Definitions
- the present invention relates to a hose drum having a hose assigned thereto, for the transfer of liquid substances and substances capable of running or flowing through the hose by pressure/gravitation, said hose drum with its hose being particularly intended for use on offshore installations for the transfer of e.g. bunker fuels, socalled process materials such as process oil, liquid fuels in general, liquid concrete, barite and other drilling mud and drilling fluid additives, etc. , from a supply boat to an oil production platform or vice versa.
- process materials such as process oil, liquid fuels in general, liquid concrete, barite and other drilling mud and drilling fluid additives, etc.
- hose drums exist in both motor-operated and manually handleable design. In both cases, the distance between the inner faces of the side walls of the drum is substantially larger than the associated hose diameter. This gives rise to a very uneven winding, so that one longitudinal portion of the central core of the drum, subsequent to the coiling of the hose, may comprise many overlapping hose windings, while another longitudinal portion of the rum core may exhibit only a few hose windings. A hose so unevenly coiled on the drum is difficult to cause to uncoil properly and controlledly from the drum again, overlapping hose winding portions, especially upon tight coiling, may adhere rather much to each other and oppose uncoiling.
- an oil production platform has a hose station comprising a plurality of hoses of various dimensions.
- hoses are heavy.
- the present handling is cumbersome and rather complex and may cause accidents.
- the object of the present invention has been to overcome the above-mentioned disadvantages and, thus, provide a hose drum having a hose assigned thereto, aiming at achieving an extremely even and controlled coiling and uncoiling of the hose, thus contributing to the increase of safety on board offshore installations, such as oil production platforms equipped with a hose/hose drum station.
- the distance between the side walls of the drum, corresponding to the axial length of the drum core is slightly larger than the diameter of the hose assigned thereto, enforcing a coiling and an uncoiling of the hose along a helical line, without any possibility of hose winding overlaps forming in the longitudinal direction of the drum core.
- the formation of hose windings having the same spacing to the rotational axis of the drum core is efficiently prevented, i.e. hose windings situated side by side, with the possibility of being overlapped, one by the other, in the axial direction of the drum core. Uneven distribution of hose windings in the longitudinal direction of the drum core is, therefore, excluded. The result is the most even and controlled coiling and uncoiling of the hose achieveable.
- Each hose drum is assigned a drive device of its own, representing the most practical and safest solution.
- the inner hose end is provided with a swivel coupling, the rotational axis thereof coinciding with the rotational axis of the drum core, so that the supply of materials to a hose assigned to a hose drum is not influenced by the rotation of the drum.
- hose-/hose drum station may be kept in perfect order, increasing the safety and security on board offshore installations.
- Figure l shows a situation view where a supply boat delivers e.g. liquid fuel to an offshore oil production platform through a hose assigned to a drum incorporated within a hose drum station on board the platform;
- FIG. 1 shows the same as figure 1, seen from above;
- Figure 3 shows a side elevational view of a hose drum having a hose assigned thereto, shaped and designed in accordance with the present invention
- Figure 4 shows the hose drum with the hose coiled thereon, as seen from the left hand side in figure 3;
- Figure 5 shows a hose drum station in a view corresponding to figure 4;
- FIG. 6 is a top plan view of the hose drum station as shown in figure 5.
- Figures 1 and 2 show a typical case of use for a hose and a drum assigned thereto, shaped and designed in accordance with the present invention:
- each of a number of independently operated hose drums 10 is assigned a hose 12 of its own, said hose 12 - according to the examplary embodiment in figures 1 and 2 - serving to transfer a material, e.g. a liquid fuel, to an oil production platform 14 from a supply boat 16 situated at a substantial distance below a platform deck 14* carrying six parallel hose drums 10, each having a hose 12 of its own.
- the diameters of the hoses may vary, and each hose drum is adapted to the hose dimension of its own.
- a hose drum 10 according to the invention consists in a known manner of two parallel side restricting walls 10' and an intermediate, central core 10", figure 4, walls and core having a common rotational axis 18.
- the drum 10 is rotatably supported in an upright stand 20, figure 4, where a side restricting wall 10' is fitted to a rim bearing having a gear rim 22 integrated therewith, the gear rim 22 meshing with a drive pinion on the outgoing shaft from a drive motor 24 equipped with a brake and carried by the stand 20.
- the rotatable support and independent operation of the drum are only indicated diagrammatically, the constructive embodiment not being critical; there are many suitable ways of solving the suspension and operation issues.
- the inner end of the hose 12 is provided with an external swivel coupling 26, to which the pipe system of the platform may be connected through a bend 28, a further bend 30 (or a straight pipe section) and flange joints 32.
- the swivel coupling 26 and the hose drum 10 have a common rotational axis 18, and the material transfer is not negatively influenced by the rotation of the drum 10.
- the inner opposing faces 10a' of the side restricting walls 10* have a mutual spacing only slightly exceeding the hose diameter, so that the hose 12 upon coiling is forced to follow a helical path, making overlaps and uneven hose winding distribution in the axial direction 18 of the drum impossible. This secures a controlled coiling and uncoiling of the hose.
- a hose drum station, figures 5 and 6, may have a base 34 of its own on the platform deck 14' .
