Definitions

  • a notch for communicating between the storage section and the tension section is provided in advance in a partition flange (a split flange, a separating flange) dividing the drum into the storage section and the tension section.
  • Patent literature 2 describes a marine mooring winch drum, comprising a middle flange for shifting a rope from a rope reel side body to a mooring side body in the middle of the drum, flanges at both ends of the drum, a cut in the middle flange, and a rope handling portion, wherein the rope handling portion is bow-shaped and detachably attached to the cut end of the middle flange at the rope reel side.
  • patent literature 1 aims at effortlessly leading the rope, which has already passed through the notch of the right notched disc on the storage drum side and guided to the guiding groove, to the tension drum side.
  • JPS49-29905 discloses the preamble of claim 1.
  • the present invention has been made in consideration of the above circumstances, and has as its object to provide a shifting tool for a mooring rope easily attachable to a drum of an existing mooring winch, enabling to improve workability of a shifting operation of a mooring rope and excellent in convenience, and a labor-saving, safe mooring winch enabling to decrease needed staff and easily carry out the shifting operation of a mooring rope by including the above mentioned shifting tool for a mooring rope.
  • the outside fixing member and the guiding member be detachably connected by fitting a pin.
  • the shifting tool for a mooring rope includes the outside fixing member fixed to the outside flange on the storage section side, the partition side fixing member fixed to the partition flange, and the guiding member spanned between the outside fixing member and the partition side fixing member and moves the mooring rope, which is being wound onto the storage section along with rotation of the drum, toward the notch.
  • the shifting tool for a mooring rope improves workability since just by attaching the shifting tool for a mooring rope to an existing mooring winch and rotating a drum of the existing mooring winch, the mooring rope is easily shifted from the storage section to the tension section without depending on human power.
  • the guiding member inclines from the outside fixing member on the upstream side toward the partition side fixing member on the downstream side with respect to the winding (moving) direction of the mooring rope (inclines from the outside fixing member on the downstream side toward the partition side fixing member on the upstream side with respect to the rotating direction of the drum).
  • the mooring rope can be smoothly moved to the notch along the guiding member, and thus the shifting tool for a mooring rope is excellent in stability of the shifting behavior of a mooring rope.
  • the guiding member has a curvature radius 0.9 to 1.3 times as large as the radius of each of the outside flanges when viewing the drum in the axial direction, when the mooring rope is moving along the guiding member, the mooring rope hardly interferes with a part of the mooring rope already wound onto the storage section, and thus the shifting tool for a mooring rope improves the certainty of the shifting behavior of a mooring rope.
  • the mooring winch according to the second aspect of the present invention can easily (automatically) carry out the shifting operation of a mooring rope with no need for human power by detachably attaching the shifting tool for a mooring rope according to the first aspect of the present invention to the mooring winch, and thus the mooring winch is excellent in terms of labor saving and safety. Also, since the shifting tool for a mooring rope can be easily attached and detached, except when shifting the mooring rope, the shifting tool for a mooring rope will not be an obstruction to movement of winding up and paying out the mooring rope in the storage section, and thus the mooring winch has an excellent operability.
  • the mooring winch 11 is mainly installed on a ship such as a crude oil tanker, and used for a mooring operation.
  • the mooring winch 11, which is a common mooring winch, has a structure where two drums 13 each having outside flanges 12 on both sides are symmetrically arranged as shown in Fig. 1 , and by a driving unit 16 composed of a driving motor 14 and a speed reducer 15 in the central part of the drum, each of the drums 13 is rotated, and mooring ropes 20 are wound up and paid out.
  • the partition side fixing member 26 is attached on a downstream side of one of the notches 24 with respect to a moving (winding) direction of the mooring rope 20 (on an upstream side of the notch 24 with respect to rotation of the drum 13).
  • This makes it possible to move the mooring rope 20 wound onto the storage section 22 toward the partition flange 21 (in the direction indicated by an arrow c in Fig. 2B ) along the guiding member 27, and guide the mooring rope 20 to the notch 24 by rotating the drum 13 in the direction indicated by the arrow a in Fig. 2A while keeping the shifting tool for a mooring rope 10 attached.
  • the mooring rope 20 subsequently passes through the notch 24, is automatically shifted from the storage section 22 to the tension section 23, is wound onto the tension section 23, and can generate a predetermined tension.
  • stainless steel which is light in weight, excellent in strength, and resistant to rust, is preferably used, but not limited to this.
  • a metal such as iron or the like and other alloys with a rust-preventive treatment applied to the surface may be used.
  • the mooring rope 20 being wound onto the storage section 22 moves from a lower side to an upper side on the right side of the guiding member 27 (on the partition flange 21 side) as indicated by the arrow c in Fig. 2B , and a force is applied from the mooring rope 20 in a direction of pressing the guiding member 27 toward the outside flange 12.
  • the fitting pin 36 which is provided in parallel to the rotation central axis of the drum 13, will not come off from the fitting hole 37, and the guiding member 27 is firmly supported by the outside fixing member 25.
  • the partition side fixing member 26 includes a clamping member 41 having a U-shaped cross-section, and the clamping member 41 is composed of a pair of pinching pieces 39 and 40 that are oppositely disposed with a space therebetween.
  • a clamping screw 42 is screwed so as to freely move back and forth.
  • the clamping screw 42 has an operating handle 43 on its head, for rotating the clamping screw 42.
  • the clamping member 41 and an end part of the guiding member 27 are connected and fixed by welding or the like and thus the partition side fixing member 26 and guiding member 27 are integrated.
  • an abutting member 44 for abutting on an end surface of an upper end side of the notch 24 is provided on an end part on the guiding member 27 side of the clamping member 41.
  • the clamping member 41 will not move even if a force acting to rotate the guiding member 27 in an opposite circumferential direction to the rotating direction of the drum 13 (the direction indicated by the arrow a in Fig. 2A ) is applied from the mooring rope 20. Therefore, the guiding member 27 is held at a predetermined position, and the mooring rope 20 can be surely guided to the notch 24.
  • the partition side fixing member 26 and the guiding member 27 can be detached from the drum 13 while leaving only the outside fixing member 25 attached by turning the guiding member 27 together with the partition side fixing member 26 around the fitting pin 36 toward outside the drum 13, and pulling out the fitting pin 36 from the fitting hole 37 of the outside fixing member 25 after loosening the clamping screw 42 and unfixing the partition side fixing member 26. Even if leaving the outside fixing member 25 attached to the outside flange 12, there is no hindrance to winding up and paying out the mooring rope 20, and besides, this makes an attaching operation of the guiding member 27 simpler from the next time.
  • Figs. 5A and 5B the mooring rope 20 is pulled in the direction indicated by an arrow b as the drum 13 rotates in the direction indicated by an arrow a in Fig. 5A , and the mooring rope 20 is wound from the top side of the drum 13. This is referred to as overwound.
  • the modification shown in Figs. 5A and 5B is upside down with respect to Figs. 2A and 2B (the positions of the notches 24 of the partition flange 21 are each shifted by 90 degrees), and the rotating direction of the drum 13 is reversed with respect to Figs. 2A and 2B .
  • the attaching direction of the shifting tool for a mooring rope 10 is changed.
  • the structure of the shifting tool for a mooring rope 10 is the same as that in Figs. 2A and 2B .
  • the modification and the embodiment are also the same in that the partition side fixing member 26 is attached on the downstream side of one of the notches 24 with respect to the moving direction of the mooring rope 20 (on the upstream side of the notch 24 with respect to the rotation of the drum 13).
  • the partition side fixing member 26 is attached on the downstream side of one of the notches 24 with respect to the moving direction of the mooring rope 20 (on the upstream side of the notch 24 with respect to the rotation of the drum 13).
  • the shifting tool for a mooring rope is for guiding the mooring rope being wound onto the storage section to one of the notches when shifting the mooring rope from the storage section to the tension section of the drum, and thus it is enough to attach the shifting tool for a mooring rope with respect to one notch. Therefore, the shifting tool for a mooring rope is applicable regardless of the number and the shape of the notches. Also, the structures and the fixing method of the outside fixing member and the partition side fixing member are selectable depending on the situation. For instance, the outside fixing member may be directly fixed to the outside flange by means of screwing or the like after providing a through hole in the outside flange.
  • a mooring winch where the driving unit is provided in between (in the central part of) the drums on the right side and the left side is described.
  • the structure of the mooring winch is not limited to this.
  • the driving unit may be provided on the end part of one side of the right side and the left side.
  • the guiding member may be formed so as to be curved in a circular arc shape bulging toward the outside flange (being convex to the outside flange side), and also, the guiding member may be formed not in a circular arc shape, but in a straight line shape, a curved line shape, or a shape combining a circular arc shape and a straight line shape or a curved line shape.
  • the operating handle having a rod-like shape is used.
  • the clamping screw can be rotated with the operating handle and the shape of the operating handle is selectable depending on the situation.
  • the operating handle may be formed in a round shape, a polygonal shape, or else.
