Description

A VESSEL WITH RETRACTABLE THRUSTER < RTI ID = 0.0 >

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a ship having a pull-in thruster, and more particularly, to a ship having a pull-in thruster capable of preventing seawater from being introduced into an upper portion of a trunk.

Due to the rapid international industrialization and industrial development, the use of global resources such as petroleum is gradually increasing, and the stable production and supply of crude oil is becoming a very important issue on a global scale.

For this reason, recently marginal field or deep-sea oil field, which has been neglected due to lack of economic efficiency, has become economically feasible. Therefore, along with the development of submarine mining technology, One vessel is being developed.

Conventional submarine drilling vessels are mainly rig ships or fixed platforms dedicated to deep-sea drilling, which can be sailed only by a tugboat and perform submarine drilling at a certain point in the sea using a mooring device .

However, in recent years, a so-called drill ship having been manufactured in the same form as that of a general ship has been developed and installed in underwater drilling so as to mount a cutting-edge drilling rig and to navigate with its own power.

Ships such as drillships are designed to be able to navigate with their own power without a tugboat because of the work conditions that often require their position to be moved.

In addition, ships such as drillships are equipped with a dynamic positioning system that allows the vessel to be safely maintained at a certain drilling point in harsh marine conditions without using existing mooring equipment.

A key equipment used for main propulsion and self-positioning of such ships is azimuth thruster (hereinafter referred to as "thruster"), which is a kind of propulsion device.

Thrusters are mainly propulsion and position control propellers, which are located at the bottom of the bottom of the hull, equipped with propellers capable of rotating 360 degrees, and capable of propelling, propelling or rotating the ship.

For example, the thruster may be used when it is impossible to control the ship by the main thruster and the rudder, that is, to perform the magnetic position control to maintain the ship in a desired position with respect to disturbance such as tide and waves, It can also be used in case of trying to get on a marine structure.

Here, the position of the thrust disposed below the bottom of the hull for controlling the position of the ship is referred to as a dynamic positioning mode (hereinafter referred to as "DP mode").

However, the thruster is useful for position control of the ship in the DP mode. However, since the thruster is protruded to the bottom of the hull during the ship operation, the thruster becomes a resistor and deteriorates the operation efficiency of the ship.

Further, in the DP mode, since the diver must perform work such as installing, releasing, repairing, and repairing the thruster at the bottom of the hull bottom, that is, below the sea surface, the operation is dangerous and complicated and the operation efficiency is lowered.

In addition, when the thruster breaks down during the operation of the ship, the work for repairing and repairing is complicated and it is difficult to collect it in the dock for repairing the hull due to the structure protruding from the lower part of the hull.

In order to solve the above problems, there have been proposed methods of projecting outside the hull at the time of magnetic position control, and introducing the thrusters into the hull during operation.

In the method of retracting the thrusters themselves, a propeller for generating thrust is installed at the lower end of the main shaft, and the main shaft is raised along a guide member provided inside the hull to draw the thrusters themselves into the hull will be.

This method is mainly used for small and medium sized vessels because there is a limit to the stiffness of the body shaft in which the propeller is installed in relation to the thruster propulsion force.

This is for the purpose of reducing the resistance in a state in which a thruster is drawn in the inside of the hull at the time of the operation of the ship (aka "Transit mode"). In repairing and repairing the thruster, There is still a problem that work must be performed below the sea level.

Therefore, in order to overcome the problem of the method of pulling the thrusters themselves and to apply them to large ships, and to overcome the rigidity limit of the conventional body shaft, a canister, which supports the thrusters, And a method of raising the thruster and the canister to the upper part of the waterline of the ship inside the hull has been proposed.

That is, a method of introducing a thruster and a canister is to install a vertical tunnel, i.e., a trunk, vertically lifting the canister and thruster to the hull, and raising and lowering the canister and the thruster in the trunk.

In the case where the thrusters are projected from the bottom of the hull and the bottom of the canister is located at the lower end of the trunk, The risk of seawater infiltration into the trunk is small.

However, during operation of the ship, the thruster and the canister are drawn into the inside of the trunk and the lower end of the trunk is opened, so that seawater flows into the inside of the trunk.

Especially, inside the trunk, maintenance space is provided near the waterline. There is a problem that the safety of the operator is deteriorated when seawater flows into the inside of the trunk.
