Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a support structure to be used to sustain a boat when said boat is ashore.
  • every boat has a bottom whose cross section is shaped as a more or less deep V.
  • the boat cannot be directly set down on the ground because, due to the reduced bearing surface of the keel, it would be in an unstable condition.
  • the boat is set down on specifically prepared ways, whose shape is complementary to that of the hull of the boat itself.
  • supports for boats are also known, similar to stands, to be positioned under the hull in predetermined positions, so that the boat bears for instance on four or more of said supports.
  • the aim of the present invention is to solve the aforesaid problems of the prior art, providing a support structure for boats that comprises one or more pairs of sustaining elements, each of said sustaining elements being apt to be positioned underneath a hull of a boat, so that to provide a support to said boat when it is ashore, said structure being characterised in that it further comprises means for connecting said sustaining elements, apt to prevent them from moving away from each other during use.
  • the main advantage of the structure according to the present invention is provided by the fact that, since the structure is completely adjustable, it can be simply adapted to any hull shape.
  • a second advantage is given by the fact that the structure assures that the support is absolutely secure, because it is provided with securing elements able to prevent the sustaining elements from accidentally escaping their pre-set position.
  • FIG. 1 shows an example of prior art boat support 1.
  • the subsequent figure 2 is a perspective view of a first embodiment of a boat supporting structure 10 according to the present invention.
  • Two pairs of sustaining elements 11, 12 and 13, 14 are respectively positioned so as to be able to receive the hull of a boat.
  • each of the sustaining elements is completely adjustable and can easily be adapted to each specific hull shape.
  • the structure 10 comprises connecting means apt to connect the sustaining elements 11, 12 and 13, 14.
  • transversal junction elements 15, 16 are provided, each being apt to connect the sustaining elements belonging to the pair itself.
  • Each of said transversal elements 15, 16 is adjustable in length, in such a way as to allow the positioning of the sustaining elements at a pre-determined mutual distance.
  • transversal junction elements are made in the form of telescopic bars apt to be locked in pre-defined positions, for instance by means of gudgeon pins to be inserted into respective holes.
  • Two longitudinal junction elements 17, 18 are instead respectively positioned so as to rigidly connect two sustaining elements belonging to different pairs, for instance the element 11 with the element 13, as well as the element 12 with the element 14.
  • the sustaining elements are connected to the longitudinal junction elements in an adjustable manner, so as to be able to be positioned at the prescribed distance from each other.
  • a locking system apt to prevent any additional sliding of the sustaining elements during use, for instance by means of the insertion of securing gudgeon pins in corresponding holes provided on the junction elements themselves.
  • the structure 10 provides, for its two pairs of sustaining elements 11, 12 and 13, 14, corresponding holding elements 19, 20, apt to sustain part of the weight of the boat.
  • the holding elements 19, 20 are provided in the form of belts made of traction-resistant fabric, so as to easily adapt to the specific shape of the hull.
  • the holding elements 19, 20 mutually connect the upper part of the corresponding sustaining elements whereto they are anchored, preventing them from moving away by action of the force exerted by the weight of the hull.
  • a known lifting device 21 can advantageously be used to raise the boat and lay it onto the structure 10 after adjusting said structure according to the dimensions of the hull.
  • the subsequent figure 3 shows a detail of the first embodiment of the structure according to the present invention, in particular a first sustaining element 11.
  • the sustaining element 11 comprises a bearing base 31, an adjustable frame 32 and a support 33.
  • Said support 33 is hinged to the frame 32, in such a way as to be able to vary its inclination, the better to adapt itself to the shape of the hull 2.
  • the holding element 19 can advantageously be connected in correspondence with the upper end of the sustaining element 11 by means of an adjustable locking element 35 to allow the correct tensioning of the holding element.
  • Figure 4 shows a second sustaining element 40 according to the present invention.
  • the sustaining element 40 comprises a bearing base 41, a frame 42, a support 43 and a locking element 35 of a holding element 19.
  • the frame 42 provides a greater possibility of additional adjustment relative to the first embodiment.
  • the load-bearing element 44 of the frame is hinged, so as to be able to rotate relative to the base 41, on a pin 45.
  • the sustaining element assumes an inclined position in such a way as to contrast even more effectively the force exerted by the weight of the hull.
  • Said adjustment is effected by acting on a screw device 46, connected between the base 41 and the load-bearing element 44.
  • the transversal junction elements are in this case constituted by a belt 47 made of traction-resistant fabric, anchored by means of hooks 48 appropriately provided on the frame 42 of each sustaining element.
  • the subsequent figure 5 shows a second embodiment of a support structure according to the present invention obtained with a combination of sustaining elements according to the present invention.
  • a structure 50 comprises two or more pairs of sustaining elements 51, preferably connected to each other by mutual connection means 52, 53, 54.
  • connection means comprise a plurality of transversal junction elements 52, for instance one in correspondence with each pair of sustaining elements and two or more longitudinal junction elements 53 that complete the structure.
  • junction elements both the transversal ones and the longitudinal ones, are preferably adjustable in length, for instance by means of telescopic mechanisms, in order to perfectly adapt the dimensions of the structure to those of the boat to be supported.
  • said connecting means further comprise one or more tie rods 54, each connected between sustaining elements belonging to a same pair, so as to further stiffen the structure and maintain in position the sustaining elements when they are under the weight of the boat.
  • the tie rods 54 can for instance be embodied by steel cables tensioned by respective tensioning devices 55, for instance of the screw type, or be embodied by metallic bars whose length can be adjusted acting on said screw tensioning devices.
  • Figure 6 is a view of one of the sustaining elements according to said third embodiment of the present invention.
  • a sustaining element 51 comprises an additional reinforcing strut 56, particularly useful to support lateral loads, for instance due to wind gusts.
  • the strut 56 is connected in an articulated way to the load-bearing element 57, by means of bars 58 hinged to both ends and preferably of adjustable length.
  • the reinforcing strut 56 itself has adjustable length.
  • An additional advantage of a structure according to the present invention is given by the fact that all sustaining elements are positioned and connected to a base frame constituted by the described longitudinal and transversal junction elements.
