Latest Patents

Lin Lin is associated with 1 patent: “Annular Anchor, Method for Calculating Antitorque Bearing Strength Thereof and Installing and Recycling Assemble for the Anchor.” The invention relates to ocean engineering and describes an anchor body open at both ends, with an outer connection portion for attaching mooring components. By omitting the top cover used in traditional suction anchors, the design avoids resistance from that cover during descent and allows the anchor to be installed below the seabed more simply and quickly. The disclosure also covers a method for calculating the anchor’s antitorque bearing strength and an assembly for installing and recycling it.

Career Highlights

Lin Lin is associated with China Three Gorges Corporation. His patent highlights an engineering approach intended to simplify anchor installation while addressing the anchor’s bearing strength and recovery.

Collaborations

The provided information names Lunbo Luo and Changping Sun as Lin Lin’s coworkers. It does not specify their roles in the patent or whether they collaborated on the invention.

Conclusion

Lin Lin’s annular anchor patent presents a design for below-seabed installation that removes the top-cover resistance found in traditional suction anchors, alongside methods for assessing strength and handling installation and recovery.
