摘要:
The invention concerns a system comprising a device (11) for transferring the product between the ship and the installation, which is supported at one end by a support structure and whereof the other end is capable of being connected to the ship's manifold device (8). The system is characterised in that the support structure comprises a berth (5) the ship, a boom (8) carrying a transfer pipe (10), and mounted on the berth (5), rotatable about a vertical axis above the ship, and a deformable transfer device (11) one end of which is connected to the pipe (10), while the other end is mobile between a stowed position advantageously proximate to the boom (8) and a position for connection to the ship's manifold device (15). The invention is useful for transferring liquefied natural gas.

The invention relates to a hydrocarbon transfer system comprising a first structure (8) carrying an articulated arm (4,5,61,62). The system has at a free end (64) a first connector part (13,43,65), and a vessel (7) comprising a second connector part (47,48,70), wherein each connector part comprises a housing (72,73) with at least two fluid ducts (66,67,68,69) within said housing. The ducts can be placed into sealing engagement along respective sealing faces (94,95), and a locking member (74,75,78,79,101) for locking the housings (72,73) of the connector parts together, wherein the fluid ducts (68,69) in either the first or second connector are connected to a respective fluid swivel (91,92,93) or flexible duct section to allow at least partial rotation of the ducts along their longitudinal axis, and are connected to a drive means (90) for jointly rotating the ducts along a centreline of the connector parts for alignment of the ducts in the first and second connector parts, the fluid ducts in the first or second connector part comprising a section (98) which is displaceable in the longitudinal direction, by a displacement member (97) for varying the axial position of the sealing faces (94,95) of the movable duct section relative to the housing.

The invention concerns an assembly comprising balanced loading and unloading arm (14) installed at a first location and having articulated pipeline arms (15, 16) mounted through one of its end on a base (18) and provided at the other of its ends with a system connecting (28) the articulated pipeline arms to coupling means (29) installed at the second location. It further comprises a cable (32) linked through one of its ends to the connecting system (28) and through the other of its ends to means (35-39) adapted to subject said cable to constant tension, and a connecting winch (42) whereon is wound a connection cable (41) for bringing the connecting system (28) in a position to be connected to the coupling means (29).
摘要:
The invention relates to a system for transfer of a liquid such as liquefied natural gas from a ship such as a liquefied natural gas carrier and a floating or fixed production and/or storage unit. The system has articulated arms (3) and has n degrees of freedom, generally six, each provided by a rotating joint. The system is characterised in that at least one (27, 26, 15) of the rotating joints is provided on the ship (1). The invention is applicable to the transfer of a liquefied natural gas between a ship and a storage unit.

Assembly for loading and unloading products, comprising a balanced loading and unloading arm installed at a first location and having a compass-style duct system mounted by one of its ends on a base and provided at the other of its ends with a connection system suitable for connecting the compass-style duct system to a coupling means installed at the second location, this assembly comprising, in addition, a cable joined on the one hand to means integral with the base and suitable for subjecting this cable to a constant tension and suitable for being joined, on the other hand, to the second location, the assembly also comprising guiding means capable of co-operating with the cable so as to guide the connection system along a trajectory materialized by the said cable until the connection system is brought into a position of connection to the coupling means.
摘要:
The invention relates to a loading structure for liquified natural gas comprising a fluid transfer boom for transfer of cryogenic liquids from a first storage structure to a vessel, the boom having a first ann and an second arm which are mutually connected at a first end via a swivel joint, the first and second arms being with a second end connected to the storage structure and connectable to the vessel respectively. In the loading structure of the invention a liquified natural gas duct is supported within the first and second arms which form a gas tight housing around the liquified natural gas conduit, the liquified natural gas tubular conduit being provided with deformable wall parts, preferably near the internal swivel joint.
摘要:
A loading arm for supplying a fluid, typically oil, to a ship from a quayside, the arm comprising a support link arrangement of limbs (3,5,7) pivoted together to extend from a stanchion (1) on the quay to an inlet pipe on the ship. A pipe extends alongside the link arm the pipe having fixed, rigid sections (11,13,15) alongside the links (1,3,5,7) and flexible sections (25,27,29) past the link joints. The flexible sections (25,27,29) are arranged to extend through the link joint axis when the flexible section is straight in an intermediate position of the link arm. In this design the flexible section is not stretched on flexing.
摘要:
Bei einer Ausrüstung für eine Verladebühne, an der Ladegut auf Fahrzeuge verschiedener Höhen verladen wird, mit einer Höhenverstellbarkeit durch Schwenkbewegungen, sind diese durch einen Momentausgleich gedämpft. Für den Momentausgleich ist eine mit einem kompressiblen Medium mindestens teilweise gefüllte Kompressionsanordnung vorgesehen, die mindestens auf ihrer Druckseite mit einem Druckspeicher verbunden ist. Sie ist als eine Treppe ausgebildet, die an der Verladebühne stufenlos schwenkbar gelagert ist. Die Treppe besteht aus mehreren Stufen, die in Wangen schwenkbar gelagert sind, von denen mindestens eine mit einer Anlenkung für die Kompressionsanordnung versehen ist, die an der Verladebühne befestigt ist.
