How to untie the winded anchor chains?

2022-11-17
Everyone on board knows that a ship cannot stop without an anchor. It can be seen from this that the role of an anchor is so great that the anchor chain used to connect the anchor and the hull is even more important. Without an anchor chain, the ship cannot be connected to the hull, and the role of an anchor is lost. Sometimes the anchor chain between the ship and the ship gets entangled. How to untie them has become a concern of the crew,

Now let's talk about how to untie the entangled anchor chain:



1) Do a good job of hanging cables and other cables and shackles, and do a good job of lifting and sitting plates. If you can put down a lifeboat to help with the operation.
2) Twist the "force chain" to make the flowers float on the water. When necessary, tie the knot under the twist with a white cable to prevent the twist from falling.
3) Release the hanging rope and safety rope from the side of the "idler chain" to connect the shackle. One end of the hanging rope and the safety rope is fastened and wound on the bollard at the head of the ship.
4) Use a special machine to clamp the idler chain, and then use the windlass to release the idler chain and put it on the deck until another link is put on the deck.
5) Open the connecting link. How quickly can the rear end chain untie the anchor chain wreath to connect the outgoing cable? The other end of the outgoing cable is fixed on the bollard.
6) Connect one end of the lead rope to the chain link at the back of the removed idler chain, release the other end from the idler chain barrel, wind a circle from the other direction around the idler chain, pull it back from the idler chain barrel, and wind it on the drum.
7) Open the chain stopper, take back the lead rope, release the lead rope, and let the idler chain get entangled with the force chain and untied, then it will still be received from the lead rope to the deck through the idler chain barrel.
8) If it is a single flower, the anchor chain link can be installed, the lead cable and the outgoing cable can be released, and the idler chain can be tightened.
