This invention discloses a positioning and welding method for a ship stern thruster that relates to the technical field of ship manufacturing. A stern thruster is installed after adjusting and cutting hull stiffener panels according to the fitting condition of a prosthesis and a hull stiffener panel. The actions of manufacturing and installing the model, positioning the model structure by setting wire, adjusting the fitting condition of the model's stiffener panel and the hull stiffener panel can make it convenient to set wire and make it accurate to position the model. So the stern thruster is easy to install. The model can be repeatedly used, and the method is suitable for quantitative production.

The present disclosure relates to a houseboat assembly formed from a cabin assembly secured to a hull assembly. In some version of the houseboat assembly, the hull assembly may include a runoff flange. The runoff flange may include an inner flange, an outer flange, and a riser extending between the inner flange and the outer flange. The outer flange may extend along an imaginary longitudinal outer flange axis and the riser may extend along an imaginary longitudinal riser axis whereby the riser axis intersects the outer flange axis at an angle. In some versions of the houseboat assembly, the angle is an acute angle. More specifically, the angle may be between thirty and sixty degrees. In some versions of the houseboat assembly, the cabin assembly is secured to the inner flange of the runoff flange. Cross-members and deck boards may be secured to a roof of the cabin assembly.

The present invention relates to a heat-insulating structural material, which: firstly, can minimize or prevent a thermal bridge by improving the structure of the connection part of the heat-insulating structural material; secondly, improves insulation performance by arranging a vacuum insulation material inside the core layer of the heat-insulating structural material; and thirdly, increases structural stiffness by forming the core layer from a non-foaming polymer material having excellent structural performance, prevents gas from moving in or out of the vacuum insulation material through the air-tight adhesive structure of the core layer, and can improve fire protection performance so as not to be vulnerable to fire, and thus the present invention is universally applicable to fields requiring insulation ability and structural performance.

A hull-mounted installation conversion method in which some or all of first-use units placed on a hull and constituting a first-use installation are removed from the hull, and then second-use units are placed on the hull to construct a second-use installation. For example, the first-use units are medical units, and the first-use installation is a medical installation. Alternatively, the second-use units are medical units, and the second-use installation is a medical installation.
