Definitions

  • the present invention patent has as its purpose a practical and innovative articulated mount for securing the outboard motor in water vessels, belonging to the field of articles for vessels or direction of vessels, used more precisely to secure the outboard motor in vessels in general, and to which an original constructive provision was given, with a view to improving its use and performance in relation to the other products usually found on the market.
  • the outboard motor is used to equip water vessels such as speedboats, dinghies and small boats.
  • outboard motors are lighter than center-stern motors. This type of motor is recommended for navigation in shallow regions, whether for fishing, sport or leisure activities, since its "trim" system, which allows to change the angle of the propeller shaft in relation to the boat, can be raised completely to the water outlet if necessary.
  • the name refers to the location on the rear portion of the vessels, better known as the stern.
  • Several devices are made available on the nautical equipment market for the coupling of outboard motors on vessels.
  • Patent document AU2018204072A1 entitled "LARGE OUTBOARD MOTOR FOR WATER VESSEL APPLICATION AND RELATED METHODS OF MANUFACTURING AND SIMILAR OPERATION", discloses a mounting system for connecting an outboard motor to a water vehicle.
  • the mounting system comprises: a rotatable mount frame having a steering tube frame and providing a steering axis about which the rotatable mount frame is capable of rotating; a pair of clip mount frames extending from the rotatable mount frame; a first steering yoke frame connected to the rotatable mount frame via the steering tube frame, and including a first cross-piece mounting frame that includes a pair of first steering yoke frame portions that can be used to couple the rotatable mount frame to the outboard motor, the pair of first steering yoke frame portions separated by a first distance; and a second steering yoke frame connected to the rotatable mount frame via the steering tube frame, and including a second steering yoke frame mounting portion that can be used to couple the rotatable mount frame to the outboard motor, the second steering yoke frame mounting part positioned between the pair of the first steering yoke frame portions.
  • the invention also relates to a compound outboard motor: an internal combustion motor; first and second transmission components, in cases where an outboard surface of the internal combustion motor is attached to the first transmission component, in which the first transmission component is attached to the second transmission component, and in which the second transmission component is further connected, at least indirectly by an additional member, to the internal combustion motor; and a mounting system according to the invention coupled at least indirectly to one or more of the internal combustion motor, first transmission component and second transmission component.
  • Patent document US8011982B1 entitled “OUTBOARD MOTOR MOUNT SYSTEM”, discloses a restricted member which is attached to a lower part of the outboard motor and a restrictive member which is attached to a mount frame which in turn is attached to a crossbar of a water vessel.
  • the restrained member is prevented from moving in a starboard or port direction by a magnitude greater than a preset magnitude that is defined by a gap between restrictive and restrained surfaces that move in contact with each other when forces on the outboard cause a lower portion of the outboard to move by a magnitude greater than a preset limit in the port or starboard directions.
  • the pre-established gaps between restrictive and restrained surfaces are sized to allow nominal vibration at low operating speeds of the outboard motor, restricting excessive lateral movement during high-speed operation.
  • Patent document US6883454B2 entitled “VESSEL SCROLLING SYSTEM”, discloses an auxiliary vessel scrolling support system, removable to a stern platform of a boat, consisting of a first set of tilted rollers attached to the platform and a second set of removable mount rollers attachable to the platform.
  • Patent document US7644674B1 entitled “WATER VESSEL STABILIZATION SYSTEM”, discloses a system of stabilizers mounted with hinges on plates that allow pivoting or rotating movement of each stabilizer between the storage and operating positions. Locking members protect the stabilizers from substantial movement when in the operating position.
  • Patent document US9555865B2 entitled “BOAT COLLAR SECURING SYSTEM AND METHOD”, discloses a vessel with stern stabilizing members in a hull with an arch wrap and port and starboard side sheets with one or more longitudinal channels.
  • the port and starboard stabilizer members comprise floating members in a bay with one or more longitudinal guardians that are configured to be received in the side sheet channels.
  • the tension members extend through the guardians, and are attachable near the stern end of the vessel, and releasably engage the tension mechanisms in the bow wrap, to secure the stabilizer members to the side sheet.
  • Deck access plates through the side walls provide access to tension mechanisms, which may be, for example, crank or electric winch mechanism.
  • Patent document CA2630228A1 entitled “MOUNT FOR AUXILIARY MOTOR OF OUTBOARD MOTOR” discloses an auxiliary mount for outboard motor for securing an auxiliary motor to an existing outboard motor.
  • the mount comprises an auxiliary plate of motor mounting with divergently extended arms for receiving the body of the outboard motor and secured thereto.
  • a third arm extends from the mounting plate downward and is also secured to the outboard motor.
  • Patent document US8939103B2 entitled “DEPLOYABLE ASSEMBLY,” discloses a deployable assembly for a suspended device, which can lead to stabilization of a vessel, such as kayaks and canoes, that allows an operator to stay or move on the vessel without it swinging or overflying.
  • the deployable assembly with an example pontoon connected to a foldable and rotated arm enables pivotal and rotated movement of each pontoon between the storage and deployed positions.
  • a locking housing secures the substantial movement pontoon when in or between operational and stored positions.
  • the deployable assembly is mounted on a vessel that allows extending a stabilizer pontoon individually on each side of the vessel from a rest position to an operational position, by independent means.
  • outboard motor models lie in the fact that they do not allow access to and egress from the rear portion of the vessel, since at least one motor is coupled at that location.
  • the mounts for motors found on the market so far only allow the angular movement of the outboard motor in order to change the angle of the propeller axis in relation to the vessel, in addition to the steering.
  • the support points are their hands and feet, and the hands give the necessary support to maintain the diver's balance on the ladder, allowing them to remain standing, even with the swing of the vessel. If there is no support, climbing the stairs with the equipment on the back becomes more complicated and increases the chances of an accident happening.
  • the present patent was designed in order to obtain a device with as few parts as possible, conveniently configured and arranged to allow the articulated mount for securing an outboard motor in water vessels to perform its functions with unparalleled efficiency and versatility, without the aforementioned drawbacks.
  • the present patent application presents a practical and innovative articulated mount for securing the outboard motor in water vessels with all aesthetic and functional qualities, designed and developed according to the most modern techniques, thus enabling its use in the most varied models of vessels that use outboard motors, regardless of their power.
  • the mount consists of two rigid frames, formed by tubes and metal sheets, in order to support the weight and thrust of the motors when used, which are installed in the rear portion of the vessel, so that in their working position the frames are locked transverse to the rear end. And in the open position the frames are orthogonal to the boat, so that the stern be free to embark and disembark people or objects.
  • the present frame of the proposed invention may undergo changes to support one or more motors, in accordance with the designer and type of boat on which the support will be applied.
  • the rigid structures have inflatable floatation buoys that can be installed in any part of the frame for stabilization of the vessel according to the convenience of the user, when they are in the open position.
  • the "ARTICULATED MOUNT FOR SECURING AN OUTBOARD MOTOR IN WATER VESSELS”, purpose of the present patent, comprises a mount with pivoting movement for securing outboard motors in vessels.
  • the articulated mount (1) consists of two rigid structures (2) of high strength consisting of metal tubes reinforced with metal sheets, which are secured to the rear portions of the sides of the vessel (3) or at the rear corners, by means of bearings (4), making it possible to install inflatable buoys (5) in any portion of said frame.
  • the rigid structures (2) still present appropriate conformations for the couplings of the respective outboard motors (6).
  • Each rigid frame (2) is installed on the rear portion of the vessel (3), so that in its working position it is locked in transverse to the stern. And in the open position each rigid frame (2) is orthogonal to the vessel (3), so that the stern is free for loading and unloading and the buoys (5) provide greater stability on the vessel, in this position.
  • Said bearings (4) allow the rigid structures (2) to move rotationally in asymmetry, from the center to the sides, making an arc of the order of 180°.
  • Locks are envisaged to keep the mount (1) stable both in its working position and in the open position. Said locks are sized according to the power, size and weight of the vessel (3).
  • the described mount (1) provides for the use of two outboard motors, however optionally for the use of only one motor (6), the mount (1A) may consist of two frames of different sizes, since the frame (2A), to which the outboard motor (6) is secured, has a larger dimension than the frame (2B), so that said motor (6) is positioned in the transverse central portion of the vessel (3).
