Description

The invention relates to shipbuilding, in particular to the design of universal ships that are transformed, and the method of transformation of the fleet under the given conditions of cargo transportation.

Known ship composition, described in the patent of the Russian Federation No. 2113374, published on 06/20/1998, the IPC index B63B 21/62.

A ship’s convoy composed of two or more threads from pointed river and sea sections, containing river and sea pushers, suitable for non-stop movement of sea sections along river-sea lines singly or in wake composition in coastal areas of seas with a marine pusher. Moreover, the marine sections have hatch covers, a pointed nautical nasal formation with cheekbones-notches and stern reinforced side fairings immersed in water, forming a square section with aft transom and a vertical niche with vertical internal walls, with horizontal coupling grooves inside for placement in front of them and on the sides of the sea pusher of the coupling bars, which eliminates the possibility of play during pitching due to their hard wedging, while the pusher is also rigidly fixed in the edge In the forward position in the niche with ropes with tension lanyards or similar devices to prevent it from sliding backwards, and to facilitate, at the initial moment of coupling, the coupling beams getting into the coupling grooves of the section, the pusher has water ballast compartments symmetrically located in its body, which allow changing its trim, roll and draft, while the square shape of the aft niche of the marine section retains the possibility of its operation in river conditions and river pushers with a square nose.

Its marine pusher has one or two full-rotary stern core engines, which provides lateral steering of the train and backward movement when the train is moving in the conditions of a narrow winding fairway, dump currents and wind, an oncoming wave, the pusher having a pointed stern with supporting vertical beams at its end , is located in front of the composition between the nasal formations of the head sections, performing the role of a breakwater fairing and a bow thruster.

The end hitch of the marine sections in the composition is carried out by the nose of the pushing section, vertically moving along the guide surfaces with a hook grapple, which is connected to the coupling thrust located at the stern of the pushing section, having a tension device and connected with longitudinal and transverse shock absorbers on the sections, while the vertical support beams on the ends of the aft side fairings of this section abut against the zygomatic rounded recesses-stops behind the located section, and for towing the marine section, in the case of storm, the sea has a pusher tug and stern anchor device and, if necessary, extend regular towing cables available on the sections, anchor chains pusher.

The common essential features are that the complex of vessels and equipment includes at least two vessels in the form of non-self-propelled barges with cargo rooms and a towing vessel with a propeller in the form of a propeller column, auxiliary equipment and ship systems.

The disadvantages of the known design are a large number of types and sizes of non-self-propelled barges, the design of which does not provide the possibility of transformation into self-propelled barges, there is no interchangeability of elements, the complex design of the elements for docking the barges with each other and with the towing vessel.

There is a method of refitting a vessel, described in Ukrainian patent No. 46244, published 05/15/2002, the IPC index B63V 9/00.

A method of converting a ship for rolling cargo transportation includes cutting off superstructure assemblies, bulkheads onboard and zygomatic contours, coaming and hatch closure, mast, cargo equipment, boom and performing at the level of the main rolling deck, under which the deck for cars, and also supports for a movable bridge-ramp with nodes for its inclination, which is set at an angle to the longitudinal axis of the vessel. For example, an icebreaking timber transport carrier vessel is being converted, on the deck of which support components, such as a superstructure, mast, a winch of cargo equipment, an arrow, and at the same time hatch closure of the holds are connected with an additional cargo bridge, which is connected to the ramp bridge, which is installed within the angle from 0 to 90 degrees to the longitudinal axis of the vessel. As additional support nodes-racks and ramp drives, they use support nodes, for example, superstructures, masts, which are cut off at the hatch level of the holds, while the bridge is removable and nodes of the cargo equipment, such as a winch, boom, mast, guides for cables from another hold . The hatch closure of the hold is connected to the bulwark with an additional bridge, and a cutout is made in its flooring. In one of the tiers of the superstructure, for example, in its residential and office premises for the crew, the bulkhead is cut off and converted into a room for transit freight personnel.

Common essential features is that the vessel will be converted to prepare for other conditions of transportation and for the transportation of another type of cargo.

The disadvantage of this method is that the transformation of the vessel must be performed in a specialized factory production, as one cut off ship structures and install and fix by welding other structures on the ship's hull. When re-transforming, similar actions will again be necessary, since the analogue does not have removable unified modules and foundations are adapted for removable fastening.

The closest is the patent of the Russian Federation No. 2203197, published on April 27, 2003, MPC index B63B 25/12, B63B 21/56, B63B 35/08, according to which a two-part vessel for transporting oil in waters with possible ice contains the first part a vessel in the form of a barge, which includes several tank tanks and has a bow section with a flooded receiving space for a mooring and pouring buoy, and the second part of the vessel in the form of a power plant module having a stern section, which is designed for breaking ice, and the second I part of the vessel has a front end made with the possibility of its connection with the stern section of the first part of the vessel. The power plant module is equipped with the equipment necessary also for this module to perform the functions of a supply vessel. The power plant module is equipped with traction equipment to ensure the operation of the specified module both in the pull mode and in the push mode.

The traction equipment includes two rotary propulsors, which can be rotated 360 °, mainly with an electric drive.

Two parts of the vessel are equipped with a device for mutual connection, which is made with the possibility of a rigidly fixed connection of the power unit module to the barge in the pushing mode.

The interconnection device is designed so that in the mode of pulling the power unit and the barge can move.

The interconnection device comprises a longitudinally extending space in the form of a channel made in the power unit module and open at its front end, and an insertion element which protrudes from the aft section of the barge and has a shape that allows it to be inserted into the specified space made in the form of a channel, one or more connecting elements are provided in the power unit module and are intended to engage with the corresponding connecting elements on the plug-in element.

Ballast tanks are provided in the power plant module for adapting the draft and trim of the power plant module with the aft end of the barge.

The front end of the propulsion module is designed as a bow section suitable for breaking ice.

The bow section of the barge is made with the possibility of breaking ice and has a lower side, which has a downward slope in the side view and which in front of the receiving space for the buoy goes into the bottom section of the barge, designed to protect the receiving space and the buoy from ice loads.

The barge part is equipped with side tanks, which in their upper part are fully or partially filled with solid permanent ballast.

The barge is made of concrete.

The barge section is equipped with a pipeline for pumping oil from the flooding buoy directly into one or more central tanks and further into the side tanks.

The bottom of the barge in the bow section is raised relative to the rest of the bottom, so that the area of the receiving space for the buoy has less draft than the rest of the barge.

Common essential features is that the complex for transporting goods by ships contains ships in the form of non-self-propelled barges with cargo rooms and a power module, which includes a hull, at least one main power plant with propulsion, auxiliary equipment, cabin, and ship systems.

The disadvantages of the prototype are that the power module is a specialized towing vessel designed only for towing a specific type of barge with a special design in the stern for connection to the power module, and non-self-propelled barges themselves are not adapted to quickly transform into self-propelled vessels that can independently move between ports in the absence of the possibility of scheduling crossings using a towing vessel without downtime, for the impossibility of its arrival in bhodimoe time, as there is no interchangeability of the elements of the complex.

It is traditional for some shipping company to have dozens of self-propelled barges, dozens of non-self-propelled barges, and dozens of towing vessels that cannot be transformed, have neither removable cabin modules nor removable powerplant modules, see the patents of the Russian Federation No. 2113374 and No. 2203197 described above, Ukrainian patent No. 46244. If any parts, assemblies or devices on such vessels fail, the entire vessel is decommissioned before the breakdown is eliminated. If, for example, it is impossible to use non-self-propelled barges on a given route, then both barges and towing vessels are idle, and self-propelled vessels are responsible for solving the problems of cargo transportation, and the insufficient number of such vessels cannot be compensated for by the quick conversion of the fleet, which is idle. In winter, the maximum number of scheduled repairs is carried out and the lack of unification creates difficulties associated with ordering a large number of various parts and assemblies.

We have developed design documentation for the manufacture of ship modules and hulls of the described complex, and the component equipment is selected from mechanisms that are supplied as standard, for example, Schotell propeller columns are provided as main propellers, and the main engine is manufactured by Caterpillar (United States) America. The manufacture of ship hulls, foundations, felling is carried out at shipyards according to the existing technology in shipbuilding.

Installation and dismantling of modules can be carried out when the hull is afloat using crane equipment, which is provided with ports, since the absence of the need to cut large hull metal structures, fit and weld these structures eliminates the need to lift the vessel in a dock at a ship repair or shipyard. Installation and dismantling is carried out in a short time, since all connections are quick-disconnect, there is no need to fit structural elements, cable routes and pipelines are brought to their intended joints and made flexible in necessary places. Modules that need repair or routine maintenance are decommissioned and quickly replaced with serviceable ones.

As an example, let’s show the operation of the complex, which consists of twelve hulls of non-self-propelled (transformed according to the invention into self-propelled) barges with a carrying capacity of 4000 tons, two hulls of towing vessels, ten cabin modules and twenty modules of the main power plants.
