  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a cable stabilizer and a handling installation of the aforementioned type whose designs make it possible to dispense with visual data provided by the operator.
  • the stabilizer allows a coarse positioning of the cable passage in line with the load and a fine adjustment of the positioning of this cable passage to limit any action of the cable on the load in the direction of a rocking of the cable. load.
  • the drive means for moving the cable passage comprise at least two linear actuators of the jack type arranged around the cable passage between the base and the cable passage, said actuators each extending in a plane substantially perpendicular to the axis of said cable passage and being each coupled to the cable passage on the one hand, and at the base, on the other hand by a pivot connection axis parallel to the axis of the cable passage.
  • This design allows a simple, fast, accurate and reliable positioning of the cable passage.
  • the actuators are coplanar and form between them an angle close to 90 °.
  • the cable passage affects the shape of a sleeve.
  • the head is equipped with connecting means able to cooperate with complementary connecting means carried by the support structure for a pivot connection between the base and the supporting structure about an axis substantially orthogonal to the axis of the cable passage.
  • connecting means allow a maintenance along a vertical axis of the cable passage.
  • the base of the head comprises an annular piece surrounding the cable passage and a hollow flange closing one of said face faces of the top of the annular piece, the recess of the flange being in disposition substantially aligned with said passage of cable, said flange bearing on its face facing the cable passage, the central, called inertial, and the means for detecting the position of the load to be handled.
  • the means for detecting the position of the load to be handled comprise at least one optical signal transmitter / receiver capable of cooperating with an optical signal reflector positioned on the load to be handled by means of said operating cable. Thanks to this position detection by optical signals, the risks of failures or errors are reduced.
  • the invention also relates to a cargo handling facility, such as a boat, capable of being launched or hoisted out of water with the aid of a maneuvering cable, said installation capable of to be embedded in a floating craft or structure comprising at least one stabilizer and a structure carrying at least part of the stabilizer, said support structure comprising a winch around which the cable for maneuvering the load to be handled is suitable to be wound up and moving means of moving the portion of the stabilizer carried by said structure for the positioning of said portion of the stabilizer above the load adapted to be handled using said operating cable, characterized in that the stabilizer is of the type cited above in that the part of the stabilizer range by the carrying structure is formed at least by the head of the stabilizer.
  • the support structure is a davit comprising at least one arm at the free end of which is pivotally mounted the head of the stabilizer and means, such as a cylinder, for driving the arm between at least one working position corresponding to the position of launching or hoisting the load and a position for storing the load on the apparatus or the floating structure, these drive means in displacement of the arm, able to form the drive means in displacement of the head of the stabilizer for the positioning of said head in line with the load suitable for being handled at using said operating cable, being equipped with operating control means, data of the inertial unit and means for detecting the position of the load to handle the stabilizer.
  • means such as a cylinder
  • the support structure comprises means for holding the stabilizer head in a substantially horizontal plane in which the axis of the stabilizer cable passage extends vertically, these holding means being preferably formed by a jack with integrated position sensor disposed between the arm of the supporting structure and the stabilizer head, said cylinder being equipped with control means according to the data of its position sensor, the data of the inertial unit, and the means of detecting the the position of the load to be handled by the stabilizer.
  • the object of the invention is a stabilizer 1 for a cable 23 for actuating a load that can be put into the water or hoisted out of water by means of the cable 23, and an installation, adapted to be embedded on a machine 5 or a floating structure (e), and comprising such a stabilizer 1 and a structure 4 carrying at least a portion of the stabilizer 1.
  • This inertial unit 7 may be specific to the installation or may be that of the ship on which the installation is embedded.
  • the stabilizer further comprises means 22 for driving the drive means 6 for moving the cable passage 10 relative to the base 8 at least according to the data provided by the inertial unit 7.
  • the cable passage 10 has the shape of a sleeve.
  • the base 8 of the head 3 comprises an annular part 14 surrounding the 10 passage of cable and a hollow flange 15 closing one of said faces of the top face of the annular part 14.
  • the recess 16 of the flange 15 is disposed substantially aligned with said passage 10 of cable.
  • the flange 15 carries, on its side facing the cable passage 10, the central 7, called inertial, and the means 9 for detecting the position of the load 2 to be handled.
  • the means 9 for detecting the position of the load 2 to be handled comprise at least one optical signal transmitter / receiver 91 capable of cooperating with a reflector 92 of optical signals positioned on the load 2 to be handled using said operating cable. .
  • This reflector 92 of optical signals is disposed on the boat in the immediate vicinity of the point of attachment of the cable on said boat.
  • the drive means 11 for moving the cable passage 10 comprise at least two linear actuators 11 of the jack type arranged around the cable passage 10 between the base 8 and the cable passage 10.
  • the actuators 11 are coplanar and form between them an angle close to 90 °.
  • the head is pivotally connected to its base at the free end of the davit handling arm 18.
  • the base is equipped with two wings interconnected by an axis passing through the free end of the arm and a through hole of each wing to form a pivot axis between arm 18 of the davit and the base of the head of the stabilizer.
  • a jack 20 is disposed between the arm 18 and the base 8 to allow, during its actuation, the pivoting drive of the base 8 of the stabilizer head about its axis pivot connection to the arm 18 in view of a permanent maintenance in the vertical state of the cable passage.
  • the means 22 for controlling the actuators 11 of the stabilizer and the jacks 19, 20 of the davit are formed by an electronic and computer processing and calculation unit.
  • Said unit may be in the form of an electronic circuit provided with a microcontroller or a microprocessor associated with a data storage memory.
  • given means are configured to perform a given operation, it means that the electronic and computer system that forms said means comprises computer instructions for performing said operation.
  • These control means are configured to acquire, by means of the inertial unit 7 and the means 9 for detecting the position of the load, data, to compare these data with stored values and to drive all the actuators into position. function of the result of the comparison.
  • the hoisting of a boat out of water is as follows. Initially, the boat to be hoisted on the ship is hooked with a 21 to the vessel to hold the boat substantially parallel to said vessel. The arm 18 of the davit is deployed and the head of the stabilizer positioned vertically from the hooking point of the cable on the boat using the optical signals exchanged between the head of the stabilizer and boat through the means 9 of detection of the boat position. The cable can then be hooked to the boat at a predetermined attachment point. The positioning of the cable passage is refined using the actuators 11 during hoisting of the boat according to data provided by the inertial unit on board the stabilizer head and by the means 9 of position detection to ensure a hoist as vertical as possible. This hoisting is effected by actuation of the winch and the jacks 19, 20 which hold the arm 18 and the head 3 in equally optimal positions.
  • the arm 18 is actuated by means of the jack 19 which retracts to allow passage of the arm from the working position to the storage position.
  • the procedure is the reverse.
