Definitions
- the invention relates to a foundation according to the preamble of Claim 1.
- Such foundations are known, inter alia from EP A 1389581 .
- the disadvantage of the known foundations is that mooring of the ship to the device placed in the sea is impeded by waves and currents occurring in the sea, in particular owing to the fact that the ship remains subject to the currents in the sea after it has moored. In practice, this means that the devices can be reached by a ship only on a limited number of days per year, so that carrying out preventive maintenance and repairs is seriously hampered.
- the foundation is designed according to Claim 1.
- Approaching the device placed in the sea with the ship and sailing through an underwater first opening in the interior space means that the ship is not subject, or is less subject, to movements and forces arising from wave action and currents. As a result of this, it is possible to moor at the construction on a greater number of days per year.
- the foundation is designed according to Claim 2.
- the utility part has a simple design.
- the foundation is designed according to Claim 3. As a result of this, the ship can sail into the interior space in a simple vertical rising movement.
- the foundation is designed according to Claim 4. As a result of this, water is prevented from flowing through the first opening as a consequence of changing height of the water level in the interior space while the ship is sailing in, so that approaching the first opening and passing through it to the inside becomes easier.
- the foundation is designed according to Claim 5. As a result of this, the changes in the water level inside the interior space are limited, with the result that currents through the first and/or second opening are limited further.
- the foundation is designed according to Claim 6.
- the foundation is designed according to Claim 7.
- the foundation is designed according to Claim 8. As a result of this, maintenance staff can be taken easily and quickly to a device on which maintenance has to be carried out.
- the foundation is designed according to Claim 9. As a result of this, persons and materials can easily be flown in and then transported by ship to a device.
- the foundation is designed according to Claim 10.
- the ship can be raised out of the water. As a result of this, waves no longer have any effect on the movements of the ship, and maintenance can be carried out on the ship if necessary.
- the foundation is designed according to Claim 11. As a result of this, the ship is protected from damage during the vertical movement to the water level.
- the foundation is designed according to Claim 12. As a result of this, it is possible further to damp or to avoid the wave action in the interior space under water, so that loading and unloading of the ship is easily possible.
- Figure 1 shows a number of wind turbines with a mast 1, a nacelle 2, and one or more vanes 3.
- the wind turbines shown have vanes 3 that rotate about a horizontal axis.
- Figure 1 shows twelve wind turbines, but in practice scores of wind turbines or more are placed together.
- a maintenance work area 5 is placed on a foundation 4 near the wind turbines.
- the maintenance work area 5 is equipped with a helicopter deck 6 and crane 7 for lifting parts into and out of the work area.
- Such a maintenance work area 5 can also be provided with various other facilities for transportation of persons and equipment. It will be clear that, instead of a maintenance work area 5 placed on a separate foundation 4, it is also possible to connect the maintenance work area 5 to or fix it on the mast 1 of one of the wind turbines.
- Figure 2 shows a facility for transportation of persons and equipment to a wind generator placed in the sea, having a tubular housing 15 with an axis 16. Said facility can be used both for the maintenance work area 5 and for the wind turbines.
- the tubular housing 15 is fixed on a seabed 26 and extends up to above a water level 14. In another embodiment (not shown) the tubular housing 15 extends from above the water level 14, and the tubular housing 15 ends some distance below the water level 14. In that case three or more supporting legs, which rest on the seabed 26, are provided on the outside of the tubular housing 15.
- the tubular housing 15 encloses an interior space 13.
- a jetty 9 is placed in the part of the interior space 13 lying above the water level 14, from which jetty a ship 23 can be boarded.
- a bottom opening 17 is provided in the tubular housing 15 below the water level.
- a flange 18 is provided around the opening 17. In order to damp the waves in the interior space 13, the bottom opening 17 can be closed by a hatch 19, if desired.
- the hatch 19 can possibly be designed in such a way that the bottom opening 17 can be closed in a more or less watertight manner, so that as and when circumstances arise, for example for maintenance, the water level in the interior space 13 can be lowered or the interior space 13 can be pumped out completely.
- the bottom opening 17 is provided at a depth under water that is such that there is no longer any wave movement taking place in front of the opening.
- the opening 17 is preferably more than 10 metres below the water level 14. This makes it possible to take a ship 23 sailing under water in front of the opening 17 and to sail it in through the opening 17, even if there are already waves at the water level 14 that would impede direct mooring at the construction.
- the outer housing 15 does not extend all the way to the seabed 26, but extends to, for example, ten to twenty metres below the water level 14, a different construction is possible. It can be a construction in which the more or less horizontal underside of the outer housing 15 can form the opening 17. In order to take the ship 23 into the interior space 13, it is only necessary then to take the ship 23 below the opening 17 and subsequently allow it to rise in the outer housing 15.
- the change in the water level 14 can be reduced by closing off the interior space 13 in an airtight manner, so that when the water level 14 rises the air pressure in the interior space rises, and when the water level 13 falls the air pressure in the interior space falls. This brings the highest and the lowest water levels closer together.
- the currents through the bottom opening 17 can be reduced by providing one or more top openings 27 above the bottom opening 17. These openings may be closed by a hatch 28, if desired.
- top openings 27 By making the top openings 27 sufficiently large, it is ensured that all the water needed to enable the wave movement occurring outside the tubular housing 15 to occur also in the interior space 13 can flow towards the interior space 13, without currents occurring through the bottom opening 17. This makes it easier to sail the ship 23 through the bottom opening 17.
- the ship 23 is made watertight in the known manner and is provided with ballast tanks (not shown), so that it can sail floating under water.
- Propellers 21 are provided on the outside of the hull, for propulsion, steering and moving up and down.
- Windows 25 are provided in the hull, and on the top side there is a hatch 24 through which crew and freight can be placed in the ship 23.
- the ship 23 is also provided with spring-loaded arms 20, which can interact with the guide rail 8, which is provided parallel to the axis 16 and ensures that the ship 23 does not collide with the outer housing 15.
- the ship 23 also has hoisting eyes 22, which are equipped to connect easily, and preferably automatically, to the hooks 10 of the winches 11. By means of the winches 11, the ship can be moved up and down quickly in the direction of the axis 16, so that submerging of the ship 23 and coming back up above water can be achieved simply and quickly.
- the use of the ship 23 that sails under water means that persons and equipment can be transported between the maintenance area 5 and the wind turbines without experiencing a great deal of hindrance from the waves and other weather conditions.
- the construction placed in the sea is in the form of a tubular housing 15 which is placed on and/or partially in the seabed 16.
- the interior space 13 with the various openings and facilities can be designed in another way if desired.
- the interior space 13 can be produced at water level 14 as the underside of the mast 1 of the wind turbine.
- the interior space 13 can also form part of a foundation on which the mast 1 is placed.
- Another embodiment can be that the interior space 13 extends on for some distance under water as the cylindrical underside of the mast 1, and that a foundation fixed on the seabed 26 is fixed under water on the cylindrical underside. This foundation can then possibly be designed as supporting legs extending in three or more directions.

Abstract
Foundation for a device placed in the sea, such as, inter alia, a wind generator, which foundation comprises a bottom part placed on the bottom and a utility part supported by the bottom part, which utility part projects above the water level and comprises an interior space situated under water and having an opening situated under water, for transporting goods from a ship equipped for transportation under water. According to the invention, the opening situated under water has dimensions that are such that the ship can sail into the interior space through the opening situated under water and can moor in the interior space.
Description
- The invention relates to a foundation according to the preamble of
Claim 1. Such foundations are known, inter alia fromEP A 1389581 . The disadvantage of the known foundations is that mooring of the ship to the device placed in the sea is impeded by waves and currents occurring in the sea, in particular owing to the fact that the ship remains subject to the currents in the sea after it has moored. In practice, this means that the devices can be reached by a ship only on a limited number of days per year, so that carrying out preventive maintenance and repairs is seriously hampered. - In order to avoid this disadvantage, the foundation is designed according to
Claim 1. Approaching the device placed in the sea with the ship and sailing through an underwater first opening in the interior space means that the ship is not subject, or is less subject, to movements and forces arising from wave action and currents. As a result of this, it is possible to moor at the construction on a greater number of days per year. - According to an exemplary embodiment, the foundation is designed according to
Claim 2. As a result of this, the utility part has a simple design. - According to an exemplary embodiment, the foundation is designed according to
Claim 3. As a result of this, the ship can sail into the interior space in a simple vertical rising movement. - According to an exemplary embodiment, the foundation is designed according to Claim 4. As a result of this, water is prevented from flowing through the first opening as a consequence of changing height of the water level in the interior space while the ship is sailing in, so that approaching the first opening and passing through it to the inside becomes easier.
- According to an exemplary embodiment, the foundation is designed according to
Claim 5. As a result of this, the changes in the water level inside the interior space are limited, with the result that currents through the first and/or second opening are limited further. - According to an exemplary embodiment, the foundation is designed according to Claim 6. As a result of this, the effect of waves while the ship is sailing in through the first opening is so little that unless there are exceptional weather conditions the device can always be approached.
- According to an exemplary embodiment, the foundation is designed according to Claim 7. By making wind turbines easier to reach with a ship, maintenance and repairs can always be carried out on time, so that the profitable use of such turbines is increased.
- According to an exemplary embodiment, the foundation is designed according to
Claim 8. As a result of this, maintenance staff can be taken easily and quickly to a device on which maintenance has to be carried out. - According to an exemplary embodiment, the foundation is designed according to Claim 9. As a result of this, persons and materials can easily be flown in and then transported by ship to a device.
- According to an exemplary embodiment, the foundation is designed according to
Claim 10. In the case of this embodiment the ship can be raised out of the water. As a result of this, waves no longer have any effect on the movements of the ship, and maintenance can be carried out on the ship if necessary. - According to an exemplary embodiment, the foundation is designed according to
Claim 11. As a result of this, the ship is protected from damage during the vertical movement to the water level. - According to an exemplary embodiment, the foundation is designed according to
Claim 12. As a result of this, it is possible further to damp or to avoid the wave action in the interior space under water, so that loading and unloading of the ship is easily possible. - The invention is explained below on the basis of an exemplary embodiment with reference to a drawing. In the drawing:
-
Figure 1 shows a perspective view of an area with wind generators placed in the sea; and -
Figure 2 shows a section of a foundation of a wind generator placed in the sea, with a ship that can sail into the foundation. -
Figure 1 shows a number of wind turbines with amast 1, anacelle 2, and one ormore vanes 3. The wind turbines shown havevanes 3 that rotate about a horizontal axis. There are a number of wind turbines placed together in one area, said wind turbines preferably being constructed of the same parts as far as possible, so that maintenance and repairs can be carried out as efficiently as possible.Figure 1 shows twelve wind turbines, but in practice scores of wind turbines or more are placed together. - For maintenance and repairs, a
maintenance work area 5 is placed on a foundation 4 near the wind turbines. In the embodiment shown, themaintenance work area 5 is equipped with a helicopter deck 6 and crane 7 for lifting parts into and out of the work area. Such amaintenance work area 5 can also be provided with various other facilities for transportation of persons and equipment. It will be clear that, instead of amaintenance work area 5 placed on a separate foundation 4, it is also possible to connect themaintenance work area 5 to or fix it on themast 1 of one of the wind turbines. -
Figure 2 shows a facility for transportation of persons and equipment to a wind generator placed in the sea, having atubular housing 15 with anaxis 16. Said facility can be used both for themaintenance work area 5 and for the wind turbines. Thetubular housing 15 is fixed on aseabed 26 and extends up to above awater level 14. In another embodiment (not shown) thetubular housing 15 extends from above thewater level 14, and thetubular housing 15 ends some distance below thewater level 14. In that case three or more supporting legs, which rest on theseabed 26, are provided on the outside of thetubular housing 15. - The
tubular housing 15 encloses aninterior space 13. A jetty 9 is placed in the part of theinterior space 13 lying above thewater level 14, from which jetty aship 23 can be boarded. There is also a hoisting device with a hoistingbeam 12, one ormore winches 11, and ahook 10 for raising theship 23 above thewater level 14. Abottom opening 17 is provided in thetubular housing 15 below the water level. For reinforcement, aflange 18 is provided around theopening 17. In order to damp the waves in theinterior space 13, thebottom opening 17 can be closed by ahatch 19, if desired. Thehatch 19 can possibly be designed in such a way that the bottom opening 17 can be closed in a more or less watertight manner, so that as and when circumstances arise, for example for maintenance, the water level in theinterior space 13 can be lowered or theinterior space 13 can be pumped out completely. The bottom opening 17 is provided at a depth under water that is such that there is no longer any wave movement taking place in front of the opening. The opening 17 is preferably more than 10 metres below thewater level 14. This makes it possible to take aship 23 sailing under water in front of theopening 17 and to sail it in through the opening 17, even if there are already waves at thewater level 14 that would impede direct mooring at the construction. - It will be clear to the person skilled in the art that in the embodiment described above, in which the
outer housing 15 does not extend all the way to theseabed 26, but extends to, for example, ten to twenty metres below thewater level 14, a different construction is possible. It can be a construction in which the more or less horizontal underside of theouter housing 15 can form theopening 17. In order to take theship 23 into theinterior space 13, it is only necessary then to take theship 23 below the opening 17 and subsequently allow it to rise in theouter housing 15. - In order to ensure that the changing
water level 14 in theinterior space 13, resulting from waves outside thetubular housing 15, does not result in strong currents through the bottom opening 17, two measures can be taken. First, the change in thewater level 14 can be reduced by closing off theinterior space 13 in an airtight manner, so that when thewater level 14 rises the air pressure in the interior space rises, and when thewater level 13 falls the air pressure in the interior space falls. This brings the highest and the lowest water levels closer together. Secondly, the currents through thebottom opening 17 can be reduced by providing one or moretop openings 27 above the bottom opening 17. These openings may be closed by ahatch 28, if desired. By making thetop openings 27 sufficiently large, it is ensured that all the water needed to enable the wave movement occurring outside thetubular housing 15 to occur also in theinterior space 13 can flow towards theinterior space 13, without currents occurring through thebottom opening 17. This makes it easier to sail theship 23 through thebottom opening 17. - The
ship 23 is made watertight in the known manner and is provided with ballast tanks (not shown), so that it can sail floating under water.Propellers 21 are provided on the outside of the hull, for propulsion, steering and moving up and down.Windows 25 are provided in the hull, and on the top side there is ahatch 24 through which crew and freight can be placed in theship 23. There are also the usual means for permitting manoeuvring with the ship and for enabling sailing from the one construction placed in the water to the other. - On the outside, the
ship 23 is also provided with spring-loadedarms 20, which can interact with theguide rail 8, which is provided parallel to theaxis 16 and ensures that theship 23 does not collide with theouter housing 15. - The
ship 23 also has hoistingeyes 22, which are equipped to connect easily, and preferably automatically, to thehooks 10 of thewinches 11. By means of thewinches 11, the ship can be moved up and down quickly in the direction of theaxis 16, so that submerging of theship 23 and coming back up above water can be achieved simply and quickly. - The use of the
ship 23 that sails under water means that persons and equipment can be transported between themaintenance area 5 and the wind turbines without experiencing a great deal of hindrance from the waves and other weather conditions. - In
Figure 2 described above the construction placed in the sea is in the form of atubular housing 15 which is placed on and/or partially in theseabed 16. Theinterior space 13 with the various openings and facilities can be designed in another way if desired. Theinterior space 13 can be produced atwater level 14 as the underside of themast 1 of the wind turbine. Theinterior space 13 can also form part of a foundation on which themast 1 is placed. Another embodiment can be that theinterior space 13 extends on for some distance under water as the cylindrical underside of themast 1, and that a foundation fixed on theseabed 26 is fixed under water on the cylindrical underside. This foundation can then possibly be designed as supporting legs extending in three or more directions.
