METHOD OF INSTALLING TUG FERRY INTO BRIDGE LINE FROM CONTROLLED EQUIPAGE OF FLOATING RAILWAY BRIDGE (FRB-56) Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC E01D15/14 

FIELD: construction.

SUBSTANCE: winches 3 with ropes are fixed from two sides on the ferries of the river part 2 of the floating bridge. The pontoon crew from the river part of the bridge transfers the steel ropes of the winches to the tug section. The ferry crew fastens the ropes to the bollards of the ferry tug section, after which the ropes are stretched with winches, with which the tug ferry is guided and retained, while the pontoon crew installs screw ties of tension joints.

EFFECT: method allows to simplify the technology of entering a ferry, to reduce the labour costs, the time of entering and securing the tug ferry part in the bridge line, which generally reduces the time for bridging a floating railway bridge across a water barrier.
