Abstract
Description
La présente Invention concerne un dispositif de repérage d'un corps meme mobile en vue de son sauvetage ou de
sauvetages successifs.The present invention relates to a device for locating a body even mobile for its rescue or
successive rescues.
Elle s'appliques notamment à la recherche de personnes en danger à la suite d'un naufrage ( course en solitaire ou par éauipej pêche en haute mer, navigation de plaisance...) ou qui se sont égnréevs ans le désert d'un rallye. It applies in particular to the search for people in danger following a shipwreck (single-handed race or by éauipej fishing on the high seas, pleasure boating ...) or who are entangled in the desert of a rally .
-Ce dispositif nécessite l'emploi de deux instruments complémentaires : unémetteur et un récepteur. Chaque émetteur peut influer sur n'importe quel récepteur se trouvant dans sa zone de couverture d'-ondes. -This device requires the use of two complementary instruments: a transmitter and a receiver. Each transmitter can influence any receiver in its wave coverage area.
D'une part, l'émetteur électronique étanche, fixé sur chacue personne susceptible d'être en danger ( sou; forme de bracelet ou de pendentif ) se déclenche automatiquement en cas d'immersion ou manuellement dans le cadre d'un emploi terrestre et émet des ondes ne pouvant être définies au stade actuel de l'invention. On peut également envisager un metteur à déclenchement mixte : automatique ou manuel selon les besoins du porteur de l'émetteur et les conditions d'utilisation. On the one hand, the waterproof electronic transmitter, attached to each person likely to be in danger (penny; form of bracelet or pendant) is activated automatically in the event of immersion or manually within the framework of a terrestrial employment and emits waves which cannot be defined at the present stage of the invention. We can also consider a mixed trigger transmitter: automatic or manual depending on the needs of the wearer of the transmitter and the conditions of use.
Après- étude du projet, et en vue de la fabrication de l'émetteur, l'ingénieur pourra opter pour l'une de ces deux variantes : un système de fréquence fixe, chaque émetteur étant équipé au départ d'une fréquence bien personnelle, ou un système à fréquence variable mais réglable, Dans ce dernier cas, les organisateurs d'une course seraient tenus d'at t; user une fréquence a chaque concurrent avant le départ. After study of the project, and with a view to manufacturing the transmitter, the engineer may opt for one of these two variants: a fixed frequency system, each transmitter being equipped at the start with a very personal frequency, or a variable but adjustable frequency system. In the latter case, the organizers of a race would be required to attend; use a frequency for each competitor before the start.
Pour ajouter un côté pratique à l'appareil, et si ses caractéristique propres le permettent ( par exemple les di musions ) on peut également envisager d'y incorporer uu système d'horlogerie. To add a practical side to the device, and if its own characteristics allow it (for example the di musions) one can also consider incorporating a clock system.
D'autre part, le bloc de réception étanche, appareil unique qui comporte plusieurs fonctions : est équipé d'un avertisseur sonore et d'un voyant lumineux ( indépendants dans leur fonctionnement du récepteur radio et des indica- teurs de direction et de distance ) qui interviennent pour signaler qu'un émetteur s'est mis enmarche. L'utilisateur peut alors manipuler le récepteur ( tuner digital ) en vue d'une recherche automatique de la fréquence émise. A la' sui- te de cette manoeuvre, il reçoit l'indication de la direction à suivre pour localiser 1a personne porteuse de l'émetteur, et celle de la distance à parcourir pour parvenir jusqu'à elle, ces indications variant tant au cours des déplacements de l'émetteur que du récepteur. On the other hand, the waterproof reception unit, a unique device which has several functions: is equipped with an audible warning and an indicator light (independent in their operation of the radio receiver and the direction and distance indicators) who intervene to signal that a transmitter has started operating. The user can then manipulate the receiver (digital tuner) for an automatic search for the transmitted frequency. Following this maneuver, he receives the indication of the direction to follow to locate the person carrying the transmitter, and that of the distance to be traveled to reach it, these indications varying so much during displacements of the transmitter than of the receiver.
Un autre équipage, recevant l'appel de détresse, peut également se porter au secours de la personne en difficulté s'il n'est pas averti par radio que le ou les coéquipiers se chargent de l'opération. Another crew, receiving the distress call, can also come to the rescue of the person in difficulty if they are not notified by radio that the team member (s) are in charge of the operation.
Le sauvetage étant effectué, on arrête manuellement l'émetteur, ce qui stoppe les fonctions du récepteur tant au niveau des avertisseurs sonore et lumineux que bien sar au niveau des indications de direction et de distance. The rescue being carried out, the transmitter is manually stopped, which stops the functions of the receiver both at the level of the audible and luminous warning devices and of course at the level of the indications of direction and distance.
