Description

An anti-overturning self-elevating platform spud shoe

technical field

The utility model relates to a self-elevating ocean platform equipment, in particular to a spud shoe applied to the self-elevating ocean platform. It belongs to the field of marine engineering machinery.

Background technique

The spud shoe is a device installed under the truss legs of the jack-up platform. Its function is to transmit the force of the legs to the seabed soil and support the entire platform through the legs. Due to the mechanical independence between the various spud cans of the platform, the platform supported by the spud can is more adaptable than the platform supported by the ground (sinking pad), which can work on uneven seabed or slightly inclined sea area.

At present, under the conditions of soft seabed and deep pile insertion, the traditional spud can is similar to an enlarged "discus"; increasing its diameter improves the bearing capacity of the spud can, but it will make it difficult to lift the pile, and even the pile legs cannot be pulled out Reducing its diameter will reduce its bearing capacity, resulting in a decrease in the stability of the platform it supports, especially poor resistance to environmental loads such as sea wind and waves, and it is easy to cause problems such as puncture, tilt, and slippage.

There is a retractable drilling platform spud-can structure (patent number: 201120095451.X). The traditional fixed spud-can structure is changed into a movable spud-can mechanism through an internal retractable steel framework, which is similar to the opening and closing of an umbrella. During the pile insertion process, the spud can is quickly inserted in a cylindrical shape by shrinking the steel skeleton. After reaching the target depth, the steel skeleton is opened to expand the bearing area of the spud can. However, because its own structure is a strip bracket, the internal Lack of stiffeners, etc., so, in the case of the same radius as the traditional spud can, its bearing capacity is reduced, and the hinged structure also reduces the strength of the spud can; in addition, the internal design of the transparent spud can is not conducive to hydraulic pressure Cylinder work, spud cans are less reliable, so it is difficult to put them into use in practice.

Contents of the invention

The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art and provide an anti-overturning self-elevating platform spud shoe.

In order to achieve the above object, the utility model is realized through the following technical solutions:

An anti-overturning self-elevating platform spud shoe, comprising a discus-like hollow oblate shell connected by an upper top plate and a lower bottom plate and reinforcing ribs arranged inside the shell. There are at least three tubular slides fixedly connected to the shell on the upper half; the front end of the tubular slides is provided with a limit flange and a sealing ring, and the rear end is provided with an inner retaining ring, which are arranged sequentially from the rear end to the front end. There is a hydraulic cylinder and at least one telescopic tube, wherein one end of the piston cylinder of the hydraulic cylinder is connected to the reinforcing rib inside the housing, and the rod head at the other end of the piston rod is connected to the inner end surface of the front end of the telescopic tube , the front end of the telescopic tube is closed, and the rear end is provided with an outer retaining ring; a watertight stuffing box for the high pressure oil pipe is installed on the upper top plate of the housing, and a watertight door is provided at the bottom of the lower bottom plate, and the hydraulic cylinder passes through The high-pressure tubing laid along the legs is controlled by a hydraulic servo system installed in the ballast control center on the jack-up platform.

The cross-sectional shapes of the above-mentioned tubular slideway and the telescopic tube are oblate.

The above-mentioned telescopic tube is one section or two sections.

The front end of the telescopic tube is also fixedly connected with a conical cap.

The above-mentioned connection between the rod head of the piston rod and the inner end surface of the front end of the telescopic tube is a hinge connection.

The hydraulic servo system mentioned above is a set, which is composed of electromagnetic control valve, oil tank, hydraulic pump, overflow valve, check valve, oil pressure gauge and oil inlet and outlet pipes. Wherein, the solenoid valve is a three-position four-way valve, which is placed in the middle position to keep the hydraulic cylinder in a pressure-holding state, and switches between the left and right positions to control the expansion and contraction of the hydraulic cylinder. At least three hydraulic cylinders for controlling the movement of the telescopic tube are connected in parallel on the working oil circuit of the electromagnetic valve; the oil pressure gauge and the one-way valve are respectively connected to the inlet/return oil circuit of each hydraulic cylinder.

Advantage and beneficial effect of the present utility model mainly are:

The utility model is flexible in operation, safe and reliable. The telescopic tube installed on the spud shoe body extends the spud shoe through the telescopic tube and embeds it into the seabed, which not only increases the bearing area of the spud shoe to the seabed, but also controls the subsidence of the spud shoe. The pipe is embedded in the seabed, which can effectively control the spud cans to move, twist and turn in situ. Under the simultaneous action of multiple spud cans on the same platform, it can effectively overcome the difference in the bearing capacity of different areas of the seabed itself, and greatly improve the The platform can bear the load of natural wind and waves on the sea, so as to play the role of fixing piles.
