MARINE SHIPPING BERTH Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC E02D17/00 

FIELD: construction, hydrotechnical engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention is related to marine hydrotechnical structures of island type, intended for shifting of liquid fuel to transport vessels in process of minerals production. Invention objective is to create structure of marine shipping berth that provides for tanker mooring and its loading on any side of structure with support part of stand type and piled foundation that perceives loads from structure weight, from effect of wind, waves, water flow and shift of ice cover. Marine shipping berth comprising support unit (1), which is installed on sea bottom and rigidly connected to soil with the help of piles (2), on bottom support unit a bearing unit (3) is fixed, rotary module (4) is installed on the latter, as an upper structure with process equipment for oil preparation (5), including also weight-lifting mechanism (6) for feed of connection nozzle (7) and helicopter platform (8), differs by the fact that upper structure with process equipment (4) and helicopter platform (8) are rigidly installed directly on bearing unit (3), arranged in the form of cylindrical pipe or spatial rod structure, at the same time on rotary module (4), there is a weight-lifting mechanism (6) for supply of connection nozzle (7) to loading vessel (9), and additionally installed mooring device (10), which is hingedly connected to appropriate links of weight-lifting mechanism (6).

EFFECT: reduced weight of rotary part and as a result, capacity of rotation mechanism drive.
