Definitions

  • the invention relates to a braking device for the boom of a sailboat.
  • Such a device is particularly useful during a jibing maneuver.
  • the latter is practiced when a sailboat sails in the downwind, when the boom is overflowed outside the sailboat.
  • the jibing maneuver is to change, voluntarily or involuntarily, the heading of the boat to make it cross the wind bed from the rear.
  • a main rope is then fixed or guided at its ends on each of the edges of the sailboat, for example to the lower shrouds.
  • the rope passes through the braking device, the latter being fixed under the boom.
  • These devices comprise a body equipped with fastening means, in particular at the boom or a control rope, and braking means of a main rope whose ends are fixed or guided in two points arranged on either side of the longitudinal center line of the sailboat.
  • the invention aims to overcome these disadvantages by providing an inexpensive braking device, lightweight, small in size and easy to install.
  • the invention relates to a braking device of the aforementioned type, characterized in that the braking means comprise at least a first passage opening of a loop of the main rope, formed in the body and a second opening in the body, substantially parallel to the first opening and inside which protrudes an element for retaining the loop by passing it around it.
  • the friction of the rope on the body is increased because of the different bends of the rope and the tension exerted on it.
  • the projecting element is constituted by a finger projecting towards the inside of the second opening, on the opposite side to the first opening, the length of the projecting element being less than the length. the second opening along the axis of the element.
  • the body comprises at least two passage openings of the loop of the main rope, substantially parallel to each other.
  • the braking power is all the more important as the number and the surface of the bending zones of the rope are important. Therefore, the passage of the rope in a plurality of openings increases the braking power of the device.
  • the body has three openings for passage of the loop of the main rope.
  • the body is elongated and flat, the passage openings of the loop of the main rope being offset relative to each other along the longitudinal median axis of the body and centered on this axis.
  • the passage opening is of oblong shape, the axis defined by the opening being substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal median axis of the body.
  • the fastening means are disposed at one end of the body and centered on the longitudinal central axis thereof.
  • the second opening is located on the side of the end of the body having the fastening means.
  • the loop resulting from the passage opening is passed in the second opening and then again in the passage opening.
  • the loop is then wrapped around the area of the body located between the passage opening and the second opening, so as to increase by friction the braking power.
  • Figures 1 and 2 represent a sailboat equipped with the braking device according to the invention, respectively according to a first and a second embodiment
  • Figure 3 to 5 represent the successive stages of a first assembly of the main rope on the braking device
  • Figure 6 to 8 represent mounting variants of the main rope
  • the Figures 1 and 2 represent a sailboat comprising a mast 1 equipped with a boom 2 and a sail 3.
  • a braking device 4 also called a boom brake, is arranged under the boom 2 and fixed thereto by means of a shackle 5.
  • a main rope 6 is mounted on the braking device 4, the two ends of the main rope being brought to the cockpit by means of return pulleys 8 fixed on each edge of the sailboat to the bottom of the shrouds.
  • the tension of the rope can then be adjusted at the level of the cockpit.
  • the ends of the main rope 6 are directly attached to the lower shrouds.
  • the braking device 4 is connected to a first end of a control rope 10 on which a voltage can be set in a predefined manner.
  • the second end of the control rope is brought to the cockpit by means of return pulleys 11.
  • the tension exerted on the braking device 4 then influences the tension of the main rope 6 and, consequently, the braking power.
  • the braking device 4 comprises a body 12 made of metal material and forged in one piece.
  • the body 12 is of elongate and flat shape, the fixing shackle 5 being disposed at a first end 13 of the body 12.
  • the body comprises first 14, second 15 and third 16 oblong passage openings, offset relative to each other along the longitudinal median axis A of the body 12, respectively from the first end 13 to the second end 17 of the body 12, and centered on the axis A.
  • each of the passage openings 14, 15, 16 is disposed substantially perpendicular to the axis of the body A.
  • the body further comprises an opening 18 formed between the passage openings 14, 15, 16 and the first end 13 of the body 12, within which it projects, along the axis of the body A and in the direction of the first end 13, a finger 19 forged with the body 12.
  • the length of the finger 19 is less than the length of the opening 18 along the axis of the body A.
  • the space defined between the free end of the finger 19 and the body 12 is at least equal to the current diameter of a rope. .
  • this braking device being suitable for sailboats equipped with sails having an area of up to 40m 2 .
  • a loop 20 is formed on the main rope 6.
  • a second step shown in FIG. figure 4 is to pass the loop 20 in a passage opening. In this type of assembly, this is the first passage opening 14.
  • a third step represented in figure 5 the loop 20 issuing from the passage opening 14 is disposed around the finger 19, inside the second opening 18 located at the first end 13 of the body 12.
  • the braking device 4 can thus be positioned on the main rope 6 without the need to detach the braking device 4 or the ends of the rope 6.
  • the figure 6 describes a second type of assembly in which the loop 20 is passed through the second passage opening 15, then into the first 14, then finally around the finger 19.
  • the figure 7 describes a third type of assembly in which the loop 20 is passed successively in the third passage opening 16, in the second 15, in the first 14 and finally around the finger 19.
  • the figure 8 describes a fourth type of assembly, similar to that shown in figure 4 , in which the loop 20 is passed successively in the third passage opening 16, in the second 15, in the first 14, in the opening 18 equipped with the finger, again in the first passage opening 14 and finally around the finger 19.
  • the invention is not limited to the embodiment of this braking device, described above as an example, but it embraces all variants.
