Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a cargo loading technology and more particularly to a cargo loading ship according to claims 1 to 10 and a cargo loading method maximizing a cargo cavity of a ship according to claims 11 to 13.

Background of the Invention

In general, a ship accommodation is located on a upper side of an engine room (in a 1-Island type) or a upper side of a cargo hold (in a 2-lsland type) being positioned on a center of a hull and is integrally contacted with the hull. Also, the ship accommodation includes various living facilities for sailors sailing during a long time.
The Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2010-0069982 relates to a container ship arranging an accommodation on a center thereof and having the accommodation space which is separated from an engine room section and a fuel oil tank which is located under the accommodation space. The container ship may improve a navigation bridge visibility on sailing, loading more containers than a container with a same size on upper side of a deck and doubly protecting a fuel oil tank. Also, the container ship may prevent a vibration and a noise transfer from the engine room to maintain a comfortable accommodation environment in comparison with a ship having an accommodation adjacent to the engine room section.
The Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2012-0105306 relates to a method and an apparatus for loading a container under an accommodation area of a container ship capable of arranging an accommodation area and a fuel tank in different area. The method may increase a design freedom for an optimal container ship to minimize the total number of loadable containers.
A fuel oil or other machineries (e.g., an electric wire) is arranged in an accommodation lower space and an available space exists in the accommodation lower space with a surrounding space of the accommodation so that a conventional ship is inefficient in view of a space application.
It is also known from document GB2080740 a vessel having a main deck which extends over the entire length and width of the ship and the quarters and working rooms for the crew are arranged in part below the main deck and in part, including the ship's bridge, at a height above the deck. The bridge and such rooms as the radio cabin are mounted on top of a forward gantry crane. On top of a rear gantry crane are mounted cabins for the ship's officers.
