Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a submarine element driving means according to the preamble of
claim 1. - Previously disclosed in US A 4,181,455 is a submarine element driving means intended for the driving of a pile-shaped element designed for mooring purposes, for instance, into a bottom beneath the surface of the water. The means described is, however, complicated with regard both to its construction and its application, and it is not possible to produce, for instance, inclined holes for piles or other elements intended for other purposes which it is wished to secure to the bottom. The object of the present invention is thus to make available a means of the kind indicated above which, amongst other things, will overcome said disadvantages.
- Said purpose is achieved by a submarine element driving means in accordance with the present invention, which is characterized in that the means for the production of the holes etc. is also mounted on the frame in bearings for pivotal movement about a bearing shaft extending along a horizontal axis of the frame, thereby enabling holes to be produced in the bottom or the elements to be driven into the bottom in a single operation both at a desired compass bearing in relation to the vertical and at a desired angle to the horizontal, and in that an anchoring means is provided which is formed by spiral anchoring means capable of being screwed down into the bottom, the frame having located thereon angularly adjustable driving units for screwing the anchoring means down into the bottom at a desired angle to the horizontal.
- The invention is described below as a preferred embodiment, in conjunction with which reference is made to the accompanying drawings, in which:
- Fig. 1 shows the submarine element driving means viewed from the side;
- Fig. 2 shows the submarine element driving means viewed from above;
- Fig. 2A is a section along the line A-A shown in Fig. 2;
- Fig. 2B is a section along the line B-B shown in Fig. 2;
- Fig. 3 shows an application for the invention in conjunction with the anchoring of a movable platform;
- Fig. 3A shows a view from above of the piling pattern for this anchorage system;
- Fig. 4 shows the invention applied for the purpose of anchoring a pipe to the bottom, and
- Fig. 5 shows the invention applied for the purpose of anchoring a bottom plate.
- A so-called submarine element driving means 1 comprises not only a
frame 2, but also means 3 arranged both for the production of holes 4 in the bottom 5, preferably a bottom into which it is wished to drive pile-like elements 6, intended for piling for the purpose of, for example, reinforcing the sea bed in conjunction with the underwater casting ofbridge foundations 7 and wharf pillars, etc., and/or for the anchoring of conceivable objects such as movable platforms 8, landing- stages and buoys and beacons, or forpipes 9 which it is wished to anchor to the bottom beneath thesurface 10 of the water and immersed inwater 11, and for the driving of theelements 6 into the bottom 5 in a single operation. - Said means 3 may suitably consist of an upper unit attached to the
frame 2 by, for example, a double-articulatedmounting 12 preferably of the gimbal suspension type, or by some other suitable means of attachment which will permit the means 3 to be rotated to the desired angle (compass bearing) in relation to a vertical axis and about an at leastimaginary bearing shaft 12A extending along a horizontal axis of theframe 2. - Those
elements 6 which it is proposed to drive by the submarine element driving means 1 consist of spiral piling elements which, for at least part of their length, exhibit a screw-like flange 6A or some other component projecting sideways from acore 6B by means of which it is possible to produce suitable holes 4 in the bottom 5. A number of spiral piling elements may suitably be so arranged as to be capable of being connected to one another in their longitudinal direction beneath thesurface 10 of thewater 11 by remote control via, for example, a camera and/or by divers who are present in saidwater 11. The other functions of the submarine element driving means can also be controlled in said fashion. - A
magazine 14, preferably in the form of a ring, is intended to hold a number ofspiral piling elements 6 around its periphery and suitably a part of said upper unit. - The upper unit may suitably consist of a pile screwing means 15 moving vertically up and down the height of the unit, said pile screwing means is preferably being capable of being driven hydraulically and also suitably being supported by an arm 16 or by some other supporting means projecting sideways from a
central axis 17 of the means 3 and capable of being rotated about saidcentral axis 17, which can serve as a plumb-line and can also serve as an axis of oscillation, along astorage space 14A in themagazine 14. It is thus possible for the pile screwing means 15 to be rotated about thecentral axis 17, and for the desiredelement 6 to be driven into the bottom 5 at the desired angle. - The
frame 2 consists of a number offrame legs 18 extending in a direction away from the means 3, saidframe legs 10 preferably being evenly distributed around the periphery of the means 3 so as to extend outwards at identical distances from said upper unit. - Preferably arranged at the
ends 18A of saidframe legs 18 are controllable driving units by means of which spiral anchoring means 19 can be screwed down into the bottom 5 at a desired angle X in relation to the horizontal so as to permit the subsequent precise installation of theelements 6 at the desired angle in relation to a compass bearing and to a plumb-line 13. Said anchoring is intended to take place automatically of its own accord. The spiral anchoring means 19 situated furthest to the front in the direction of travel of the submarine element driving means, i.e. that shown in Fig. 2A, may suitably be screwed down first. Said spiral anchoring means 19 may suitably be so arranged as to be capable of being moved along the bottom 5 in relation to theframe 2, preferably in the direction of travel indicated by the arrows (see Fig. 2A), whereby, once said first spiral anchoring means 19 has been screwed down into the bottom 5, said first driven spiral anchoring means 19 will, in conjunction with the subsequent screwing down of the remaining spiral anchoring means 19, which are so arranged as to be screwed down for each of theremaining frame legs 18, be allowed to flex, as it were, i.e. to move in relation to theframe 2, so as to permit the driving of said other spiral anchoring means 19 to be achieved at the desired angle X. - The
frame 2 also exhibits driving means 20, for example crawler tracks or similar, capable of interacting with the bottom 5 so as to enable the submarine element driving means 1 to be moved to a desired point on the bottom 5. - A line 21 or a similar lifting means, which is capable of being attached to a vessel situated at the
surface 10 of the water, is capable of being attached to said submarine element driving means 1 for the purpose of enabling it to be raised and lowered from and to a proposed piling position on the bottom 5. - The submarine element driving means 1 and its various functions should suitably be capable of being driven hydraulically, with the driving means intended for same, such as the hydraulic power unit and the control valve, being situated in the upper part of the means. The submarine element driving means 1 can be driven by, for example, electric current supplied either via a cable from the vessel or from its own batteries, etc.
- The function of the submarine element driving means should be apparent from the foregoing, it is thus capable, irrespective of the nature of the bottom, of driving so-called
spiral piling elements 6 down into the bottom 5 at a desired angle. The driving of theelements 6 in such a way that they are inclined in relation to a plumb-line 13 offers advantages in conjunction with anchoring applications, for example, since the capacity of the pile to absorb high forces is increased in the case of an inclined pile.
