| 发明名称 | Assembly for transferring fluids between a vessel and a turret structure mounted in said vessel | ||
| 摘要 | An assembly for transferring fluids between a vessel and a turret structure mounted in said vessel for a rotation around a substantially vertical turret axis is provided. Said turret structure comprises a swivel having at least one fluid path which is connected with one end of a fluid piping of which the second end is connected to the vessel. A swivel tower mounts around the swivel and engages the remainder of the turret structure by a swivel tower bearing. A torsion lock mechanism substantially locks the swivel tower to the vessel for a rotation therewith. A first fluid piping segment extends freely between the vessel and the swivel tower and a second fluid piping segment extends between the swivel tower and the fluid path of the swivel. The segments are joined at an interconnection where the fluid piping is substantially fixed to the swivel tower by fixing device. | ||

| 主权项 | 1. An assembly for transferring fluids between a vessel and a turret structure mounted in said vessel for a rotation around a substantially vertical turret axis, wherein said turret structure comprises a swivel having at least one fluid path and wherein the fluid path is connected with one end of a fluid piping of which the second end is connected to the vessel, wherein the assembly further comprises a swivel tower mounted around the swivel and engaging the remainder of the turret structure by a swivel tower bearing for a relative rotation with respect to said remainder of the turret structure around the turret axis, wherein a torsion lock mechanism substantially locks the swivel tower to the vessel for a rotation therewith, and wherein the fluid piping comprises a first fluid piping segment extending freely between the vessel and the swivel tower and a second fluid piping segment extending between the swivel tower and the fluid path of the swivel and wherein said first and second fluid piping segments are joined at an interconnection where the fluid piping is substantially fixed to the swivel tower by fixing device. | ||
