corrente de âncora | Garantia pós-venda

A âncora desempenha um papel importante em uma embarcação e operações offshore. No entanto, ele só pode funcionar enquanto permanecer preso à estrutura flutuante.

Considerando a tremenda quantidade de força aplicada à conexão entre a âncora e o navio durante as condições de atracação ou ancoragem de rotina, os métodos convencionais de fixação da âncora acabarão falhando sob o estresse extenso.

O corrente de âncora refere-se ao componente que prende a âncora ao barco ou estrutura e geralmente é chamado de âncora montada (ou cabo de âncora). É superior aos métodos convencionais em termos de resistência e suporte de carga.

O length of the corrente de âncora is typically determined by the depth of the water and the size of the ship. In shallow water, a shorter corrente de âncora may be sufficient, while in deeper water a longer chain may be needed. O chain may also be adjusted by adding or removing links as needed to suit the specific anchoring conditions.

In addition to holding the ship in place, the corrente de âncora also helps to absorb the shock of waves and other forces that may act on the vessel. It acts as a buffer between the anchor and the ship, helping to reduce the strain on both components. This is especially important in rough seas, where the forces acting on the ship can be very high.

Correntes de âncora are stored in a chain locker set deep within the hull of the vessel. Ose are ventilated enclosures that are used to store the anchor while it is not in use, and to house the remaining length of the corrente de âncora while it is deployed. It can be accessed by engineers and personnel for routine checks or long-term maintenance.

Geralmente, o piso do armário da corrente é reforçado, para que possa suportar o peso extra do metal montado. Para puxar a corrente para fora do armário, uma série de motores e engrenagens resistentes são instalados no convés em pares.

O corrente de âncora consists of many chain links, and the size is expressed in chain diameter (mm). According to whether there is a strut in the middle of the chain ring, it is divided into nailed corrente de âncora and nailless corrente de âncora. Correntes de âncora can be made by forging, casting and welding.

O marine corrente de âncora is composed of several "sections" (shackles), each section is 25.0-27.5 meters long, and the sections are connected by chain links or shackles. After the anchor is lifted, the chain is stored in the chain locker in the bow. O specifications of the corrente de âncora are determined according to the ship construction standard.
