Abstract

The pivoted (12) rigging is to carry multiple sails on a windsurfing board (1). A wishbone is mounted in front of the mast and there is a front sail (10) and a jib. It is also possible to carry a fixed outrigger and to use a spinnaker type sail. A movable tension rope (11) helps to hold the mast and is fixed to the end (14) of the wishbone (3) and mast foot (2). The mast is in two parts and the sails are fixed to it by booms (3), also forming the wishbone.

Description

Gréement pivotant à voiles multiples pour planches à voile. Swivel rigging with multiple sails for sailboards.

La présente invention concerne le gréement des planches à voile. Dans les dispositifs connus de ce genre, les planches sont propulsées au moyen d'une toile triangulaire tendue et orientée à l'aide d'une bôme constituée par deux vergues de forme courbe couramment appelée "Wishbone". L'ensemble du gréement est supporté par un mât articulé à sa base et pouvant prendre toutes les inclinaisons. Le choix de la surface de la voile qui détermine la vitesse demarche de la planche ne peut être modifié en cours de navigation. Par ailleurs, il y a impossibilité à envoyer des voiles d'avant permettant d'augmenter la surface vélique aux allures portantes, voile du type spinnaker. The present invention relates to the rigging of windsurfers. In known devices of this kind, the boards are propelled by means of a triangular canvas stretched and oriented using a boom constituted by two yards of curved shape commonly called "Wishbone". The whole rigging is supported by a mast articulated at its base and able to take any inclination. The choice of sail area which determines the speed of the board cannot be changed during navigation. In addition, there is an impossibility to send front sails allowing to increase the sailing surface of the bearing gaits, sail of the spinnaker type.

Le gréement selon l'invention permet de remédier à ces inconvénients. I1 permet d'une part d'avoir un gréement se composant d'une grande voile et d'un foc, ce qui permet en fonction de la force du vent, de réduire la surface de voile en affalant le foc ; d'autre part d'avoir la possibilité d'envoyer une voile d'allure portante du type spinnaker. The rigging according to the invention overcomes these drawbacks. I1 allows on the one hand to have a rigging consisting of a large sail and a jib, which allows depending on the force of the wind, to reduce the sail area by lowering the jib; on the other hand to have the possibility of sending a bearing sail of the spinnaker type.

Pour pouvoir envoyer une voile d'avant du type foc, il est necessaire d'avoir un point d'amure. Pour pouvoir envoyer une voile de type spinnaker, il est necessaire d'avoir un espar servant de tangon. To be able to send a headsail of the jib type, it is necessary to have a tack point. To be able to send a spinnaker type sail, it is necessary to have a spar serving as a pole.

L'invention consiste à prolonger le wishbone en avant du mât, la partie antérieure du wishbone constituera un point d'amure pour le foc et servira de tangon pour envoyer un spinnaker. The invention consists in extending the wishbone in front of the mast, the front part of the wishbone will constitute a tack for the jib and will serve as a pole to send a spinnaker.

La figure 1 est une vue latérale d'une planche à voile équipée d'un gréement selon l'invention. Figure 1 is a side view of a windsurf board equipped with a rig according to the invention.

La figure 2 est une coupe horizontale selon la ligne A A de la figure 1, représentant le wishbone prolongé. Figure 2 is a horizontal section along line A A of Figure 1, showing the extended wishbone.

La figure 3 représente à plus grande échelle un détail de la figure 2. FIG. 3 shows a detail of FIG. 2 on a larger scale.

La figure 4 représente le même détail de la figure 2 que la figure 3 mais selon une coupe verticale. Figure 4 shows the same detail in Figure 2 as Figure 3 but in a vertical section.

La figure 5 représente à plus grande échelle un détail de la figure 1, la tête du mât et sa flèche. Figure 5 shows on a larger scale a detail of Figure 1, the head of the mast and its arrow.

Un mât 2 est monté pivotant et inclinable dans toutes les directions au moyen d'un joint classique 12, sur la planche à voile 1. Ce mât est démontable pour faciliter son transport. I1 se décompose en deux parties. La première comprenant la base 2 avec le joint 12 et un épaulement en couronne 8 en sa partie supérieure. La deuxième comprend le corps 4 et la flèche 9. La flèche 9 se termine par un anneau 13 sur lequel est fixé un cable tenseur ou "hauban" 6, qui peut être relié par l'intermédiaire d'un palan à un pontet 7 à l'arrière de la planche pour aider à la retenue du mât aux allures portantes, en fonction de la puissance du vent.  A mast 2 is pivotally mounted and tiltable in all directions by means of a conventional joint 12, on the windsurf board 1. This mast is removable for easy transport. It is broken down into two parts. The first comprising the base 2 with the seal 12 and a crown shoulder 8 in its upper part. The second includes the body 4 and the arrow 9. The arrow 9 ends with a ring 13 on which is fixed a tensor cable or "guy" 6, which can be connected by means of a hoist to a trigger guard 7 at the back of the board to help hold the mast at a bearing pace, depending on the power of the wind.

Le cable tenseur, quand il n'est pas fixé au pontet 7, setrouve bloqué dans un taquet coinceur à la base du mât 2. L'anneau 13 en tête de la flèche 9 sert aussi à fixer deux réas. L'un des réas sera utilisé pour le passage d'une drisse 10 permettant de hisser un foc dont le point d'amure sera l'extrémité 14 du wishbone 3. L'autre extrémité de la drisse 10 sera bloquée dans un taquet coinceur à la base du mât 2. le deuxième réa fixé à l'anneau 13, servira au passage d'unodrisse pour un spinnaker ; drisse qui sera reliée à un taquet coinceur à la base du mât 2. The tensor cable, when it is not fixed to the trigger guard 7, is found blocked in a cleat at the base of the mast 2. The ring 13 at the head of the arrow 9 also serves to fix two sheaves. One of the sheaves will be used for the passage of a halyard 10 making it possible to hoist a jib whose tack point will be the end 14 of the wishbone 3. The other end of the halyard 10 will be locked in a cleat the base of the mast 2. the second sheave attached to the ring 13, will be used for the passage of a single runner for a spinnaker; Halyard which will be connected to a cleat at the base of the mast 2.

Le wishbone 3 figure 1 reposera sur l'épaulement en couronne 8 et sera brêlé à celui-ci de façon à pouvoir tourner autour du mât mais ne pas remonter le long de celui-ci. The wishbone 3 in FIG. 1 will rest on the crown shoulder 8 and will be burnt to the latter so as to be able to turn around the mast but not to go up along it.

Un cable tenseur 11 sera fixé à l'extrémité 14 du wishbone 3 et au pied du mât 2. I1 servira à positionner le point d'amure 14 quand on hissera une voile d'avant. A tensor cable 11 will be fixed to the end 14 of the wishbone 3 and at the foot of the mast 2. I1 will be used to position the tack 14 when a front sail is hoisted.

Sur le mât 2, est fixée une voile 5 dont la ralingue est constituée dans ce but par un gousset 15. Le gousset 15 se termine à la têtière par un oeillet 22 figure 5 permettant le passage de la flèche 9 du mât. la voile 5 est échancrée en 16 figure 1 à la hauteur de la couronne 8 pour le passage du wishbone 3. On the mast 2, is fixed a sail 5 whose rope is formed for this purpose by a gusset 15. The gusset 15 ends at the headrest by an eyelet 22 in Figure 5 allowing the passage of the arrow 9 of the mast. the sail 5 is notched in 16 FIG. 1 at the height of the crown 8 for the passage of the wishbone 3.

Le wishbone 3 figure 2 est constitué par deux vergues 17 et 18 à double courbures se croisant en 19 et formant un huit allongé. Ces deux vergues sont reliéés en leurs extrémitées 14 et 20 par des attaches percées servant de points d'amures, et en leur point de croisement 19, par une goupille 21. les 3 points 14, 19 et 20 des vergues formant le wishbone ne seront pas sur une même ligne droite dans le plan horizontale. Le point 19 étant plus haut que les deux autres. Les attaches percées 14 et 20 figure 2 serviront au passage d'écoutes de foc ou de bras de spinnaker qui pourront être immobilisés par 4 taquets coin at' cura'23, 24, 25 et 26 situés de part et d'autre arrière du wishbone. The wishbone 3 in FIG. 2 is constituted by two yards 17 and 18 with double curvatures crossing at 19 and forming an elongated eight. These two yards are connected at their ends 14 and 20 by pierced fasteners serving as tack points, and at their crossing point 19, by a pin 21. the 3 points 14, 19 and 20 of the yards forming the wishbone will not be not on the same straight line in the horizontal plane. Point 19 is higher than the other two. The fasteners drilled 14 and 20 in figure 2 will be used for the passage of jib sheets or spinnaker arms which can be immobilized by 4 corner cleats at 'cura'23, 24, 25 and 26 located on either side of the rear of the wishbone .

Le dispositif objet de l'invention peut être adapté sur tous les types de planches à voiles existant actuellement sur le marché, sous réserve de petites modificatiuons. The device which is the subject of the invention can be adapted to all types of sailboards currently existing on the market, subject to small modifications.

I1 peut aussi permettre d'équiper des planches de dimensions supérieures manoeuvrables par plusieurs équipiers.  I1 can also be used to equip boards with larger dimensions that can be operated by several team members.
