- LNG liquefied natural gas
- a vessel such as a shuttle LNG carrier (not shown)
- the articulated arm arrangement being part of a fixed or floating installation fluid production or storage.
- the articulated arm device 2 comprises a support structure, made in the example shown, in the form of a vertical support pole 6, at the top of which is pivotally mounted in a vertical plane, via a first joint 8, an inner arm 10 which carries at its free end an outer arm 12 which is articulated to the arm 10 by a second rotating junction 14 whose 1 'axis is oriented horizontally when the arm extends vertically.
- a connection / disconnection device 16 At the free end of the outer arm 12 is mounted a connection / disconnection device 16 with three rotating joints, which is intended to be connected to the manifold 4 of a ship.
- the articulated arm arrangement 2 comprises a third rotary joint 18 whose axis extends in the longitudinal direction of the inner arm 10 and which is disposed at the joint of this arm to the support pole 6.
- This Angle 18 allows the inner arm 10 to rotate about its longitudinal axis and thus the connection / disconnection device 16 to move perpendicularly to the vertical pivot plane of the inner arm 10.
- the inner arm 10 is supported via the rotary nozzle 18 by a part 20 which is pivotally mounted on a lateral face at the top of the support mast 6 so as to establish the rotary joint with horizontal axis 8.
- the joint 18 is made for example by a ball bearing.
- the articulated arm arrangement 2 is balanced by a counterweight device 22 comprising a first counterweight 24 which is disposed at the end of an extension 25 of the arm 10 at the hinge side at the mast 6.
- a second counterweight 27 is mounted on the extension 25 by means of a rod device 28 hinged at 26 to the extension 25 and is situated in the state of rest without rotation of the arm 10 in the vertical pivoting plane of this arm 10. In this position, the pivot axis 26 of the rod device extends perpendicularly to this vertical plane.
- the counterweight 27 is further connected by a connecting rod 29 to the end of an axial extension 31 of the outer arm 12, to the side of the articulation of this outer arm 12 to the inner arm 10 via the rotary joint 14.
- the ends of the connecting rod 29 are articulated respectively to the counterweight 27 and to the end of the extension 31, at 32 and 33, so that the counterweight 27 is disposed at an angle of a deformable parallelogram formed by the inner arm 10 and the linking rod 29, on the one hand, and the rod device 28 and the extension 31, on the other hand, with pivoting axes 26, 32, 33 and the gasket 14.
- This parallelogram is secured to the inner arm 10 so as to pivot with the arm when it rotates about its longitudinal axis.
- the counterweight 27 thus forms a means of self-balancing the outer arm 12, while the counterweight 24 balances the inner arm 10.
- connection / disconnection device 16 to the manifold 4 of a ship, it comprises three rotary joints 3, 36, 38 in order from the end of the arm 12, whose rotary axes are perpendicular to each other, an emergency disconnection mechanism 40 disposed between the seals 36 and 38 and the means 42 of removable connection to the manifold 4.
- FIGS. 7 to 9 show an improved embodiment of the connection / disconnection device 16.
- This embodiment of the connection / disconnection device 16 is designed to be connected to a horizontal manifold 4 without being connected to the manifold a part which is capable of pivoting around the axis of the manifold after emergency disconnection.
- the emergency disconnect mechanism 40 is disposed between the last rotary joint 38 and the connector means 42.
- the emergency disconnect mechanism 40 and the connector 42 are axially aligned with each other and with the manifold.
- only one half 40 'of the emergency disconnect mechanism * 40 and the connector 42 remain connected to the manifold.
- the invention thus makes it possible to avoid the tilting of the abandoned part, remaining on the manifold.
- the emergency disconnection mechanism 40 is a double butterfly valve system, to reduce the mass and bulk, on the one hand, but also the residual volume of liquefied natural gas between the two valves.
- a double butterfly valve system to reduce the mass and bulk, on the one hand, but also the residual volume of liquefied natural gas between the two valves.
- FIGS. 5 and 6 show a system according to the invention, which comprises a plurality of articulated arm arrangements, in the example shown four, three of which are shown in the connected state to a manifold 4 while the fourth is in the folded position of rest.
- the figures illustrate an advantage of the invention, which lies in the fact that the connection / disconnection devices 16 of the adjoining articulated arm arrangements 2 are not likely to interfere when coming into contact with each other and that they there is no sweeping of the bridge by the arms.
- the invention is designed to transfer fluid including liquefied natural gas (LNG).
- LNG liquefied natural gas
- the system according to the invention has multiple advantages. It was designed so that the forces exerted on a manifold of a ship, such as a shuttle tanker, are very weak. As the wind in the longitudinal direction of the ships is a major force-creating element by the articulated arm arrangement on the manifold, the invention makes it possible to reduce these forces substantially by making the inner arm pivot only in one plane. vertical. Thus, the end of the inner arm which carries the outer arm becomes for the latter a "fixed" point of support in the longitudinal direction of the ships. Only the effects of the wind transmitted to the lower end of the outer arm have an impact on the forces at the manifold, which can significantly reduce the forces at the manifold.
- the balancing not only of the inner arm, but also of the outer arm minimizes the forces imposed by the arms on the manifolds of the shuttle LNG carriers. Mass mobilized by the movement of LNG shuttle is minimal because the counterweight are disposed at the support pole 6.
- the invention allows one to increase the stiffness ⁇ 3 ⁇ - ⁇ U. "tn" Li 3 ⁇ . ⁇ ⁇ , 3 3 3. "5 which makes it possible to reduce significantly the effect of the vibrations and to avoid phenomena of dynamic amplifications of the efforts.
- connection of an articulated arm arrangement according to the invention can be made by maneuvering this arrangement by an operator assisted by a vessel movement compensation system which is known per se.
- the operator maneuver the arm and position it in an intermediate position.
- the motion compensation system is turned on so that the end follows the movements of the manifold.
- the motion compensation system is still running and the operator directs the advance of the end of the outer arm to the manifold and makes the connection.
- the connection could also be made completely automatically.
- the outer arm starts from its stored position or an intermediate position and automatically connects to the manifold without direct operator intervention.
- the emergency disconnect device is horizontal and directly adjacent to the quick connect / disconnect connection, in case of emergency disconnection, the abandoned part on the manifold is reduced and can not be tilted.
