Definitions
- the present invention relates to a means, called a “Catamaran Silo Platform", to be used in fish farming installations.
- the platform creating one of four sides in the fish farming enclosure, is preferably constructed from profiled steel plates, and is generally characterised by an underlying floating construction of a catamaran type with a primary float and at least one secondary float being placed at a suitable distance from and parallel to the primary float, the longitudinal float axis coinciding with the direction of the current. Driveway and gangways are interconnecting the floats.
- the primary float is of a different construction with bigger dimensions than the secondary float and both floats are particularly adapted for its intended purpose.
- the distance float to float gives room for paired enclosures as for example of dimensions 15x15, 20x20 or 25x25 meter.
- In the primary float there is arranged a number of inner chambers and silos extending downwards to the float base and where the float sidewalls are forming two of the silo sides and half the silo base.
- the silo chambers will partly serve for storage of fish feed, partly as observation chamber, living quarter, equipment room, generator room, diesel oil and water tanks as well as central feeding unit.
- each individual silo or chamber that is integrated in the installation itself can have a total load capacity of 100 metric tons or more. Free chambers can be used for other purposes.
- the secondary float is of a construction having enough buoyancy for, with the necessary freeboard, to carry the driveway and the gangways, thereby adding the excellent stability in floating position. Because the floats are placed in the sea in such a way that their longitudinal axis coincide with the direction of the current, oxygen rich, environmentally beneficial sea water is all the time flowing through the fish farming installation so that an accumulation of unwanted elements is excluded.
- This Catamaran Silo Platform is constructed from profiled steel plates and constructed for application in stormy waters Because of the compact construction that only to a small extent is influenced by currents and wave movements, all work can be executed under great safety.
- the excellent stability and buoyancy of the installation opens for the use of support rails for stretching out the nets at the bottom, so that these are kept stationary, approximately in vertical position, thus always maintaining the maximal production volume.
- the platform installation is of a compact construction that will ease the towing to other sites and simplify feed loading, feed distribution, feeding and so on, in addition to permit the continual control with the operation of the installation.
- Fig. 1 is showing a perspective drawing, as seen from above, of a
- Fig. 2 is showing different cuts of the primary float, including silo chambers, of the platform.
- the Catamaran Silo Platform 10 according to the drawings comprises one primary float 123 and at least one secondary float 14 that in floating position is situated mainly parallel to each other in a fixed distance from each other.
- the primary float 12 is equipped with several chambers or silos 22, the exact number depending upon the length of the float.
- Each silo chamber 22 is extending from a superstructure of the quay 16, down to the float base, and is equipped with a roof hatch and a base sluice.
- the driveway 18 and the gangways 20 connecting the floats 12 and 14 are carried by the floats with the necessary freeboard at water surface level.
- silos or chambers 22 are intended for the possible use as observation room, living quarter, equipment room, generator central, diesel oil and water tanks as well as central feeding unit, and can also be utilised for other purposes.
- the Catamaran Silo Platform is, as presented, calculated, dimensioned, built and quality controlled according to NS 347.
