Definitions

  • the invention relates to a service ship for offshore installations according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • FR2644445 discloses a ship having a loading and / or unloading device arranged on the top side, which carries a transfer element, and a control device for minimizing the relative movement of the transfer element.
  • the device comprises a loading and unloading device attached to the ship with a transfer element, e.g. As a platform, a ladder or a web, and a control device for minimizing the relative movement of the transfer element relative to the other object.
  • a transfer element e.g. As a platform, a ladder or a web
  • a control device for minimizing the relative movement of the transfer element relative to the other object.
  • an industrial robot as a loading or unloading device, wherein the transfer element is attached to the free end of the robot arm as a support arm or formed with this connectable, the use of a serial kinematics, namely a Gelenkarmroboter possible.
  • a motion compensation in a small space and thus the use on smaller vessels is possible.
  • the ship is designed for example as a catamaran and the industrial robot is arranged on its rear.
  • the industrial robot is designed as a six-axis articulated arm robot, so that its support arm is movable about six axes and thus six degrees of freedom.
  • the support arm is movable by means of servomotors.
  • the control device is connected to the servomotors and controls them.
  • the control device is connected to a sensor unit which receives the movements of the ship and passes on corresponding signals to the control device.
  • the tower In order to ensure a certain safety distance between a tower of the wind turbine and the ship when mooring, the tower is provided with distance spurs and the ship with roller fenders.
  • the roller fenders serve as guides for the distance bollards when the ship approaches the tower.
  • the ship with the roller fenders at its rear moves against the distance bollards and thus in a defined position with a certain distance in front of a landing, such as a head of the tower of the wind turbine.
  • a service ship with stabilized transfer element which allows the safe accessibility of offshore installations, in particular offshore wind turbines, at sea.
  • the invention preferably light and small ship is docked with roller fenders to the offshore facility and rolls it up and down.
  • the lift with preferably a platform finally compensated with the stroke of the transfer element, the shaft stroke and thus compensates for the vertical movement.
  • a stabilized loading or unloading device as access system is created so that it allows a safe transfer of persons and material by swaying, even in bad weather. The service times can therefore be extended considerably. Due to the roller fenders, the ship can also be easily guided in the horizontal direction when the ship rolls up and down the distance piles of the landing stage of an offshore installation, as this does not hinder the vertical movement of the ship.
  • this access system can be built very easily. A great advantage is beyond a high reliability and high compatibility with salt water.
  • the ship may be equipped with two rigidly connected hulls, i. as a catamaran, be trained. Due to the catamaran construction rolling movements are minimal. Low pitching movements result in preferably long, slender hulls.
  • the access system preferably comprises an actively compensated loading or unloading device with automatic control and hydraulic or electric drive combined with ship-side Rollenfendern that can completely compensate for the docking the movement of the ship and at sea a safe transition from the ship to the offshore facility and back allowed.
  • the Fig. 1 to Fig. 3 show a service ship for offshore installations with at least one fuselage 1.
  • the offshore installation is for example a wind turbine or other artificial platform facility in waters away from the coast.
  • the offshore facility can also be a large ship anchoring or in motion.
  • the service ship according to the invention has, on the deck side, in particular on the rear side and / or bow side, a loading and / or unloading device 2 which carries a transfer element 3. Furthermore, the ship has a control device (not shown) for minimizing the relative movement of the transfer element 3 to a formed with Abstandspfählen 4 landing of the offshore facility. In the case of a wind energy plant, the spacer piles 4 are fastened, for example, to a standpipe 6.
  • the control device serves to keep the transfer element 3 at sea level at a constant height X, such as Fig. 1 shows.
  • the control device preferably controls three control values, since three axes, an x-axis, a y-axis and a z-axis of a positioning system are regulated, as described below.
  • the ship With roll fenders 7, the ship is positioned under motor pressure on the fixed by the Abstandspiles 4 mooring axis.
  • the ship's engines press the ship via the roller fenders 7 in a docking position on the Abstandspfählen 4, in which the ship at the Abstandspfählen 4 can roll up and down.
  • the vertical position of the ship and also the roll and tamping angles of the ship remain free and are compensated by the loading and / or unloading device 2, preferably actively balanced.
  • the horizontal position of the ship is preferably fixed by the motor pressure of the ship by means of the roller fenders 7.
  • the loading and / or unloading device 2 is how Fig. 5a and Fig. 5d show, designed as a lift with at least one column 9, on which the transfer element 3 can be raised and lowered as a boom.
  • the column 9 defines a z-axis and has a lower gimbal-mounted column bearing 10, the at least one column. 9 in two mutually orthogonal direction axes, the x-axis and the y-axis, tiltably superimposed, which form a positioning system to the mooring axis as a spatial axis of the height display.
  • control device By means of the control device is set that the column 9, ie the z-axis, during roll and pitching movements of the ship remains vertical and thus preferably parallel to the mooring axis, such as Fig. 1 shows.
  • a preferably orthogonal positioning system for mooring axis can be formed.
  • the directional axes i. the x-axis and the y-axis with a longitudinal and transverse axis of the ship.
  • the roller fenders 7 are used in particular for a distance-fixed positioning of the rear of the Abstandspfählen 4, including the roller fenders 7 are preferably arranged in pairs to form a Andockplatzes.
  • the transfer element 3 is preferably designed as a platform, which can also be telescopically extendable, such as Fig. 5 shows.
  • the tilt angles ⁇ are each in the range of 0 ° to ⁇ 15 °. Tilting around the Y-axis compensates for a tamping angle. Tilting around the x-axis compensates for a roll angle. According to Fig. 1 the roll and pitch angle is for example ⁇ 10 °.
  • the transfer element 3 can be moved vertically to compensate for the wave height by means of similar drive elements or motor with timing belt or chains.
  • the horizontal telescopic extension of the transfer element 3 is intended as an additional security measure and allows a certain fault tolerance of the system by means of a suspension function.
  • the transfer element 3 is therefore preferably a platform that is adjustable in length.
  • the drives of the drive elements 11, 12 and the lifting movement of the transfer element 3 so be controlled, the vertical column 9 remains vertical even in strong movements of the ship in the sea state and the transfer element 3 retains the same height in space.
  • the transfer element 3 then retains the same position relative to the offshore installation.
  • the aim is to largely eliminate the movements of the docking ship, so as to allow a safe transfer of people, a reloading of tools, spare parts or auxiliary materials on the offshore facility or is facilitated by this.
  • the sensor and bearing controller of the control device which detects the target position of the transfer element 3 and passes on deviations to the controller, which then takes over the control, based on known control devices that detect the ship movements via gyro techniques or gyroscopes active and as set values to the drive elements 11th , 12 for tilting the column 9 and as set values to the lifting platform for adjusting the stroke position of the transfer element 3.
  • the column bearing 10 is preferably arranged in the region of the ship's center of gravity in a ship designed, for example, as a tail feeder.
  • the lift is formed according to the described embodiment by a vertical frame which is tiltably mounted on a cross frame as a gimbal column bearing 10.
  • the loading and / or unloading device 2 is mounted at the stern of the ship.
  • the ship has for a rear-side docking roller fender 7, which are mounted on the rear side.
  • Fig. 4 shows a further embodiment of a service ship in which the loading and unloading device 2 is arranged on the bow side.
  • the roller fenders 7 are then mounted on the bow.
  • roller fenders for example, also be mounted on the side of the ship.
  • the roller fender 7 according to Fig. 1 and Fig. 4 and the loading and / or unloading device 2 be pivotally mounted to allow an optional docking of the ship rear and / or bow side and / or laterally.
