Abstract

The floating fueling station is intended for refueling watercraft and other equipment in the waters of sea bays, bays, fresh water reservoirs, as well as for receiving and dispensing liquid waste (household, fecal and other waters). The station contains a building, a superstructure, a canopy, a fuel dispenser a column, tanks with pipelines for receiving and dispensing fuel, tanks with pipelines for receiving and dispensing liquid waste. For refueling, a fuel dispensing gun is supplied to the watercraft moored to the refueling vessel. The fueling process is similar to automobile. For delivery of liquid waste from boats, a corresponding hose is supplied to the floating gas station. As a result of the implementation of the claimed utility model, we obtain a floating gas station capable of not only providing fuel for watercraft and other equipment, but also receiving and disposing of liquid household waste from them, 4 ill.

Description

The utility model relates to devices for refueling watercraft and other equipment in the waters of sea bays, bays, fresh water reservoirs, in addition, to equipment for receiving and dispensing liquid waste (household, fecal and other waters). Various floating gas stations are available.

A floating autonomous fuel storage facility is known for providing and refueling marine vessels (US patent No. 6945187 class B63B 35/00 09/20/2005). The storage contains a power unit, a fuel pump with valves, a steering device for towing.

The device of this floating autonomous fuel storage facility provides the facility with the possibility of eliminating fuel leaks into the surrounding water, due to the fact that the storage body has elastic double walls and is divided by bulkheads to create fuel compartments and can provide refueling of ships both in stationary and in transported form. The storage allows, if necessary, its secretive movement in the submerged state.

The closest set of essential features to the claimed utility model is a floating bunker station, information about which was provided by Samaranefteproduct NK Yukos in the journal Modern Gas Station No. 3 for 2007, which was used as a prototype. The floating bunkering station is designed for refueling on rivers and lakes of various classes of vessels from small motor boats to large boats, yachts and pleasure boats. Despite the fact that the station is designed to refuel water transport, it

It is able to replenish fuel and winter equipment for leisure activities (snowmobiles, snowmobiles, air gliders, etc.). A floating bunkering station consists of an oil barge with four fuel tanks, a control room for fuel and dispensers and a landing stage designed to house a store for related products, storage rooms for staff rooms.

An analysis of the technical and consumer characteristics of the prototype showed that, along with such advantages as the ability to provide the crew and passengers of ships of various classes with the additional amenities that shops, warehouses and personnel rooms provide, a floating bunker station does not have the technical ability to pick up a vessel from a floating bunker station. accumulated waste. In addition, the floating bunkering station is characterized by a complex structure and bulky dimensions.

The utility model is based on the technical task:

- create such a floating gas station, which will be designed not only for refueling watercraft and other equipment in the waters of sea bays, bays, fresh water reservoirs, but also for receiving and dispensing liquid waste (household, fecal and other waters).

- to provide the declared floating gas station with a simple design, compact dimensions, requiring a minimum berth space and ensuring ease of transportation.

The stated technical problem is achieved in that the floating gas station must contain at least one tank with a piping system connected to this tank for receiving and dispensing liquid waste.

The device of a floating gas station contains a hull, a superstructure and a canopy. The hull is divided into compartments by watertight bulkheads. Moreover, as a rule, the bow and stern compartments are dry, and the middle compartment includes tanks for liquid waste (household and bilge water) and fuel tanks. Dry cofferdams are located between the tanks and the sides. The fuel dispenser is mounted on the upper deck. A waterway is provided along the perimeter of the fuel tanks on the upper deck with scuppers that have a drain into a special tank for collecting bilge and oily water. To ensure reliable fire and explosion safety, fuel tanks are filled with inert gas. Liquid waste (sewage, sewage, bilge water) is received and discharged through a piping system, both by means of watercraft serviced by the declared floating gas station, and by stationary devices (pumps) installed at the floating gas station. In addition, the delivery of water can be made at the expense of coastal funds. The superstructure installed on the upper deck consists of an operator’s room, a vestibule, a pantry and an inert gas station. For mooring on the deck of the declared station, bollards are provided. Along the perimeter of the pontoon is a wooden fender. At the request of the customer, it is possible to set floating booms providing circular enclosed boning of refueling motor yachts and boats.

The essence of the utility model is illustrated by drawings, which depict:

In Fig.2 - the case of a floating gas station, a cross-section according to D.P .;

Figure 3 is a section aa of figure 2;

Figure 4 is an example of a schematic diagram of the location of the pipelines of a floating gas station.

As shown in figures 1, 2, 3, a floating gas station comprises a housing 1; add-in 2; canopy 3; fuel dispenser 4; tanks for fuel 5, 6, 7; tanks for domestic and sewage, bilge and fecal waters 8, 9, 10; cofferdam 11; guard rail 12.

The floating gas station that claims to work this way.

The station receives fuel for refueling ships through a system of pipelines and necks from both fuel trucks and boats. A vessel in need of replenishment of fuel supplies approaches any side or bow (stern) of the station and is moored. A fuel dispensing gun is delivered to a moored vessel. The fueling process is similar to automobile. If it is necessary to deliver liquid waste from the vessel (sewage, domestic, fecal and bilge water), the crew of the craft supplies a hose to a floating gas station and, using their pumps or station equipment, discharges dirty water into the appropriate tanks. When filling the tanks, the crew of a floating gas station delivers wastewater, domestic, fecal and bilge water to the shore or a special craft. If necessary, in order to increase environmental safety, refueling vessels are provided with circular enclosed boning.

An example of the location of pipelines on the claimed utility model for receiving and dispensing fuel, liquid waste (household and other water) is shown in Fig. 4, where the piping system 13, 14, 15 is designed to receive and dispensing fuel, and the piping system 16, 17, 18 is intended for receiving and dispensing liquid waste.

The described device and the schematic diagram of the location of pipelines to the tanks was made during the construction of the floating gas station "Sofia" at the company LLC "Techflot", Sevastopol.

As a result of the implementation of the claimed utility model, we get a floating gas station designed to refuel small

vessels, motor boats, yachts and other equipment in the water area of sea bays, bays, as well as in reservoirs with fresh water fuels - gasoline, diesel fuel and kerosene. In addition, the station receives and subsequently discharges liquid waste - household, waste, fecal and bilge waters. The station is compact, convenient in operation and ensures environmental safety of the adjacent water area.
