水口水电站2×500t级垂直升船机

Vertical ship lift with a capacity of 2×500t in Shuikou Hydropower Station

水口水电站２×５００ｔ级垂直升船机为目前国内首座在建的大型全平衡式湿运垂直升船机，其设计、施工、制造及安装调试均属国内首次。目前其各项前期工作已全部结束，土建施工、机械设备及金属结构制造正在按计划进行，国际采购的关键设备年内将陆续到货。根据整个工程进度计划：１９９６年土建工程、机械设备及金属结构、电气设备制造完成，１９９７年金属结构及机电设备安装以及单项调试完成，１９９８年上半年整机联调完成并正式投入运行。垂直升船机作为解决高坝通航的一种有效途径，且有运行周期短、工程量少、节约能源、不耗水、建筑物结构紧凑易于布置等优点。但长期以来，由于种种原因，国内大型升船机领域始终停留在实验、理论的阶段，因此水口升船机的建设将是这一领域的一个突破，通过水口升船机的建设我们期望能够摸索出一条适合我国国情的建设大型升船机的道路，同时也为建设更大规模的升船机，特别是三峡升船机积累有益的经验。

The vertical ship lift of 2 ×500 t in Shuikou Hydropower Station is a undergoing large-scale full-balanced wetvertical ship lift which is the first one in the country at present. And its design, construction, manufacture, installation and test are also the first time in this country. Various antecedant works have been finished. The civil construction, mechanical equipment and metal structure manufacture are being conducted on schedule. The key equipmentwill be arrived within this year. According to the project schedule, civil works and the manufacture of machanicalequipment, metal structure and electric equipment should be completed in 1996; machanical equipment, metal structure and electric equipment should be completed in 1996; installation of metal structure and electric equipment andindividual adjusting and test should be completed in 1997; the jointly adjusting and test for whole machine shouldbe completed and should be put into operation in the first half of 1998. The vertical ship lift which is an effectiveway for solving the navigation problem of high dam has the advantages of short operation circle, small work quantities, energy-saving, no water consumption and the close structure of building which is convenient to arrangement.Since a long time, the construction of domestic large ship--lift has been always in the stage of test and theoretical.study. Thus the construction of Shuikou ship lift will be a breakthrough point so that we can explore a way of constructing large ship lift which is suitable to our country's conditions and also provide a useful experience for constructing even more large scale ship lift, especially for the ship lift of the Three Gorges Project.
