Abstract

Improvements in tensioning devices of anchoring lines, fixed to a marine facility of positive buoyancy by means of fasteners of anchoring lines, in relation to the anchoring lines are associated winch means, characterized because the anchoring lines they are arranged in groups comprising each at least one pair of anchor lines oriented in two opposite directions and located in the same vertical plane called the plane of the pair of lines, the planes of the pairs of lines of the same group being parallel to each other and admitting a plane of symmetry called an anchoring plane, these anchoring planes forming parts of a bundle of planes that accept a common line, called the axis of the anchoring planes, because it comprises two winch means, including each one of the winch means at least one would fit, each goat being provided with means for securing a removable joint with a line of anchors and it can be disconnectable to drive means, and admits a plane of symmetry called a winch plane, the winch planes of the winches being of the same winch means parallel to each other and admitting a plane of symmetry called plane of symmetry of the means of winch, the two winch means being arranged in such a way that the planes of symmetry of the winch means are confused in a common plane of symmetry, the winch means being supported by a rigid carriage provided with means for orienting the carriage around a winch. Axis of orientation belonging to said common plane of symmetry, and because the axis of orientation of the carriage is confused with the axis of the planes of anchoring.
