  • A first embodiment of the present invention provides a protection device for an offshore support platform, which comprises at least two protection rings 3 arranged from top to bottom with a spacing therebetween, the protection rings 3 are configured to surround the periphery of the support columns 2 of the offshore support platform, the protection rings 3 can be fixedly connected to the support columns 2 via various types of connectors, and the offshore support platform can be configured to support the offshore wind turbine generator. The protection device further comprises a first connection beam 4 between the protection rings 3, or a plurality of first connection beams 4 connecting in parallel the protection rings 3 with spacing.
  • Number and spacing of protection rings 3 can be determined depending on the wave size of the practical sea area, if the wave load of a sea area throughout the year is big, then the number of the protection rings 3 is increased or the spacing between the protection rings 3 is reduced, for better reducing energy of the wave. In particular, in this embodiment, the number of the protection rings 3 can be three, and three protection rings 3 can be concentrically arranged from top to bottom with spacing. Of course, the number of protection rings 3 also can be two, four or more.
  • The diameters of different protection rings 3 can be the same or different, and the cross-sectional dimension of different protection rings 3 can be the same or different, for example, when the protection device is arranged on the periphery of the support columns 2, the area of the surface of the protection rings 3 facing the sea waves can be greater than that of the opposite surface of the protection rings 3 facing away from the sea waves, so as to improve the capability of the protection rings 3 to weaken intensity of wave load.

  • It should be noted that, further improvements to the protection device can be made on the basis of the above embodiment.
  • In the protection rings 3 arranged with spacing, the diameters of different protection rings 3 increase from upper protection ring to lower protection ring, and the diameters of the protection rings 3 can gradually increase in proportion, so as to weaken intensity of wave load even more. The protection rings 3 are arranged concentrically, such that the protection rings 3 can be subjected to the wave load more evenly.

In addition, since the outer ring edge of the protection ring 3 is lower than the inner ring edge, that is, the cross section of the protection ring 3 has a downward angle, the above structure can generate a downward vertical pressure when waves act on the outer annulus surface of the protection ring 3, thereby further improve the stability of offshore support platform.
