    摘要: A self-righting unmanned vehicle, comprising: a cavity 1, located at a first side of the hull of the unmanned vehicle; a sealed cavity 2, located at a second side of the hull of the unmanned vehicle and provided, in parallel to the cavity 1, in a head region of the hull; and a first propeller 3, provided in a tail intersection region of a normal waterline A with an inversion waterline B of the unmanned vehicle, and rotating in a reverse direction when the unmanned vehicle is in an overturned state. The self-righting unmanned vehicle improves the self-righting efficiency of the unmanned vehicle.

    摘要: A structure for stabilizing a barrel on a pontoon vessel includes a deck structure. First And second hull frame members are affixed to the deck structure and extend therealong. In spaced relationship to each other. A first and second conduit extends along a respective hull frame member; the first conduit being spaced from the second conduit by a distance to receive a portion of a barrel therebetween and each conduit contacting the barrel above a barrel central line. A strap having a first end anchored near the first conduit, and tracing a path from the anchor beneath, and in contact with, the barrel disposed between the first conduit in the second conduit, along the second conduit, and returning to the first conduit by tracing a path from the second conduit to the first conduit beneath and in contact with the barrel.

    摘要: An offshore platform lifting device for lifting operations at sea after sailed to a certain position of a sea surface includes an upper deck, a plurality of upright columns, a rail seat, a base disposed on the rail seat, two davit arms, two first winches, and two second winches. The upper deck has a lower pontoon. The upright columns are connected between to the upper deck and the lower pontoon. Each upright column is provided with a support leg that is longitudinally inserted through the upright column, thereby positioning the offshore platform lifting device on the seabed through the upright columns. The two davit arms are disposed the base and drives the base to move laterally through a pushing device. The two second winches each have a second cable passing through the two davit arms. A hook is disposed at a distal end of the second cable.

    摘要: A semi-submersible support platform and a positioning method thereof are disclosed. The semi-submersible support platform, used for operations at sea after sailed to a certain position of a sea surface, includes an upper deck and a lower pontoon. The upper deck and the lower pontoon are connected by a plurality of upright columns. Each upright column is provided with a support leg that is longitudinally inserted through the upright column. The lower pontoon has a plurality of chambers for receiving water therein. The support leg has a compartment for receiving water therein. Each upright column includes a leveling mechanism therein. When the support leg sinks to reach the seabed, the leveling mechanism in each upright column is combined with the support leg to support the support leg. The leveling mechanism can drive the upper deck to move up or down along the support leg.

    摘要: A multihull multiplatform floating vessel with a plurality of longitudinal hulls, a plurality of pin connectors; each pin connector providing one axis motion, a plurality of joints, each joint providing two axis motion, wherein the first joint is mounted on one hull the second joint is mounted on a second hull and wherein one group of pin connectors is mounted on one hull and a second group of pin connectors is mounted on the second hull. A first moveable planar platform is connected to the hulls and a second moveable planar platform is connected to the hulls by the pin connectors and joints, the platforms spaced apart from each other forming a platform void between pairs of platforms, and a hull void between pairs of hulls increasing safety onboard and decreasing motion of the moveable planar platforms as mounted to the longitudinal hulls.

    摘要: A pontoon boat includes first and second pontoons on the port and starboard sides of the boat and a main deck attached to the top of the pontoons. A front wave deflector extends forwards and upwards from the front of the main deck at an angle. The front wave deflector is held above the water and does not contact the water while the pontoon boat is floating in or moving through calm water. The front wave deflector contacts the tops of waves when the pontoon boat is navigating rough water and pushes the water beneath the pontoon boat deck. This allows the pontoon boat to navigate rough water without loss of momentum and without excessive up and down pitching.

    摘要: A ship whereby the hull and the mechanical propulsion device are designed such that the Froude number is larger than 0.5. In the aft ship the hull has a bottom with V-shaped bottom surfaces with a deadrise angle that is less than 40 degrees and the hull has substantially vertical sides. In the hull are a passenger compartment and a trim tank. The trim tank volume is such that the weight of a filled trim tank is more than 30% of the weight of displacement of the hull with an empty trim tank, filling the trim tank with water increases the amidships immersed width with at least 10%, and the bottom surfaces have bilge keels fully immersed when the trim tank is filled with water and the bilge keels are at least in part above the water level when the trim tank is empty.
