Description

Vorrichtung zum Verhüten des Durchkenterns von Segelbooten Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Verhüten des Durchkenterns von Segelbooten.Device for preventing overturning of sailing boats The invention relates to a device for preventing overturning of sailboats.

Es ist bekannt, daß aufblähbare Schwimmkörper im Innern von Wasserfahrzeugen und außenbords anzubringende aufblähbare Schwimmkörper das Absinken bei eindringendem Wasser im Fall eines Seeschadens verhindern können. Jedoch sind diese Einrichtungen nicht in der Lage, ein einmal gekentertes Boot am Durchkentern zu hindern.It is known that inflatable floating bodies in the interior of watercraft and inflatable floats to be attached outboard prevent the sinking in the event of a penetration Prevent water in the event of marine damage. However, these facilities are unable to prevent a capsized boat from overturning.

Die Gefahr des Kenterns bei Segelbooten ist allgemein bekannt. Ein durchgekentertes Segelboot kann nur in Ausnahmefällen aus dieser Lage befreit und auch nur mit aufwendiger Hilfe wiederaufgerichtet werden.The danger of capsizing in sailing boats is well known. A A capsized sailing boat can only be released from this position in exceptional cases and can only be straightened up again with extensive help.

Um das Kentern von Segelbooten zu verhindern, wurden mit festen Schwimmkörpern an der Mastspitze Versuche angestellt. Um jedoch ausreichende Auftriebskraft zu besitzen, sind feste Schwimmkörper so groß und schwer, daß sie die Segeleigenschaften zu stark behindern.In order to prevent the capsizing of sailing boats, solid floating bodies were used Experiments were made at the top of the mast. However, in order to have sufficient buoyancy own, solid floating bodies are so large and heavy that they improve the sailing properties hinder too much.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, diese Nachteile zu beheben und die Sicherheit beim Segeln zu erhöhen.The invention is based on the object of eliminating these disadvantages and to increase safety while sailing.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß gelöst, indem an der Mastspitze ein Behälter mit abdrückbarem Deckel befestigt wird, der einen Ballon in zusammengefalteter Form und eine mit dem Ballon verbundene Druckluftpatrone enthält, welche bei Wasserzutritt durch Chemikalienreaktion entladen wird und den Ballon aufbläst.According to the invention, this object is achieved by at the top of the mast a container with a push-off lid is attached, the balloon in folded Contains a form and a compressed air cartridge connected to the balloon, which, when water enters, contains is discharged by chemical reaction and inflates the balloon.

Der hülsenförmige Behälter ist durch den abdrückbaren Deckel regen- und spritzwassergeschützt. Sobald sich das Boot überlegt und die Mastspitze die Wasseroberfläche berührt, dringt durch Öffnungen Wasser in die Hülse ein.The sleeve-shaped container can be rain- and splash-proof. As soon as the boat thinks about it and the top of the mast the Touches the water surface, water penetrates the sleeve through openings.

Das eindringende Wasser bewirkt augenblicklich die Reaktion einer Chemikalienpatrone, wodurch die mit dem Ballon verbundene Druckluftpatrone entladen und der Ballon aufgebläht wird.The penetrating water instantly causes a reaction Chemical cartridge, which discharges the compressed air cartridge connected to the balloon and the balloon is inflated.

Derartige Auslösemechanismen sind in mehreren Variationen bekannt und verwendbar.Such trigger mechanisms are known in several variations and usable.

Der sich füllende Ballon hebt den Hülsendeckel ab und hält die Mastspitze durch seinen Auftrieb an der Wasseroberfläche.The inflating balloon lifts the sleeve cover and holds the top of the mast due to its buoyancy on the surface of the water.

Die Apparatur ist durch Auswechseln der Patronen und Zusammenlegen des Ballons unbeschränkt wiederverwendbar. Der aufgeblähte Ballon an der Mastspitze verhindert durch seine Schwimmkraft das Durchkentern des Bootes. Kielboote haben in dieser - horizontalen - Lage den Kielballast als aufrichtendes Moment im maximalen Wirkungsgrad und kehren damit in die normale Schwimmlage zurück.The apparatus can be reused without restriction by replacing the cartridges and folding the balloon. The inflated balloon at the top of the mast prevents the boat from overturning due to its buoyancy. In this - horizontal - position, keel boats have the keel ballast as a righting moment with maximum efficiency and thus return to the normal swimming position.

Offene, kiellose Boote inklusive Katamarane sind durchweg mit Schwimmtanks ausgerüstet,- die nach dem Kentern das Absinken des Bootes verhindern. Solche Boote kentern meist vollkommen durch, so daß der Mast senkrecht nach unten zeigt, und sind - falls überhaupt - nur mit großen Schwierigkeiten wieder aufzurichten. Mit der beschriebenen Vorrichtung wird das Durchkentern verhindert. Durch Gewichtsverlagerung, die der Mannschaft ist ausreichend ' kehren auch solche Boote in die normale Schwimmlage zurück.Open, keelless boats including catamarans are all equipped with floating tanks - which prevent the boat from sinking after capsizing. Such boats capsize usually completely through, so that the mast is vertically downward, and are - if at all - only with great difficulty up again. The device described prevents overturning. By weight shift, which is the team enough 'even those boats return to the normal swimming position.
