Object of the invention

La presente invención se refiere a una barrera de protección frente a medusas, de las destinadas a ser implantadas en las zonas de baño de playas y similares.The present invention relates to a barrier protection against jellyfish, of those intended to be implanted in beach bathing areas and the like.

El objeto de la invención es proporcionar una barrera que evite la entrada de medusas en las zonas de baño habilitadas al efecto, barrera que, merced a su especial estructuración es fácilmente implantable y extraíble respecto al fondo del mar cuando ésta no es necesaria.The object of the invention is to provide a barrier that prevents jellyfish from entering bathing areas enabled for that purpose, barrier that, thanks to its special structuring is easily implantable and removable with respect to sea floor when it is not necessary.

Background of the invention

Son conocidas barreras de protección frente a medusas a base de una pluralidad de redes, que se asocian a líneas de boyas de señalización marina, que si bien cumplen satisfactoriamente con la función para la que han sido previstas, su implantación y su extracción resultan sumamente complejas al estar las citadas boyas asociadas a un lastre de considerable peso, al que se fija igualmente la red protectora, cuya manipulación resulta complicada.Protection barriers are known against jellyfish based on a plurality of networks, which are associated with lines of marine signaling buoys, which although they comply satisfactorily with the function for which they have been planned, its implantation and extraction are extremely complex when be the aforementioned buoys associated with a weight of considerable weight, to which the protective net is also fixed, whose manipulation It is complicated.

Description of the invention

La barrera de protección frente a medusas que la invención propone resuelve de manera plenamente satisfactoria la problemática anteriormente expuesta, merced a una estructuración fácil de implantar y extraer.The jellyfish protection barrier that the proposed invention resolves in a fully satisfactory manner the problematic previously exposed, thanks to a structuring Easy to implant and extract.

Para ello, y de forma mas concreta, se ha previsto que en la barrera de la invención participen una pluralidad de boyas relacionadas entre sí mediante los correspondientes tirantes, a los que se asocia una red con unas dimensiones tales que impidan el paso de las medusas a su través, boyas que se dispondrán formando una "U", cuyas ramas libres se estabilizan en la playa mediante los correspondientes tirantes, mientras que inferiormente a cada una de dichas se establece un cable o cadena al que se fija igualmente la citada red, cable o cadena que se remata inferiormente en una placa, de menor peso que un lastre convencional, destinada a enterrarse bajo la arena, por la propia acción de la marea, constituyendo un elemento estabilizador de la barrera.To do this, and more specifically, it has been provided that in the barrier of the invention participate a plurality of buoys related to each other by corresponding braces, to which a network is associated with some dimensions such as to prevent the jellyfish from passing through it, buoys that will be arranged forming a "U", whose free branches are stabilize on the beach through the corresponding braces, while inferior to each one of said ones a cable or chain to which the aforementioned network, cable or chain that is topped off on a plate, of lower weight than a conventional ballast, destined to be buried under the sand, by the tidal action itself, constituting an element barrier stabilizer.

Si bien la implantación de la barrera resulta sumamente sencilla merced a la estructuración anteriormente descrita, la extracción de la misma podría resultar complicada, debido al enterramiento de las citadas placas, por lo que se ha previsto que las mismas se relacionen entre sí mediante un cable o cadena inferior, al que estará asociada igualmente el borde inferior de la citada red de protección, de manera que mediante el traccionado de dicha cadena, se producirá un fácil desenterramiento de las comentadas placas, facilitando la recogida del conjunto de la barrera cuando ésta no sea necesaria, tirando de un único elemento.While the implementation of the barrier results extremely simple thanks to the structuring above described, the extraction of it could be complicated, due to the burial of the aforementioned plates, so it has been provided that they relate to each other using a cable or lower chain, to which the lower edge will also be associated of said protection network, so that through the pulled from said chain, easy digging will occur of the mentioned plates, facilitating the collection of the set of the barrier when it is not necessary, pulling a single element.

Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

A la vista de las figuras reseñadas puede observarse como la barrera de protección que la invención propone está constituida a partir de una red (1) cuyo entramado será tal que impida el paso a su través de las medusas. Dicha red se dispondrá preferentemente formando una especie de "U", de embocadura orientada hacia la zona de acceso para bañistas situada en la playa (2), constituyendo una barrera perimetral para dicha zona.In view of the figures outlined you can be observed as the protective barrier that the invention proposes it is constituted from a network (1) whose network will be such that prevents the passage through the jellyfish. That network is will preferably have a kind of "U", of mouth facing the access area for bathers located on the beach (2), constituting a perimeter barrier for said zone.

Al borde superior de la citada red se fijará una cadena o cable (3) mediante la cual se relaciona con una serie de boyas (4), cuya flotación estabilizará el perímetro superior de la red con respecto al nivel del agua, impidiendo el paso de las comentadas medusas, rematándose dicha cadena (3) por sus extremos en sendas argollas (5) a la que se fijan los correspondientes tirantes (6), destinados a enclavarse en la playa (2) a través de las correspondientes estacas (7) o elementos equivalentes de que se traten.To the upper edge of the aforementioned network, a chain or cable (3) by which it relates to a series of buoys (4), whose flotation will stabilize the upper perimeter of the network with respect to the water level, preventing the passage of commented jellyfish, finishing off said chain (3) by its ends in each ring (5) to which the corresponding ones are fixed braces (6), intended to be interlocked on the beach (2) through the corresponding stakes (7) or equivalent elements of which try.

Inferiormente a cada boya, y fijándose verticalmente a la red (1) se establecen una serie de cadenas o cables (8), de longitud acorde con la altura de la citada red (1), a cuyo extremo inferior se fijan respectivas placas (9), de naturaleza metálica, que en el ejemplo de realización práctica elegido adoptan una configuración rectangular, pero que podrían adoptar otras configuraciones muy diversas sin afectar a la esencia de la invención, placas (9) que tenderán a enclavarse en el fondo (10) del mar por el propio efecto de la marea, y que constituyen los elementos estabilizadores del perímetro inferior de la red (1).Bottom to each buoy, and looking vertically to the network (1) a series of chains are established or cables (8), of length according to the height of said network (1), at whose lower end respective plates (9) are fixed, of metallic nature, which in the practical embodiment example chosen adopt a rectangular configuration, but they could adopt other very different configurations without affecting the essence of the invention, plates (9) that will tend to engage in the bottom (10) from the sea due to the tidal effect itself, and which constitute the stabilizing elements of the lower perimeter of the network (one).

En dicho perímetro inferior se establecerá una cadena o cable (11) asociado tanto a la red (1) como a las diversas placas (9), de manera que mediante el traccionado de la misma, se consigue desenclavar de una manera sencilla las citadas placas (9) del fondo del mar, permitiendo una fácil recogida del conjunto cuando éste no sea necesario, de manera que para dichas labores de recogida no es necesario el empleo de grandes embarcaciones, sino que con una simple lancha se puede llevar a cabo dicha tarea.In said lower perimeter a chain or cable (11) associated with both the network (1) and the various plates (9), so that by pulling it, it it manages to unblock the mentioned plates in a simple way (9) from the bottom of the sea, allowing easy collection of the whole when this is not necessary, so that for these tasks of collection is not necessary the use of large vessels, but that with a simple boat you can carry out this task.
