Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a quayside rampway constructed between a car deck and a quay of a car ferry or a vehicle carrier, and more particularly to a car ferry having a foldable rampway. About the quay side rampway.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a rampway installed on a quay side of a car ferry or the like is a fixed type, and even if there is a movable part, it adjusts a vertical end of a hull side end to cope with a tide. Only.

[0003]

As described above, the conventional quayside rampway for car ferries provided on the quayside is of a fixed type, and thus becomes an obstacle on the quayside when not used.

[0004] In addition, there is a problem that it cannot be stored and is exposed to wind and rain, which is disadvantageous for maintenance.

The present invention is intended to solve such a problem, and has a structure in which the rampway is foldable so that the rampway can be easily stored. The purpose is to provide a rampway.

[0006]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, a quayside rampway for a car ferry according to the present invention is provided in a quayside rampway constructed between a vehicle deck of a car ferry and a quayside. lamp way is, if and a torque hinge and the hinge joint arranged alternately so as to couple the plurality of traveling plates and these running plate mutually bendable DOO
In addition, a wheel is provided near the hinge joint, and the wheel runs
And an inclined rail that can be supported as much as possible.
It is characterized in that it is equipped with a support standing on the quay .

[0007]

In the above-described car ferry quayside rampway of the present invention, a plurality of traveling plates constituting the rampway can be folded by operating the torque hinge.

[0008]

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG.
FIG. 1 is a schematic side view showing a erected state, and FIG. 2 is a schematic perspective view showing an enlarged main part.

The lampway 8 of this embodiment is also provided on the quay side and is installed between the vehicle deck 6 of the ship (car ferry) 3 and the quay 2.
As shown in, and is configured to be consolidated by the torque hinge 12 and the hinge joint 13 in which a plurality of running plate 8a are alternately arranged.

[0010] Consolidated portion attached to hinge joint 13, the wheel 14 is rotatably mounted, reference numeral 15 denotes a rail for guiding the wheel 14.

When not in use, the lampway 8 is folded and stored as shown by the arrow A in FIG. Sign 1
Indicates the sea level.

In use, the rail 15 is erected between the quay 2 and the vehicle deck 6 of the marine vessel 3 by being supported on the support column 10. 8 is developed by driving the torque hinges 12 so that the rampway 8 is connected to the quay 2.
And the vehicle deck 6. Reference numeral 9 indicates a vehicle traveling on the rampway 8.

The arrow 11a in the figure indicates the direction in which the traveling plate 8a is deployed. The arrow 11b indicates the folding direction of the traveling plate 8a.

Storage is performed by driving the torque hinge 12 in the opposite direction to that described above to fold each traveling plate 8a to the quay side and to move the traveling plate 8a to a desired storage location on the quay 2 in the folded state. It is. During this movement, the rollers 14 roll on the quay, and the movement is performed smoothly.

For loading the automobile 9a on the vehicle deck 5, a foldable outboard rampway 7 is provided on the ship 3
This is erected on the quay 2 and loaded (unloaded) on the vehicle deck 5.

Reference numeral 4 in FIG. 1 indicates a bow visor.

As described above, in the rampway 8 of this embodiment, the traveling plate 8a constituting the rampway 8 is driven from the folded state by driving the torque hinge 12 to the erected state, or from the erected state to the folded state. Therefore, when the lampway is inconvenient, the traveling plate 8a can be folded and stored easily, and can be easily moved to a desired storage location.

[0018]

As described in detail above, according to the quay side rampway for car ferries of the present invention , the
By operating the hinge, each traveling plate 8a moves along the inclined rail 15.
The quay and the ship's vehicle deck 6
The lane connecting the vehicles can be formed accurately in a short time.
When not in use , torque each running plate on the ramp way.
It can be folded on the quay by the operation of the hinge, which makes it easy to store it, and it is compact on the quay.
As a result , the lampway does not become an obstacle on the quay when not in use, and it is possible to prevent the lampway from being exposed to the wind and rain.
