摘要:
A method of loading floatable containers (12) onto, and discharging floatable containers (12) from, a vessel (100). The vessel includes twin hulls (1, 1') which lie beneath the water surface, means (26) are provided for controlling vessel draft.
摘要:
The invention relates to a floating vessel of the type that consists of a floating structure comprising a platform which connects two hulls (2), said hulls (2) being pivot articulated to the platform (1) such that they can move, for example, between at least two pre-determined floating positions. In addition, the hulls are equipped with ballast/deballast means (5, 6, 7, 8A, 8B) and means (11) enabling same to be immobilised in each of the floating positions thereof. The inventive vessel is characterised in that the connecting platform (1) takes the form of a floating element. The vessel is further characterised in that the hulls (2) are moved from a floating position to another position by at least the pump ballast/deballast means (5, 6, 7, 8A, 8B) of the hulls, said means co-operating with the hull-immobilising means (11). According to the invention, the operation of the ballast/deballast means and the immobilising means are controlled by a central unit (4) which uses a series of pre-determined sequences in order to control said means in a simultaneous and/or alternating manner such as to cause the hulls to pivot essentially under the effect of hydrostatic forces.

For transporting cargo in a ship (2), a barge (6-16) carrying cargo is received in a cargo space (27), a transport bottom (44) of the cargo space being partially flooded and the barge (6-16) floating into the cargo space (27). The barge (6-16) passes into the cargo space (27) through an access door (49). The door is closed and water is discharged from the ship (2) until the barge (6-16) is carried by the transport bottom (44). The ship then sails to a destination, where the door (49) is opened, the transport bottom (44) is flooded again at least until the barge (6-16) floats; and the barge (6-16) is delivered from the cargo space (27) via the opening of the access door (49). A method for loading, a shipping system and a cargo transfer station specifically adapted for use in combination with that method are also described.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method for securing horizontally loaded cargo units on a vessel, in which method the cargo units (13) are handled and secured for transporting the cargo units (13) on the vessel. The cargo unit (13) is secured to the vessel and/or to an adjacent cargo unit (13) by means of securing elements extending in the longitudinal direction of the cargo unit such that securing parts (11, 12) of the securing element (10) fixed to a bulkhead (15) of the vessel and to the cargo unit or to adjacent cargo units form an interlocking coupling, whereby the cargo unit (13) that is secured remains in place in the securing position. The invention also relates to a device for securing horizontally loaded cargo units on a vessel, which device is used for securing the cargo units (13) for transport on the vessel. The device is formed as a securing element (10) extending in the longitudinal direction of the cargo unit, which securing element comprises securing parts (11, 12) fixed to adjacent cargo units or to a cargo unit and a bulkhead (15) of the vessel adjacent to the cargo unit, which securing parts form an interlocking coupling such that the cargo unit (13) that is secured remains in place in the securing position.

Dans un mode de réalisation préféré d'une superstructure autolanceuse (22) pour un navire (20), ladite superstructure (22) comprend: une coque flottable présentant une partie inférieure avant (82) en pente vers le bas à partir d'un point proche d'une ligne de flottaison située près d'une extrémité de proue de la superstructure jusqu'à un point situé près d'une extrémité de poupe de ladite superstructure, la partie inférieure avant pouvant venir au contact d'une rampe (24) correspondante sur le navire (20) lorsque ladite superstructure (22) est montée sur le navire (20), la rampe (24) aboutissant à un bord du navire (20) de manière que la superstructure, sous l'effet de la force gravitationnelle, peut glisser depuis le navire (20) jusque dans l'eau dans laquelle le navire (20) flotte, ainsi qu'un appareil destiné à fixer de manière libérable la superstructure sur le navire (20) la partie inférieure avant (82) de la coque venant en contact avec la rampe (24).
摘要:
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung für ein Schiff zum Anbordnehmen und Ausbringen von Schwimm- oder Tauchobjekten, insbesondere von Booten. Aufgabe der Erfindung war es, eine Vorrichtung der genannten Gattung zu schaffen, bei der gegenüber bekannten Vorrichtungen das Anbordnehmen und Ausbringen von Schwimm- und Tauchobjekten risikoloser und reibungsloser geschehen kann. Die Aufgabe ist erfindungsgemäß durch eine Vorrichtung gelöst worden, die sich auszeichnet durch eine vom Rumpf des Schiffes aus- und einfahrbare, wenigstens teilweise ins Wasser eintauchbare Kammer zur Aufnahme des Objektes, welche wenigstens zum Teil nach Art eines Greifers aufklappbar ausgebildet ist.
摘要:
A method of loading cargo-carrying barges (B1) into an ocean-going ship having a self-lowering capability and having facility for flooding at least one cargo-carrying space with water up to a Loading Water Line corresponding with the ballasted water line of the ship. The carrying barges (B1) are closed against entry of water, and each barge (B1), after being floated into the cargo-carrying space such as (3), is upended in the water and conveyed into a storage location where it is retained, for example by retaining rails (42, 43).
