  • Patent number: 10913515
    Abstract: The present invention provides a ship mooring device using a spring bellows structure, wherein the ship mooring device temporarily or permanently fixes a state in which the ship is spaced at a preset distance from a vessel or a pier, the ship mooring device including: a main body configured of a plurality of frames in which opposite ends of each of the frames are hinge-coupled to facing ends of adjacent frames to form foldable hinge joints, wherein diagonally opposed non-adjacent hinge joints of the frames are fixed to the ship and the pier, respectively; and a plurality of wires which are installed inwards in diagonal lines with respect to the frames of the main body to connect the diagonally opposed non-adjacent hinge joints together, with an elastic member interposed in a center portion of the radially disposed wires to generate predetermined dynamic stability when the ship is moved.

  • Patent number: 10584020
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a hydraulic height adjusting device for installing a heavy-weight structure to secure stable horizontal bearing power against a horizontal load of a heavy-weight upper structure. The present invention includes a lower frame which is installed on a top surface of the carrier and is provided with a plurality of receiving portions formed in an upwardly opened shape; and a hydraulic cylinder which is disposed in and engaged to the respective receiving portions of the lower frame, the hydraulic cylinder being moved in a vertical direction to adjust the height of the upper structure, in a state in which an upper end thereof supports the upper structure. The receiving portion is provided with a support guide which is interposed between an inner wall of the receiving portion and the hydraulic cylinder to annually enclose the hydraulic cylinder and thus prevent the hydraulic cylinder from being tilted.

  • Patent number: 9714880
    Abstract: The present invention provides an inertia test apparatus for a model ship that mimics a pitching inertia radius of an actual ship by reciprocating a model ship. The apparatus includes a base frame providing a supporting force, vertical frames integrally fixed at both sides of the base frame and having a hinge shaft on an upper end, a swing including a pair of fixing members rotatably hung on the hinge shafts of the vertical frames and a bed integrally formed at a lower ends of the fixing members, and providing a pitching inertia radius of the model ship by reciprocating about the hinge shafts, with the model ship seated on the bed, and a centering adjuster seating the model ship on the bed of the swing and matching a center of gravity of the model ship with a center of the swing by allowing the model ship to move.
