Description
本發明相關於船用傳送設備與方法,用於在船體與離岸結構之間傳送物體,以及更明確相關於用於單樁離岸結構之船用傳送設備與方法,該單樁離岸結構諸如具備單樁基座之風渦輪發電機。The present invention relates to marine conveying equipment and methods for conveying objects between the hull and offshore structures, and more specifically to marine conveying equipment and methods for monopile offshore structures, such as Wind turbine generator with single pile foundation.
在船體(諸如,船隻)與固定離岸結構之間傳送物體(諸如,人或物品)可以是一件具挑戰性且危險之過程。由風或湧浪造成之海水波浪會對船體作用,使船相對於離岸結構移動。明確而言,當波通過時,船體之運動可能是複雜且難以預測的,因為船體可同時受旋轉運動(諸如翻轉,滾轉和偏轉)與平移運動(諸如起伏,搖擺和縱移)的影響。在若干情況下,可能可透過將船體驅入離岸結構之登船區以將船體推至基座上,從而將諸如滾轉、偏轉與搖擺、縱移等運動最小化。然而,難以減輕垂直運動。此等垂直運動特別危險,因為當人員試圖從船體過渡到例如設置在離岸結構外部的靜態梯子上時,有將人員夾在船隻和該結構之間的風險。Transferring objects (such as people or objects) between a hull (such as a ship) and a fixed offshore structure can be a challenging and dangerous process. Sea waves caused by wind or swells will act on the hull of the ship and move the ship relative to the offshore structure. Specifically, when waves pass, the motion of the hull may be complicated and unpredictable, because the hull can be subjected to both rotational motion (such as overturning, rolling, and yaw) and translational motion (such as heaving, rolling, and longitudinal movement). Impact. In some cases, it may be possible to push the hull onto the base by driving the hull into the embarkation area of the offshore structure, thereby minimizing motions such as rolling, yaw and sway, and longitudinal movement. However, it is difficult to reduce the vertical movement. Such vertical movement is particularly dangerous because when a person tries to transition from the hull to, for example, a static ladder provided on the outside of an offshore structure, there is a risk of trapping the person between the ship and the structure.
先前已經採用各種方法以為了解決上述問題。例如,在若干情況下可使用直昇機,如透過降落在結構本身上的平台上或透過人員自直昇機垂降到平台上。然而,直昇機操作昂貴且僅能夠登陸在極大平台上,諸如設置在鑽油平台上者。在高風量與可視性差之情況時,直昇機亦是不適當的,且在垂降是必須的情況下此等限制會有更顯著。其他解決方案包括在船體和平台之間使用運動補償舷梯,儘管這些舷梯僅適用於大型船舶,因此相應的增加了費用和復雜性。最後,還提出了涉及使用離岸平台上起重機和吊重器等各種技術。在此種系統中,纜線可從離岸平台向下懸掛,且可透過使用該纜線將物體從平台吊起。此種配置典型與距離控制系統使用來控制絞車或吊重機構,以透過使用雷射或超音波感測器來追蹤船體運動來補償船體之運動。然而,此等絞車或吊重機構通常是複雜且無法充分響應以完全減輕船體運動的影響。Various methods have been used to solve the above-mentioned problems. For example, helicopters can be used in certain situations, such as by landing on a platform on the structure itself or by personnel descending from the helicopter to the platform. However, helicopters are expensive to operate and can only be landed on extremely large platforms, such as those installed on oil drilling platforms. In the case of high air volume and poor visibility, the helicopter is also inappropriate, and these restrictions will be more pronounced when rappelling is necessary. Other solutions include the use of motion-compensated gangways between the hull and the platform, although these gangways are only suitable for large ships and therefore increase the cost and complexity accordingly. Finally, various technologies involving the use of cranes and hoists on offshore platforms are also proposed. In such a system, the cable can be suspended downward from the offshore platform, and objects can be hoisted from the platform by using the cable. This configuration is typically used with a distance control system to control a winch or hoisting mechanism to compensate for the motion of the hull by using laser or ultrasonic sensors to track the motion of the hull. However, such winches or hoisting mechanisms are usually complicated and cannot fully respond to completely reduce the impact of hull motion.
在用於單樁基座結構之傳送系統的情況下,且更明確在離岸風渦輪結構之情況下,上述問題會特別惡化。首先,單樁基座結構較小,且因此具有較小的登船區與維修平台。這使得較大規模的傳送系統(用於進出諸如鑽油平台等較大結構所使用者)是不適用的。此外,由於單樁基座結構是無人駐守,因此會難以實作倚賴在平台處主動控制起重機與絞車之系統。舉例而言,從船體遠端控制此等機器會導致新的安全性與維護問題之發生。In the case of a conveying system used in a mono-pile foundation structure, and more clearly in the case of an offshore wind turbine structure, the above-mentioned problems will be particularly exacerbated. First, the monopile foundation structure is small, and therefore has a small boarding area and maintenance platform. This makes larger-scale conveyor systems (used to enter and exit users of larger structures such as oil drilling platforms) unsuitable. In addition, since the monopile foundation structure is unmanned, it is difficult to implement a system that relies on the active control of the crane and winch at the platform. For example, controlling these machines from the far end of the hull will lead to new safety and maintenance issues.
據此,有解決上述問題(且特別是針對與單樁離岸結構有關的具體技術考量的問題)之經改善船用傳送設備的需求。Accordingly, there is a need for improved marine conveying equipment to solve the above-mentioned problems (and especially for the specific technical considerations related to the single-pile offshore structure).
根據本發明之第一態樣,提供一種用於在受波浪影響的船體與離岸結構之間傳送物體的船用傳送設備,該設備包含:傳送纜線,透過使用該纜線可將該物體上升與下降;結構耦合件,用於將該傳送纜線連接到該離岸結構上設置的附接點;船體耦合件,用於將該傳送纜線連接到該船體;以及其中,該傳送纜線是彈性可延伸,用於當該船體在波浪上運動所造成在該結構與該船體耦合件之間拉緊時會延伸其長度;以及其中,該結構與該船體耦合件中一者包含捲動裝置,用於當該傳送纜線連接於該結構與該船體耦合件之間時在拉緊狀態與鬆弛狀態之間捲動該傳送纜線。According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a marine conveying device for conveying objects between a hull affected by waves and an offshore structure. The device includes: a conveying cable, which can be used to convey the object. Ascending and descending; a structural coupling for connecting the transmission cable to an attachment point provided on the offshore structure; a hull coupling for connecting the transmission cable to the hull; and wherein the The transmission cable is elastically extendable, and is used to extend the length of the structure and the hull coupling when the hull is stretched between the structure and the hull coupling when the hull moves on waves; and wherein, the structure and the hull coupling One of them includes a rolling device for rolling the transmission cable between a tensioned state and a relaxed state when the transmission cable is connected between the structure and the hull coupling.
透過此方式,當該傳送纜線連接在該結構與船體之間時,該捲動裝置允許控制該纜線中的張力,以在拉緊狀態與鬆弛狀態之間進行切換。這具有將運動參考點從船體切換到離岸結構的效果。更詳盡描述其,在拉緊狀態中,傳送纜線之彈性可延伸性允許該纜線可隨著在海浪中船體的運動進行延伸與收縮。如此一來,當物體耦合到傳送纜線時,該物體與纜線放長度上的延伸和收縮一致地移動,因此其運動與該船體之運動耦合。換言之,相對於船體之參考點,傳送纜線係有效靜態。結果導致物體得以自船體安全上(ascend)傳送纜線,也可安全下(descend)傳送纜線到該船體上。相反的,當捲動裝置***作以將傳送纜線置於鬆弛狀態時,纜線之第二端部處之鬆弛適應(accommodate)波浪中船體之運動,而其非被纜線延伸部分所適應。如此,傳送纜線從結構之附接點向下懸掛而不會受船體運動影響。換言之,相對於離岸結構之參考點,傳送纜線係有效靜態。結果造成物體得以自結構之平台安全上(ascend)傳送纜線,也可安全下( descend )傳送纜線到該結構之平台上。在此應瞭解的是即便當捲動裝置***作已將傳送纜線置於鬆弛狀態時,物體連接點與其對結構之附接之間的區段仍可以是拉緊,因為物體的重量會固有地將纜線拉緊。然而,整體而言傳送纜線是在鬆弛狀態,其中波浪中船體之運動是由多餘的纜線所適應,而非由延伸長度之纜線所適應。In this way, when the transmission cable is connected between the structure and the hull, the rolling device allows the tension in the cable to be controlled to switch between the tensioned state and the relaxed state. This has the effect of switching the motion reference point from the hull to the offshore structure. To describe it in more detail, in the tensioned state, the elastic extensibility of the transmission cable allows the cable to extend and contract with the movement of the hull in the ocean waves. In this way, when an object is coupled to the transmission cable, the object moves in accordance with the extension and contraction of the cable length, so its motion is coupled with the motion of the hull. In other words, the transmission cable is effectively static with respect to the reference point of the hull. As a result, the object can be safely transferred from the hull of the ship (ascend) to the cable, and can also be safely transferred (descend) to the hull of the ship. Conversely, when the rolling device is operated to place the transmission cable in a relaxed state, the slack at the second end of the cable accommodates the movement of the hull in the waves, and it is not affected by the extension of the cable. adapt. In this way, the transmission cable is suspended downward from the attachment point of the structure without being affected by the movement of the hull. In other words, the transmission cable is effectively static relative to the reference point of the offshore structure. As a result, the object can be safely transferred from the structure's platform (ascend) to the cable, and it can also be safely transferred (descend) to the structure's platform. It should be understood here that even when the rolling device is operated to place the transmission cable in a relaxed state, the section between the object connection point and its attachment to the structure can still be taut, because the weight of the object will inherently Pull the cable tightly. However, as a whole, the transmission cable is in a relaxed state, in which the movement of the hull in the waves is accommodated by the excess cable, rather than by the extended length of the cable.
據此,透過上述船用傳送設備,可達成從船體(以及從任何尺寸之聯絡船)到離岸結構之安全進出而無須使用登船區或梯子。應了解,捲動裝置可透過收放區段之傳送纜線以將傳送纜線在拉緊與鬆弛狀態之間切換,例如透過將傳送纜線纏繞到圓柱上或透過使用例如活塞致動器的滑輪裝置將纜線拉出。Accordingly, through the above-mentioned marine transmission equipment, safe entry and exit from the hull (and from the liaison ship of any size) to the offshore structure can be achieved without the use of boarding areas or ladders. It should be understood that the scrolling device can switch the transmission cable between tension and relaxation by retracting the transmission cable of the section, such as by winding the transmission cable on a cylinder or by using a piston actuator such as Pull out the cable by the pulley device.
較佳的,該傳送纜線包含可延伸區以及不可延伸區。透過此方式,纜線之可延伸區可提供傳送纜線總體長度之彈性延伸,另方面當在拉緊狀態時不可延伸區能夠與船體移動並在上升操作過程中被載體固持並裝載時,可抵抗拉伸,從而使上升更為容易。Preferably, the transmission cable includes an extendable area and an inextensible area. In this way, the extendable area of the cable can provide elastic extension of the overall length of the transmission cable. On the other hand, when the non-extendable area can move with the hull in the tensioned state and be held and loaded by the carrier during the ascent operation, Can resist stretching, making it easier to ascend.
較佳的,該傳送纜線之該可延伸區是位於或相鄰該結構耦合件。透過此方式,傳送纜線之延伸專注在最靠近其對該結構之附接點的纜線之區段內。同時,相鄰該船體之不可延伸區能夠與船體一起移動,同時提供不可拉伸材料用於促進較容易的上升。Preferably, the extendable area of the transmission cable is located at or adjacent to the structural coupling. In this way, the extension of the transmission cable is focused on the section of the cable closest to its attachment point to the structure. At the same time, the non-extensible area adjacent to the hull can move together with the hull, and at the same time, non-stretchable materials are provided to promote easier ascent.
較佳的,該可延伸區包含彈性纜線區段或彈簧。透過此方式,傳送纜線可由兩個功能部件構成,該兩部件接合以形成纜線之長度。因此,可使用彈性材料或彈簧以直觀方式形成該可延伸區。該不可延伸區可接著以鋼或聚合物纜線、或網狀帶等形式被設置,並接合到可延伸區之彈性或彈簧材料。Preferably, the extendable area includes an elastic cable section or a spring. In this way, the transmission cable can be composed of two functional parts that are joined to form the length of the cable. Therefore, an elastic material or a spring can be used to form the extendable area in an intuitive manner. The non-extensible zone can then be provided in the form of steel or polymer cables, or mesh belts, etc., and joined to the elastic or spring material of the extensible zone.
較佳的,該捲動裝置包含絞車。透過此方式,當捲取在絞車圓柱上時,傳送纜線之縮回區段可固持在緊縮配置中。同時,絞車圓柱之旋轉位置可鎖住固定以維持傳送纜線在拉緊狀態下,並且快速放出纜線以切換到鬆弛狀態。Preferably, the rolling device includes a winch. In this way, the retracted section of the transmission cable can be held in a compressed configuration when it is wound on the winch cylinder. At the same time, the rotation position of the winch column can be locked and fixed to maintain the transmission cable in a tensioned state, and quickly release the cable to switch to a slack state.
較佳的,該船體耦合件包含該捲動裝置。透過此方式,可在船體上設置在拉緊與鬆弛狀態之間切換的致動,允許局部控制與維護。Preferably, the hull coupling includes the scrolling device. In this way, an actuation that switches between tension and relaxation can be provided on the hull, allowing local control and maintenance.
較佳的,該設備更包含載體,該載體耦合到該傳送纜線,用於移動該傳送纜線上的該物體。透過此方式,物體可附接到載體,其可轉而被驅動以上或下該纜線。該載體可被人工驅動,例如諸如攀登上升器/下降器。在其他實施例中,載體可包含自動或從船體供電的升降機構。Preferably, the device further includes a carrier coupled to the transmission cable for moving the object on the transmission cable. In this way, the object can be attached to the carrier, which in turn can be driven up or down the cable. The carrier can be driven manually, such as climbing ascenders/descenders, for example. In other embodiments, the carrier may include a lifting mechanism that is automatically or powered from the hull.
較佳的,該船體耦合件包含釋放裝置,用於快速釋放該傳送纜線中的張力。透過此方式,在船體在水中的過度運動導致傳送纜線承受的拉力超過拉力極限之情況中,則釋放裝置可操作以快速釋放該拉力。為了達到此功效,釋放裝置可快速從捲動裝置放出纜線及/或斷開傳送纜線與船體的連接。藉此提供一種重要的安全特徵,以將人員受傷的風險最小化,其否則可能由設備、船體及/或離岸結構內組件之損壞或故障所導致。Preferably, the hull coupling includes a release device for quickly releasing the tension in the transmission cable. In this way, in the case where the excessive movement of the hull in the water causes the pulling force of the transmission cable to exceed the pulling force limit, the release device can be operated to quickly release the pulling force. In order to achieve this effect, the release device can quickly release the cable from the rolling device and/or disconnect the transmission cable from the hull. This provides an important safety feature to minimize the risk of personal injury, which may otherwise be caused by damage or failure of the equipment, the hull and/or the components in the offshore structure.
較佳的,該結構耦合件包含遠端釋放機構,用於將該傳送纜線從儲藏位置釋放到釋放位置,在該釋放位置中該傳送纜線之該第二端部可附接到該船體耦合件。透過此方式,該傳送纜線可以被儲藏在離岸結構上,耦合到附接點,並且當需要時由船體遠端釋放。舉例而言,傳送纜線可被儲藏在附接點處之防風雨箱,並且接著透過致動閂來將門開啟及將傳送纜線之第二端下放來將纜線釋放。Preferably, the structural coupling includes a distal release mechanism for releasing the transmission cable from the storage position to a release position, in which the second end of the transmission cable can be attached to the ship Body coupling. In this way, the transmission cable can be stored on an offshore structure, coupled to an attachment point, and released by the distal end of the hull when needed. For example, the transmission cable can be stored in a weatherproof box at the attachment point, and then release the cable by activating the latch to open the door and lower the second end of the transmission cable.
較佳的,該離岸結構是單樁離岸結構。本發明之實施例特別適用於與單樁離岸結構一起使用。舉例而言,該設備可與較小船體一起使用,因為控制可以被實作在船體側,故平台側無須有人員。Preferably, the offshore structure is a single-pile offshore structure. The embodiments of the present invention are particularly suitable for use with mono-pile offshore structures. For example, the device can be used with smaller hulls, because the control can be implemented on the hull side, so there is no need for personnel on the platform side.
在實施例中,船用傳送設備更包含用於自連接到該離岸結構之次要繩索附接點懸掛之次要繩索,該次要繩索用於連接到攀爬輔助裝置用於驅動該物體上該傳送纜線。透過此方式,當傳送纜線處於鬆弛狀態時,透過使用攀爬輔助裝置,次要繩索可用以驅動上升操作。有利的,由於次要繩索的自由端沒有拉緊,因此這允許在本發明的實施例中使用更多種類的攀爬輔助裝置。應瞭解,次要繩索附接點可以是結構耦合件之部分或可設置在離岸結構上相同附接點處,該傳送纜線耦合到該離岸結構。替代地,次要繩索也可附接到其傳送纜線本身,並且藉此透過傳送纜線連接到離岸結構。也應瞭解,用於驅動該物體之機構(諸如載體及/或攀爬輔助裝置)可以被供電或人工操作。In an embodiment, the marine conveying equipment further includes a secondary rope for hanging from a secondary rope attachment point connected to the offshore structure, the secondary rope being connected to a climbing assist device for driving the object The transmission cable. In this way, when the transmission cable is in a slack state, the secondary rope can be used to drive the ascent operation by using the climbing assist device. Advantageously, since the free end of the secondary rope is not taut, this allows a wider variety of climbing aids to be used in embodiments of the invention. It should be understood that the secondary rope attachment point may be part of the structural coupling or may be provided at the same attachment point on the offshore structure to which the transmission cable is coupled. Alternatively, the secondary rope can also be attached to its transmission cable itself, and thereby connected to the offshore structure through the transmission cable. It should also be understood that the mechanism used to drive the object (such as the carrier and/or climbing aid) can be powered or manually operated.
根據本發明之第二態樣,提供一種透過使用如請求項1至11中任一項所述之設備從受波浪影響的船體傳送物體到離岸結構之方法,該方法包含:將該傳送纜線連接於該結構耦合件與該船體耦合件之間;操作該捲動裝置以將該傳送纜線捲動到拉緊狀態;操作耦合到該傳送纜線之載體以移動該物體上該傳送纜線,從該船體到高位(elevated position);操作該捲動裝置以將該傳送纜線捲動到鬆弛狀態;以及操作該載體以移動該物體從該高位到該離岸結構上之平台。According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for transferring an object from a hull affected by waves to an offshore structure by using the equipment described in any one of
透過此方式,當物體首先從船體上升時,其中傳送纜線在拉緊狀態中,該傳送纜線之彈性可延伸性允許該纜線可相對於在海浪中船體的運動進行延伸與收縮。如此,該物體可安全上升遠離船體。一旦該物體到達高位,其可以在平台上方或不在平台上方且在船體上方,捲動裝置可接著操作以將傳送纜線置於鬆弛狀態。在此條件下,傳送纜線不再隨著船體移動,允許物體可安全下降或進一步上升到達結構之平台上。此外,從捲動裝置放出傳送纜線之動作也可用以提升物體。明確而言,透過在拉緊時將載體鎖定到傳送纜線上,然後從捲動裝置中放出一區段之纜線,可延伸區的相應收縮將作用以將物體抬離船體。一旦適當提高後,載體可接著操作以允許傳送纜線之進一步上升,例如透過直接驅動纜線或結合使用與次要繩索嚙合之攀爬輔助裝置。In this way, when the object first rises from the hull, where the transmission cable is in a tensioned state, the elastic extensibility of the transmission cable allows the cable to extend and contract with respect to the motion of the hull in the waves . In this way, the object can safely rise away from the hull. Once the object reaches a high position, it may be above the platform or not above the platform and above the hull, and the rolling device can then be operated to place the transfer cable in a relaxed state. Under this condition, the transmission cable no longer moves with the hull, allowing the object to safely descend or rise further to reach the platform of the structure. In addition, the action of releasing the transmission cable from the scrolling device can also be used to lift the object. Specifically, by locking the carrier to the transmission cable during tensioning, and then releasing a section of the cable from the rolling device, the corresponding contraction of the extendable area will act to lift the object away from the hull. Once properly raised, the carrier can then be operated to allow the transmission cable to rise further, for example by directly driving the cable or in combination with a climbing aid that engages with a secondary rope.
較佳的,該高位在離岸結構上的平台上方,且該載體操作以移動該物體下該傳送纜線,從該高位向下移動到該離岸結構上之該平台。Preferably, the high position is above the platform on the offshore structure, and the carrier is operated to move the object under the transmission cable from the high position down to the platform on the offshore structure.
較佳的,該方法更包含從船體耦合件釋放傳送纜線之第二端部的步驟。透過此方式,船體可移動遠離該結構以完成其他操作。一旦捲動裝置已將傳送纜線捲到鬆弛狀態時,或者一旦物體已經從高位下降到平台上或上升到平台上時,該傳送纜線之第二端部可以被釋放。Preferably, the method further includes the step of releasing the second end of the transmission cable from the hull coupling. In this way, the hull can be moved away from the structure to complete other operations. Once the reeling device has rolled the conveying cable to a relaxed state, or once the object has been lowered or raised onto the platform from a high position, the second end of the conveying cable can be released.
根據本發明之第三態樣,提供一種透過使用上述設備從離岸結構傳送物體到船體之方法,該方法包含:操作耦合到該傳送纜線之載體,當該傳送纜線是在鬆弛狀態時將該傳送纜線上之該物體從該離岸結構上的平台移動到高位;一旦該物體在該高位時,操作該捲動裝置以將該傳送纜線捲動到拉緊狀態,連接於該結構與該船體耦合件之間;以及,操作該載體以移動該物體下該傳送纜線,從該高位向下移動到該船體。According to a third aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for transferring objects from an offshore structure to a hull by using the above-mentioned equipment, the method comprising: operating a carrier coupled to the transfer cable, when the transfer cable is in a relaxed state When the object on the transmission cable is moved from the platform on the offshore structure to a high position; once the object is in the high position, the rolling device is operated to roll the transmission cable to a tensioned state, and is connected to the Between the structure and the hull coupling; and, operating the carrier to move the object under the transmission cable, moving down from the high position to the hull.
透過此方式,當要將物體傳送回船體時,能夠從平台安全上爬到該高位,其中相對於該平台,該傳送纜線沒有移動。一旦該物體到達高位,其可以在平台上方或不在平台上方且在船體上方,捲動裝置可接著操作以將傳送纜線置於拉緊狀態。在此條件下,傳送纜線連同船體移動,允許物體可安全下降到達該船體上。應瞭解,在操作該載體之前或者一旦該物體已經上升到該高位時,該傳送纜線可被連接到該船體耦合件。In this way, when the object is to be transported back to the hull, it is possible to safely climb from the platform to the high position, where the transport cable does not move relative to the platform. Once the object reaches a high position, it may be above the platform or not above the platform and above the hull, and the rolling device can then be operated to place the transmission cable in a tensioned state. Under this condition, the transmission cable moves together with the hull, allowing objects to be safely descended to reach the hull. It should be understood that the transmission cable may be connected to the hull coupling before operating the carrier or once the object has risen to the high position.
較佳的,該高位是在該離岸結構上的該平台上方。Preferably, the high position is above the platform on the offshore structure.
較佳的,該方法更包含從船體耦合件釋放傳送纜線之第二端部。透過此方式,一旦該物體已經安全到達船體時,船體可移動遠離該結構以完成其他操作。Preferably, the method further includes releasing the second end of the transmission cable from the hull coupling. In this way, once the object has safely reached the hull, the hull can move away from the structure to complete other operations.
在實施例中,上述方法可進一步包含下述步驟:設置次要繩索,其自連接到該離岸結構之次要繩索附接點懸掛;將攀爬輔助裝置連接到該次要繩索;以及操作該攀爬輔助裝置以驅動該傳送纜線上該物體之運動。透過此方式,透過使用攀爬輔助裝置,次要繩索可用以驅動上升操作。有利的,由於次要繩索的自由端沒有拉緊,因此這允許在本發明的實施例中使用更多種類的攀爬輔助裝置。應瞭解,次要繩索附接點可以是結構耦合件之部分或可設置在離岸結構上相同附接點處或設置在傳送纜線本身上,該傳送纜線耦合到該離岸結構。In an embodiment, the above method may further include the steps of: setting a secondary rope, which is suspended from a secondary rope attachment point connected to the offshore structure; connecting a climbing aid to the secondary rope; and operating The climbing assist device drives the movement of the object on the transmission cable. In this way, through the use of climbing aids, the secondary rope can be used to drive the ascent. Advantageously, since the free end of the secondary rope is not taut, this allows a wider variety of climbing aids to be used in embodiments of the invention. It should be understood that the secondary rope attachment point may be part of the structural coupling or may be provided at the same attachment point on the offshore structure or on the transmission cable itself to which the transmission cable is coupled.
較佳的,該離岸結構是單樁離岸結構。上述方法特別可應用到單樁離岸結構。Preferably, the offshore structure is a single-pile offshore structure. The above method is particularly applicable to single-pile offshore structures.

圖1(a)示出根據本發明實施例的船用傳送設備之示意圖。船用傳送設備用於在船體6與離岸結構10之間傳送物體7(諸如,人或物品),該離岸結構在本情況下為單樁風渦輪發電機。如將理解,船體6(諸如船隻(boat、ship))受海9中波浪之影響,這會導致船體位置相對於靜態參考點(諸如,單樁風渦輪發電機10)而言會動態改變。Fig. 1(a) shows a schematic diagram of a marine conveying equipment according to an embodiment of the present invention. The marine transfer equipment is used to transfer objects 7 (such as persons or objects) between the
船用傳送設備包含傳送纜線1,該傳送纜線包括可延伸區3與不可延伸區2。可延伸區3是彈性可延伸且位於傳送纜線1之第一端部並經由耦合件4連接到設置在平台11上方風渦輪發電機10本體上設置的掛鉤臂12。如此,掛鉤臂12提供用於風渦輪發電機10之附接點。掛鉤臂12可設置成搖臂,允許較輕易進出平台11。在本實施例中,可延伸區3被設置成拉伸彈簧,雖然其他實施例可使用其他的配置(諸如其他類型之彈簧、彈性材料、或活塞配置)。不可延伸區2被接合到可延伸區3且位於傳送纜線1之第二端部並經由耦合件5連接到船體6。在本實施例中,不可延伸區2被設置成尼龍纜線,雖然其他實施例可使用其他的材料,諸如其他聚合物繩索或鋼線。The marine transmission equipment includes a
容器耦合件5將該傳送纜線1之第二端部連接到該船體6,且容器耦合件5包含捲動裝置8,用於捲動該傳送纜線1。在本實施例中,捲動裝置8設置成絞車,雖然其他機構也被設想。捲動裝置8可縮回與放出傳送纜線1之區段,諸如當傳送纜線1在結構耦合件4與船體耦合件5之間連接時,該纜線可在拉緊狀態與鬆弛狀態之間進行切換。The
當傳送纜線1在拉緊狀態中時,其在結構耦合件4與船體耦合件5之間被拉緊。然而,彈性可延伸區3是足夠可延伸的,以適應船體6在海9中的運動。如此,當船體相對於風渦輪發電機10向下移動時,彈性可延伸區3被進一步拉伸,並且當船體6相對於風渦輪發電機10向上移動時,彈性可延伸區3可縮回。在此狀態下,不可延伸區2因此隨著船體6之垂直運動而上下移動。When the
將參照圖1(a)至(d)說明使用例示性實施例之上升操作。如圖1(a)所示,船體6可到達風渦輪發電機10,並且亦可可選地推到單樁基座上以將其運動最小化。在此階段,可使用遠端觸發器,將傳送纜線1從設置在掛鉤臂12上的防風雨箱中儲藏位置予以釋放。這會造成傳送纜線1之第二端部向下掉到船體6上,其中第一端部經由結構耦合件4而連接到掛鉤臂12,以及該懸掛纜線1呈現鬆弛狀。傳送纜線1之第二端部可接著被連接到船體耦合件5之捲動裝置8。應瞭解,雖然在本實施例中傳送纜線1是被保持在結構耦合件4處,其他配置亦可被設想。舉例而言,在另一實施例中,傳送纜線1被保持在船體耦合件5處且結構耦合件4設置有引導繩索,該引導繩索用於連接傳送纜線1。使用此等配置之優勢在於每船體僅需要一個傳送纜線1與一個載體裝置13,且在風渦輪發電機10處所需之安裝與維修被最小化。The ascending operation using the exemplary embodiment will be explained with reference to FIGS. 1(a) to (d). As shown in Figure 1(a), the
在圖1(b),驅動捲動裝置8以捲入傳送纜線1,使得該纜線在船體耦合件5與結構耦合件4之間呈拉緊狀。在此狀態下,不可延伸區2隨著船體6之垂直運動而上下移動,而彈性可延伸區3適應此運動。In FIG. 1( b ), the rolling
如圖1(c)所示,透過使用載體13(諸如攀爬上升器/下降器),物體7可接著上傳送纜線1之不可延伸區2。一旦物體已上升到平台11上方之高位,捲動裝置8可接著***作以捲出傳送纜線1以在物體7和船體6之間引入鬆弛。As shown in FIG. 1(c), by using a carrier 13 (such as a climbing ascender/descender), the
如圖1(d)所示,由於傳送纜線1在物體7和船體6之間是鬆弛,其不再隨船體6移動。如此一來,透過操作載體13,物體7可安全下降到平台11上。As shown in Fig. 1(d), since the
現在將參照圖2(a)至(d)說明使用例示性實施例之下降操作。如圖2(a)所示,船體6將其自身定位在風渦輪發電機10處,並且可以可選地推到單樁基座上以將其運動最小化。在此初始階段,傳送纜線1在鬆弛狀態下,無論因為其尚未連接到捲動裝置8或因為捲動裝置8***作以將傳送纜線1置於鬆弛狀態。圖2(a)示出其中傳送纜線1已經連接到捲動裝置8且捲動裝置8***作已將傳送纜線1置於鬆弛狀態之情況。The lowering operation using the exemplary embodiment will now be explained with reference to FIGS. 2(a) to (d). As shown in Figure 2(a), the
載體13接著耦合到鬆弛的傳送纜線1,以及如圖2(b)所示,載體13***作以提升物體7以從平台11上傳送纜線1。The
一旦物體7到達圖2(c)所示之高位,捲動裝置8操作以捲入該傳送纜線1到拉緊狀態。應瞭解,若傳送纜線1尚未已連接到捲動裝置8,則需要先將其連接才能將其捲入。Once the
如圖2(d)所示,由於傳送纜線1是拉緊,其將隨著船體6移動,藉此允許物體7可以從高位安全下降到船體6。As shown in Fig. 2(d), since the
據此,透過使用以上配置,用於上升或下降物體7之運動參考點可以在船體6與離岸結構10之間進行切換。如此,當物體7是在與船體6相鄰之傳送纜線1上時,物體會與船體6一致移動。相反的,當物體7是在與結構之平台11相鄰之傳送纜線1上時,物體不受船體6之運動所影響。結果導致物體7能夠在船體6與結構之平台11之間安全轉移。較佳的,這可顯著降低人員受傷的風險,且可從任何尺寸的聯絡船6實作,而無須在離岸結構10上設置登船區或梯子。Accordingly, by using the above configuration, the movement reference point for the ascending or descending
應瞭解,以上所描繪實施例僅為了說明目地而示出本發明之應用。在實作上,本發明可應用到許多不同的組態中,對在該技術領域中具有通常知識者而言該詳細實施例應是可清楚思及實作的。It should be understood that the above-described embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and illustrate the application of the present invention. In practice, the present invention can be applied to many different configurations. For those with ordinary knowledge in the technical field, the detailed embodiments should be clearly thought of and implementable.
在此連接中,例如圖3示出根據本發明第二實施例的示意圖。此實施例與圖1與2中所示實施例相似,其中相似參考編號參照共通特徵。然而,在本實施例中,該設備進一步設置有次要繩索14,該繩索從該掛鉤臂12上之夾具向下懸掛。次要繩索14耦合到攀爬輔助裝置15,該攀爬輔助裝置15用以當傳送纜線處於鬆弛狀態下時驅動上升,而不是透過載體13中的機制來驅動。明確而言,載體13設置為附接到物體的防墜落機構。在上升操作期間,當物體沒有被主動驅動時,防墜落機構13支撐物體重量。一旦物體7不在船體6上方且傳送纜線1處於鬆弛狀態下時,攀爬輔助裝置15可接著與次要繩索14嚙合,並被驅動以向上拉拔該物體7。在下降操作期間,防墜落機構13及/或攀爬輔助裝置15可操作以控制下降速度。與第一實施例相同,取決於物體7是相鄰船體6或相鄰結構之平台11,傳送纜線1可在拉緊與鬆弛狀態之間進行切換。重要地,透過此實施例,由於次要繩索14在攀爬輔助裝置15下沒有呈拉緊狀態,故因此可使用更多種的上升裝置。舉例而言,有些攀爬輔助裝置倚賴該嚙合繩索在通過攀爬輔助裝置之繩索引導與張力器總成時要被驅動通過垂直路徑。如此,次要繩索14之設置(自由端從離岸結構懸掛)可以允許本發明實施例可以結合此種攀爬輔助裝置一起使用。In this connection, for example, FIG. 3 shows a schematic diagram according to a second embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is similar to the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, wherein similar reference numbers refer to common features. However, in this embodiment, the device is further provided with a
在以上實例中,次要繩索在掛鉤臂12上之附接點是與結構耦合件4分離的。然而,在其他實施例中,此等附接點可以是相同或彼此相鄰。此外,次要繩索之附接點也可被設置在傳送纜線1之可延伸與不可延伸區段之間的接合處,或被設置在不可延伸區段2本身上。In the above example, the attachment point of the secondary rope on the
在此連接中,圖4示出根據本發明第三實施例之船用傳送設備的示意圖。本第三實施例實質上與圖3中第二實施例相同,除了次要繩索14在該區段之接合處附接到可延伸區段3。亦即,此等功能部件之間的接合包含掛鉤點,用於附接次要繩索14。在其他實施例中,次要繩索14可進一步向下附接到不可延伸區段2。為了簡化說明之目的,次要繩索14被繪製成與傳送纜線1之不可延伸區段2分離。然而,應瞭解在實作上,次要繩索14與不可延伸區段2可彼此實質上平行般向下懸掛,由耦合到不可延伸區段2之載體13和耦合到次要繩索14之攀爬輔助裝置15之間的間隔分隔開。與上述第二實施例相同,由於次要繩索14不連接到捲動裝置,其在攀爬輔助裝置15下方維持鬆弛,且與傳送纜線1是處於拉緊或鬆弛狀態無關。這允許可使用更多種的攀爬輔助裝置,同時有利的當傳送纜線1在其拉緊狀態下時允許次要繩索14可與不可延伸區段2一起移動。In this connection, FIG. 4 shows a schematic diagram of a marine transmission device according to a third embodiment of the present invention. This third embodiment is substantially the same as the second embodiment in FIG. 3, except that the
與傳送纜線1相同,次要繩索14可以固定在掛鉤臂12處,或可固定在船體上並透過使用引導繩索而連接到該結構。此外,次要繩索14可例如由尼龍、其他聚合物繩索與網狀帶、或從鋼線製成。As with the
也應了解,結合上述配置可額外使用安全及/或引導纜線。舉例而言,可在不可延伸區段2與掛鉤臂12之間設置故障防護纜線,以在可延伸區段3故障之情況下安全固定住傳送纜線1。亦即,故障防護纜線可足夠鬆弛以允許可延伸區段3以延伸使用,但在可延伸區段3將要破裂(break)之情況下其提供一種在不可延伸區段2與掛鉤臂12之間的旁通連接。因此,這可確保在纜線故障情況下任何正在攀爬該纜線之人員不會掉落。It should also be understood that safety and/or guide cables can be additionally used in combination with the above configuration. For example, a fail-safe cable can be provided between the
圖5示出根據本發明第四實施例的船用傳送設備之示意圖。在本實施例中,傳送纜線1由彈性可延伸材料製成並連接在船體6與離岸結構10之間。在本實施例中,結構耦合件4被設置具有連接到掛鉤臂12之滑輪。滑輪4將傳送纜線1圍繞並向下饋送至船體6。在船體上,傳送纜線1被連接到耦合件5,該耦合件包含第一與第二捲動裝置8a與8b,用於將若干長度之傳送纜線1捲動進與出用於改變連接在船體耦合件5與結構耦合件4之間的傳送纜線中的張力。Fig. 5 shows a schematic diagram of a marine conveying equipment according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the
在上升操作期間,透過將一區段之傳送纜線1縮回到第一捲動裝置8a中,傳送纜線1被置於拉緊狀態。此時,第二捲動裝置8b可鎖住其端部之傳送纜線1,或額外縮回一區段之傳送纜線1以進一步提高船體耦合件5與結構耦合件4之間的張力。無論如何,與其他實施例相同,即便當傳送纜線1被拉緊於結構耦合件4與船體耦合件5之間時,纜線1亦仍然足夠彈性可延伸,以適應海9中船體6之運動。如此一來,當船體6相對於離岸結構10向下移動時傳送纜線1被進一步拉伸,並且當船體6相對於離岸結構10向上移動時縮回。During the ascending operation, by retracting a section of the
一旦傳送纜線1在拉緊狀態,物體7可被安全固定到傳送纜線1上,例如透過運用諸如繫繩16與防墜落等相關安全設備。該安全設備,例如是繫繩16,抓住傳送纜線1的一部分,並將其鎖定在其上。在此級,第一捲動裝置8a可操作以放出傳送纜線1。當傳送纜線1物質被放出時,拉伸的具張力傳送纜線1收縮,以令由安全設備(例如繫繩16)抓住之傳送纜線1之部分向上朝結構耦合件4移動。這作用以將物體7提升遠離船體6。可透過控制傳送纜線自第一捲動裝置8a放出的速率,以變化上升速率。由於儲在傳送纜線中的彈性能被轉移至將物體7提升,故物體7被提升到在平台11以上的高位。一旦在高位中時,傳送纜線1將為鬆弛狀,且物體7可自傳送纜線1拆離。第二捲動裝置8b可操作以捲出傳送纜線1以對該纜線引入進一步鬆弛,以促進物體下降到平台11上。Once the
在下降期間,透過使用諸如繫繩16與防墜落等相關安全設備,物體7可相似安全固定到傳送纜線1上,且第一捲動裝置8a可操作以捲入傳送纜線1,將傳送纜線轉換成拉緊狀態,其中該纜線將隨船體6移動。During the descent, through the use of related safety equipment such as
與先前實施例相同,用於上升或下降物體7之運動參考點可以在船體6與離岸結構10之間進行切換。如此,當物體7是在與船體6相鄰之傳送纜線1上時,物體會與船體6一致移動。相反的,當物體7是在與結構之平台11相鄰之傳送纜線1上時,物體不受船體6之運動所影響。結果導致物體7能夠在船體6與結構之平台11之間安全轉移。有利的,這可顯著降低人員受傷的風險。As in the previous embodiment, the reference point for the movement of the ascending or descending
應瞭解,亦可在圖5中所示配置中使用上升器/下降器。亦即,上升器/下降器或攀爬輔助裝置可附接到傳送纜線1,且物體7可透過使用此配置沿著傳送纜線1移動。物體7可接著自上升器/下降器脫鉤,以到達結構之平台11或到達船體6。上升器/下降器可以是由使用者7自控制的或從船體6遠端控制的。與先前實施例相同,結合上述配置可額外使用安全及/或引導纜線。此外,與先前實施例相同,吊艙可適配到相關安全設備(諸如繫繩16與防墜落)以承載多個人或其他載重,以及提供附加的防碰撞保護。It should be understood that the riser/downer can also be used in the configuration shown in FIG. 5. That is, an ascender/descender or a climbing assist device can be attached to the
圖6示出根據替代解決方案的船用傳送設備之示意圖。透過此配置,傳送纜線1被連接在船體6上之耦合件5與設置在掛鉤臂12上之結構耦合件4之間。傳送纜線1被安全固定在鬆弛狀態,或在替代配置中,可透過使用彈簧或配重機構而被設置作為可延伸區段。如此一來,船體6將能夠相對於離岸結構10移動,且當運動被傳送纜線1之鬆弛或延長部所吸收時,不會對纜線1造成損害。在本例示性實例中,船體耦合件5位於船體6後半部處且在高位,在本情況下在船橋上。如此,可達成到達結構平台11之相對淺的上升角度,其藉此降低連接到傳送纜線1的物體7之相對運動。Figure 6 shows a schematic diagram of a marine conveying device according to an alternative solution. Through this configuration, the
在此態樣中,使用者或物體7透過使用攀爬輔助裝置或軌車(tram)16來連接到傳送纜線1,該軌車可滑動的耦合到纜線1。如此,當傳送纜線1在船體6與平台11之間移動時,該纜線承載物體7之載重。在本實例中,連接在船體與掛鉤臂12之間的次要繩索14被進一步設置以作用如牽引索(pull wire)。亦即,次要繩索14可以鬆弛狀態被連接,且攀爬輔助裝置15可耦合到該次要繩索14並作用如用於驅入攀爬輔助裝置之運動的驅動器或沿傳送纜線1之軌車16。在纜線故障的情況下,這種次要繩索14還提供了冗餘。在其他實例中,動力軌車16可取而代之的被設置以沿纜線1推動其自身的運動。In this aspect, the user or
在使用過程中,透過圖6所示之配置,船體6上之使用者7將軌車16耦合到傳送纜線1以及將攀爬輔助裝置15耦合到次要繩索14。在本階段中,使用者將與船體6之運動同相運動。攀爬輔助裝置可接著***作以沿著傳送纜線1拉拔該軌車16並且因此拉拔使用者7,朝向結構耦合件4。一旦軌車16到達結構耦合件4,其可被鎖到掛鉤臂12,以使得使用者7可相對於離岸結構10是實質靜態,並且在該點使用者7可脫鉤。During use, through the configuration shown in FIG. 6, the
透過以上配置,船體耦合件5與結構耦合件4可被設置在船體6與離岸結構10個別表面上方之一額外高度,使用者7可從該額外高度上升與下降。這提供一安全距離,使得一旦使用者7連接到軌車16後,其可距離船體6之部件或結構10一足夠之距離以降低因船體6運動所造成對此等表面之衝擊的風險。舉例而言,使用者可能需要垂直上升,較佳是在軌車16可以被釋放之前垂直上升1至2公尺(1-2m),以允許在船體6與結構10之間的傳送。可額外設置垂直上升/下降機構,用於在初始上升階段將使用者7上升遠離表面之目的,以及用於在船體6與結構平台11之間傳送操作結束時將使用者7下降到該表面上。同理,吊艙可被適配到軌車16,以承載多個人或其他載重,以及提供附加的防碰撞保護。Through the above configuration, the
