Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for the rescue of one of Ship in distress with the help of a throw line one at the end attached to the person's body laying loop, consisting of a lifting device and a guiding device provided with a blocking device for the throwing line.
  • This rescue device is known from WO 87/06905 become manually operated by two men and finds mainly for low-board vessels application.
  • the pickup of the shipwrecked one serves to the ship one by hand ejected and retrieved by hand throwing line with one at the end attached to the body of the shipwrecked to be laid loop, the lifting out of the water and hoisting up to the railing is a lifting device in Form of a pulley with an upper and a lower one Roller holder for a hand-drawn suspension rope, with the the lower roll holder is hoisted up. At the bottom and on the upper roll holder is ever an eyelet, through the leash is pulled.
  • This device can not protect the shipwrecked from when hoisting on rough seas against the side wall of the Ship to be beaten.
  • the castaway can also not be protected from the difficult maneuvering its off-board decoupling from the hoist and the throwing line a second time to crash and to fall into the rough sea.
  • This type of rescue is time consuming and at coarser sea for the rescuers and their lifeboat dangerous, especially often one the rescuer has to jump into the sea, around the riding loop the person in distress.
  • Lifter also for the fetching of rescue from distress People use, because this lifter, quite in contrast to lifeboats, very quickly ready for use is and is always strong enough to not only the person in distress, but additionally with the same hub also get two rescuers on board.
  • Such Lifter also has to be used for loading of a ship so long or so extendable Boom, that when lifting the person in distress person this even in heavy seas and storm not in contact with the ship's side can come.
  • the invention avoids the disadvantages of the prior art. It is the object of the invention, with simple means a Possibility to create the person in distress with the person Throwing line on the water surface up to the dense above to use the crane surface, then attach the throwing line to the crane hook so that it follows can not run back the pull and so then the person in distress with the crane by lifting the person Crane hook out of the water over the railing to the deck too to lift.
  • a link between Crane hook and the rescue loop to create with which the Rescue loop on the throwing line pulled up to the crane hook and then lifted out of the water with the crane and can be spent on board.
  • the invention is that the lifting device on Onboard ship crane is that with the blocking device provided guiding device for the throwing line consists of two parallel plates, between which arranged the rollers for the throwing line and the blocking device are effective in one direction and switched off is, and whose weight is so great that its to the water surface lowered position when pulling on the throwing line only little changes, and that this guide device for the Throwing line is attached to the crane hook.
  • This design of the rescue device according to the present invention Registration saves the rescued person a bouncing and Scrubbing on the ship's side as well as the psychological burden of laborious work of being put on deck.
  • the guide attached to the crane hook and blocking device has so much mass that they are When pulling on the throwing line, little in their position changed when the leadership and. blocking device just above the water surface or at the water surface located and the throwing line pulled by hand becomes.
  • the person to be rescued first on the Water surface along to the close to or in the Water surface located guiding and locking device then, after reaching this Place with the power of the crane together with the management and Blocking device to be dug out of the water.
  • the in distress Person is drawn along the water surface Little effort is needed, which is easy on one Deck man is applied.
  • the lifting out the person in distress is much heavier, especially since this person along with the weighty Rescue device must be done. This hard work will made by the machine shown force of the crane.
  • the throwing line passes through the rope guiding and blocking device, To the person in distress first on horizontal way to transport. Then there is no danger which occurs without the guiding and locking device the person with increasingly steep sloping position of the throwing line during the collection process in a trough of the water surface comes free and then in a way Pendulum stroke beats against the ship's side.
  • the blocking device in this device ensures a prevention of Return of the throwing line during the process of the Retrieving the throwing line.
  • She is one of sport sailboats known device used there to do that Return of a line attached to the case after their Prevent catching up. It is a device that is on a leash gives the possibility unopposed in one direction to be pulled through, at train in the other direction however blocked.
  • this Blocking device By means of a lever on this Blocking device is the blocking effect on and off.
  • the blocking effect is especially when digging the person in distress from the water and in the vertical transport of that person from the Water surface needed on deck.
  • the blocking effect is so large that even several people at the same time from the Water lifted and lifted up on deck can.
  • This rescue device is extremely fast to use: While a crew member out of service crane in operation brings another crew member from within reach of the deck Crate the guiding and locking device with already solid leash and hang it on the crane hook. During the Einhssenvorganges can in the said box litter line with already attached lure Rescue loop are taken out and ejected, so that the person in distress already then the Rescue loop can be superior if the crane is still there is the guiding and locking device to the water surface to let down a process that is within one minute.
  • a simple and very cost effective construction of the Rescue device is achieved by the fact that the carrying device for the rollers and the blocking device two parallel plates, preferably made Stainless steel, between which are the rollers and the Rope brake are arranged. Because this device will be heavy should, in order to operate little and only slowly on the steel cable the crane to commute and to a stable as possible Bypass for the floating on the water surface and from the Umlenkort to steeply upward throwing line To form, it is recommended to use the stainless steel plates too finished and make them thick and stable.
  • the support device for the guide rollers and the brake encased in a padding is advantageous if the support device for the guide rollers and the brake encased in a padding is.
  • the padding provides protection for in Distressed person against injuries when they vom Swell against this device should, or provide protection for the device itself, though thrown them through the sea against the ship's side should be.
  • This padding can be easily attached to the device during its construction attach and secure securely to the unit when the Upholstery is housed in pockets that are on the outside the plates of the support device preferably with the help another mounted in the pocket plate attached are.
  • the throwing line one Stopper above the attachment for the around the body of the Person wearing loop to wear. This stopper is on the object attached to the throwing line, which or passing through the throwing line through the Seil Equipments- and Blocking device prevents.
  • the blocking device carries a lever for switching on and off the brake.
  • a buoyant and a non-buoyant, between which preferably a network is arranged is because this rescue loop unlike those with only a loop by sparing the circulation of person to be rescued.
  • the rescue device which consists of a Guiding and locking device 6 and a throwing line 7 consists, at the end of a two belts 8, 9 existing Rescue loop is attached.
  • the upper belt 8 is floatable and around the upper body of those in distress Person 2 placed, while the lower belt 9 is not is buoyant and sinks down, leaving the one to be rescued Person's legs through the looped shape Can attach lower strap.
  • Upper belt 8 and lower belt 9 are with their two ends in a closable hook 10 hooked at the end of the throwing line 7.
  • the onboard sailor 11 starts with the Rescue operation by catching the throwing line 7, this case unblocked by the guiding and blocking device 6 passes. Due to the weight of the leadership and Blocking device 6, which is close to the surface of the Lake is lowered, the rope course consists of one approached horizontal part between the person to be rescued 2 and the Seil Operationss- and blocking device 6 and a approached vertical part between the cable guide and Blocking device 6 and the throwing line 7 catching up Sailors 11.
  • This rope brake 13 lets go through the cable serving as a throwing line 7, when the direction of movement is towards the ship, in the Opposite direction, however, it prevents any movement. In this opposite direction, the braking force is so great that a or more men floating freely on the throw line 7 hang, lifted out of the water and spent on board can be.
  • the Bake 15, 16 of the rope brake are spaced apart and thus the braking force are canceled. This happens at the end of the rescue operation on deck of the ship 1, to release the rescued from the rescue device and the rescue device and the throw line 7 for a to make ready again.
  • FIGS 2 and 3 show sections through the Seil Equipments- and Blocking device 6.
  • This consists of two plates 17, the preferably made of stainless steel. These plates 17 carry bearings for the pulleys 18, between which as Throwing rope serving 7 runs and is deflected. Between these plates is also the rope brake 13 with their Brake shoes 15, 16 installed, of which at least the a brake shoe 15 carries a toothing 19 which extends through biting their tooth form into the rope 7 serving as a throwing line, when the rope 7 in the direction against the tooth direction of the To start toothing 19.
  • the brake shoes 15, 16 so far apart put that rope 7 free between them can run back and forth.
  • the two stainless steel plates 17 are not shown Connectors firmly connected. At this or at the Stainless steel plates 17 themselves are U-shaped hanger eyes 20 mounted in which the crane hook 5 is mounted.
  • Whirl a device that allows axial rotation a vertical axis allows to the cable guide and Blocking device a free mobility around this to give vertical axis.
  • this device can also between the wire rope of the crane and the crane hook be arranged.
  • a net between the two straps interferes with the creation of the Straps, if there is no rescuer in the water, when creating the Straps helps. However, the network is of great benefit when an unconscious person is to be recovered.
