DOCKSIDE CONNECTION FOR SHIPS HAVING AN ARTICULATED CRANE

摘要

In order to provide a device (1) for electrically connecting a multi-phase ship distribution network (2) of a ship (9) to a multi-phase onshore supply network (3) having a supply network connection (4) arranged onshore that can be connected to a ship network connection of the ship distribution network (2) at least in some sections by means of at least one cable connection (8), wherein a fast and secure connection of the onshore supply network to the ship distribution network is enabled by the device, wherein during the normal operation, ship movements can be reliably compensated, at least one articulated arm (10) used as a support for one or each cable connection (8) is proposed, which articulated arm (10) comprises arm segments (11,12,13,14) that are connected to each other by means of at least one articulated connection (17), wherein an articulation drive (18) is associated with each articulated connection (17) and is provided to mutually pivot the arm segments (11,12,13,14), which are connected to each other by means of the articulated connection (17), which is associated with said articulation drive.
