of two geometric axes belonging respectively to two elements at least one of these elements being associated with means capable of ensuring its movement.
- This device according to the invention is characterized in that it comprises in combination at least two acoustic transceivers arranged in a first plane substantially perpendicular to one of said geometric axes, (this axis will be qualified as first axis), and transmitting towards this axis, these two transceivers being situated on a straight line which does not intersect said first axis and in that it comprises a third transceiver located outside said plane.
- the device according to the invention may comprise a fourth transceiver situated substantially in a second plane perpendicular to said first axis and passing through the third transceiver.
- the device according to the invention can be applied to the case where the element to which said first geometric axis belongs to the shape of a cylin ⁇ dre of revolution whose said first axis merges with the axis of revolution.
- the transceivers can be understood inside the space defined by the element of cylindrical shape and two planes parallel to each other, tangent to this cylinder.
- the displacement means act by the combination of displacement taking place in determined directions qualified as elementary directions
- at least two transceivers are placed so that the pLan defined by two directions carrying the shortest distance from each of said transceivers to the axis of the element to which they are transmitting, is parallel to the plane defined by two elementary directions of means of movement.
- this parallelism is to be considered when the second element is in place.
- the device according to the invention may be supplemented by other so-called tracking means allowing a first non-precise, or rough, approach of the two elements.
- these means may be such as those described in patent FR-2,517,068.
- the means of location may include:
- a first set of electrodes integral with a first of these elements and arranged in a geometric configuration making it possible to define at least one point on the axis of this element
- a second set of electrodes integral with the second element and arranged in a geometric configuration making it possible to define at least one point on the axis of this element
- a source of electric voltage one output terminal of which is electrically connected to the electrodes of one of the assemblies and the other output terminal of which is electrically connected to the electrodes of the other assembly
- the means for measuring the values of said parameter linked to the electric currents and the means for measuring the quantity characteristic of the propagation of the acoustic waves are adapted to deliver signals representative of the values taken respectively by said parameter and said quantity characteristic of the propagation of the waves. acoustic.
- the device carries automatic or non-automatic control means which, on receipt of said signals, actuate the displacement means to equalize between them the values of said parameter measured for the different electrodes and to equalize between them the values of the quantity characteristic of the propagation of the acoustic waves measured at the various transceivers.
- the present invention can be used in particular for the connection of pipes other than vertical, which does not benefit from the effect of gravity to keep the axes of the two pipes parallel. It is therefore necessary to achieve and maintain this parallelism by artificial means; at sea, and more particularly in the laying of large diameter pipes, it will most often be two overhead traveling cranes which, by means of a lifting beam, will support the section of pipe to be connected and guide it towards the end of the pipe already in place.
- the images given by the television cameras, even in relief, or the indications of the divers are powerless, when there is no longer any visibility, to restore the relative positions of the two ends to be connected.
- transceivers may be described as transducers.
- the present invention uses a limited number of acoustic sensors, these sensors emitting with a nonzero radial component relative to the axis of the element to which they are associated.
- FIG. 1 schematically represents a device for locating and detecting a position according to the invention, used to ensure the alignment of the axis of a pipe with that of an element to which the pipe must be connected during a first approach,
- FIG. 2 illustrates the arrangement of an electrical tracking network.
- FIG. 3 shows the arrangement of an acoustic tracking network used in combination with the electrical tracking network
- FIG. 5 represents an embodiment in which at least one flat plate is used which is used for the reflection of acoustic waves to carry out the approach phase
- FIG. 6 shows a device for precise positioning of the pipe according to the present invention
- FIG. 7 represents an alternative embodiment of the precise positioning device according to the present invention.
- FIGS. 8 and 9 show another use of the device according to the invention.
- FIG. 10 schematically illustrates the positioning of two circles
- Element 2 could be, for example, a pipe or an installation fixed relative to the sea bottom or resting on the bottom of the water, such as an oil well head, a submerged tank, an anifold tanker, outfall, etc.
- connection can be made either by a manipulated device from the surface - such as an overhead crane, either by means of a remote-controlled robot or manipulator 5, equipped with propulsion means ensuring its movement in the water.
- This manipulator could be, for example, of the type described in French patent 79 / 29.655 filed on December 3, 1979 and having for title "Device controllable from remote intervention on submerged structures, in particular for connection of underwater pipelines ".
- the complementary part 3 is associated with element 2 and part 4 is associated with element 1.
- L2 be the distance from point C to the circle with center 01 and L'2, the distance from point D to this same circle.
- the circle C01 corresponds substantially to the cross section of a circular tube and if two acoustic transducers, or transceivers, or transceivers are placed.
- the circle C02 can correspond substantially to the section of another tube with circular section.
- such an approximation can effectively be made to allow the positioning of the two elements. This facilitates the processing of data resulting from the measurements.
- the present invention can be used in particular 'for the connection of large diameter tubes.
- a frame 31 supports two measuring rods 24 and 25 on which are fixed respectively two transducers A1, A2 and C1, C2.
- the measurement of the distances L1, L2 and LL1, LL2, corresponds respectively to the sensors A1, C1, A2, C2, makes it possible to confuse the axes 22 and 23 before carrying out the penetration.
- the line joining A1 to C1 does not pass through axis 22. The same is true for the line joining A2 to C2.
- axes 22 and 23 can be viewed on a cathode screen: a reticle may appear, for example, the system of axes X01Y, a solid cross represents point 02 and a dotted cross point 0'2. Point 02 represents the intersection of axis 22 with a plane passing through sensors A1 and C1 perpendicular to this axis 22. The same is true for point 0'2 but considering sensors A2 and C2.
- the rods supporting the sensors are arranged 90 from each other. This is by no means limiting.
- the displacement means used to maneuver one of the elements act by the combination of displacement taking place in determined directions which will be called elementary directions of displacement and which generally are perpendicular to each other.
- first elementary direction which is the vertical direction in which the overhead crane moves
- second elementary direction which is a horizontal direction parallel to the direction of movement of the crane carriage which carries the hoist
- third direction which is that in which the bridge itself moves.
- the present invention can be used to make the connection of tubes to be buried.
- transducers C1 and C2 it is not recommended to leave the transducers C1 and C2 on the sides of the tube and we will arrange for them to be arranged preferably inside two vertical planes 26 and 27 tangent to this tube. Furthermore, the device described above may be doubled for security reasons. We therefore end up in fact with the arrangement drawn in FIG. 12.
- a first device (Fig. 11) is composed of two rods 24 and 25 arranged 90 from one another, as before, but one of these is 30 to the left and the other at 60 ° to the right of the vertical plane passing through the axis of the tube or vice versa. It is obvious that will not depart from the scope of the present invention if the two rods 24 and 25 are placed relative to one another at an angle different from 90 ° relative to the axis of the tube.
- a second device comprising two additional rods 28 and 29 can be placed, for example, symmetrically to the previous one with respect to the same vertical plane. It is then necessary to introduce an axis rotation matrix so that the horizontal and vertical movements printed on the tube result in displacements parallel to the vertical and horizontal reference axes of the display system.
