摘要: A locking mechanism (28) is disclosed for use on the legs (14) of a jack-up offshore platform (10). Each chord (18) of the legs (14) includes a rack (22) cooperating with pinions (26) used in raising and lowering the legs. The locking mechanism (28) includes a rigid frame attached to the hull (12) of the platform (10) and housing (36) and a plurality of vertically aligned toothed chock segments (30, 32, 38) to engage the teeth (24) of the rack (22) on a leg (14). The chock segments have upper and lower inclined surfaces cooperating with upper and lower movable wedges (48, 52) for supporting the chock segments (30, 32, 38). Subsequent engagement and retention of the supporting wedges (48, 52) securely locks the chock segments (30, 32, 38) into mating engagement with the rack teeth (24), to thereby lock the platform legs (14) in place.

摘要: A method and an apparatus for load weight determination of the truck (10) including the steps of loading the truck, sensing the pressure of the tilting cylinders (20) to determine the amount of load, indicating the load weight, providing feedback on the effect of variations in the center of gravity of load to correct the load weight determined and providing a corrected load weight. The apparatus includes a tilting bed truck (10) with the bed (16) hinged to the truck frame (12) and tilted to its dumping position by tilting cylinders (20), a sensing device (34) for sensing the pressure in the tilting cylinders (20) when they are supporting the bed (16) above its support pad (22), a data processor (30) having data on truck loading and receiving information on the pressure sensed by the sensing device (34) and having an output to indicating devices of the load weight.

摘要: An improved method and apparatus for powering and controlling the operation of large diesel-electric off-road haulers of the type in which hauler drive wheels are propelled and retarded by DC electric wheel motors powered from on-board generators, optionally supplemented by DC power, from external trolley lines. In the disclosed system, thyristor-type converters connected into the system AC power grid are used to receive supplemental external power from DC trolley lines and supply it into the AC power distribution grid in the propel mode. The use of such thyristor-type converters makes possible the use of supplemental trolley line power without provision of separate switching or control gear to operate the DC wheel motors when trolley line power is received. Thyristor-type converters also may be used to supply current generated by wheel motors in the retarding mode to retarding resistors, making possible the use of the initial electrical power generated by the wheel motors to replace load requirements of the diesel engine, resulting in substantial fuel savings.
