Abstract

The method involves closing a one-sided open tubular body on both sides, and detachably connecting the tubular body to form a floatable bundle (1). One end of the bundle is provided with a drive such that the bundle is floatably transported. The bundle is formed from multiple layers, where a lower layer of the bundle is closed from a floatable, packet-shaped unit and forms the body. The body is immersed in water. Multiple tubes are partially flooded for adjusting desired depth or transportation height. Strut and/or rear units (7, 8) are directly connected with a front surface of the bundle.

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Transport von rohrförmigen Körpern. Insbesondere in jüngerer Zeit sind rohrförmige Körper im Zusammenhang mit der Erstellung von maritimen Bauten wie Ölplattformen, Windenergieanlagen und dergleichen zum Teil sehr groß und schwer ausgebildet und sind zu transportieren. Gleiches gilt auch für den Pipelinebau und dergleichen.The present invention relates to a method for transporting tubular bodies. In particular, more recently tubular body in connection with the creation of maritime structures such as oil rigs, wind turbines and the like are sometimes very large and heavy and are to be transported. The same applies to pipeline construction and the like.

Die Rohre können erhebliche Längen aufweisen, wobei 100 oder 150 m nicht ungewöhnlich sind. Das Gewicht kann bei über 100 t liegen.The pipes can have considerable lengths, with 100 or 150 meters being not uncommon. The weight can be over 100 t.

Es ist offensichtlich, dass entsprechende Schwertransporter benötigt werden, um derartige rohrförmige Körper transportieren zu können. Die rohrförmigen Körper werden zum Aufbau von Rohrleitungen, aber auch als Ständer für Bauwerke und dergleichen eingesetzt.It is obvious that appropriate heavy transporters are needed to transport such tubular body can. The tubular bodies are used for the construction of pipelines, but also as a stand for structures and the like.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt hier eine Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren zum Transport der rohrförmigen Körper anzugehen, welches mit einfachen Mitteln möglichst flexibel durchgeführt werden kann. Darüber hinaus sollen die erforderlichen Hebe- und Transportvorgänge minimiert werden.The object of the present invention is to address a method for transporting the tubular body, which can be carried out as flexibly as possible by simple means. In addition, the required lifting and transport operations should be minimized.

Zur technischen Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird ein Verfahren mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 vorgeschlagen. Weitere Vorteile und Merkmale ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.For technical solution of this problem, a method with the features of claim 1 is proposed. Further advantages and features emerge from the Dependent claims.

Gemäß dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren werden die zur transportierenden rohrförmigen Körper beidseitig verschlossen, lösbar zu einem schwimmfähigen Gebinde verbunden und an wenigstens einem Ende mit einem Antrieb versehen, um auf diese Weise möglichst in paketförmigen Einheiten floßähnlich als unterste Lage transportiert zu werden.According to the method according to the invention, the tubular body to be transported closed on both sides, detachably connected to a buoyant container and provided at least one end with a drive to be transported in this way possible in package-like units raft-like as the lowest layer.

Dabei genügt es, dass zumindest die rohrförmigen Körper, die direkt ins Wasser eintauchen oder mit Wasser in Berührung kommen, verbunden werden. Höhere Lagen können bei mehrlagigem Aufbau auch offen sein. Das Versehen mit einem Antrieb kann auf einfachste Weise durch die Verbindung mit einem Schlepper, ein Schubverbund oder dergleichen erfolgen. Es kann aber auch eine schwimmfähige Antriebseinheit verwendet oder eine eigene Antriebseinheit angeordnet werden.It is sufficient that at least the tubular body, which dive directly into the water or come into contact with water, are connected. Higher layers can also be open in multi-layered construction. The provision of a drive can be done in the simplest way by the connection with a tractor, a push assembly or the like. However, it is also possible to use a floatable drive unit or to arrange a separate drive unit.

Die rohrförmigen Körper können in mehreren Lagen übereinander gestapelt transportiert werden. Dabei können die Lagen so ausgebildet werden, dass sich ein erforderlicher maximaler Tiefgang und/oder eine maximale Transporthöhe ergeben. Auf diese Weise kann auf die Randbedingungen der Transportwege, auf Wassertiefen, Brückenhöhen und dergleichen Rücksicht genommen werden.The tubular bodies can be transported in several layers stacked one above the other. The layers can be formed so that there is a required maximum draft and / or a maximum transport height. In this way, consideration can be given to the boundary conditions of the transport routes, to water depths, bridge heights and the like.

Die Verbindung der rohrförmigen Körper erfolgt beispielsweise durch Seile, Netze, vorzugsweise aber auch durch Hakengestelle oder sonstige Verbindungselemente. Auch liegt es im Rahmen der Erfindung, rohrförmige Körper zumindest für den Transport durch Schweißen oder dergleichen zu verbinden, wenn dadurch nicht die Oberflächeneigenschaften geschädigt werden.The connection of the tubular body takes place for example by ropes, nets, but preferably also by hook racks or other connecting elements. It is also within the scope of the invention to connect tubular body at least for transport by welding or the like, if it does not damage the surface properties.

In erfindungsgemäßer Weise kann eine Bugeinheit und/oder eine Heckeinheit so ausgebildet sein, dass sie direkt mit der Stirnfläche eines Gebindes verbunden wird. Auf diese Weise kann das Gebinde auch strömungstechnisch optimiert ausgebildet werden und insbesondere mit geringerem Energieaufwand wirtschaftlich transportiert werden. Die Bugeinheiten und Heckeinheiten ebenso wie die Gebinde selbst können mit den erforderlichen Ankern, Beschlägen und dergleichen Ausrüstungen gemäß BINSCHVO, SCHSV und weiteren nationalen und internationalen Vorschriften versehen sein. Die Bug- und/oder Heckeinheiten können Eigenantriebe aufweisen und/oder einfach zur Verbindung mit einem Schubverbund, einem Schlepper oder einem sonstigen Antriebsschiff vorgesehen sein.In accordance with the invention, a filling unit and / or a rear unit may be designed such that it is connected directly to the end face of a container. In this way, the container can also be designed aerodynamically optimized and in particular be transported economically with less energy. The Bugeinheiten and tail units as well as the container itself can be provided with the necessary anchors, fittings and the like equipment according to BINSCHVO, SCHSV and other national and international regulations. The bow and / or tail units may have self-propelled and / or easy to Connection to be provided with a shear composite, a tractor or other drive ship.

In erfindungsgemäßer Weise können die Bug- und Heckeinheiten derart ausgebildet sein, dass am Transportziel beide Einheiten vom Gebinde gelöst werden. Die Verbindung mit dem Gebinde kann durch Seile, Beschläge, durch Verbindung von Bug- und Heckeinheiten miteinander und dergleichen insbesondere kraftschlüssig erfolgen. Vor Ort werden Bug- und/oder Heckeinheit wieder von Gebinde gelöst. Bei Vorliegen von Bug- und Heckeinheiten können diese so ausgebildet sein, dass diese sich wiederum zu einem schwimmfähigen transportablen Element in Form eines Sonderfahrzeuges miteinander verbinden lassen.In accordance with the invention, the bow and tail units can be designed such that at the transport destination both units are detached from the container. The connection with the container can be effected by ropes, fittings, by connecting bow and tail units with each other and the like in particular non-positively. On-site bow and / or tail unit are again detached from containers. In the presence of bow and stern units, these can be designed so that they in turn can be connected together to form a buoyant transportable element in the form of a special vehicle.

Auch kann vorgesehen sein, dass derartige Einheiten entsprechende Gestelle und dergleichen aufnehmen, um diese rücktransportieren zu können.It can also be provided that such units receive corresponding racks and the like in order to be able to transport them back.
