Abstract

Das erfindungsmäßige Rigg besteht aus einem um 360° drehbaren Profilmast, dessen Querschnitt dem Profil eines Flugzeugtragflügels ähnelt. Über diesen Mast sind mehrere Profilteile in Form eines Flugzeugtragflügelquerschnitts rechtwinklig zur Mastachse angeordnet, als Gerippe für die Segeltuchhülle, die über sie gezogen und an ihnen befestigt ist. Das komplette Rigg gleicht einem aufrecht auf dem Fahrzeug stehenden Flugzeugtragflügel und kann durch den um 360° drehbaren Mast und die in der Profilform veränder­ baren Profilteile beidseitig besegelt werden. Durch her­ kömmliche Falls kann die Segelfläche beliebig verkleinert werden, ohne daß sich die Profilform ändert. The rig according to the invention consists of a 360 ° rotatable profile mast, the cross section of which the profile of a Airplane wing resembles. There are several over this mast Profile parts in the form of an aircraft wing cross section arranged at right angles to the mast axis, as a framework for the Canvas cover that is pulled over them and attached to them is. The entire rig resembles an upright on the Vehicle aircraft wing standing and can by the mast rotatable through 360 ° and the profile shape changed barable profile parts can be sailed on both sides. Through her Conventional cases, the sail area can be reduced as desired without changing the profile shape.

Der Vorteil gegenüber allen herkömmlichen Riggs liegt im Wirkungsgrad der Windausbeute, der Fähigkeit, höher am Wind segeln zu können, besser vorm Wind zu segeln, durch das Fehlen von stehendem und laufendem Gut und weitge­ henst maschineller Bedienbarkeit auch für Handelsschiffe beliebiger Größe geeignet zu sein, und letztlich auf Vor- oder Beisegel jeder Art verzichten zu können. The advantage over all conventional rigs is in the efficiency of the wind yield, the ability to be higher on To be able to sail wind, better to sail in front of the wind, by the lack of standing and running goods and wide mechanical operability also for merchant ships any size to be suitable, and ultimately on pre or To be able to do without any sail.
