Abstract

PURPOSE:To surely install a submarine station use block by allowing the submarine station use block to ground at a fixed point of the sea bottom, based on a transponder which has been installed on the sea bottom and data obtained from each communication to a work vessel. CONSTITUTION:A vessel 3 is navigated to a prescribed position, while detecting a position of the work vessel 3 by data which have been obtained by communication to transponders A-C, a lowering position of a block 6 is positioned, and thereafter, the block 6 is suspended by ropes 5, 5' and allowed to descend into the sea. Subsequently, a position of the block 6 is detected and confirmed and a necessary position correction is executed, and also, by a binger which has been attached to the block 6 together with a transponder 7, a distance extending from the block 6 to the sea bottom is measured continuously. Thereafter, when the block 6 has descended to a position which has been separated by a prescribed distance from the sea bottom, the descent of the block 6 is stopped, an operating signal is sent from the vessel 3, and by bringing a detaching device 8 which has been attached to the tip of the rope 5 to remote control, the rope 5' is detached from the block 6, and the block 6 is allowed to ground at an installing point.

[Detailed description of the invention] (Technical field to which the invention pertains) The present invention is directed to installing a block for an undersea station (a block for configuring a station on the seabed as a base for long-term exploration, transmission, etc.) at a fixed point on the seabed.

(Problem to be solved by the invention and its characteristics) Various instruments have been introduced and installed on the ocean floor to measure physical and chemical quantities on the ocean floor, but it is still difficult to conduct long-term observations at fixed points. It is not yet possible to do so.

In the present invention, the absolute positions of the three transponders installed on the seabed can be measured and detected using conventionally known methods. A method may be used in which the relative position of each transponder is detected based on data obtained from communication using acoustic pulse signals between each transponder and the ship, and the absolute position of each transponder is determined from these.

In the invention of claim <2), the block is placed a certain distance li from the seabed! The reason why the lobe is removed from the block after it has been lowered to a distant position and the block is then allowed to fall freely is that if the lobe is removed from the block after the block reaches the seabed, it will reduce the rocking of the work boat. This is because there is a risk that the block may be dragged on the ocean floor due to movement, etc., and even if the lobe detachment device is activated, it is difficult to confirm that the lobe has been detached.Currently, the lobe detachment position is not far from the ocean floor. It is thought that a distance of about 2 to 3 meters above is appropriate, and it is preferable to detect this distance using a pinger (a range finder that uses sound wave reflection) attached to the block.

Once the absolute positions of transponders A, B, and C are determined, the position of the workboat 3 can be known based on the data obtained from communication between these transponders and the transducer 4 mounted on the workboat 3. At the same time, the block 6 suspended from the row 15 is positioned above the installation point S and lowered into the sea (see Figure 2).

Then, remove the row 15 from the block 6 at an appropriate stage,
As mentioned above, it is preferable to remove the row 15 from the block 6 when the block 6 has been lowered to a certain distance from the seabed, and then allow the block 6 to freely descend.
To explain this case using FIG. 3, transponder A
, B, and C while detecting the position of the work boat 3, navigate the work boat 3 to a predetermined position [state 1 of (a), after locating the lowering position of block 6] , the block 6 is suspended by lobes 5,5'' and lowered into the sea, and during the descent, the position of the block 6 is detected and confirmed, and the necessary position correction is made. The distance from the block 6 to the seabed is continuously measured by the pinger attached to the system. When the block 6 has descended to a predetermined distance from the seabed in state 1 of (υ), the descent of the block 6 is stopped [ Case 91 of (c), the operation signal is sent from the work boat 3, the detachment device 8 attached to the tip of the lobe 5 is remotely operated, the lobe 5° is removed from the block 6, and the block 6 is brought to the installation point S by free descent. Let it touch the bottom [state 1 of (d)] In this case, a tension gauge is provided on the row 15, and the row 1
By detecting a change in the tension of the block 6, it can be confirmed that the lobe 5° is removed from the block 6.

(Effects of the Invention) Since the present invention is as described above, a block for an undersea station can be easily and reliably installed at a predetermined installation point, and the block can be lowered to a position a certain distance away from the seabed. This is particularly reliable if the lobes are removed from the block at this stage and the block 6 is then allowed to fall freely.
