Definitions

  • the invention relates to a winch crank according to the preambles of independent claim 1.
  • a winch crank is from the WO 2009/080042 A2 known.
  • Sailboats or sailing yachts are equipped with winches, which make it possible to trim the sails and to safely absorb and control the forces in the pods and traps. This is generally done by turning the winches with the help of a winch handle.
  • the winches are known to have a base anchored to the boat with an axle (journals) on which a so-called winch drum is rotatably mounted. Between the winch base and the winch drum is usually a planetary gear for power reduction and a freewheel hub, which blocks the winch in the pulling direction of the sheet or the case.
  • winches are a key feature of any sailboat and must function safely and operate in any situation. For operation, in turn, the above winch crank is necessary, without which the winch itself is not operable.
  • a sailboat becomes almost unable to maneuver, which can lead to corresponding strong, unfavorable wind conditions up to a capsize or sinking or grounding.
  • a loss of the winch handle or a failure to locate the winch handle fatal consequences.
  • the raised from the ship's upper deck winches pose a risk of tripping and injury to the boat crew, which is especially in the dark at night driving is not to be underestimated.
  • the winch handle is usually changed between the starboard side and port-side winch and also stored to avoid injury and stumbling when not in use in the cockpit. Especially in the dark, it may be due to carelessness that the winch handle goes overboard. This entails the above-described consequences of the inoperability of the winches.
  • Object of the present invention is therefore to propose a new winch and a new winch handle, which allow safe work on the winches with reduced or poor visibility.
  • a winch crank with a crank arm and an actuating handle, wherein the actuating handle is rotatably supported by a shaft on the crank arm, and wherein the shaft is formed by a hollow shaft, and wherein in the cavity of the hollow shaft, a light source is attached ,
  • a bearing with a bearing shaft is used in winch cranks for supporting the operating handle on the crank arm.
  • This bearing shaft has always been designed as a massive solid shaft.
  • a hollow shaft is used instead to fasten in the cavity of the hollow shaft, a light source.
  • the light source is located within the handle in the cavity of the hollow shaft.
  • the light source can be permanently installed within the hollow shaft, but can also be designed removable. As access to a permanently installed light source within the hollow shaft, for example, access through the cover of the operating handle is suitable.
  • the energy can be supplied via batteries or via supply lines, which are routed via contact connections to the winch in the boat interior to the on-board power supply. This also allows charging the batteries of the bulb.
  • the light source is thus releasably connected to the winch crank. This ultimately lights up the winch handle and is better visible in poor visibility.
  • the winch handle is mounted on the winch, for example to prevent injuries and tripping.
  • the winch handle for the boat crew is also clearly visible. This can be a bumping and thus go overboard the winch handle be prevented.
  • the winch handle can also be used as a lamp on the way to the winch on the foredeck.
  • the luminous means is aligned such that the light is emitted in the direction opposite to the actuating arm relative to the crank arm.
  • the winch crank downwards which on the one hand prevents dazzling of the boat crew and on the other hand offers the advantage that the light source in the winch handle is usable as a reading lamp, for people sitting on a bench in the cockpit are located.
  • a deflection can be provided at the light outlet of the winch crank.
  • This deflection device can be fastened, for example, to the light source or to the hollow shaft.
  • the deflection can be formed for example by a spherical reflector. This allows alignment of the light cone.
  • the lighting means is fixed by means of a clamping element in the cavity of the hollow shaft. This can prevent falling out of the bulb from the hollow shaft of the winch crank.
  • the luminous means comprises at least one light-emitting diode.
  • Light-emitting diodes are particularly energy-efficient and can be flexibly arranged due to their small size.
  • the lighting means is formed by a flashlight.
  • a flashlight This allows a multi-functionality of the light source used.
  • the flashlight which is carried in many cases anyway, can be dismantled, for example, for a shore leave in the harbor.
  • the bulb is easy to disassemble by using a flashlight for maintenance purposes.
  • FIG. 1 shows an unclaimed winch (1) in exploded view.
  • the winch drum (2) has a lower winch drum section (3) and an upper winch drum section (4).
  • On the winch drum (2) a winch head (5) is arranged, which allows the approach of a winch crank.
  • a fixing device (14) can be arranged between the winch drum (2) and the winch head (5), depending on the winch type, and has the task of fixing the case to be operated.
  • the lighting means (6) is designed here as a combination of active lighting means (7) and passive lighting means (8).
  • the wound EL foil produces a uniformly distributed light. It is possible to use a monochrome luminescent cord or to use a color-switchable luminescent cord.
  • first shims (10) are placed on the sailboat (9) to space an annular plate (11).
  • the spacing of the annular plate (11) through the washers (10) has the particular advantage that water can drain through the distance.
  • the active light source (7) here the light string, through the recess in the sailboat (9), through the washer (10) and through a recess in the annular plate (11), connected to the boat inside to the electrical supply to be able to.
  • the light string then comes to rest on the annular plate.
  • the power can also be supplied via a battery.
  • the passive illuminant (8) here the colored, transparent plastic ring with a to the active light source (7) fitting groove is placed.
  • the light string comes to rest in the groove in the colored, transparent plastic ring.
  • the colored, transparent plastic ring is irradiated from the inside by the light string. This results in an indirect, non-dazzling illumination.
  • flanged bushes (12) through the light bulb (6) are inserted through. Then the winch base (13) is arranged and bolted through the cover laminate of the sailboat (9) by flanged bushes (12) and lighting means (6).
  • the plastic ring is frictionally mounted between the annular plate (11) and the winch base (13). In other words, a force input via the winch base on the flanged bushes on the annular plate (11) is passed.
  • the active illuminant (7) can also be inserted into the groove of the passive luminous means (8), then the annular plate (11) can be brought together as a cover with the passive illuminant (8) so that the entire unit can be handled as a preassembled component becomes.
  • Annular plate (11) and passive lamp (8) then form a quasi housing around the active lamp (7) and are waterproof designed by gluing.
  • one of the fastening screws is hollow inside, whereby a power supply without additional drilling in the deck can be realized.
  • winch base 13 and bulb 6 can also be optional depending on winch type still a winch base 15 order.
  • FIG. 2 shows the winch base (13) mounted on the sailboat (9). Evident is the guided by an inside hollow screw light string as an active light source (7), as well as the kraftentlastete, colored, transparent plastic ring as a passive light source (8).
  • FIG. 3 shows the facts FIG. 2 in cross section.
  • FIG. 4 shows the on the not visible here winch base (13) rotatably mounted winch drum (2).
  • the passive light source (8) is arranged between the boat (9) and the winch base (13).
  • FIG. 5 shows the facts FIG. 4 in cross section.
  • FIGS. 6a to 6d show four possible unclaimed winch types with different arrangement options of the bulb 6.
  • the winches shown can be driven manually and / or with third-party drive.
  • FIG. 6a shows a standard winch without winch base.
  • the light source is here between the boat 9 and winch drum 2 and between winch drum 2 and 5 winch head.
  • FIG. 6b shows a standard winch with winch base 15.
  • the light source is here between the boat 9 and winch base 15, between the winch base 15 and winch drum 2 and between the winch drum 2 and 5 winch head arranged.
  • FIG. 6c shows a self-locking winch without winch base.
  • This winch moreover has a fixing device 14.
  • the light source is here between the boat 9 and winch drum 2, between winch drum 2 and fixing device 14 (in the figure not visible) and between fixing device 14 and 5 winch head.
