Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a steering device for a boat comprising a lever, which has an upper handle part and a lower rod part, which rod part has a lower end for mounting to the boat.
  • the handle part has at least one control button intended to generate control signals for one or more components of the boat.
  • the invention relates to the so called “side mount” levers, that is levers mounted on a side partition wall belonging to a steering station of a boat.
  • such levers in addition to allow the boat speed to be set, integrate further controls intended to regulate the different components of the boat, for example can comprise buttons for regulating the boat trim.
  • buttons are particularly important aspect to allow the user to easily operate the buttons without moving too much the hand on the lever.
  • levers known in the prior art have the handle part as much ergonomic as possible such to allow the user hand to comfortably hold it.
  • levers are on the right side with respect to the steering wheel and therefore they are operated by the right hand of the user.
  • buttons with the little finger is quite uncomfortable, since the several joints of the user hand allow not only to exert a higher strength by using the thumb than by using the little finger, but also to obtain greater movement sensitivity.
  • the present invention achieves the above objects by providing a steering device for a boat, according to the preamble of claim 1 and further having the combination of characteristics of the characterizing part of claim 1.
  • the lever is not more as a single piece, but as two pieces detached from each other, the handle part and the rod part, independent from each other.
  • the lower rod part can be oriented such to allow the control button to be easily positioned for the user, that is to be positioned at the thumb of the user, particularly the thumb of the right hand.
  • the lower rod part is rotatable preferably about an axis vertical and perpendicular with respect to the horizontal plane of the boat.
  • said locking means comprise an elastic element.
  • the elastic element will be configured such to push the upper handle part towards the lower rod part.
  • the locking means comprise a locking element engaging into suitable seats in the upper handle part and on the lower rod part, such to avoid, in the engaged condition, the relative movement between the upper handle part and the lower rod part.
  • Such locking element can be made in any manner known in the prior art, for example it can be composed of a pin penetrating into the surfaces of the upper handle part and of the lower rod part, as well as a mechanical stop or abutment element that can be activated once the lower rod part is positioned in the desired manner.
  • the upper handle part has a handle head providing the control button placed on the side part of the head at the thumb of the user hand.
  • the rotation of the lower rod part and the fact of maintaining the upper handle part in the fixed position allow the lever to be mounted both on the right and on the left with respect to a partition wall, such that the button is always towards the thumb of the right hand of the user.
  • the handle head provided in the upper handle part can have the button placed on the front part of the head towards the side of the thumb of the user hand.
  • Such embodiment allows the button to be positioned not more on the side part of the handle head, but on the front part, such to guarantee the use of the button by the thumb of the right hand.
  • the lever is composed of a tubular body having an inner channel intended to house electric cables for transmitting signals generated by the at least one button.
  • the electric cables are provided with a length greater than the length of the tubular body such to allow the lower rod part to rotate.
  • the upper handle part and the lower rod part are composed of a tubular body.
  • the upper handle part has a first end connection part cooperating with a corresponding second end connection part provided on the lower rod part.
  • connection is preferably obtained by overlapping the inner walls of the first end part with the outer walls of the second end part or vice versa.
  • Such embodiment therefore has not to be considered as limitative of the inventive concept of the present invention that is to provide a steering device for a boat that can be easily adapted to different steering configurations of the boat itself.
  • figure 1 is a diagram of a boat steering station, where there is provided a steering member of the steering wheel type 1 and a steering lever 2.
  • the steering lever 2 has an upper handle part 21 and a lower rod part 22, which rod part 22 has a lower end 221 for the mounting to the boat.
  • the handle part 21 has at least one control button 211 intended to generate control signals for one or more components of the boat.
  • the device of the present invention provides the lower rod part 22 to be mounted so as to rotate with respect to the upper handle part 22.
  • the upper handle part 21 remains fixed such that the control button 211 remains fixed in position.
  • the lever 2 thus is composed of two independent parts, the upper handle part 21 and the lower rod part 22.
  • such joining area comprises means locking the relative movement between the upper handle part 2 and the lower rod part 22.
  • FIGS 3a and 3b show two details of such joining area 23 and of the locking means.
  • the locking means comprise an elastic element 231.
  • the elastic element 231 urges the upper handle part 21 towards the lower rod part 22.
  • joining area 23 can be made in any manner known in the prior art.
  • the upper handle part 21 and the lower rod part 22 are composed of a tubular body.
  • the upper handle part 21 can have a first end connection part cooperating with a corresponding second end connection part provided on the lower rod part 21.
  • the joining area 23 can provide locking means that comprise a locking element engaging into suitable seats provided on the upper handle part 21 and on the lower rod part 22, such to avoid, in the engaged condition, the relative movement between the upper handle part 21 and the lower rod part 22.
  • Such locking means can be composed of a pin penetrating the walls of the handle part 21 and of the rod part 22.
  • stop elements that limit the rotation of the lower rod part 22 to a maximum extent of 180°.
  • the upper handle part 21 has a handle head 212 providing the control button 211 placed on the side part of the head 212 at the thumb of the user hand.
  • the upper handle part 21 has a handle head 212 providing the control button 211 placed on the front part of the head 212 towards the side of the thumb of the user hand.
  • the button 211 is operated by the thumb of the right hand of the user.
  • the shape of the head 212 is made as symmetrical with respect at least to a plane parallel to the partition wall 3.
  • the lever 2 is composed of a tubular body having an inner channel intended to house electric cables for transmitting signals generated by said at least one button 211.
  • the electric cables are provided with a length greater than the length of the tubular body such to allow the lower rod part 22 to rotate.
  • the length of the cables has to be such to allow the lower rod part 22 to rotate by at least 180°.
