Description
- The present disclosure relates to a lifting system with a three-way motion compensation function, and belongs to the technical field of ocean engineering.
- In an offshore operation, a vessel body moves with a wave in a sea condition, and devices on the vessel body also move with the wave, causing phenomena such as imbalance of stress on a lifting device, mechanical collision, and constant change of a lifting position. In addition, a synchronous lifting process is hard to guarantee; or even, a marine accident is caused. Heave compensation in a vertical direction is generally used in the prior art, but heave compensation has an unsatisfactory compensation effect and a complex structure. In a double-vessel hoisting method proposed recently, based on the lever principle, a boom is provided with a ballast buoy at a front end and a counterweight tank at a rear end. In a lifting operation, water is discharged from the buoy, and the counterweight tank is filled with water, thereby jointly increasing a lifting force. However, the double-vessel hoisting method has the following defects: (1) It requires a complex structure, and takes a long time to fill and discharge water. (2) In this operation, a lifted object may collide with the vessel body because of shaking of the vessel body. (3) Lifting efficiency is low.

Each of the lockingsliders 83 slides uni-directionally along aslide rail 84 and is provided with an inclined surface matched with thelocking rack 81. The adjustment hydraulic cylinders push thelocking rack 81 into the first racks13/third racks 42. Thelocking rack 81 and the first racks 13/third racks 42 are meshed with each other. The two lockingsliders 83 approach thelocking rack 81, and the inclined surfaces of the two lockingsliders 83 are fitted with inclined surfaces of thelocking rack 81. - When an object is lifted, second
hydraulic motors 55 and third hydraulic motor 23 act synchronously to adjust a position of the main arm 1 in a front-back direction. Then, firsthydraulic motors 53 act to adjust the position of the main arm 1 in a left-right direction; thehydraulic cylinder 64 in the lifting mechanism 6 acts to enable a lifting bracket 63 to approach the lifted object. Cooperating with an accumulator, the lifting mechanism 6 controls stretching of thehydraulic cylinder 64 by detecting stress on the lifting bracket 63, and keeps stress on the lifting bracket 63 unchanged, thereby preforming a passive compensation function. The firsthydraulic motors 53, the secondhydraulic motors 55, and the third hydraulic motor 23 are controlled by detecting a position offset of the vessel body relative to the lifted object, thereby compensating position deviation of the main arm 1 in the left-right direction and the front-back direction. Finally, the lifting bracket 63 is static relative to the lifted object, and the stress is constant. - In addition, a plurality of the lifting systems may be used to work jointly based on weight of the lifted object.
- The lifting system can perform a three-way motion compensation function, and can effectively avoid mechanical collision, position deviation, or the like caused by rolling, pitching, or heaving of the vessel body. The locking mechanisms provided in the present disclosure can effectively and reliably lock the main arm when there is no need for compensation. Moreover, the plurality of the lifting systems can be used jointly. The lifting system has wide applicability, and uses hydraulic pressure for lifting, thereby having high lifting efficiency and low comprehensive costs.
- The lifting system can be widely applied to scenarios of ocean engineering.
- A circuit, an electronic component, and a module used in the lifting system are all belong to the prior art, and can be implemented by a person skilled in the art. Description of details is not required. Content provided by the present disclosure does not include improvement on software and a method.
- It should be noted that in this specification, relational terms such as first and second are used only to differentiate an entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not require or imply that any actual relationship or sequence exists between these entities or operations. In addition, terms "include", "comprise", or any other variants thereof are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, a method, an article, or a device that includes a list of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes other elements that are not explicitly listed, or further includes elements inherent to the process, the method, the article, or the device.
