Definitions

  • the controller configured or programmed to perform the propulsion reverse direction control with the propulsion generator returned to either the portside rotation position or the starboard rotation position by the steering mechanism when the joystick is rotated either counterclockwise or clockwise before the propulsion generator is returned to the reference position by the steering mechanism
  • the controller is preferably configured or programmed to perform the propulsion reverse direction control when the joystick is switched from a state of being rotated either clockwise or counterclockwise to a state of being rotated either counterclockwise or clockwise in a time shorter than a predetermined first length of time.
  • the steering mechanism 20 rotates the steering shaft 22 due to rotation of the motor 21 to steer the propulsion generator 10 (see FIG. 2A ).
  • the rotation of the motor 21 is decelerated by the plurality of gears 23 (at a reduction ratio of about 1/400, for example) and transmitted to the steering shaft 22.
  • the operation to tilt the lever 33b corresponds to an operation to translate the marine vessel 110 (see FIG. 1 ). That is, when the lever 33b is tilted, the magnitude of the propulsive force F (see FIG. 1 ) of the propulsion generator 10 (see FIG. 2 ) (the rotation speed of the propeller 11 (see FIG. 1 )) is adjusted according to the amount of tilting of the lever 33b, and the direction of the propulsive force F in the propulsion generator 10 (the rotational direction of the propeller 11) and the steering of the propulsion generator 10 by the steering mechanism 20 (see FIG. 2 ) (the direction of the propulsion generator 10) are adjusted according to the tilting direction of the lever 33b.
  • the second controller 42 is configured or programmed to perform a propulsion reverse direction control on the propulsion generator 10 corresponding to an electric propulsion device driven by the motor 12. Accordingly, in the electrically driven marine vessel 110, the length of time between performing an operation to reverse the turning direction of the marine vessel 110 and completing reversal of the turning direction of the marine vessel 110 is decreased. Furthermore, unlike an engine, the motor 12 does not directly emit CO2, and thus a preferable device structure is obtained from the viewpoint of SDGs.
  • the marine vessel 110 may be preferably turned clockwise or counterclockwise with the propulsion generator 10 steered in the portside direction, and the marine vessel 110 may be preferably turned counterclockwise or clockwise with the propulsion generator 10 steered in the starboard direction in preferred embodiments described above, the present teaching is not restricted to this.
  • the steering direction of the propulsion generator may alternatively be fixed to one of the portside direction and the starboard direction when the marine vessel is turned (i.e., the steering direction of the propulsion generator may alternatively be the same all the time when the marine vessel is turned).
