Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a mechanical application specially studied for working in a marine environment.
  • Autonomous semi-submerged station designed from materials of very high resistance to marine erosion: stainless steel and unbreakable transparent plastic. Directly interests marinas.
  • the present invention consists of a device for cleaning immersion of the hulls of pleasure vessels.
  • the traditional method consists, for cleaning, to take the hull out of the water and to subject it, by the ridge, to various compressions which are harmful to the whole of the pleasure unit.
  • the device according to the invention overcomes these drawbacks. It ensures perfect cleaning, under visual surveillance, of all surfaces to be treated in immersion, by pressure jets of fresh or salt water, from two rigid or telescopic lances mounted on sealed ball joints, through a cabin mobile, semi-immersed in transparent, unbreakable plastic.
  • the displacement of the cabin is carried out by means of a pulley, in a longitudinal direction by means of grooved wheels, trapped in rails themselves fixed to a pontoon preferably made of reinforced concrete.
  • This movement can also be done according to the same principle on the vertical part of a platform.
  • the floating pontoon As for the floating pontoon, it is immobilized, in fairground mooring, by ballast operated by winches. It is arranged in such a way that a place for the autonomous pump is planned, as well as a hold or trunk and a refuge for the operators. In any case, it must be fitted with a high pressure safety valve at the outlet of the pump. Short cabin protection along the length of the pontoon or quay, from bolted or cemented supports.
  • the device according to the invention being valid over long lengths, the volumetric dimensions and occupied surfaces will depend on demand.
  • the device comprises a mobile, transparent cabin made of unbreakable plastic.
  • These pressure lances are connected, by flexible pipes and reinforced with a tee or Y bypass 3 fixed on the side wall.
  • Each ball joint 1 is trapped by two flanged discs 30, fixed on either side on the wall, by bolts 31.
  • O-rings allow the lances to move in or out and seal the cabin.
  • Figure 4 and Figure 5 show the design of the ball joint, discussed above.
  • the flexible and reinforced conduits 4, supplying the two pressure lances 2, are crimped to the two ends of a tee or Y 3 bypass connected itself to another flexible and reinforced conduit 7, fixed on the side wall and on which are placed, at breast height, a high pressure valve 34 and about twenty centimeters above, a pressure gauge 35.
  • FIG. 6 shows the above exposed power supply.
  • a steering wheel 6 provided with a crank generates, by its rotary movement, the drive of a pinion 8 welded to a sleeve 9 playing on ball bearings fitted on a fixed axis itself welded to a disc 10 bolted to the wall.
  • the station's operating report is directly linked to the obligation that boaters have to unload hulls at least once a year.
  • the industrial report is directly linked to the services rendered by the station.
  • the prospective reveals an interesting industrialization both in terms of job creation and in terms of the entry of foreign currency, especially if the equipment and materials used are French.
