VESSEL ELECTROMAGNETIC SPHERICAL FENDER AND UTILIZATION METHOD THEREOF

摘要

A vessel electromagnetic spherical fender and utilization method thereof; a spherical fender device has electromagnets (2) provided on two sides of a spherical rubber fender (1); after electromagnetic coils (2a) of all of the electromagnets (2) are connected in parallel, an electric cable (5) and a water-resistant power supply socket (6) are used to engage in electrical connection. The spherical fender device is used in a two-vessel anchoring state or in a sailing state for rapid vessel berthing, is capable of protecting against two vessels rigidly colliding and is capable of keeping two vessels from drifting apart. Said spherical fender device can be used for the safe, rapid berthing of such vessels as supply vessels, medical vessels and LNG fueling vessels, with other vessels or with large marine structures such as offshore platforms.
