BUOY FOR SINGLE POINT MOORING SYSTEM

WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/004562

A1

A buoy for a single point mooring system relates to a buoy used in a turret mooring system. The buoy comprises a fixed cylinder (8), an upper buoy (4), a lower buoy (7) and a mooring mechanism. The fixed cylinder (8) is vertically disposed. A rotating joint (16) is disposed on the upper end of the fixed cylinder (8). The upper buoy (4) is freely rotatably sleeved on the upper part of the fixed cylinder (8). The lower buoy (7) is freely rotatably sleeved on the lower part of the fixed cylinder (8). An anchor chain fixing mechanism is disposed at the bottom of the fixed cylinder (8). The longitudinal section of the upper buoy (4) is a sector with a big top and a small bottom. The longitudinal section of the lower buoy (7) is a sector with a big bottom and a small top. The mooring mechanism is fixed on the upper side of the upper buoy (4). The buoy for a single point mooring system forms a structure that is big in the end and small in the middle, so that the influence of wind, waves, and streams on the buoy can be greatly reduced, the wind and wave resistance is improved, and the influence of tide rise and tide fall on the force on anchor chains is effectively alleviated.
