  • Antenna masts have a very compact and cost-saving design is created for a submarine snorkeling device, which besides the known snorkeling function also the trouble-free or only negligible disturbed observation of the sea area around the submarine around and additionally allowed to participate in marine radio traffic.
  • a cost-saving design is also achieved in that the Actuators for optronics and radio antennas small and short can be held because optronics and radio antennas initially, since they are attached to the snorkel, indirectly with the help of it Linear actuator can be moved. Only when the snorkel, i.e. H. be out retractable tube, in its desired working position, which in relation can also be an intermediate position on its maximum stroke the short linear actuators are actuated so that then optronics and radio antennas in their working position, too an intermediate position can be moved.
  • Another advantage the invention is that the operational readiness of optronics and antennas can be reached much faster because of short travel distances must be covered to extend these functional devices.
  • the optronics also allows the workplace to be inside the submarine for the person holding the monitor assigned to the optronics observed, optimally selected in terms of its position can.
  • a still further advantage of the invention is that the usual Redundancy of the aforementioned devices for optical observation and Communication as well as for information gathering in the tower of the submarine is still guaranteed in an improved manner because of the compact design of the snorkeling device according to the invention a gain in space in the submarine tower is achieved for other devices and / or used for more people in the tower can.
  • An advantageous embodiment of the snorkeling device is that the individual compact units on the Outside of the extendable and retractable snorkel tube of the snorkel is mounted and that the compact units and that these compact units carrying snorkel tube from a common, streamlined Cladding are surrounded.
  • the short linear actuators consist of hydraulic cylinder drives.
