Description

Plateforme navale munie d'au moins une coque équipée de propulseurs orientables Naval platform equipped with at least one hull equipped with steerable thrusters
La présente invention concerne une plateforme navale. The present invention relates to a naval platform.
Plus particulièrement, l'invention se rapporte à une plateforme navale qui comporte au moins une coque équipée de propulseurs orientables répartis sur et plus particulièrement sous celle-ci et associés à des moyens de commande de l'orientation et de l'activation de ces propulseurs.  More particularly, the invention relates to a naval platform which comprises at least one hull equipped with steerable thrusters distributed over and more particularly under it and associated with means for controlling the orientation and the activation of these thrusters. .
D'une façon générale, ces moyens de commande des propulseurs sont activés par exemple par un opérateur de manœuvre, pour contrôler non seulement la direction de déplacement mais également la vitesse de déplacement de cette plateforme dans une direction donnée.  In general, these thruster control means are activated for example by a maneuvering operator, to control not only the direction of movement but also the speed of movement of this platform in a given direction.
On sait que des plateformes de ce type sont également équipées de fonctions particulières permettant une stabilisation en position ou encore une action sur l'environnement de la plateforme pour repousser des objets tels que par exemple des blocs de glace ou autres et ainsi éviter que ceux-ci ne viennent heurter voire endommager la coque.  It is known that platforms of this type are also equipped with particular functions allowing a stabilization in position or an action on the environment of the platform to repel objects such as for example blocks of ice or other and thus avoid that these This does not hurt or even damage the hull.
Des plateformes équipées de moyens de cette nature sont par exemple décrits dans les documents US 2010/0126401 et EP 2 167 374.  Platforms equipped with means of this nature are described, for example, in documents US 2010/0126401 and EP 2 167 374.
Cependant ces plateformes sont extrêmement difficiles à piloter et les moyens de commande demandent un temps de réaction assez long qui peut se traduire par la mise en danger de la plateforme.  However, these platforms are extremely difficult to control and the control means require a long reaction time which can result in the endangerment of the platform.
Le but de l'invention est donc de résoudre ces problèmes en proposant des moyens extrêmement simples et rapides de contrôle du fonctionnement de ces plateformes.  The object of the invention is therefore to solve these problems by providing extremely simple and fast means of controlling the operation of these platforms.
A cet effet l'invention a pour objet une plateforme navale du type comportant au moins une coque équipée de propulseurs orientables répartis sur celle-ci et des moyens de commande de l'orientation et de l'activation de ceux-ci, caractérisée en ce que les moyens de commande comprennent des moyens d'illustration d'au moins une partie de la surface de l'eau autour de la plateforme navale à proximité de celle-ci, associés à des moyens de pilotage du fonctionnement d'au moins une partie des propulseurs orientables pour engendrer et diriger un flux d'eau vers cette partie de la surface.  For this purpose the invention relates to a naval platform of the type comprising at least one hull equipped with steerable thrusters distributed thereon and means for controlling the orientation and the activation thereof, characterized in that the control means comprise means for illustrating at least a portion of the surface of the water around the naval platform close to it, associated with means for controlling the operation of at least a part steerable thrusters to generate and direct a flow of water to this part of the surface.
Suivant d'autres caractéristiques de la plateforme selon l'invention, prises seules ou en combinaison :  According to other features of the platform according to the invention, taken alone or in combination:

L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description qui va suivre, donnée uniquement à titre d'exemple et faite en se référant au dessin annexé qui représente un schéma synoptique en vue de dessus illustrant la structure et le fonctionnement d'une plateforme navale équipée de moyens de commande, selon l'invention.  The invention will be better understood on reading the description which follows, given solely by way of example and with reference to the appended drawing which represents a block diagram in plan view illustrating the structure and operation of a platform naval equipped with control means, according to the invention.
On a en effet illustré sur cette figure une plateforme navale telle qu'un navire ou un bateau quelconque, qui est désignée par la référence générale 1 .  This figure has in fact illustrated a naval platform such as a ship or any boat, which is designated by the general reference 1.
Celle-ci est représentée de façon schématique en vue de dessus et comporte au moins une coque désignée par la référence générale 2 équipée de propulseurs orientables répartis sur et plus particulièrement sous celle-ci.  This is schematically represented in top view and comprises at least one shell designated by the general reference 2 equipped with steerable thrusters distributed on and more particularly under it.
Ainsi par exemple sur cette figure quatre propulseurs orientables désignés par les références 3, 4, 5 et 6 sont représentés.  Thus for example in this figure four orientable thrusters designated by references 3, 4, 5 and 6 are shown.
La plateforme est également équipée de moyens de commande de l'orientation et de l'activation de ces propulseurs orientables, ces moyens étant désignés par la référence générale 7 sur cette figure.  The platform is also equipped with means for controlling the orientation and the activation of these steerable thrusters, these means being designated by the general reference 7 in this figure.
En fait et de façon classique, ces moyens de commande 7 comprennent une unité de pilotage désignée par la référence générale 8, associée à des moyens formant interface homme/machine mis à la disposition par exemple d'un opérateur de manœuvre, désignés par la référence générale 9, et comprenant par exemple un levier de commande d'orientation désigné par la référence générale 10 et une manette de commande de puissance désignée par la référence générale 1 1 . In fact and conventionally, these control means 7 comprise a control unit designated by the general reference 8, associated with means forming a man / machine interface made available for example by a switching operator, designated by the reference 9, and comprising for example a control lever orientation designated by the general reference 10 and a power control handle designated by the general reference 1 1.
Ceci permet alors par exemple à cet opérateur de manœuvre de piloter les évolutions de la plateforme notamment en direction et en vitesse.  This then allows, for example, this operator to maneuver the changes in the platform including direction and speed.
Selon l'invention, ces moyens de commande comprennent également des moyens d'illustration d'au moins une partie de la surface de l'eau autour de la plateforme navale à proximité de celle-ci, associés à des moyens de pilotage du fonctionnement d'au moins une partie des propulseurs orientables de cette plateforme, pour engendrer et diriger un flux d'eau vers cette partie de la surface.  According to the invention, these control means also comprise means for illustrating at least part of the surface of the water around the naval platform in the vicinity thereof, associated with means for controlling the operation of the at least a portion of the steerable thrusters of this platform, to generate and direct a flow of water to this part of the surface.
En fait ces moyens de commande comprennent par exemple un écran tactile désigné par la référence générale 12 sur cette figure, sur lequel est représenté un pictogramme 13 illustrant la plateforme en vue de dessus schématique et autour de celui- ci ou de parties de celui-ci, des zones formant pavé tactile de commande des propulseurs, ces zones étant désignées respectivement par les références 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 et 21 sur la figure.  In fact these control means comprise for example a touch screen designated by the general reference 12 in this figure, on which is shown a pictogram 13 illustrating the platform in schematic plan view and around it or parts thereof , areas forming a control pad thrusters, these areas being designated respectively by the references 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 and 21 in the figure.
Comme cela est illustré, des zones formant pavé tactile de commande des propulseurs sont prévues tout autour de la plateforme et il va de soi bien entendu qu'en variante de réalisation, de telles zones peuvent être prévues uniquement autour par exemple de la poupe et de la proue de la plateforme.  As illustrated, zones forming touchpad control thrusters are provided around the platform and it goes without saying that in an alternative embodiment, such areas can be provided only around for example the stern and the bow of the platform.
Ces moyens d'illustration représentent alors des secteurs de la surface de l'eau autour de la plateforme navale à proximité de celle-ci, et dont chacun est associé à des ordres de commande des moyens de pilotage du fonctionnement d'au moins une partie des propulseurs orientables de la plateforme, pour diriger un flux d'eau vers ce secteur de l'environnement.  These illustrative means then represent sectors of the water surface around the naval platform in the vicinity thereof, each of which is associated with control commands of the control means of the operation of at least a part steerable propellers of the platform, to direct a flow of water towards this sector of the environment.
En fait ces ordres de commande entrés par l'opérateur de manœuvre sont alors transmis à l'unité de pilotage 8, celle-ci étant associée à des moyens de stockage de données, désignés par la référence générale 22 sur cette figure, dans lesquels sont enregistrés ou calculés en temps réel en fonction des conditions opérationnelles, des ordres de commande en orientation et en puissance de chaque propulseur pour chaque secteur ainsi défini.  In fact these control commands entered by the operating operator are then transmitted to the control unit 8, which is associated with data storage means, designated by the general reference 22 in this figure, in which are recorded or calculated in real time according to the operational conditions, control orders in orientation and power of each thruster for each sector thus defined.
Ceci permet alors en pilotant au moins une partie des propulseurs orientables de la plateforme, d'engendrer et de diriger un flux d'eau vers la partie sélectionnée de la surface autour de la plateforme et telle que désignée par l'opérateur en appuyant sur l'un des secteurs ou pavés tactiles illustrés, pour repousser par exemple un objet tel qu'un bloc de glace susceptible d'entrer en collision avec la plateforme. Bien entendu les moyens de pilotage peuvent également être adaptés pour piloter le fonctionnement d'au moins une autre partie des propulseurs afin de générer une poussée d'équilibrage de la poussée engendrée par le flux d'eau afin de conserver révolution ou le maintien en position de la plateforme. This then makes it possible, by controlling at least a portion of the steerable thrusters of the platform, to generate and direct a stream of water towards the selected part of the surface around the platform and as designated by the operator by pressing the one of the areas or touch pads illustrated, for example to repel an object such as a block of ice likely to collide with the platform. Naturally, the control means may also be adapted to control the operation of at least one other part of the thrusters in order to generate a pressure thrusting thrust generated by the flow of water in order to maintain revolution or hold in position. of the platform.
Ceci est par exemple illustré sur cette figure où l'on voit que si l'opérateur par exemple active le pavé tactile 14, les propulseurs 3 et 4 sont pilotés pour engendrer et diriger un flux d'eau vers l'avant de la plateforme.  This is for example illustrated in this figure where we see that if the operator for example activates the touchpad 14, the thrusters 3 and 4 are controlled to generate and direct a stream of water to the front of the platform.
Dans le même temps, les propulseurs 5 et 6 peuvent être pilotés pour engendrer une poussée vers l'arrière de la plateforme d'équilibrage de la poussée engendrée par le flux d'eau afin par exemple de maintenir la plateforme en position.  At the same time, the thrusters 5 and 6 can be controlled to generate a thrust to the rear of the platform for balancing the thrust generated by the water flow in order, for example, to maintain the platform in position.
Il va de soi bien entendu que de très nombreux autres modes de réalisation peuvent être envisagés, notamment au niveau de l'écran tactile.  It goes without saying of course that many other embodiments can be envisaged, particularly at the touch screen.
On notera également que les propulseurs orientables peuvent par exemple être formés par des pods électriques mais que d'autres organes de propulsion peuvent être envisagés.  It will also be noted that the steerable thrusters may for example be formed by electric pods but that other propulsion units may be envisaged.
On conçoit alors qu'une telle structure présente un certain nombre d'avantages notamment au niveau de la simplicité de pilotage et de la facilité et de la rapidité de manœuvre qui en résulte pour la plateforme.  It is conceivable that such a structure has a number of advantages including the simplicity of piloting and the ease and speed of maneuver that results for the platform.
Ceci en augment d'autant la sécurité.  This increases the security.
