Abstract

A dual-sided, or reversible, inflatable rescue and safety raft consists of an inflated grille provided with mesh netting spanning open regions to accommodate personnel, manually releasable locking devices that close access openings in the netting to permit personnel to board from underneath the floating grille, both surfaces of the grille being provided with fasteners for safety handles and belts; one or more containers with compactly folded modular floor and shelter units that can be fastened to the surface of the grille (or removed from the raft for use as tents on land) are repositionably secured to the grille in the event that the containers are submerged when the raft is initially disposed in the water.

Description

RADEAU DE SURVIE REVERSIBLE COMPRENANT DES ARBIS AMOVIBLES REVERSIBLE SURVIVAL RAFT COMPRISING REMOVABLE ARBIS
Dispositif de sauvetage, sécurité, permettant la réversibilité d'un radeau de survie, abri(s)-tente(s) qui a pour but d'améliorer les conditions de survie sur un radeau, d'améliorer la qualité du sauvetage et de la sécurité et de créer des abris-tentes se fixant aussi bien sur le radeau qu'à terre.Rescue device, safety, allowing the reversibility of a liferaft, shelter (s) -tent (s) which aims to improve the conditions of survival on a raft, to improve the quality of rescue and safety and create tent shelters that can be attached to the raft as well as to the ground.
Selon l'arrière plan de la technique, le but du document PCT CH 99 / 00619 est d'assurer une plus grande surface d'impact sur la mer qu'un canot de sauvetage ordinaire et de permettre aux personnes qui peuvent se trouver coincées sous le dispositif lorsqu'il se déploie, de passer sur le dispositif et d'y rester, ceci grâce à des ajourages, déverrouillables, écartables et verrouillables, permettant aux naufragés de s'agripper au filet pour rejoindre l'un des ajourages. Il permet également en cas de besoins de s'accrocher au dispositif par les mains et par les pieds à des poignées et d'utiliser des ceintures de sécurité. Cependant, rien ne protège les rescapés des intempéries en mer froide, des vagues qui peuvent passer à travers le filet, ni du soleil, et si le radeau s'ouvre à l'envers, les naufragés sont privés de poignées et de ceintures de sécurité.According to the background of the technique, the purpose of document PCT CH 99/00619 is to ensure a greater surface area of impact on the sea than an ordinary lifeboat and to allow people who may be trapped under the device when it deploys, to pass over the device and to remain there, this thanks to openings, unlockable, retractable and lockable, allowing the shipwrecked to grab onto the net to join one of the openings. It also allows, if necessary, to hang onto the device by the hands and feet with handles and to use seat belts. However, nothing protects the survivors from bad weather in the cold sea, from waves which can pass through the net, or from the sun, and if the raft opens upside down, the shipwrecked are deprived of handles and seat belts .
Toujours selon l'arrière plan de la technique, le document DE 32 10 590 Al 23.03.82 mentionne un dispositif en eau libre qui est une bouée à multiples places, qui ne comporte pas de filet, dont des bâches couvrent qu'un certain nombre d'orifices et ne forment pas de plancher sur toute la surface. Des abris sont prévus, mais ils sont situés que sur certaines unités, ils sont fixes, ne peuvent pas communiquer entre eux et former des volumes multiples.Still according to the background of the technique, the document DE 32 10 590 Al 23.03.82 mentions an open water device which is a multi-place buoy, which does not include a net, of which tarpaulins cover only a certain number orifices and do not form a floor over the entire surface. Shelters are provided, but they are located only on certain units, they are fixed, cannot communicate with each other and form multiple volumes.
Les enfants peuvent glisser dans les ouvertures, les rescapés peuvent recevoir des éclaboussures, l'eau peut stagner sur les bâches et y former des poches et si les rescapés se précipitent sous l'abri, il va se créer un déséquilibre et la bouée multiple va se retourner, ce phénomène peut être aggravé lors d'accouplement d'unités dans une mer agitée, car rien ne garantit que les abris se placent tête-bêche de façon à équilibrer les charges, au contraire dans la panique si par malheur il n'est pas possible d'exécuter une telle manœuvre, bien des personnes devront également rester exposées aux intempéries.Children can slide in the openings, the survivors can receive splashes, the water can stagnate on the tarpaulins and form pockets there and if the survivors rush under the shelter, it will create an imbalance and the multiple buoy will turn around, this phenomenon can be aggravated when units are coupled in rough seas, because there is no guarantee that the shelters will be placed upside down so as to balance the loads, on the contrary in panic if unfortunately is not possible to perform such a maneuver, many people will also have to remain exposed to the weather.
Les canots de survie que l'on trouve dans le commerce sont d'une surface modeste, avec un nombre très limité de personnes à bord, les descentes d'avion, toboggans nécessitent un pliage savant avec un système de liens cédants à certaines pression pour qu'ils s'ouvrent dans le bon sens.The survival boats that we find in the trade are of a modest surface, with a very limited number of people on board, the descents of plane, toboggans require a learned folding with a system of yielding links at certain pressures to that they open the right way.
Le but de la présente invention est donc de fournir un dispositif de sauvetage sécurité pouvant remédier à ces désavantages et inconvénients. Les avantages de la présente invention résident en le fait que ce radeau de survie est rendu totalement réversible grâce à des fixations réceptrices mâles réparties sur les deux faces du radeau permettant la mise en place de planchers, d'abris amovibles pouvant s'accoupler en réunissant plusieurs volumes ou un seul volume à l'endroit choisi sur le dispositif, sans se demander si le radeau va s'ouvrir dans le bon sens.The object of the present invention is therefore to provide a safety rescue device which can remedy these disadvantages and disadvantages. The advantages of the present invention reside in the fact that this liferaft is made completely reversible thanks to male receiving fixings distributed on the two faces of the raft allowing the installation of floors, removable shelters which can be coupled by bringing together several volumes or a single volume in the chosen location on the device, without wondering if the raft will open in the right direction.
Cette souplesse d'exécution est réalisée grâce à :This flexibility of execution is achieved thanks to:
• des fixations réparties sur les deux faces du canot• fasteners distributed on both sides of the boat
• des sacs amovibles contenant abri et plancher• removable bags containing shelter and floor

Voici un exemple d'exécution et d'utilisation non limitatif du dispositif.Here is an example of execution and non-limiting use of the device.
Le présent dispositif est constitué principalement d'une grille gonflable Fig.1, qui se déploie grâce à des moyens usuellement utilisés dans le domaine du gonflable, dont les mailles 6 sont garnies de filet 2 comportant des ajourages déverrouillables, écartables et reverrouillables 3, des poignées 4 et des ceintures de sécurité 5, qui sont réparties sur la grille 1.The present device consists mainly of an inflatable grid Fig.1, which deploys by means usually used in the inflatable field, whose meshes 6 are lined with net 2 comprising unlockable, retractable and re-lockable openings 3, handles 4 and seat belts 5, which are distributed on the grid 1.
Dans une première étape, lors d'un naufrage ou d'inondation, les personnes coincées sous le dispositif qui se déploie, déverrouillent les ajourages 3 passent sur le dispositif, referment les ajourages Fig.1. Dans une deuxième étape, le ou les naufragé(s) stabilisent ) le radeau en ajustant le lest à la position désirée Fig.12 a et 12b, Si le radeau s'est retourné, les ceintures de sécurité 5 qui étaient attachées lorsque le radeau s'est développé, sont visibles à travers le filet. Les naufragés dégagent les poignées 4, ce qui dégage en même temps les ceintures de sécurité 5, ils passent le tout sur le dispositif, soit par les mailles du filet 2 si elles sont assez larges, soit par l'ajourage 3 qu'ils auront ouvert, soit le long de la fixation du filet. Ils refixent les poignées 4 sur le nouvel endroit du dispositif; dégagent une extrémité du sac, puis l'autre, le font pivoter légèrement sur lui-même pour le faire ressortir par le même chemin, le fixe sur l'endroit du dispositif grâce à la partie réceptrice de la fixation 35 ou 45, Fig.1 lb, 12b, déploient la membrane destinée à constituer un plancher 7, Fig.1. et la fixe avec les moyens prévus à cet effet, du Velcro 10 par exemple, ceci pour se mettre un peu plus au sec.In a first step, during a sinking or flooding, people trapped under the device that deploys, unlock the openings 3 pass on the device, close the openings Fig.1. In a second step, the castaway (s) stabilize) the raft by adjusting the ballast to the desired position Fig. 12 a and 12b, If the raft has turned over, the seat belts 5 which were fastened when the raft has developed, are visible through the net. The shipwrecked people release the handles 4, which releases the seat belts 5 at the same time, they pass everything over the device, either by the mesh of the net 2 if they are wide enough, or by the perforation 3 which they will have open, either along the net attachment. They re-attach the handles 4 to the new location of the device; release one end of the bag, then the other, rotate it slightly on itself to bring it out by the same path, fixes it on the right side of the device thanks to the receiving part of the attachment 35 or 45, Fig. 1 lb, 12b, deploy the membrane intended to constitute a floor 7, Fig. 1. and fixes it with the means provided for this purpose, Velcro 10 for example, this to get a little more dry.
Dans une troisième étape, le ou les naufragés s'organise(nt) pour monter un abή 8 ou des abris individuels ou multiples. Un naufragé déplie la membrane qui sert d'abri 7, s'empare de la structure, dans cet exemple en forme de croisillon 19, Fig.8, branche la pompe musculaire 20 sur son embout 24 dans la structure, plonge le tuyau 21 dans l'eau, il peut le glisser entre le plancher et le côté de la maille de la grille, il pompe... Une fois la structure rigide, il fixe les deux montants 22 sur le bord de la maille par du Velcro 10 fixé sur la grille, ensuite il monte, déploie la structure suivante, puis dégage les soufflets 17 tenus par des attaches 31, détache les deux montants 22 amovibles de la première structure pour venir les fixer avec du Velcro 10 prévu sur le haut de la deuxième structure, les soufflets (17) s'ouvrant pour donner la longueur nécessaire. Un autre naufragé ayant monté un abri à côté, ils décident d'avoir plus d'espace, les pans latéraux 18 sont relevés et sont fixés l'un dessus dessous l'autre sous le toit de l'abri voisin par du Velcro 10, ils fixent la base de l'abri avec des fermetures éclair 16 prévues sur le dispositif. Ils sont alors à l'abri des intempéries et peuvent se tenir aux poignées 4 et s'attacher avec les ceintures de sécurité 5. Si l'eau entre, ils peuvent la vider en soulevant un coin de plancher 7.In a third stage, the shipwrecked survivor (s) organize (s) to set up an abή 8 or individual or multiple shelters. A shipwrecked man unfolds the membrane which serves as a shelter 7, takes hold of the structure, in this example in the form of a cross 19, Fig. 8, connects the muscular pump 20 to its end piece 24 in the structure, plunges the pipe 21 into water, it can slide it between the floor and the side of the mesh of the grid, it pumps ... Once the rigid structure, it fixes the two uprights 22 on the edge of the mesh by Velcro 10 fixed on the grid, then it rises, deploys the following structure, then releases the bellows 17 held by fasteners 31, detaches the two removable uprights 22 from the first structure in order to fix them with Velcro 10 provided on the top of the second structure, the bellows (17) opening to give the necessary length. Another shipwrecked person having mounted a shelter next to it, they decide to have more space, the side panels 18 are raised and are fixed one below the other under the roof of the neighboring shelter by Velcro 10, they fix the base of the shelter with zippers 16 provided on the device. They are then sheltered from the weather and can hold on to the handles 4 and fasten with the seat belts 5. If the water enters, they can empty it by lifting a corner of the floor 7.
Dans l'hypothèse où ils doivent accoster, et venir camper sur terre, ils emmènent un ou plusieurs sac(s) 11 et ils pourront établir leur campement à l'intérieur des terres, grâce aux fixations, ganses 14 réparties sur un côté du sac et sur le pourtour de l'abri 8 et du plancher 7, Fig. 8.In the event that they have to dock, and come to camp on land, they take one or more sack (s) 11 and they can establish their camp inland, thanks to the fixings, loops 14 distributed on one side of the sack and on the periphery of the shelter 8 and the floor 7, FIG. 8.
Ce type de tente, qui rentre dans un sac allongé, est utilisable avec ou sans canot de survie, dans ce cas, il ne sera pas utile de munir les extrémités du sac de fixations mâles, mais de ganses pour y fixer des piquets, la base des planchers, abris pouvant être fixés ensembles de façon étanches. Concernant les fixations des pans, des planchers aux boudins, on peut utiliser des attaches, des ganses ou boutonnières avec des boutons, des lanières avec pressions, des lanières avec des boutons, du Velcro, des mousquetons, des fermetures éclairs étanches, des œillets avec des attaches, cette liste n'est pas limitative.This type of tent, which fits in an elongated bag, can be used with or without a survival boat, in this case, it will not be useful to provide the ends of the bag with male fixings, but with loops to fix stakes, the base of floors, shelters which can be fixed together in a watertight manner. Concerning the fastening of the sides, the floors to the tubes, one can use fasteners, loops or buttonholes with buttons, straps with snaps, straps with buttons, Velcro, snap hooks, waterproof zippers, eyelets with of fasteners, this list is not exhaustive.
Les membranes, plancher et abri sont fixées au sac de toutes les façons possibles. Elles sont collées, thennosoudées, cousues, rivetées, puis roulées, repliées sur elles-mêmes, tenues par des lanières avec pression, avec des attaches, du Velcro, des mousquetons, des fermetures éclair, ganses et boutons, cette liste n'est pas limitative.The membranes, floor and shelter are attached to the bag in any way possible. They are glued, then welded, sewn, riveted, then rolled, folded on themselves, held by straps with pressure, with fasteners, Velcro, carabiners, zippers, loops and buttons, this list is not limiting.
L'enveloppe des sacs est munie de poignée(s), lanière(s), Velcro permettant de mieux les saisir sous le radeau.The envelope of the bags is provided with handle (s), strap (s), Velcro allowing to better grip them under the raft.
Les deux membranes sont réunies dans un sac, elles sont fixées l'une derrière l'autre,- la membrane plancher devant et la membrane abri, avec sa structure, derrière. Les sacs se fixent de façon amovible sur la grille grâce à des fixations réceptrices mâle 33 et 43 qui sont réparties aussi bien à l'endroit qu'à l'envers du dispositif. Les fixations femelles 35 et 45 sont fixées sur les extrémités des sacs et viennent s'emboîter dans les fixations mâles. Ces fixations mâles sont réparties sur la majorité ou l'ensemble de la grille et permettent ainsi de poser sur la grille un certain nombre de sacs 11 contenant les deux membranes, plancher 7, abri 8, ce qui allégé le dispositif car il n'y a pas des sacs partout et laisse le choix de planter sa ou ses tentes là où on le désire. Il en est de même pour les poignées 4, elles sont rendues amovibles par le même genre de fixations mâle/femelle.The two membranes are gathered in a bag, they are fixed one behind the other, - the floor membrane in front and the shelter membrane, with its structure, behind. The bags are removably attached to the grid by means of male receptive fasteners 33 and 43 which are distributed both at the place and at the back of the device. The female fasteners 35 and 45 are fixed on the ends of the bags and come to fit in the male fasteners. These male fixings are distributed over the majority or the whole of the grid and thus make it possible to place on the grid a certain number of bags 11 containing the two membranes, floor 7, shelter 8, which makes the device lighter because there is has no bags everywhere and leaves the choice to pitch his or her tents where desired. It is the same for the handles 4, they are made removable by the same kind of male / female fasteners.
Les fixations amovibles pour les sacs contenant les membranes planchers et abris, sont des pièces réceptrices femelles en forme de demi cône par exemple 35, avec un orifice 36. Elles sont fixées sur les boudins. Dans ces pièces réceptrices viennent s'emboîter par exemple, un système de tirette, languette à ressort ou avec un bouton poussoir 34. Le bouton s'engage dans l'orifice et fixe le sac à la grille. Fig. l i a, 11b, l ie. Une variation d'exécution est une languette repliée sur elle-même faisant ressort 43, avec un espace pour y placer le pouce, cette languette est pourvue de deux tétons 44 qui viennent s'emboîter dans deux trous 36 prévus à cet effet sur la pièce femelle réceptrice fixée sur le boudin. Fig.12a, 12b. Ces fixations mâles sont montées, aux extrémités du sac ou par exemple aux extrémités d'une bande plate flexible fixée sous le sac, une version peut être réglable en longueur, pour s'adapter à toute dimension de sac, cette bande sera enfilée dans un ourlet ouvert aux deux bouts sous le sac, ceci n'étant pas limitatif.The removable fasteners for the bags containing the floor and shelter membranes are female receiving parts in the form of a semi-cone, for example 35, with an orifice 36. They are fixed to the tubes. In these receiving parts are fitted, for example, a zipper system, spring tab or with a push button 34. The button engages in the orifice and fixes the bag to the grid. Fig. l i a, 11b, l ie. A variation of execution is a tongue folded back on itself making spring 43, with a space to place the thumb there, this tongue is provided with two pins 44 which come to fit in two holes 36 provided for this purpose on the part female receptor attached to the rod. Fig. 12a, 12b. These male fasteners are mounted, at the ends of the bag or for example at the ends of a flexible flat band fixed under the bag, a version can be adjustable in length, to adapt to any size of bag, this band will be threaded in a hem open at both ends under the bag, this is not limiting.
Le même type de pièce réceptrice peut être faite pour la fixation amovible des poignées, les deux fixations réceptrices étant collées, thermosoudées sur une plaque ou moulées, la plaque avec les fixations étant ensuite collée, thermosoudée, au boudin. En tirant la poignée et pressant le bouton 34 ou la languette 43 on dégage la poignée 4, d'un côté puis de l'autre.The same type of receiving part can be made for the removable fixing of the handles, the two receiving fixings being glued, heat-sealed on a plate or molded, the plate with the fixings then being glued, heat-sealed, to the tube. By pulling the handle and pressing the button 34 or the tongue 43, the handle 4 is released, on one side then on the other.
Ce type de fixations peut être adapté pour la fixation des arrêtes, montants 22 à la grille. Il est également possible d'utiliser des clips de ceinture de sécurité, fermetures éclair. Ces exemples ne sont pas limitatifs.This type of fixing can be adapted for fixing the edges, uprights 22 to the grid. It is also possible to use seat belt clips, zippers. These examples are not limitative.
Toutes les fixations des sacs, des poignées, des arrêtes, montants des abris, fixations des planchers seront disposés sur les deux côtés de la grille.All bag attachments, handles, edges, shelter uprights, floor attachments will be arranged on both sides of the grid.
Variation : les sacs peuvent être rendus amovibles par une fixation composée d'un tube muni d'une fente 32 fixé sur le long du bord du sac comme pièce réceptrice et d'un bourrelet ferme 26 fixé sur une pièce de tissu 23 rapportée sur la grille. Le bourrelet 26 est glissé grâce à la fente à l'intérieur du tube. Le bourrelet peut être en prolongement du tissu ou à angle droit, fixé au milieu .du tissu. Fig. 9a, 9b, 9c.Variation: the bags can be made removable by a fixing consisting of a tube provided with a slot 32 fixed along the edge of the bag as a receiving part and a firm bead 26 fixed on a piece of fabric 23 attached to the wire rack. The bead 26 is slid through the slot inside the tube. The bead can be an extension of the fabric or at a right angle, fixed in the middle of the fabric. Fig. 9a, 9b, 9c.
Variation : les sacs peuvent être rendus amovibles par la fixation sur le sac 11 de tronçons de tubes souples, rigides ou élastiques 28 Fig 10a avec une série le long de la maille, Fig. 10c les tronçons du sac et ceux de la maille étant joints en enfilant une tringle munie d'un chas 29 Fig. 10b avec une attache 31 pour fixer le tout Fig. 10a.Variation: the bags can be made removable by fixing flexible, rigid or elastic tube sections to the bag 11 28 Fig 10a with a series along the mesh, Fig. 10c the sections of the bag and those of the mesh being joined by threading a rod provided with an eye 29 FIG. 10b with a clip 31 to fix the whole Fig. 10a.
Les ceintures de sécurités sont rendues amovibles pas des mousquetons fixés à chaque extrémité, ce qui permet de les mettre bout à bout et constituer ainsi des chaînes, ceci n'étant pas limitatif.The seat belts are made removable by the carabiners attached to each end, which allows them to be placed end to end and thus constitute chains, this not being limiting.
Pour rendre un radeau réversible, l'emplacement des sacs et poignées sur la face envers du radeau devrait être signalé d'une façon ou d'une autre, ceci afin de ne pas perdre de temps pour trouver et dégager les sacs.To make a raft reversible, the location of the bags and handles on the reverse side of the raft should be indicated in one way or another, so as not to waste time finding and releasing the bags.
