Chapter 195: Armor
At dawn, Liu Lao carpenter of the wood processing plant of Huaxia Villa received the arrangement of the Ministry of State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, put down his work completely, and brought a group of carpenters and apprentices to the wharf, they needed to carry out a comprehensive refit of the cargo ship. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The first task assigned by the Ministry of State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration was to lay out the cargo hold of the bulk carrier with wooden planks, leaving only some square holes with railings in the positions specified in the drawings, and there were no stairs under the square holes, and there were more than 20 such square holes on both sides of the iron ship, and I don't know what they were used for.
The huge pit in the cargo hold is divided longitudinally into three columns with thick wooden piles and strong steel beams, the middle column is two meters wide, and two sets of conveyor belts in different directions are placed opposite each other, one to the bow and the other to the stern.
The width of the conveyor belt is only 60 centimeters, and there is a walkway on each side.
The power of the conveyor belt is driven by a DC motor, which makes it easy to adjust the conveyor speed, and the additional crank handle can also be converted to manual drive without power supply.
The other two columns, each four meters wide, are not completely separated from the aisle, but are movable railings made of square logs, which are placed from the top into the channel steel fixed on the wooden stakes, and the height of the railing can be increased and decreased according to the number of square logs.
There is a horizontal movable partition between these two columns of space every three meters, and the partition is the same as the movable railing, but the channel steel on both sides of these partitions is smaller, and the partition material is not square wood but wood planks of the same specification.
In this way, after the partitions on both sides of the aisle are filled, there are small rooms of 12 square meters, which can be used for temporary occupancy, and can also be classified and stored when transporting goods.
The purpose of these partitions is also to reduce the accidental injuries caused by loose items flying around in the cargo hold in the event of a violent impact, and the small space makes it easier to stabilize the body and prevent serious injuries.
After all, this cargo ship is ready to be used for battle, and it will inevitably collide with the large wooden ships of this world.
Because the cargo hold is a standard rectangle, with modern connecting components such as advanced power tools and bolts, coupled with the advantages of traditional mortise and tenon structure for easy installation, and sufficient manpower and material resources, it only took two days for the entire cargo ship to be built into a huge water platform.
Then, the dump truck pulled in thin steel plates one millimeter thick, and some small holes had been drilled in the sides of the steel plates.
Although the steel plate is very thin, only one millimeter thick, but this is also no way, the current processing equipment of Huaxia Villa does not have the ability to open holes in the thick steel plate, and the welding technology is not a day or two can be mastered well, and it is more convenient to replace the damaged parts directly with bolts.
Moreover, the purpose of laying this layer of steel plate is only to prevent the direct damage of the stone of the stone throwing machine to the wooden deck, under the action of the steel plate, the stress area will be expanded, thereby reducing the pressure of the stress point, as long as the steel plate can not be directly penetrated, the deck below is not easy to be smashed.
At the same time, this layer of steel can also prevent the other party from using tung oil and other things to burn the wooden deck, and it is the best solution to be prepared.
A kind of curved metal wiring plate is used in the gaps of the steel plates, which can not only hide those bolt caps from causing physical injury to the people on the boat when they fall, but also can be used as a line laying, and can also provide a place for the people above to stabilize their bodies when the hull shakes violently.
If there were no of these curved metal wiring boards on the deck, a single impact could cause the person on the steel plate to slide more than ten meters, and anything could be fatal.
Everyone has already been numb by these strange things that Huaxia Villa often takes out, anyway, if you want to make steel into such a thick and consistent steel plate, you can't do it anyway, let alone the dense patterns on the steel plate, it's better to do things with peace of mind.
The tower crane easily lifted the steel plates to the designated position on the ship, and the weight-lifting posture looked really pleasing to the eye.
Some people would even rather give up the opportunity to work today to earn Huaxia coins, and squat to the side to watch how the huge iron ship was draped in iron armor.
Directly bolting these steel plates is much faster than welding, although it is too far from the firmness, but this does not affect the use, after all, Wei Minsheng has not thought about taking off and landing fighters on it.
In the middle of the wooden deck, there is a row of specially made five-meter-long container prefabricated houses that are not installed with steel plates, but bolted to a row of specially made five-meter-long prefabricated houses, after all, ordinary prefabricated houses cannot withstand the violent vibration of the impact.
These mobile homes have no windows, only doors at both ends, and people on board can quickly reach either side of the boat through these houses.
Almost all of the things placed in the mobile room are fixed, which have been installed in it when ordered, and the double-layer steel frame bed is bolted up and down, and the iron filing cabinet is also bolted to the wall of the container to hold some daily clothes and other things.
After more than 20 container mobile houses were fixed, a living area of five meters wide and 50 meters long was formed on the deck of the cargo ship.
The dump truck pulled out more and more things, long steel pipes, iron rods and blue "iron tiles", which were pulled from a courtyard on the edge of the dock to the bottom of the tower crane, and I don't know when so many things were transported to that yard.
A one-story shed was erected on the deck of the cargo ship, and a finger-thick wooden plank was propped up on top of the blue "iron tiles" to cover the entire platform.
In this way, even under the scorching sun, in the wind and rain, it will not affect everyone's activities on the deck in the slightest, and the thin wooden planks can block the arrows that float when they are thrown.
