Abstract

Cette présente invention concerne une structure flottante de conception très légère et très stable destinées à supporter des éoliennes offshore (1) ou tout autre équipement, remorquable en position verticale depuis leur site de fabrication jusqu'à leur site de fonctionnement en mer profonde avec tout leur équipement en tête et, ceci, grâce à son faible tirant d'eau, se libérant ainsi de tout moyens de manutention lourds et onéreux en mer ouverte. Cette structure est caractérisée par le fait que le flotteur (2): - en version émergée, fig.1, permet le remorquage en position verticale de son site de fabrication à son site définitif avec tout son équipement prêt à fonctionner, la stabilité étant assurée par un lest permanent (4) situé sous le flotteur par l'intermédiaire d'une colonne balastable (3). - en version immergée, fig.1 bis, par ballastage (5) de la colonne et d'une partie du flotteur (6) par des pompes (7) situées dans la partie vide du flotteur, permet de donner à l'ensemble une bonne stabilité et d'assurer à l'éolienne de fonctionner dans des conditions de mer fixées par le cahier des charges de l'exploitant. - En version immergée fig. 2bis, le lest étant descendu plus profondément au moyen d'un système à coulisse actionné par un mécanisme soit à crémaillère soit par frein pneumatique ou hydraulique ou partreuils ou autre mécanisme adapté, permet d'améliorer la stabilité dans des conditions de mer plus sévères.The present invention relates to a floating structure of very light and very stable design intended to support offshore wind turbines (1) or any other equipment, towable in a vertical position from their manufacturing site to their site of operation in the deep sea with all their equipment in mind and, this, thanks to its shallow draft, thus freeing itself from any heavy and expensive handling equipment in the open sea. This structure is characterized by the fact that the float (2): - in emergent version, fig.1, allows the towing in vertical position of its manufacturing site to its final site with all its equipment ready to operate, stability being ensured by a permanent ballast (4) located under the float via a balastable column (3). - In submerged version, fig.1 bis, by ballasting (5) of the column and a portion of the float (6) by pumps (7) located in the empty portion of the float, allows to give the whole a good stability and to ensure the wind turbine to operate in sea conditions fixed by the specifications of the operator. - In submerged version fig. 2a, the ballast being lowered deeper by means of a sliding system actuated by a rack mechanism or by pneumatic or hydraulic brake or partreuils or other suitable mechanism, improves the stability in harsher sea conditions.

Description

1 Structure flottante en mer profonde, permettant le remorquage d'éoliennes offshore sur leur site de fonctionnement avec tout leur équipement prêt à fonctionner. La présente invention concerne une structure flottante permettant le transport d' éoliennes ou tout autre équipement de leur site de fabrication jusque sur leur site d' exploitation sans passer par l'installation des équipements en pleine mer permettant ainsi de s'affranchir de moyens de levage extrêmement onéreux.1 Deep sea floating structure, allowing the towing of offshore wind turbines at their operating site with all their equipment ready for operation. The present invention relates to a floating structure allowing the transport of wind turbines or other equipment from their manufacturing site to their operating site without going through the installation of equipment in the open sea thus eliminating lifting means. extremely expensive.

Ce type de structure est inspirée d'un brevet déjà déposé par son inventeur Jean-Pierre Compagnon: - en France, enregistrement national N° 83 01521, du 1er février 1983 - en Angleterre, UK Patent Application N° 85 01244, du 18 janvier 1985 Ces brevets ne permet pas le transport de la totalité des équipements du fait d'un 10 tirant d'eau trop important. L'originalité de l'invention est de se servir du flotteur en flottaison (version émergée) limitant ainsi le tirant d'eau en permettant ainsi le transport de tous les équipements sur son site définitif de production. Arrivé sur le site , la colonne, support du lest fixe, est ballastée ainsi qu'une partie du 15 volume du flotteur afin de ramener le flotteur à la profondeur voulue ( version immergée). Pour améliorer la stabilité, si nécessaire, il est encore possible de prévoir un mécanisme de descente du lest à un niveau inférieur par un système de coulisse actionné par une crémaillère soit par un frein hydraulique ou pneumatique ou tout autre système adapté. 20 Suivant une caractéristique préférentielle de l'invention, la structure sera constituée d'un flotteur associé à une colonne ballastable de faible longueur (10 à 20 mètres) supportant un lest fixe de forme indifférente et constitué d'un métal lourd ou tout autre matière, le faible tirant d'eau permettant sa construction à partir d'un quai de profondeur moyenne et son transport en position verticale jusqu'à son site 25 définitif Citons comme exemple, un site de fabrication possédant un quai profond de 12 mètres. Dans ce cas, la longueur de la colonne lest pourra être de 10 mètres. L'étude de l'ensemble de la structure, pourra alors déterminer le volume du flotteur, par exemple de 4000 M3 associé à un lest permanent par exemple de 1500 tonnes. 30 Le -a serait de 2,40 mètres, suffisant pour assurer la stabilité pendant le remorquage de la structure avec tout son équipement en tête. Suivant une autre caractéristique préférentielle de l'invention, la colonne lest sera ballastée ainsi qu'une partie du volume du flotteur, une fois l'opération d'ancrage terminée afin d'immerger le flotteur à une profondeur suffisante, hors de l'effet de la 35 houle (15 à 20 mètre en moyenne). A titre d'exemple, pour une profondeur de 20 mètres, le -a serait de 7,8 mètres, le système d'ancrage du flotteur pouvant être un système caténaire par chaines ou par câbles tendus. Suivant une caractéristique préférentielle de l'invention le lest pourra être descendu 40 plus profondément, si nécessaire, afin d'améliorer la stabilité. Dans ce cas, la descente du lest pourra être assurée par un mécanisme comme un système à coulisse actionné soit par crémaillère soit par un frein hydraulique ou pneumatique ou tout autre système adapte. Une autre possibilité de descente du lest pourra être assurée par des treuils intégrés 45 dans le mat support de l'éolienne. Cette opération devra être effectuée par mer calme. 3036371 2 Afin de bien comprendre l'invention, la figure 1 représente la structure en phase de remorquage, avec son flotteur émergé (2) associé à sa colonne-lest (3) et son lest fixe de forme indifférente et constitué d'un métal lourd ou tout autre matière . Dans cette configuration, le tirant d'eau étant très faible, la structure peut être 5 remorquée sur son site définitif avec tout son équipement prêt à fonctionner. La figure 1 bis représente la structure sur son site d'exploitation, ancrée en mer profonde, le flotteur étant immergé par ballastage de la colonne-lest (5) ainsi que par une partie du volume du flotteur (6) ( l'eau de ballastage dans la colonne-lest n'étant pas suffisante pour amener le flotteur dans sa position immergée défmitive).This type of structure is inspired by a patent already filed by its inventor Jean-Pierre Compagnon: - in France, national registration No. 83 01521, of February 1, 1983 - in England, UK Patent Application No. 85 01244, January 18 1985 These patents do not allow the transport of all the equipment because of a too large draft. The originality of the invention is to use the floating float (emergent version) thus limiting the draft allowing the transport of all equipment on its final production site. Arrived at the site, the column, support of the fixed ballast, is ballasted and a portion of the volume of the float to bring the float to the desired depth (immersed version). To improve the stability, if necessary, it is still possible to provide a lower ballast lowering mechanism by a sliding system operated by a rack or by a hydraulic or pneumatic brake or any other suitable system. According to a preferred feature of the invention, the structure will consist of a float associated with a ballastable column of short length (10 to 20 meters) supporting a fixed ballast indifferent form and consisting of a heavy metal or any other material , the shallow draft allowing its construction from a medium depth wharf and its transport in a vertical position to its final site. Let us give as an example a manufacturing site with a 12 meter deep dock. In this case, the length of the column ballast may be 10 meters. The study of the entire structure, can then determine the volume of the float, for example 4000 M3 associated with a permanent ballast, for example 1500 tons. 30 The -a would be 2.40 meters, enough to provide stability while towing the structure with all its equipment in mind. According to another preferred feature of the invention, the ballast column will be ballasted and a part of the float volume, once the anchoring operation is completed in order to immerse the float to a sufficient depth, out of the effect. the swell (15 to 20 meters on average). For example, for a depth of 20 meters, the -a would be 7.8 meters, the anchoring system of the float can be a catenary system by chains or by tensioned cables. According to a preferred feature of the invention the ballast may be lowered deeper, if necessary, to improve stability. In this case, the descent of the ballast may be provided by a mechanism such as a sliding system actuated either by rack or by a hydraulic or pneumatic brake or any other suitable system. Another possibility of descent of the ballast may be provided by integrated winches 45 in the support mat of the wind turbine. This operation must be carried out by calm sea. In order to understand the invention, FIG. 1 represents the structure in the towing phase, with its emergent float (2) associated with its ballast column (3) and its fixed ballast of indifferent shape and made of a metal heavy or any other material. In this configuration, the draft being very low, the structure can be towed to its final site with all its equipment ready for operation. Figure 1a shows the structure on its operating site, anchored in the deep sea, the float being immersed by ballasting the column-ballast (5) and by a part of the volume of the float (6) (the water of ballast in the ballast column not being sufficient to bring the float into its submerged final position).

Les pompes de ballastage (7) situées dans la partie vide du flotteur permettent la mise en eau de la colonne lest ainsi qu'une partie du volume du flotteur. Les figure 2 et 2bis représentent la même structure mais avec son lest descendu plus profondément par un système à coulisse (8) actionné par crémaillère ou par treuils ou plus simplement par frein hydraulique ou pneumatique ou tout autre système adapté.The ballast pumps (7) located in the empty portion of the float allow the watering of the ballast column and a portion of the volume of the float. Figures 2 and 2bis show the same structure but with its ballast descended deeper by a sliding system (8) operated by rack or winches or more simply by hydraulic or pneumatic brake or any other suitable system.

Au cours de la descente du lest, une partie du volume de la colonne lest sera ballastée(9) afin de garder constant la profondeur d'immersion du flotteur et, ainsi, ne pas interrompre le fonctionnement de l'éolienne figure 2bis. Ce lest, descendu plus profondément, permettra de de supporter des conditions de mer encore plus sévères du fait de l'amélioration de de la stabilité caractérisée par une 20 meilleure valeur de son -a (différence entre le centre de poussée et le centre de gravité)During the descent of the ballast, a portion of the volume of the ballast column will be ballasted (9) in order to keep constant the depth of immersion of the float and, thus, do not interrupt the operation of the wind turbine Figure 2bis. This ballast, descended more deeply, will allow to withstand even more severe sea conditions due to the improvement of the stability characterized by a better value of its -a (difference between the center of thrust and the center of gravity). )
